Yes, and I found this "recipe" in the .examples/rc.local.r00 .. MY question is "What do I do with this recipe? Copy and paste it in to the email? Copy it into a configuration file? Rename it as an exucutible? What do I do with the recipe? Maybe somebody who does this all the time, can explain to someone who has never used unix. Thanks, tom
You make a copy called rc.local.r00 and place it in the list directory. Of course, you also have a moderators file and you uncomment rc.local.r00 in the rc.custom file. Now when you add the Approved line at the top of the body of the message, with a blank line between it and the rest of the

the Approved line will be treated like a header.
BTW, speaking of using control panels, 100% of this is done for you when you change your newly created list into a moderators list using the control panel's mail manager. The problem with this utility is that it can only be used once. If you change the list into let's say a newsletter and then want to go back and change it to a moderated list, it won't work. Have to start with a new list. :o( I work for the company that created this utility from my specifications and the really irritating thing about it is that I asked for a default, 'return to normal state', but somehow that never happened. If enough of you ask for it, I can have it together and uploaded to all control panels in our network in a flash.
