It is probably simpler to go to the Privacy page of the web UI for administering the list where you will find the "Must posts be approved by an administrator?" option under the "General posting filters" heading. This set the list variable 'moderated'. You might also like to check out the default value of the Mailman configuration variable DEFAULT_MODERATED in $prefix/Mailman/Defaults.py and check if that has been overridden in $prefix/Mailman/mm_cfg.py. This sets the default value for new lists when they are created. In the standard distribution it usually defaults to value 0 (zero) which means the list is not moderated. ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users
