Lines: 13 Summary: only solves part of the problem Ok, adding the entries to mailpaths does allow postnews and such to send to the right address when posting to local moderated groups, as long as the active file marks the group as moderated. Now, what about the other part of my problem? Our local moderated groups are fed by a mail alias that uses recnews. There is no real moderator in the loop. How do I get recnews to use inews to feed news into the group (instead of mailing to the moderator) while not allowing users who use postnews to post directly to the group? Do I need to hack up recnews to insert an "Approved-By:" line in the messages it sends to inews? Bill Shannon
