Yes, however my newgroup is moderated, and is moderated *by* the Listserv
mailing list address. Therefore, I think that a posting from the faq-server
would be forwarded first to the Listserv for clearance? If so, it would
either be blocked OR posted to both the newsgroup and the mailing list.
I hope I'm wrong.

Would a posting from the faq-server which carries an Approved: line then
bypass the moderator and go directly to public distribution on the newsgroup?
I'd like to think so (for the purpose of what I'm trying to do).
