That is correct. The members nodups setting only stops sending a list post to the member if the member is an explicit addressee of the post. The original idea of nodups was to do more, but it wasn't implemented. >(c) I do NOT receive a request for approval from the umbrella list (yes!) > >I would like for the approval to be automatic and I'd like for duplicate email >addresses to be eliminated.

As indicated, you can do the former, but doing the latter requires code modification. >What I've done: >(1) added the sender's email address to the privacy options / sender filter / >non-member (even though the sender is a member and the sender's email moderate >check-box is not checked). Never checked if the sender is a member and not the hold reason. See comment under (a) above. >(2) done (1) above for each sublist and the umbrella list, although in the >umbrella list, the sender is not a member. This for the umbrella list is probably what allows the sender's post to pass through to the sub-lists. >(3) added the <umbrellalistname>@listdomain.org as a sender not needing >approval as in (1) above, but I didn't think I should have to do this, since >it's not the original sender. Probably correct that you didn't need to do this. Remark under (a) will fix (a). (b) is the subject of Feature Request <http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=230730&group_id=103&atid=350103>. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
