After you have subscribed that, you can go onto the options page and turn off mail delivery for that address. eg: If your subscription address is: myname-freebsd-hackers@biteme.com but you normally post to the lists as 'myname@biteme.com', then you will need to *also* subscribe 'myname@biteme.com' and set its delivery options to 'no mail'. Your inbound email will come in as usual to your list address and the mailing list software will allow your normal address to post as well. Sorry for the hassle, but things have just got too damn silly lately. Regardless of the sender filter, you should do this anyway because the spam filter gives a special bonus to subscribers and is especially harsh on non-subscribers. While I'm here, we could use a bit of help with the list moderation functions. If there are regular readers with some spare time on their hands who would like to help, please let me know. The moderator interface to the queue is web form based, point-and-shoot, and easy to operate. It would be an excellent thing for folks who are looking for a way to contribute but don't have the technical expertise. -- Peter Wemm - peter@wemm.org; peter@FreeBSD.org; peter@yahoo-inc.com "All of this is for nothing if we don't go to the stars" - JMS/B5
