I have a list that 1 of 2 moderators review any messages from person's that have been placed on review for one reason or another, but not the messages of people not on review. MESSAGES OF PEOPLE NOT ON REVIEW GO STRAIGHT TO THE LIST. We just went to 2 moderators and want BOTH moderators to get ALL the messages to OK, instead of the load being split between the two. (I just noticed this in the manual under appendix B and did not realize this was happening) I assume I need to add "ALL" to the "moderator=" line so it would be moderator= all, address1, address2 Is this correct? My next question is this. Is their a way that I can fix the header where when one moderator OK's a message, and the other OK's the same message but makes a change to the message, that the 2 messages will not be duplicated on the list. (Both sent to the list) This is mentioned under the discussion of the "moderator=" line and they recommend setting a line as "send=editor, HOLD". However my send line is "Send=Private" right now and I do not want to go to "send=editor", I assume. Can I set mine to "send=private, HOld" and accomplish this or is this an invalid command? Is my thinking correct on this. Thanks for the help and thanks to Ben Parker for the last suggestion, which is working. But I just noticed this thing about the load being split between the moderators and I do not what that, nor do I want double postings between the 2 moderators. Our present header is PUT ******** LIST PW=XXXXXXXX * * * SUBSCRIPTION= OPEN,CONFIRM * SEND= PRIVATE * REVIEW= OWNER * NOTIFY= NO * REPLY-TO= LIST,RESPECT * FILES= NO * STATS= NORMAL,OWNER * RENEWAL= MONTHLY,PROBE * AUTO-DELETE= YES,FULL-AUTO,DELAY(1),MAX(10) * MAIL-VIA= DISTRIBUTE * ACK= NO * DEFAULT-OPTIONS= REPRO,REVIEW * CONFIDENTIAL= NO * ERRORS-TO= ***@***.COM * NOTEBOOK= YES,E,WEEKLY,PRIVATE * DIGEST= YES,SAME,DAILY,12:00 * DAILY-THRESHOLD= 100 * MODERATOR= #1, #2 * FILTER= ALSO, *** * * OWNER= *** * OWNER= *** * OWNER= *** * OWNER= *** * OWNER= *** * OWNER= *** * OWNER= *** * EDITOR= #1 * EDITOR= #2 * --------------- The Moderator section of Appendix B ---------- Moderator= <netaddress1>,<netaddress2>.... This keyword defines which editors of a moderated list receive postings for forwarding to the list. The default is the first editor as defined by the "Editor=" keyword. If multiple moderators are defined, the load is spread ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ across them. ^^^^^^^^^^^^ Note that all editors may still post directly to the list, but only those editors defined by "Moderator=" will have messages from non-editors forwarded to them. Beginning with 1.8c, if the parameter "All" is coded before the list of moderator addresses, LISTSERV will send copies of all postings to all moderators, any of whom may approve the message. An example of this would be * Moderator= All,[log in to unmask],[log in to unmask] ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Note that this could also be coded as: * Moderator= All,[log in to unmask] * Moderator= [log in to unmask] Assuming "Send= Editor, Hold", once a message is approved by one ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ of the moderators, any other moderator attempting to approve the same message will be told that an identical message has already been posted to the list. If "Send= Editor" (e.g., without "Hold"), please note that if a note is appended or prepended to the edited post, or if the body of the post itself is edited (that is to say, if the body of the approved message is changed), duplicates are possible. Thus it is important that the moderators of any list set up this way pay close attention to whether or not the posting has already been approved by another moderator. ---------------------- -- Bill Harrison [log in to unmask]
