> Is there a way to prevent unknow users or users within the list from posting to > this list? Probably the easiest way would be to change your default options to: * Default-Options= Review, Nopost This prevents all subscribers from posting to the list. You may also try setting Send= to contain a literal email address: *Send= [log in to unmask], Hold, Confirm and also adding that email address to an Editor= keyword to trap any wayward mail that manages to get in. I'm not 100% sure but you might also be able to put Send= Private to ensure no outside posters can get mail onto the list. I haven't tried that in combination with the other settings. Finally, if you plan to implement something like this, make sure you hide *any* keyword that contains an email address within a .HH ON and .HH OFF block to prevent anyone from viewing it and attempting to spoof an email from that address. Example: * XXX Distribution List * Errors-To= Owner * Subscription= Open * Review= Owner * Default-Options= Review, Nopost * Ack= No * Validate= No * Auto-Delete= Yes,Full-Auto,Delay(5),Probe(30) HH ON * Owner= [log in to unmask] * Editor= [log in to unmask] * Send= [log in to unmask],Hold,Confirm -- Chazzozz!!
