I will remove list members who turn on vacation autoresponders, but won't 
remove list members who deploy challenge/response mechanisms (annoying as 
they are).

Your message is a good reminder to people of this list that it's poor 
etiquette to join an email discussion list with a challenge/response system 
turned on.

I would remove them if it were easy, but I have a hard time identifying 
challenge/response list members because I've already went through the 
challenge/response process before most people get to this list because of 
other newsletters that they are on also that I host.

Maria or others: Is there a way to truly whitelist a challenge/response 
account for a discussion list? Because the challenge/response is triggering 
based on the From: field of the sender of the message -- it would be 
difficult to do a blanket whitelist I would think.

Your thoughts?
