Because that's not the way to do it. Putting, e.g. nowhere-le...@lists.goingnowhere.org in regular_exclude_lists of nowhere-crew has no effect unless nowhere-le...@lists.goingnowhere.org is in a To: or Cc: header of the post to nowhere-crew. That is not the case here. To use sibling lists, what you want is to remove the two sublists as members of nowhere-crew and instead add them to regular_include_lists. This will then add the regular (non-digest) members of the sub-lists to the recipient list of the post to nowhere-crew, as long as the sub-lists are not addressed in To: or Cc: of the post. The caveat here is only regular members of the sublists will receive the post (if they aren't members of nowhere-crew). Digest members of the sub-lists who aren't members of nowhere-crew will not get the post at all. Also, people who are members of only a sub-list will receive the post from nowhere-crew, not from the list of which they are a member. This may or may not be a concern. The upside is no duplicates, and no worries about administrative messages/password reminders from nowhere-crew being posted to the sublists. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
