it is easy undex unix, what you have to do is store arriving article in separate directories by message ID and run diff (with certain corrections) on these two directories.
diff will print you the files that are in one dir and not in another.
take an extraction, and delete too new articles (so that propagation does not screw you up).
thats it
If you just want the differences and aren't too concerned with timeliness, I'm planning on running a cypherpunks-rejects list containing all the messages that went out the unedited list but didn't show up on the moderated one within x hours (not sure what x should be yet).
Then you must use two separate addresses to do that right. And you may want them to both be UNIX or at least the same OS at each location, so you can write some batch programs to save you the manual wwork.
No, one address is enough. You can look at a Unix tool called procmail, which allows filtering of incoming messages. For example, you could completely insulate yourself from, say, follower of clawed albino. - Igor.
