+3.7.3 Recipient Filters</A>
+</H3>
+
+<P>
+The variables in this section control various filters based on the
+recipient of the message.
+
+<P>
+<DL>
+<DT><STRONG>require_explicit_destination</STRONG></DT>
+<DD>This controls whether the mailing list posting address must be
+ explicitly named in the <span class="mailheader">To:</span> or <span class="mailheader">Cc:</span>
+ recipient lists. The main reason why it wouldn't is if the
+ message was blind-carbon-copied (i.e. <span class="mailheader">Bcc:</span>'d) to the
+ list. Spammers like to do this, but sometimes legitimate messages
+ are forwarded to the list this way.
+
+<P>
+If the list is not explicitly addressed and this setting is turned
+ on, the message will be held for moderator approval.
+
+<P>
+</DD>
+<DT><STRONG>acceptable_aliases</STRONG></DT>
+<DD>This is the list of alternative addresses that are acceptable as a
+ list posting address when <code>require_explicit_destination</code> is
+ enabled. This is useful for when there aliases for the main
+ posting address (e.g. <code>help@example.com</code> may be an alias for
+ <code>help-list@example.com</code>).
+
+<P>
+</DD>
+<DT><STRONG>max_num_recipients</STRONG></DT>
+<DD>This is the maximum number of explicit recipients that are allowed
+ on the posted message. Spammers sometimes send messages with lots
+ of explicit recipients, so setting this number to a reasonable
+ value may cut down on spam.
