Well, Jim's model is the "old model", aka "kludge".  It works and is 
best for versions 1.8e and below.  If you go with it on 14.3 and above, 
you lose the ability to place a subscriber on review.

For modern versions of Listserv (v14.3 and above), you may find the 
"nonmember" configuration keyword interesting and useful.  For example,

    send= public,confirm,non-member
    default-options= Review
    editor= email@domain


This causes non-member posts to be first confirmed by the sender and 
then moderated.  In fact, members are moderated until their 
subscriptions are (manually) set to "noreview".   I cannot say why LSoft 
decided to not support the model of a private list with others able to 
post via confirmation and moderation; I would have liked that option.

(This topic perhaps better belongs on the LSTOWN-L rather than LSTSRV-L 
list).

cheers, wayne
