Ok, I have a set of one-way announcements lists.  They each get posted to
at different times by different moderators (all lists have the one owner but
they are moderated by the person who handles the postings...each list has
it's own moderator).  They all use TOPICS (only two per list) and moderators
specify in the subject line of their messages which group should receive the
post.  Although the lists are different (by different I mean that the
announcements are about different topics depending on the list), they share
one common thing and that is the company they've been created for.  That
company wants the TO: line of all their lists to specify one email address.
I would suggest using a distribute job but unfortunately, they'd loose the
ability to take advantage of the list TOPICS.  And, postings to the lists
are handled by programs that are set up to automatically process the content
and create a message in the form of a post to send to the specified lists
and that would not be an easy thing to change in regard to changing the
format to a Distribute job.  Any suggestions in achieving this with the
current setup would be GREATLY appreciated.


Thanks,

Claude.
