There should no problem at all using it for the posting address or the -owner address. There are various notices from the list to the owner, e.g. bounce notifications, posts requiring moderation, etc. that are actually sent to the -owner address before being resent from there to the owners/moderators. You don't want auto responses to those, but that's covered in that the auto responder won't reply to messages with Precedence: bulk, junk or list, and all Mailman generated notices are sent with Precedence: bulk or list. -- Mark Sapiro <[email protected]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
