The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[address@concealed]

Hi everyone.

I'm creating a social web app for my church to help us manage people
information and do some tech things easier. One thing we want is for people to
log into the system and join a group in the system which will automatically 
put
them on that group's email list. That saves us trouble, since right now if you
want to be on a list one of our moderators has to add you through Sympa's web
interface.

I've been playing with this for quite some time and can't figure out what's
wrong. I can get the list to update from the external people DB every 60
seconds like I want it to, and that works fine. If I add an email to the DB,
then check Sympa, the email appears and the list looks like it should. The 
only
problem is that when someone on the auto-generated list sends an email to the
list, Sympa makes it get moderated (as if that person isn't on the list). 
Then,
when the moderator allows it through, no one on the list gets the email.

My sending/reception settings look fine: 
send => "Private, moderated for nonsubscribers"
reception => "mail"
visibility => "noconceal"

Anyone have any ideas?
