Re: commands

My experience with this is that non-subscribers get a message from listproc
that says, "Sorry, you're not subscribed to that list, but you post has
been forwarded to the list owner for approval.  To subscribe . . . ."

It means some added hassle to you, Lady, but I believe you can rewrite the
default message to sound really nice and supportive and say that  the list
will still get the message.  Unfortunately, it means that Lady still gets
the spam, which could mean Lady still sings the blues . . .

(Sorry for the lame Friday humor)
