Whats wrong? } } The new "Non-Member" option allows (under certain circumstances) non- } members to post messages to the list as long as they Confirm the message. } At the same time you have subscribers set to Review. } Yes this (so far) keeps spammers messages from reaching the list and the } Moderator's mail box. However, I can post to your list right now! } } With Send= Editor, all mail addressed to the list goes to the Moderator } for inspection. To eliminate non-member spam going to the Moderator, set } this: Send= Private (or Private,Confirm) } } Now set all Subscribers to REVIEW (if that's what you want) } QUIET set listname REVIEW for *@* } } Now spam (non-member) posts will be rejected outright and all member posts } will go to the moderator. If you have complaint members, set them to } NOREVIEW and allow them to post freely. The use of REVIEW has 2 sides: 1) All new subscribers are on review. After seeing a post or three, they are set to NOREVIEW. 2) A misbehaving subscriber will be set to review until they promise to be good. (Cuts down on the flame wars.) } Since this is a beta version, you should take threads like this to the } support list designated by your particular hosting service. I see you } already have a few confused :-) Well, Lsoft (Apple) is my hosting service..... -- Rich Greenberg N6LRT Marietta, GA, USA richgr atsign panix.com + 1 770 321 6507 Eastern time zone.
