I do not understand what is going on. Yes these lists are public, but are over spammed. Therefore I moderate both lists to avoid spam. 1- if the sender is registered to any W3C lists the message gets posted to the lists 2- if the sender is not registered to any W3C lists the message does not get posted to the lists. I get the message and resend it to the mailing list (if it is mot spam of course). I have no idea why you can not post to the list if you are using the proper user email (any way I should get a message) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Leigh L.
