Listowner folks,
 
Although Trish has tried twice, My head seems to be too hard to absorb this.
 
I am interested in allowing POSTS, not subscriptions, from anonymous
remailers. All anonymous remailers are okay with me, including the one at
<anon.penet.fi>, as long as they are posting to the list and not trying
to subscribe.  I even left the door open for non-subscribers to post,
intentionally. {Or at least I tried to.}

I don't have any anonymous subscribers, never did, and don't intend to
allow them.  But I do allow ANYONE to post, especially anonymous posters.
 
If one of my list members wanted to send an anonymous post, they wouldn't
need to be *subscribed* anonymously to be able to read my list and the
response to their anonymous post. I have had anonymous posts about very
personal matters, and it seems to allow more freedom of thought and
speech.  Hey, what if *I* want to send an anonymous post to my list?  I
think the advantages of anonymous privacy are possibly being given short
shrift here.
 
I'm sorry I was unclear, but I am still concerned that this filter =
Also, and FILTER_ALSO stuff seems to be removing the possibility of
anonymous POSTING along with the bathwater of anonymous subscribing.
 
I now assume the FILTER_ALSO at the listserv level (upstream from my puny
list) would try to prevent BOTH subscriptions and posting from wherever is
being filtered.
 
What still remains for someone to say is:  Will the list header keyword
 
Filter =Also,*@xxxxxx.xxx
 
try to prevent BOTH postings and subscriptions, or just one or the other?
 
I'm sure this demonstrates some logical fault or ignorance on my part, but
I don't know whether Filter =Also, goes after posts or subscriptions or
both, sorry. 8=]'
 
 Pax,  Dave
