Thanks for the reply Rich,

So, the listname as editor "did" work in the previous release? From what I
found in the 1.8d and 1.8e documentation, this was not supposed to work as
it would override the review subscriber option setting. Another list owner
acutally brought this up and also said this used to work before we upgraded
to 14.3, but I didn't believe him.

The problem with your configuration is that non-subscribers won't be able to
post and we want to allow non-subscribers to post, but to moderate them.

thanks,
-Brian
