and if you think sendmail is a security problem.....last I knew one of the big problems with majordomo was that the license forbids the distributions from adding patches. So when a problem is found you either have to patch your source manually or wait for the owners (greatcircle ??) to patch it, and they are not quick about it. This is one of the reasons I went to mailman. I'm a little surprised you can't moderate through email, you can do most everything else through email....must admin I've never looked into it though. --rdp -- Rich Payne [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.alphalinux.org ***************************************************************** To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the text 'unsubscribe gnhlug' in the message body. *****************************************************************
