I'm sorry about that. The mailer I uses (Netscape messenger) does not
implement the 'moderator bounce' function so I need to forward the mails
that are non-member and non-spam.

And unfortunately I can't either, at least for now, since the number of
mailers that are cross platform and share the same mailbox format cross
platform (over win2k, macos, linux, solaris and irix) is rather small.

I will check and see whether Netscape 6 has a moderator bounce function.
