I think the non-member-bounce is an add-on/patch to majordomo 1.94.5 from Joe's site, and not part of the standard distribution (yet). ftp://ftp.ccsf.org/majordomo-patches/1.94.5/config_parse.pl-resend.0 While many (including myself) find this patch extremely useful, there should be a warning that 90+% of internet mail today is spam, and more than 90% of that is from a forged address that will either bounce, or just anger an innocent recipient because your non-member message just appeared to them as spam. It is better to post rules for your list on a web page, or in the auto- help message from majordomo than to risk the undeliverable, unexpected, or unwanted auto-replies from your list. Other choices/options are to open your list, exposing it to much spam, or moderate it, exposing the moderator to much spam. Dan Liston
