It shouldn't be. The Urgent: header does one of two things. If the password is correct, it bypasses all the filters including nomail for any reason and makes the recipient list equal to all the list members, regular and digest.. If the password is not correct, it just sends the message back to you with the same subject and wrapped with another part that says Your urgent message to the <listname> mailing list was not authorized for delivery. The original message as received by Mailman is attached. Are you sure that's not what you received? >On a better note, I checked the headers and found that the password >doesn't appear ;-). Don't want my more savvy members checking things out >and discovering what they shouldn't ;-) That's right. The Urgent: header will be removed before the message is sent to the list members. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
