Couple of things I noticed:
8.8.1.2, 2nd paragraph, last sentence: "itand" should be "and it"
C, 215: you show "LIST" as a valid command. Unless I missed it, we no
longer document "LIST" as a shortcut to "LIST ACTIVE *". Are you using
this as a way to capture the extensions to LIST? In that case maybe it
would make more sense to just have "LIST" and nothing else, since this
will include "LIST ACTIVE", "LIST HEADERS", etc.
D.[1-4], MODE READER interaction: I think Russ had agreed to changing
the text to read:
"On servers that require the use of the MODE READER command, the
LISTGROUP command can only be used after the MODE READER command."
