dear eric,
that's right - thanks for pointing this out.
if this happens, or the message is held 'for moderator approval' for
other reasons, the _sender_ receives a message from the mailman
software that _explains why_ the message is being held back. in many
cases, the _sender_ can just correct the problem (e.g. by sending the
message directly to:spectre, rather than bcc'ing; or by deleting an
attachment; or by posting from a subscribed address; or...).
regards,
-a
hello,
messages only get trashed (again, automatically) if:
- they come from an address that is not subscribed
- they contain attachments
- they use formating, marked up links, etc., which the spam filter
recognises as
spam (see note below)
- they have a volume of more than 40 K.
there is another case where the message does not get through
or needs the permission of the moderators:
when you use bcc for mass mailing convenience.
i also was once questioning what happened that my mail did not
get through until i found out that this was the case because
of using the bcc field.
best
erich
