It might be easier if you just told us exactly what happens when a post is sent to the umbrella list and exactly what privacy options you have set. Note the following: A post to the umbrella must come from a member of the umbrella list or someone in accept_these_nonmembers of the umbrella (see <http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1220144&group_id=103&atid=300103> for a way to include the members of the sub lists) or default_nonmember_action for the umbrella must be accept (or at least not reject or discard). Similar considerations apply to the sub-lists with respect to the address the sub-list will determine sent the post. The umbrella should be in acceptable_aliases of the sub-lists or they should have require_explicit_destination set to No. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
