Hi Brian:

I'm afraid that *any* eMail sent to lua-l@tecgraf.puc-rio.br is 
immediately forwarded to every signer. There's no checking if the 
sender is a list member. I sent an eMail once from another address and 
it make thru the list without any problem (I was expecting a bounce so 
I sent it again from my subscription address). Both messages got in...
