Here's a suggestion: 1) Only you have permission to post to the trn-announce list. 2) Redirect trn-users to a moderated list, set up volunteer team. 3) Trn-workers, only subscribers may post, bounce nonsubscribers to volunteer team. 4) New posting address for subscribers to trn-users that's unmoderated. By moderating posts to trn-users, you maintain your objective of allowing ordinary users to ask questions without subscribing first. _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas -- http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm
