You want to set the following header >items: > >* Send= editor >* Editor= [log in to unmask] (Your Name) This is, as I understand it, the correct way to set it up minimally, but it will do nothing to prevent people from spoofing your e-mail address and sending things to listserv as if it came from you. Better would be: * Send= editor, hold, confirm * Editor= [log in to unmask] (Your Name) This way, you must approve even your own posts to prevent such occurrences from ever occuring. You may also need a LISTSERV password as well, but I'm not sure about this. Glenn Alperin
