I have no problem on a similarly configured list, but *unfortunately*, LISTSERV sends me confirmation e-mail ... even though I am (or could be) authenticated via the LISTSERV web authentication. So, is it possible that your posters are simply not replying with "OK"? Maybe I've missed something, but I hope the next version of LISTSERV allows an authenticated post without e-mail interaction. > Are there any improvements I can make and how can I solve the web interface > problem for the owners.
