Yes I've been using it for a few years now. It used to be called "listar" but apparently there was some dispute over that name. My favourite feature is the quote enforcement. You can set various parameters to discourage Outlook-style quoting. This has been very effective in training some of the list members who are guilty of such infractions. Its moderation method is the simplest of any list manager I've yet seen. If you want to approve the post, unchanged, you just bounce it to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" and it goes through to the list. The unique "cookie wrapper" around the moderated list means it can't get posted more than once, so you can have multiple moderators without them stepping on each others' toes. Mailman does the same thing in a different way but you have to switch between mail client and web browser, which isn't optimal. -- Rev Simon Rumble <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> www.rumble.net Send email with subject "send key pub" for public key.
