> Those messages aren't approved -- they're held.
ok, Brad. thanks. sure. they are held. held for approval. they are not "approved". true. are they from subscribed members? some. most are not. but the setting says members_postings_only = 'yes' (ONLY!) ok. but there are about 60-70% messages that come from non members. they are held too. held for approval. or to be discarded. why? i don't know. they are not members. they should not be held. at all. in short the logic says: "no, they should not even considered to be held for approval. they are sent to the list by non members (spammers). the list is restricted so that ONLY members can post. that means any post from anybody not on the list doesn't matter - it's not important. shouldn't be held for approval." what is not clear in the statement members_postings_only='yes'? 'yes' or 'only'? i guess i'm hanging on "only". wouldn't you? sorry.... thanks... > -- > Brad Knowles, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." > > -- Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790), reply of the Pennsylvania Assembly to the Governor, November 11, 1755 > > SAGE member since 1995.
