1) Email is not necessarily symmetrical e.g., you can subscriber from one
address and try to post from another -- this is problematic on private lists
2) the above message may mean
You are not subscribed to the LSTOWN-L list on this PEERED list host
i.e., on a peered list, subscriber options can not be set at a site that
does not contain your options.
