Thank you Michael.  I know it was a long shot but my thought was that ListServ would recognize the sender as Owner and that would take precedence but thinking over it now, I know you are correct.

No, neither of these will work.  In this case the anti-spam behaviour is triggered due to duplicate text that LISTSERV spots by comparing text strings at the top of the message body.  Management of email addresses is a completely separate mechanism and has no effect in the situation.



Your list Owner only has two options, which you've already offered them:



  1. Make the first lines of text functionally unique for each message.

  2. Use super/sub-lists.



The latter option is the only officially supported method for posting the same message to multiple LISTSERV lists.
