iris-allow@hort.net works like "no-mail"  That is, it "allows" you to 
post but does not send you any mail.

If they used no-mail on both, yes they would have to work from the

If a message was addressed to both iris-photos and iris@hort then 
"Reply to All" should send a message to both lists, but the message you
