User jobin changed the following: What |Old value |New value ================================================================================ Status|NEW |STARTED -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Dec 1 04:44:09 -0800 2006 ------- This request seems useful in the context of our current lists, since a non-member posting to a list would not see any of the replies to his posting. I think it applies mostly to the behavior of 'discuss' lists whereby non-list-subscribers may post but with moderation. This is similar to the new 'trusted' discussion capability, except being trusted or not is independent of subscription. In the new Discussion Service it is possible today for a moderator to add an acceptance comment that is pre-pended to the message body, but currently only via the email moderation interface. It would be simple to always pre-pend some moderation indication to the body if there is no comment. Also in the Discussion Service which would be replacing the existing mailing list in the future there would be more of an permission-based . As view and post permissions are independently granted, it is possible to configure discussions so that more people can view (and subscribe) than can post, but every user needs post permission to post. We do not, for example, support the use case where a user without post permission may post with moderation to some discussions. Our engineers have stated that we would not like to take the path of both summary prefixes and reply-to manipulations as they are fraught with perils and confusion, not to mention long amount of time spent on reaching an amicable solution. Since we have found from the past that Solutions even to simple ideas that involve these tools are very hard, and very controversial, and in the end inescapably unsatisfactory to some portion of our customers. An suggestion of might be making use of moderated-in-sender as a list member *solely* *for* *this* *thread* was discussed . But that would be very hard to implement: in addition to requiring the obvious extra tracking, there's the problem that the fundamental definition of "this thread" is just exactly what we would like stay away from in the first place . --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
