vb.org Archive - View Single Post - NNTP Gateway for Usenet ( Newsgroups ), Mailing Lists

Sorry, it was my own fault, email works now.

But I have another few questions on some things I would like to do.

The mail list that i am backing up requires registration to post and the backup i will make on the forum should be read only. i don't want to spam the list with test messages to try this one out so i thought i would ask.

If I simply change the forum permissions to prevent usergroups from being able to post/reply for that forum, should that be sufficient to stop forum users from using the email gateway to post messages to the mail list server?

Also when messages are delivered they sometimes are prefixed "RE:...." or "FW:...." Can these characters be stripped?
If I could strip things like FW: and RE: I could forward old messages to test threading etc (which does not seem to work).
Each post has a fixed name enclosed with suqare brackets always, like [listname]

Any help appreciated
