(Copied to the list to avoid confusion - someone else did something similar a while ago): Just to explain further what happened - I don't think there IS a problem with the digest version of the list - if anyone sends a command of the form subscribe listname blah i.e. puts a space and then something else after the listname, then the something else is interpreted as an email address to subscribe you to, i.e. not just take the defult From: field from your message. Obviously this is potentially open to abuse as you might subscribe someone you don't like so it goes to the list admin (me) for approval - I think that's what happened because you asked for: subscribe sinister digest instead of subscribe sinister-digest As I said in my other message I think you're already on the digest actually. If I'm getting this wrong let me know but to check try unsubscribing from sinister-digest and then subscribing again. Paul ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
