<DIV><FONT size=2>My apologies to each of you whose messages took a long time to
get posted to this list. As moderator, I am supposed to be notified by Yahoo
Groups whenever there is a message to be approved. If a message is not spam and
is on topic for this list, I approve it immediately when I receive such notice.
Yesterday I happened to visit our list website and discovered five messages
which needed approval. I was surprised to see that some of them had been post
some time ago. I am unable to figure out what happened in this case. What I plan
to do is not only check my email, which I do many times a day, for messages to
approve, but also check the website more often in case something like this
happens again.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Again, my apologies and I hope the slowness of getting
messages posted the first time will not discourage you from posting in the
future.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>The intention for this list is that the Yahoo Groups software
intercept the first message from any poster, so that I can check to see if it is
spam (yes, we sometimes get such messages which might be about medicines to
enhance one's love experiences) or a legitimate message.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Unfortunately, even though I have tried to have the settings
for this group be like those of some other groups I moderate, namely, that only
the first message of a poster is moderated, then the system automatically passes
through subsequent messages, Yahoo Groups hasn't been doing this. If any of you
are familiar with Yahoo Groups and can tell me about some setting I might be
missing, I would be very appreciative.</FONT></DIV>

understand your irritation. It seems, when you post your first<BR>message, the

post a second one and both arrive on the site<BR>together. After that, it
appears, things flow freely.<BR><BR>I was irritated in just the same way when
I posted my first message to<BR>another Yahoo group. Now, I expect, this
