Well, that is how a mailing list generally works. If you don't like that,
make the list moderated or set up restrict_post and allow only a small
number of addresses.

Is your list something that isn't supposed to be responded to? You're not

Why would you not want people to reply? Using restrict_post or making the
list moderated will prevent people from sending mail without your approval.

What is a news config file?
C> Please let me know if you have any suggestions.
You should really supply enough background information to allow people to
answer your questions. It's difficult to go about guessing.
