Correct ... I just created two files ... 'whitelist' is manually
maintained and 'confirmed' uses CONFIRM_APPEND

Yes

Yes, that is what I want to do.

I'm not thinking of someone mailing to 20 at a time.

someone sends a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] today ... and confirms. I want it
to be CONFIRM_APPENDed to a globally-shared 'confirmed' file.

tomorrow they send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ... no confirmation is
necessary because they are now whitelisted in the shared 'confirmed' file.

But the problem is that I am concerned about multiple processes writing to
the shared 'confirmed' file ....
