Maybe. See below. >I am just confused about the wording of the command. Does that mean that the >message will go through but just to 1 person in the list and the other say >499 people will not receive it? No, it means that any message that is sent to the list with more than 0 (1 or more) addresses in the To: and Cc: headers combined, that message will be held for moderator approval unless it contains an Approved: header. Note that it is quite possible to send a message with 0 addresses in To: and Cc: which is why if you choose this option, you need to also set require_explicit_destination to Yes so that posts with 0 recipients will be held too. >2. For setting everyone's moderation bit on, I can figure that out as it's >an option under General -> Additional settings. Actually that's emergency moderation. Normally what you do is set default_member_moderation to Yes on Privacy options...->Sender filters so ne members are moderated and then set all existing members moderated under Additional Member Tasks on Membership Management...->Membership List. >But for the second part >regarding posting using an approved:header I don't see that option anywhere. This works with either option above. It is not a list setting. In order to bypass moderation of a post that would normally be held for any of the above reasons, you can put a header Approved: list_password in the message you send to the list. You can also put this in the first line of the body of the post (as long as it's plain text). The header will be removed, and as long as the list_password is correct, the post will bypass the hold and will be delivered directly to the list. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
