Re: Newbie trying to use accept2 and accept.txt

1. Persons listed in the dist file (which is linked to the accept file)

2. Those listed in the accept2 file can post to the list but will nor

receive email from the list.

So 1 & 2 work as intended, yes?

3. All others (those not in accept/dist or accept2) are not allowed to

post to the list and if they do then the maintainer will get the message and the person who sent the message will receive the contents of accept.txt

But 3 isn't working, correct?

Does the maintainer get a message when someone not in the accept lists posts? Does that message have

X-Diagnostic: Not on the accept list

as one of its headers?
