Just as an addenda, note that we (L-Soft) recommend that any list
running with "Send= Editor" should also include the ",Confirm"
option, i.e.
 
* Send= Editor,Hold,Confirm
 
This mandates an "OK" confirmation whenever the Editor posts to the
list, thereby putting yet another stumbling block in the way of
malicious users who may forge mail from the Editor address in order
to get around your security settings.  It will also help keep these
"reflected" error messages we've been seeing lately (where the remote
host "reflects" the bounced message back to the list with the original
"From:" line left intact) from being distributed to the list.
