Any ideas? > This is by design and is documented. From the LISTSERV Keywords page online <http://www.lsoft.com/manuals/1.8e/sitemgr/listkeyw.html#kSend>: "When the "Confirm" option is enabled on a moderated list (for instance, Send=Editor,Confirm), mail sent by any editor or moderator requires confirmation by that editor or moderator. This is to prevent a user from forging mail to the list under an editor's or moderator's return address. [...] * Send= Editor,Hold,Confirm This allows you to "OK" both subscriber submissions and editor/moderator approvals, as described above." -- Regards, Michael Shannon Senior Consultant, Asia Pacific Region [log in to unmask] L-Soft international, Inc. http://www.lsoft.com Chazzozz!!
