[Mb-civic] A request from the Moderator

Hi folks -

Just a quick reminder that you can only post to the list from the email 
address where you are subscribed. This is the address where you receive the 
posts from the list. When a post comes in from an address that is not 
subscribed it gets stopped by the spam filters and I get a notification to 
go to the Admin pages and Ok it or reject it if it's spam. While I don't 
mind doing this several times during the day it has been happening much more 
lately, so thought it worth mentioning. This also results in delays before 
your posts come through to the list.

One possible solution is to subscribe the other addresses you want to post 
from, but stop mail delivery to them (so as to not receive several copies of 
each post at different addresses).

Thanks for giving this your attention. Below my sig file I have copied the 
relevant section of the FAQ.

Here is the relevant section from the FAQ:

Posting to the list
To post to the Mb-Civic List send your email to mb-civic at islandlists.com It 
will be sent out to all of the subscribers of the list.

Please note the following:

You can only post from the email address you are subscribed at.

The email address mb-civic at islandlists.com must be visible in the “To” or 
the “CC” fields of your email. Emails where the list address is a Blind 
Carbon Copy, or as part of a larger mailing list which does not show the 
addresses, get stopped by the filters and must be OK’ed by the moderator 
before they go out to the list. Please make sure the list address is 
visible.

Posts larger than 100K in size must be checked and authorized by the 
moderator.

All posts to the list must be sent in plain text, and not in html.  The 
software we use to archive the posts does not accept any html, nor do some 
email programs, therefore we ask that all post be in plain text only.
