A number of people requested that the List not Receive the GATEWAY message.
I had the Rootsweb Turn this feature off on the list. I Like the Gateway,
because if a message is sent that is not appro, i can do something about it
right away. There is a feature in the Query board that you can receive a
notification each time someone sends a message, This is sent once a day. I
go that route, so that i know what is being posted.
