} Question for you:  We have an announce-only list that has been secured with send=editor, hold, confirm to prevent posts from nasty folks who might spoof editor e-mail addresses.  Is it possible to send a message to a list secured in this way so that the authentication (or confirmation) and send operation are combined into one step?  The reason I ask is that we would like to post to this announce-only list using scripts to send e-mail at odd hours (read: before I want to get up to click OK).  So it would be great if I could code the script such that the message sent includes a password to authenticate the post so that it goes right though without the "OK" mechanism.

Any availability of a unix system that you could run procmail on?  It
could detect the approval request and reply with the OK.
