* If rejected messages were indicated by simply missing a signature of approval, voluntary not searched for by individual readers, it would be harder to claim moderator censorship. Or to accomplish it, for that matter.

Innaresting. Sort of a reverse NoCeM. I like it, but of course you'd have to distribute the clients by magic.
Why 'reverse'? NoCeM's can be used to both 'hide' and 'highlight' articles. --- Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps
