I own the list medforum@arizvm1.ccit.arizona.edu which is gated to bit.listserv.medforum. This is a moderated list, with listserv itself as the moderator and Send=Private, to make sure that only subscribers can post messages. I have a user who has tried to post from the email side, and his posts did not show up on usenet. My first thought was that it was a return address problem, and that listserv was rejecting his posts because it did not know who he was. But then he told me that he was in fact getting "your message has been distributed" confirmation messages from listserv. Hmm....so the messages were apparently being mailed out to the email side (although I cannot verify this since I keep my own subscription set nomail), yet they weren't making it to usenet. Okay, so I reviewed the list and netnews@auvm is still subscribed...no funny business there. So I posted my own test message from the email side and it passed thru the gateway and showed up on usenet just fine. I'm out of ideas...where else could the problem be? Is there anything I should ask him to try to help figure out what the problem is? Thanks. -- Jim Marco -- doc@uiuc.edu There is a green, multi-legged creature crawling on your shoulder.
