Update of bug #59954 (project wget):

                  Status:                    None => Inspected              
             Assigned to:                    None => rockdaboot

Follow-up Comment #1:

Wget always tries 'LIST -a' first. If the server returns an error, wget tries
'LIST' as a fallback.

In your case, the server indicates an OK (226 Transfer complete) and puts a
custom message as payload. This is good to be parsed by a human, but not by a
program that relies on proper success/error codes.

IMO, this is clearly a server issue and should be reported there.
