James,

You should send messages to the list directly.  When you start your 
question by hitting "reply" to a question about shell accounts, your 
message will be lumped under there in a lot of mail clients, and is less 
likely to be see.

I'm no IPF expert, but I'd wonder if "pass in log FIRST quick" is doing 
exactly what you describe correctly ...
