No post will be gated to the newsgroup from the list that is not accepted by the list. Please read the page linked from Mail<->News gateways -> (Details for news_moderation) for a fuller description of these settings. Among other things you will see If the newsgroup is moderated, you can set this mailing list up to be the moderation address for the newsgroup. By selecting Moderated, an additional posting hold will be placed in the approval process. All messages posted to the mailing list will have to be approved before being sent on to the newsgroup, or to the mailing list membership. This is apparently what you set, but not what you want. I think you want None which means that any post accepted by the list will also be forwarded to the newsgroup, but without adding an Approved: header. In any event, non-member posts to the list will be dealt with according to *_these_nonmembers and generic_nonmember_action, and if they aren't accepted for the list, they will not be forwarded to the newsgroup. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
