This is because current behavior was first implemented in 2.1.7. >I have done something, which is probably bad practice, etc..... but >it is done. I have used the same password for the system admin and >site admins, as I too own all the lists -- I have about 100. So, up >through 2.1.6 it must have taken me as system admin, 2.1.8 now >possibly sees me as site admin. Actually, it always takes you as the list admin, not the site admin. The site admin is allowed to see the user's other subscriptions, the list admin is not since 2.1.7. >Is there any way around this?? I can access the command line scripts, >but for reasons I won't get into here, it is not my favorite method. Change the site admin password to be different from the list admin password and use the stie admin password when you need that function. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
