Dear friends, What about Outlook 2000 (not Outlook Express), does it support the 'resent-from' mechanism for editing list postings?

This is fine unless the listowner wishes to edit submissions. Doing so with these settings will result in the post appearing to originate from the moderator instead of the author. The advantage of the "Resent-*" mechanism is that it allows editing submissions (trimming irrelevant quotes, adding topic keywords to the Subject, etc.) and the post still appears to originate from the author. If anyone is interested, there are details on setting a list up so that trusted posters can post directly to the list, while posts from non-subscribers and untrusted users go to the moderator (and can be edited while still appearing to come from the author) in the archives at: http://eva.dc.lsoft.com/archives/lstown-l.html Search for: Setting individual moderation (REVIEW) -rex
