Do you _silently discard_ them? If the sender isn't monitoring the list, how will he ever know that his message didn't go through? If he _is_ monitoring the list, how long is he supposed to wait before complaining? Bush imposed his mailing-list control methods without IESG approval, in violation of RFC 2418, section 3.2. He has been caught engaging in content-based censorship several times: http://cr.yp.to/djbdns/namedroppers.html What's stopping him from selectively delaying or discarding messages that he doesn't like? How can we tell whether these were actually ``mistakes''? Manual reviews are completely inappropriate for a standardization forum. They allow uncontrolled abuse, even when they aren't exacerbated by a lack of notification to the sender. ---D. J.
