Yes, a 'REVIEW' of the 'POLITICS@VILLVM' list shows: * Subscription= Open,Confirm * Filter= ... *postmast*@*, ... * Filter= ... *POSTMAST*@* Note that LISTSERV's filter is *NOT* "case-sensitive". Therefore, you don't need to list both the above patterns. If the filter was case-sensitive, then the IDs 'Postmaster' and 'PostMaster' wouldn't be filtered. :-) >I'm the send-editor. * Send= Editor * Editor= [log in to unmask], (Politics) Note that the "blank" after the "comma" causes the string '(Politics)' to be interpreted as a "comment", rather than as an active part of your list-definition. Is that what you intended? >PS. by the way, I tried to get onto the spam list, but the server >refused all my attempts to confirm. I wonder if people have the same >problem with my list? I had no such problem. Did you save a copy of the "please OK this" posting, and a copy of your "OK" reply, and a copy of the "refusal" message? Care to "share" those messages?
