I'm still in the process of deciding whether to bring SCREEN-L to b.l.screen-l.

One option I'm considering is creating b.l.screen-l as a *moderated* newsgroup 
even though SCREEN-L is an *un*moderated LISTSERV.

Here's my question re the mechanics of moderating:

If someone is a newsgroup's moderator he/she receives articles for the 
newsgroup through e-mail, correct?  Does he/she then *e-mail* the postings to 
the newsgroup or does he/she have to connect with Usenet and *post* the 
articles through that (awkward, for me) process?

Thanks for the clarification.
