Thanks, found it. And now I know the reason why I checked it. First time ever I set the language to German and when going thru the list options I found new_member_options "Mails des Nutzers immer freigeben und verteilen" which means "always allow and distribute member's mails" and not "Acknowledge the member's posting". But I think even the English phrasing is somewhat ambiguous: "Acknowledge the member's posting" could mean automatic allowance of the member's mails. That's obviously also what the translator had in mind. I suggest changing to: English: Send confirmation (*) for each posting to the member German: Für jedes Posting eine Bestätigung an das Mitglied schicken (*) instead of acknowledgement Shall I open a bug for that? The descriptions on the member list page are much better: ack -- Does the member get acknowledgements of their posts? Bestätigung -- Bekommt dieses Mitglied Bestätigungen für seine Sendungen an die Liste?
