I don't think there is any completely fool-proof method. First, even if they "agree" to your (new) methodology, they can still lie, cheat, and steal (your time). My suggestion would be based more on the particulars rather than what you have posted. My suggetion might be as simple as: * SUBSCRIPTION= OPEN,CONFIRM * SEND= EDITOR * EDITOR= your_e-mail_address,(listname) * DEFAULT-OPTIONS= REVIEW Once new subscribers post in-accordance with your agreement, I'd set them to NOREVIEW. If they then have a change of heart, set them back to REVIEW. I'm sure Ben Parker will (or has previously in these discussions) given insights into how to construct appropriate Template forms. -- mailto:[log in to unmask] Tel: +1 814 863 1843 31 Shields Bldg; University Park, PA 16802-1202 USA (Please use my new e-mail address - no M/Frame mail)
