Bad idea. Just think of one of those nasty email worms that use faked addresses. What does happen if one of those beasts sends itself to the list with the moderator address. Yeah nightmare, really bad nightmare. This is also why somebody should use sender confirmation and not only trust in the email address. Btw. I know somebody that got trapped by such a case. A group with 50'000 customers and a virus got through. You don't wanna experience something like that. (Note: it was not a qmail-group group). -- :wq Claudio
