For some reason it seems I've gotten more than the usual
number of admin messages regarding posts by a non-member
to a list.  It has been happening on a number of the many
lists I manage, not just this one.

Basically what happens is this:

People subscribe AddressA to the list.  They get the
messages at that address.

They send messages to the list from AddressB.  AddressA
is a member, AddressB is not.  The post from AddressB
is rejected as non-member spam.

Send messages from the address that is subscribed and they
won't get rejected as non-member spam.  If you aren't set
up for digest mode, the address where you get the mail is
listed in the trailer of each and every posting, right there
below the donate link.  Donate early, donate often!

If you normally send messages from AddressB, then subscribe
AddressB to the list.  If you want messages to go to AddressA
and not AddressB, then subscribe AddressB and set your mailman
options to not deliver to AddressB.

Hopefully this will assist some folks with managing Team.Net
email.
