I also would like to see this feature. I am not a fan of banners, but would
immediately implement them on all of my lists if this feature exists. And
if finding all rotating banners was too difficult for the software I
wouldn't care, as I would then implement a fixed banner, just to get this
feature.

I also would like the wording of the rejection to be in the mailtpl, so I
have control over the wording.

As long as we are on wish list items I have plenty more. A selected few:

- reject posts with blank subject fields

- reject posts with subject fields with "<listname> DIGEST - " in them

- review parameter for Sizelim= setting. Now it tells people how to chop up
the page and submit in pieces. I'd prefer it if large ones were sent to the
editor. And then either approved, or an explanation sent saying why it was
rejected. Often these are people that are quoting web pages, and only the
URL should be posted.

Don.
