I suspect the reason this one gets asked repeatedly is that it's counter-intuitive. "Posting restricted to members" is separate from the issue of "Posting allowed only from specific e-mail addresses". And people think of it different ways, too. We see different terms used. Is it a "moderated" list, or a "news-letter", or a "send-only" list? "Moderated" to me means potentially anyone (or only subscribers) could submit material, but only some would be distributed. "News-letters" or "send-only" or "distribution" or "one-way" list means many receive but only 1 or a few can send, whether it's "moderated" or not. Maybe a little judicious rewording or reorganization could make the settings clearer, and some inclusion of the different terms might make the FAQ entry easier to find. John G.
