The one I run, BERITA-L is basically a "read-only" group -- only 6 people are allowed to post to it, because we send real news articles, and very few people actually have news, most just want to read the news. >What you CAN do is to have the newsgroup set up as moderated and have >the address for posts be the mailing list. Then you can use the normal >Listserv controls (eg, Send=Private) to control who can post. I did this and then set everyone to NOPOST except for the few who post news. I also told people that if they have news and want to become a poster to email me personally and I'll change them to POSTers. .......................................................................
