I moderate theory net via LISTSERV at NDSUVM1 and at DEARN. I have about 30 local redistribution lists at various sites (usually when I have about 10 subscribers at one location, I ask someone to set up a redistribution list -- some were requested that way). Is there some mechanism in LISTSERV that would allow the following (my example is from MIT): someone at MIT wants to subscribe. If they send me mail directly I usually forward it to the person responsible for the MIT list. However, once in a while they will send mail to listserv with a SIGNUP request. At that point I usually forward their request manually to MIT, and when I have acknowledgement that they have been added there I delete them from the list. Could there be some way of setting up something on listserv that would cactch all requests from some node ending in .MIT.EDU (for example), and forwarding it to the local moderator (whose address would, of course, need to be supplied). If the local list is managed by another listserv (I have about 6 or 7 of those) this could even be completely automatic.
