FYI to all. I sent a request to the [EMAIL PROTECTED] list

That ios exactly how this list works. The only addition is that moderators can
accept mails from unsubscribed users, and with these emails we have the
header 'Deliever-to: moderator' added.
CPH, forgive me for being blunt but that's nonsense. "linuxmaillists" is
requesting that subscription *be required* to post to this list. That is
exactly how this list does *not* work.
In addition to adding "Delivered-To: moderator ..." why oh why oh why
can't ***all*** messages from unsubscribed users have something like
"[Moderated]" added to the ***Subject*** line so that *every* user,
regardless of what mail/news reader s/he's using can *see* that the
message comes from an unsubscribed user?
What we have now is at best sub-prime (!!!). Many mail/news readers
readers can't filter on the Delivered-To header; users reading the
digest don't get those headers and, last but not least only *some*
messages from unsubscribed users have "[Moderated]" in the subject line.
***Please***
