The only thing I might be concerned about is the use of this feature for building spam lists. I would only be concerned about this if I currently didn't get any spam, but as I get upwards of 500/day I don't care, but others might, which probably makes this email pointless. :) Would it be possible to allow the who function to only be executed by members of the list? While this wouldn't stop people from obtaining the user list by subscribing doing a who and then unscribing. It would stop the bulk of them of they were informed that the command was disabled by the list owner, as most people wouldn't try to use the list command by subscribing. I don't even know if majordomo can do this. I think having the who command available is a invaluable asset for everyone. And it should be enabled anyway. Just my 2cents worth. I should probably just shut up. :) -Rowan --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog

Yeah - valid point. Would Rex (or Donald, who ever -wins- the moderators job) be happy with mailing the list out to people who request it?. They could mail the list out as it stands at the mo and anyone who wanted a list at a later date could just email them for it? Stupid idea?
