[Dspace-general] Unauthorized Users Submitting Items

We've just installed ver. 1.2.2 beta1 and now unauthorized users are
able to open a submission session.

When an unauthorized person (an e-person, but not a member of the
collection's Submit group) tries to submit an item, they do not see the
"Authoriztion Error" message.  Instead, the person is taken to the
first submission screen and presented with a pull down menu to select a
collection.  The pull down list, however, is blank.  Clicking the
"Next" button on the page produces this message:

"Invalid Identifier
The identifier does not correspond to a valid collection in DSpace. This
may be because of one of the following reasons:

The URL of the current page is incorrect - if you followed a link from
outside of DSpace it may be mistyped or corrupt.
You entered an invalid ID into a form - please try again.
If you're having problems, or you expected the ID to work, feel free to
contact the site administrators."

Policies for this group are set so that only members of the Submit
Group, Workflow Groups, and administrators can add items to a
collection.

Any ideas on how to correct this?  I posted this to the DSpace tech
list, but didn't get any replies.  Thanks for your help,

Marty
