Is there a way to prevent a particular id from SUBSCRIBING? The list is Subscription= Open,Confirm (changing it to By Owner is not an option). It's not that the user's posts are bad, it's that his address is unreliable. I *frequently* get the 'too many hops message' from his server (it's set to 17). I have unsubscribed him, set him to Digest, and even set him to NoMail (hoping that he wouldn't know he is subscribed), but he is a fairly sharp person and always seems to be able to set his options back to the way he likes them. I would like to simply prevent him from subscribing at all, without affecting everyone else on the list. Is this possible? From what I can tell, the Filter tag only prevents their posts, not their subscriptions. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Chris Barnes (409) 846-3273 (home) [log in to unmask] (409) 845-8300 (work) http://helper.tamu.edu/STAFF/cbarnes/ "The Wizard of VM" - The Battalion, Sept. 12, 1996
