Once again: Bush is (1) subjecting a huge number of legitimate messages
to manual review and (2) silently discarding many of these legitimate
messages, apparently at a rate of hundreds per year (not counting mine).

All you need to do is ONE of the following:
        Use the same subcription address and posting address
        Ask Randy to put your posting address on the approved posters
                list.


Both #1 and #2 are unacceptable. I want the manual reviews _eliminated_.
If a message isn't posted immediately, it must be bounced, with a clear
explanation of how to have it posted without Bush's intervention.

The ONLY reason there is manual review is because you are not
addhearing to the protocol for posting to the mailing list.


If the IETF documentation doesn't make sufficiently clear that Bush's
behavior is unacceptable, that documentation also has to be fixed.

Send text.
