I am running LetterRip on an old PowerMac 7100 and I am pretty sure
that it does not have a confirmation option.
Fortunately, we haven't had any spurious messages posted to the list
in the last few days and hopefully this will continue. If we start
getting inundated with junk mail then I can institute some additional
measures (e.g., turning it into a moderated list or only allowing
postings from subscribers)
