I'm a bit confused. You seem to be saying that either 'reject' or 'discard' of a non-member post is acceptable, but then you say you want a notice to the poster which implies 'discard' is not acceptable. Anyway, you can set forward_auto_discards to Yes, to forward discarded (but not rejected) messages to the list owners and moderators. Messages from nonmembers which are discarded because the sender is in discard_these_nonmembers or generic_nonmember_action is discard will be forwarded. There are no standard settings to forward to the owners and moderators those messages which are 'rejected'. >I ask the company who's hosting this machine, if I can forward the mailman >email address to another address (either some external address outside of >the list or one of the members) and they say it can not be done. >Not having full access to the system (I run this thing through cPanel), I'm >a bit confused about their reply. Their reply can mean anything from they don't know how to they don't want to for various reasons. Also see <http://wiki.list.org/x/sYA9>. If you want the owners/moderators to see every non-member post, have you considered 'holding' them instead? You could also set General Options->max_days_to_hold to some non-zero value to automatically discard them eventually. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
