I am not sure if it will properly 'bounce' or resend msgs. As the msg indicates, for this to work, your mailer must generate proper 'Resent-... ' header lines while keeping the original header lines intact. You need to consult the Pegasus documentation to see if this is true. If it doesn't, or you want a simpler method, change your list header to Send= Editor, Hold Then LISTSERV will still send msgs to you for approval (as editor) but all you have to do to approve the msg is send back a one-line message with the word 'OK' (and the Subject: line unchanged because it has a magic 'cookie' number in it). This means you don't have to have a special mail program. > Nothing gets distributed either. How do you know? You have no default options set, your own options should be either Set <listname> ack or Set <listname> repro, so you will see that the msg has been processed to the list. If you don't, you can't tell whether or not it goes to the list. >... is there a history log You are set for no digest and no archives so no, there is no log. There is a log but it is accessible only to the List Maintainer at Lsoft, as it is only for troubleshooting purposes. -- ________________________________________________________________________ Ben Parker ............
