If you truly were quick enough to get the HOLD through first you can rewrite your list header. I've done that once. If your list is unmoderated should be all you need do is make it moderated and everything held will come to you for approval when you FREE the list, just delete the offending item. If you have a moderted or semi-moderated list you are going to need another address for Editor= ; you have to be very careful in this situation as it's easy to miss something you should have changed, which means it won't work the way you want it to work. > > If I released the list from HOLD with everyone (except me) set to NOMAIL, > will the post distribute only to me? You could do that, but when you reset everyone to MAIL all the people who were already NOMAIL will start getting mail and they may not be happy about it. Also, the item will go into the archives, if you have them, so to do a thorough job you'll have to edit the log. Douglas
