Notices that say that the post from the address in discard_these_nonmembers was auto discarded, or some other notice? There are 4 possible actions to be taken on a post from a non-member. Accept - accept the post for the list Hold - hold the post for review by a moderator - notify the owners/moderators in a daily summary and also immediately if General Options->admin_immed_notify is Yes. Also notify the poster of the hold. Reject - do not accept the message but notify the poster. Discard - do not accept the post and do not notify the poster. The lists Privacy options...->Sender filters->*_these_nonmembers are lists of non-member addresses and regular expressions matching non-member addresses. The corresponding action will be applied to posts from a non-member address that matches one of these lists. Posts from non-member addresses that don't match one of the lists are handled according to Privacy options...->Sender filters->generic_nonmember_action. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
