Sorry I wasn't clear but yes, I knew they were from the mailman list. >Also this (the 'mailman' list) list's web_page_url attribute which >reflects its url host is http://dap002.dap.localnet/mailman/ which may >or may not be valid, but is certainly not accessable from the internet. That is correct since I don't have a static IP. I can access the admin functions from the LAN. My users must do everything via email. >Finally, these all appear to have been 'owner' bounces delivered to the >site list last April 17. I can see that but I have no idea what is significant about that date since it did not show up until after I did this restore thing. >If you go to the admindb interface for the 'mailman' list, you should >see these messages and be able to discard them - go to the same URL as >the admindb interface for your other list, but with 'mailman' as the >list name.

Even though the above didn't work, can I do this anyway? I don't use that mailing list so there are no messages in it that I care about. Is there a way to just wipe everything manually? I guess this list is necessary but is there a way to wipe everything and have it rebuild what it needs? That should clean everything up, right? >-- >Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, >San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
