Thanks so much, Rolf. I'm so glad you responded to my e-mails to you & made contact with this group again. The moderators the group has now will keep things straight from now on. Re: Restricted Membership. It really is no hassle whatsoever for the potential member. All they do is hit the JOIN THIS GROUP button, same as always. A prompt will pop up in the "Pending" area, and as soon as a moderator checks it out & thinks it's okay, he just approves the request. BAM!...done. If you moderate individual messages, that means that everything posted must be approved by a moderator. When traffic's heavy that may be quite time consuming. I like the restricted membership method better myself. You can also, as previously suggested, moderate messages from newbies until they've proven themselves to be good citizens, then un-moderate them. One more thing, as I roam around Yahoo groups, any time I see someone posting anything inappropriate, such as porn sites, I copy their e- mail address to my banned list. That way they can't join EVER & don't have to be messed with even once. So glad you guys are up & running again. Very pleased I could help. Zilla
