I didn't address this directly in my first reply, but the answer is No. No matter how topics are defined, any user who doesn't want to receive all posts must be subscribed to at least one topic. The default user receives all posts which is I think what most lists want. What you are asking is not really for everyone else to be left alone. You are asking for the ability to passively exclude users from receiving certain messages by putting those messages in a topic. I don't think this is fair to the users in general. I think it is up to the user to actively choose not to receive all messages. I realize your situation may be different, but instead of trying to set up the users, you could just post instructions to the list and let each user set herself up as she desires. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
