I also noted that you are experiencing delays (hangs) on your post to the PLUG mailing list. Several users including me have had the same problem under NS 4.60 - 4.73. The attached README-NETSCAPE has so far fixed the problem for all who I know to have tried it.

Communicator 4.6 on Linux has been observed to insert bogus unqualified Sender: headers -- i.e. Sender: headers with only the username part of the email address. Other version of Netscape may also have the same bug. Members-only lists use Sender: as the first field to authenticate against, so if Sender: exists in the email message, but it is unqualified, it will never match a mailing list member's address, and their post will always be held for approval. In the future, Mailman will improve its algorithm for finding a matching address, but in the meantime, M. A. Lemburg = provides the following advice. You can send this snippet to any user whose posts are being held for seemingly no reason. Edit the two .js files in your .netscape directory (liprefs.js and preferences.js) to include the function call: user_pref("mail.suppress_sender_header", true); BTW, the binary includes a comment which says that this is only necessary on Unix. Since Communicator regenerates this file upon exit, the change must be done when Communicator is not currently running. With the next start, it will stop adding the Sender: header and things start to work like a charm again. The reason things start to work again, is that Mailman falls back to authenticating the From: header if the Sender: header is missing. =0C Local Variables: mode: indented-text indent-tabs-mode: nil End: --------------71A324B7418AFDE604B82B55--
