Do you mean Radio amateurs being vetted by some Appliance
operator that does not know the difference between a Euro and a
Lira

We know some will not move so it will be
an additional facility. Please make sure it is has no taboo,
f
frequencies, modes, opinions, or subjects rules, and no childish
sulking. Another suggestion is to not make it an open group,
meaning that each request for membership should be
accompanied by a very
short introductory message explaining why that membership is
requested.
Then the moderator(s) of the group will decide whether to accept
it or not. I suppose the same is done
presently with the Majordomo
mailer.
And, if that introductory message is convincing, but up to a
point... then the moderator can accept the individual,
but putting him in
moderation status, meaning that every message from him must be examined by the
moderator(s)
before being published. The moderation status can be
removed after a couple of legitimate messages from the guy,
showing that he
is not a troll or spammer.
I use this method on my soft_radio
Yahoo group
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/soft_radio/
with
more than 2300 subscribers, and, if memory serves, I had just a couple of
cases where a spam message
got through in more than 8 years of the
existence of that group.
