You can't do this directly from the admindb (pending requests) page. How easy it is to do depends on the capabilities of your MUA (e-mail client). First, you need a copy of the original message (only) which can be extracted from the immediate notification to the moderator (you) if you get immediate notifications, or extracted from the message as forwarded to you (instead of the other list) from the admindb interface, or if you are going to approve the message for the original list, it can be the post you receive from the original list after approval. Then you need to 'redirect', 'resend' or 'bounce' that message to the target list, and in this process or by pre-editing change the To: address from the old list to the new so the message doesn't get held for implicit destination, and maybe strip any subject prefix from the subject. Some MUAs make this very easy and some make it impossible. At worst, you can edit the message with a text editor and send it to the new list with the sendmail command or equivalent if you have access to that. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
