Re: [cobalt-users] Majordomo newconfig chokes on restrict_post

[Julien Macquart <jm@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I use very often the otpion "restrict_post", and had some problems too, i
resolved.
  First of all, the path of my restrict_post file is relative to the
/majordomo/lists path. I did a directory "restrict" in majordomo/lists, in
which i put my restrict_post files. So, the path of the files become :
./restrict/<restrcit file>
Then my restrcit files are called "res_<liste-name>". I don't know if this
modify something ...

Here is the way of my restrict_post files definition
