It's not often that simple. Sometimes people will cross post or Cc: non list members, and then a non-member replies to all including your list. What I do on lists I moderate is I never approve non-member posts, but sometimes, if a post is relevant, I will forward the message from the "held message" notice to the list. I may edit the forwarded message. If I think it is important that the sender know her message went to the list, I Cc: her on the forward, and depending on circumstances, I may add a Reply-To: to the sender. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
