However, the repetition of the question prompted me to see if it can be done with Eudora. It can: Eudora has the feature of allowing the insertion of ExtraHeaders in every message. Edit eudora.ini and add the line: ExtraHeaders=Resent-From: you@yourISP\r\nResent-To: your_list@where_it_is below the [Settings] line. Now when you get a message for approval, use Eudora's "Redirect" (or better, "Redirect-to" to avoid having to type in the list address). You can then edit the message as desired and Eudora will not alter the "From: ..." line. When the message is sent to LISTSERV it will be sent directly to the list without sending it back to you for a second approval step, and it will appear to have come directly from the original poster. You obviously don't want these extra headers to be added except when you are acting as list editor -- forgetting to turn them off would be an excellent way to send personal mail to the list -- so you need a way to turn the feature on and off. One way to do that is to copy the original eudora.ini to mylist.ini, edit mylist.ini and insert the line above so the file looks like: [Settings] ExtraHeaders=Resent-From: you@yourISP\r\nResent-To: your_list@where_it_is . . . Then make an icon for the list version of Eudora and set the properties so Eudora uses mylist.ini instead of eudora.ini. Click on the shortcut tab of the eudora properties and edit the line to the right of "Target" to read: C:\eudora\eudora.exe c:\eudora\mylist.ini (alter the drive and path to suit your installation) If you have multiple lists, you can make a Eudora icon for each and mylist1.ini, mylist2.ini,... files with the appropriate ExtraHeaders line for each. Using alternate *.ini files is documented in Help, as is ExtraHeaders. Hope this helps, -rex
