Reply-To: opendos AT delorie DOT com Ok, I've got the technology almost in place to limit posts to "members only". To make it easier for me, "members" are defined as any subscriber to *any* of my lists (i.e. a subscriber to opendos-digest or djgpp can post to opendos). If a non-member posts, they get a reply (well, maybe ;) explaining the situation and including a copy of their original email so they can resend it. There is a new "members" mailing list (you can't send to members AT delorie DOT com but you can subscribe to it) for those of you who wish to use a fake email to post with (i.e. subscribe your fake email to the members list so that you're now a "member" with that email address). I have not yet enabled it for any list. This does not change any of the other existing filters. Comments?
