That *is* what happens...but it has to *manually* be done. The message
gets bounced to the list owner (myself as of recent since MZ left) and
then I verify it was not in error, and send off a message as to why & how
to subscribe to the user.
If you ARE already a subscriber, the e-mail goes directly through without
any intervention on my or anyone elses part, so any accusations of
"censorship" are certainly unfounded and *I* take personally. If anyone
has a problem or concern with the list _ever_, please e-mail me.

I'm going through the recent majordomo administrative (including bounced
posts) requests as I write this...seeing your e-mail that got bounced I
just (several minutes ago) approved it. Yours was *not* the only one,
there are a good number of similar bounces and other request in my box as
I seem to have volunteered myself for the role of administering several
lists lately... in addition to my regular work. Unfortunately I did not
get to the list Friday night.
Because I saw that since originally submitting your post, you've figured
out how to join the list, I decided to forgo with sending you a
"subscription info" e-mail, figuring that would be slightly redundant and
pointless and just APPROVE'd the e-mail to the list which should arrive
shortly if it has not already.
Also, it is no deep dark secret that sending the command "help" to a
majordomo server will get you just that. If you feel a great need for the
info still, e-mail me.
Jack, if would have been sort of pointless to bounce only your own
personal posts submitted to the portmaster-users lists, while still
allowing Karl's (and everybody elses) through regarding the same subject,
since most of them were quoting your entire e-mail anyway...
Anyhow, I think _this_ portion of the thread can safely left alone now.
That is all.
