Majordomo has for some time had the ability to restrict posts to those addresses found in a list of files. Just add an additional file for those who wish to be able to reply but read via exploders. restrict_post = nanog:nanog-digest:nanog-exploder For the terminally lazy, just create a dummy list called nanog-exploder, make it moderated, and allow open subscription to it. Anyone who wants to read nanog via an exploder and be able to reply to nanog, or who wants to be able to reply from multiple addresses subscribes to nanog-exploder. This seems awfully simple...is there some drawback I've missed? ------------------------------------------------------------------ Jon Lewis <[email protected]> | Unsolicited commercial e-mail will Network Administrator | be proof-read for $199/message.
