Hello,

Here is the situation:
The list in question is a news distribution list with editors set to be
able to distribute directly to the list. However, anyone can fake the From:
line and recently have been distributed few fake message.

At this point the list is set as:
Send=Editor,Hold
Validate=No
With this editors send messages directly to the list without my approval,
while messages from non-editors and those under review come to me for
approval.

Now, can I set up the list such that editors will be request to "OK" their
own posting (without my approval) ?
How about this:
Send=Editor,Hold
Validate=Yes,Confirm (or Validate=Yes)
Will that make the editors to confirm their own postings with "OK"? How
about those under review? Will the above mean that even those under review
will have to confirm their postings and then come to me for approval? If
this works it will be great....

Any comments and help is greatly appreciated.

later,
Mentor
