So, regular members can post freely, but if the admin posts, he/she needs to approve their own post. If the admin is a regular poster he/she could create a forwarder of some type, and only list the forwarder as the admin (and moderate it), then subscribe to the list with their regular address and make that unmoderated. This way, they can post with their primary email address, but also receive any administrative emails. Hope this makes sense. - Scott ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [email protected] https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
