you hit the nail on the hat! That was exactly it! Thanks!

I thought the users would read the replies with instructions when they
do *not* use their mail, they subscribed with to the list. Guess I was
wrong.

Using Sympa’s Web interface, I changed the configuration from
`privateorpublickey` to `privateoreditorkey` now.

Changing that configuration option, there is an interesting conceptual
decision now for Sympa. Should it also notify the moderators about the
messages waiting for authentication and allow them to distribute these
messages?


Thanks again,

Paul
