Ah, you a misunderstanding how it works. You are subscribed to the list as one address. When you send from another address, then the message sits is a queue waiting for a human moderator to approve it. I had to do that for this message. There are three moderators for Forrest spread around the world. My technique is: if they are a bone-fide poster, then i add them to the "allow" list. So next time their posting goes automatically. Just did that for your apache.org address. I notice that we have not seen the announcement(s :-) to xml.apache.org Perhaps the moderators of that list, whoever they are, have not dealt with it yet. -David
