Hi Erik,

A suitable line in a custom send scenario.

No, I don't believe there is - others more familiar with the current sources 
can probably explain the obstacles better than I, but I can't think of a way 
to provide that option without EITHER the UI rewriting a custom send scenario 
OR adding in some code to have the send scenario do a lookup against an extra 
field in the user table for problematic users. 

This solves the problem in some lists on my systems:
        equal([sender], 'address@concealed')  smtp,dkim,smime,md5 -> 
editorkey

Similarly, this has the opposite effect in normally-moderated lists - or 
lists for which the sender is not a subscriber (because they don't want the 
noise) but need to shout at the list cohort:
        equal([sender], 'address@concealed')  
smtp,dkim,smime,md5 -> do_it


Kind regards,

Mark.
