i guess, "russ" is the mailing-list to be run at the "usstudents.org" server. is this true ?? when creating a new list, you will have to make the mail-server be aware of the new pseudo-user. on linux you are likely to have to add the lines generated by the "newlist"-script to your /etc/aliases file. you can do this, with the "-o <filename>" option of newlist (newlist --help) mfg.cas.er IOhannes ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py
