Clint,
I posted a message that had the word "subscribe" in the text
and I got a response from freelists.org saying my message was
bounced because of that word. So, I changed the word to
"join" and resent the message. That's the one Hugh replied to.
Thanks Hugh.
I use Mailman for the e-mail list. It's an announce-only
list. There are only four members who can post to it. If
other list members try posting or if any e-mail address tries
to subscribe they are refused and the list moderators
receives a notification.
Hope I made sense!
Tom

>Tom this was from Hugh, I don't know what's going on because
the post was actually bounced back: "Non-member submission to
closed-post list." !!!!!! Huh?? I checked and your address
IS still subscribed! (hugh**@g******, you know).
