Hi.

Thanks for running the test, but the answer really isn't up to me.

1. Although I am an administrator of wikiEN-l I don't make policy. I only carry out the will of the group.

2. I am going on vacation until Jan. 2, 2003 -- so I won't be around to make this happen!

I forwarded your post below, to wikiEN-l but that will be my last contact with the Internet for the rest of the year!!

Thus I cast off the spell of virtual reality and return the real world.

"Poof!"

Poor, Edmund W heeft geschreven:

Can we do the following?

(A) Automatically send EVERY wikiEN-l post to the newsgroup (B) Still filter the mailing list according to Jimbo's moderation plan?

I have done a test and it is possibel to send a message only to the newsgroup and not to the email subcribed list members.

See the posting "Test for Ed" on gmane.science.linguistics.wikipedia.technical

How to do it; The message must be hold for approval. Do not approve the message, select something else, like discard. You have the option "Additionally, forward this message to:" and fill there in the list member emailadress from Gmane.org (see Membership Management)

And send it. Only the newsgroup will recieve it. Of cource, if somebody send a reply from the newgroup everbody will see it.

So it is possibel. If it is a good idea is something else.

To do this WikiEN-l must be add to gmane. You are the list administrator. My I add wikiEN-l to gmane?
