Now look at the subscriber database. You'll notice that peter-clark at tides.com is not listed. pc451 at yahoo.com is listed, however. Ever since you included the filter that excludes all Hotmail and Yahoo accounts from posting, I just switched addresses when posting. (Yea for Kmail, it takes care of that automagically!) So all the list messages go in to Yahoo and out through "Tides". So while I heartily agree that you should exclude messages from non-subscribers, could you PLEASE allow mail from Yahoo and Hotmail (since, if non-subscribers aren't allowed to post, the problem of throw-away accounts disappears)? And give the list warning, so that people like me can configure their MUAs appropriately? Thanks, :Peter
