On a more practical note, because of the moderation namedroppers is not as
effective as it could be. Mr Bush is as active a moderator as you could wish
one, often working at all hours but so far the moderation has not had any
additional value - it halts discussion. If people find contributions of
certain subscribers less than useful, they are free to use procmail.
