All this talk about gateways makes me wonder if my lists aren't maybe being
gatewayed, WITHOUT my knowledge or permission. The object of all my lists
is NOT size, but creating a comfortable environment for certain groups of
people to engage in certain kinds of conversations. I don't want them
gatewayed for all the world to read -- is there a way to avoid this? or to
spot a "gatewayed" address? I've changed my majordomo settings to
restricted-post by list members only (I had thought my sysadmin had done
that already, but he apparently didn't set ANYTHING as I'd requested and
left if all in default mode) -- so we'll see if this guy comes back to the
one list.
