Each address in the list corresponds to a fair share.

For compatibility with older >versions, if no "Moderator=" keyword is present, LISTSERV uses the first >address from the "Editor=" keyword. I have 1 quick question about this. I own a list where I want to use *both* the Editor and Moderator keywords. Why? Because there are 3 groups of people: a) people whom I don't know whose posts must be looked at b) moderators who will look at group (a)'s posts to approve/reject c) people who are trusted to post appropriate things, but who are not moderator's. Would I set this up as: * Send= Editor * Editor = (listname of group "c" people) * Moderator = (listname of group "b" people) From the test above, I assume that the folks in the moderator list would do not have to be in the editor list since Listserv automagically includes them? ------------------------------------------------------------------ Chris Barnes (409) 846-3273 (home) [log in to unmask] (409) 845-9520 (work) http://tamvm1.tamu.edu/~cbarnes/ Money can't buy happiness; but neither can poverty.
