And charlie derr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> replied: > Looks like ban_list under Privacy Options will do what you desire. The problem with this solution, I believe, is that when the list owner attempts to subscribe someone manually, that subscription attempt will not be allowed due to the ban_list. I do not know what would happen if the list owner temporarily removed the ban_list, did the manual subscription, and then re-instituted the ban_list. What I would do in response to the original question is set the list to "confirm and approve". If I were to see a subscription attempt, then I would either approve the subscription or tell the attemptee that subscriptions are not allowed. For a list with this configuration I most likely would not have the list advertised. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Barry S.
