I thought about changing the default mailforms to request the intro from the potential subscriber, but there is a problem - the only applicable mailform is intended for the owner of a private list, and the person requesting subscription receives just its copy. Is there some way to send different texts to the owner and to the subscriber, or at least to reverse the situation - mailing to the subscriber with the copy to the owner? >ACADV also provides some nice help files.
