i've tried a whole manner of quotes and escaping out the spaces. i've tried the following with no luck:
rmlist -a "test list" rmlist -a 'test list" rmlist -a test\ list rmlist -a "test\ list" rmlist -a 'test\ list' none have worked. i'm no python guru but i looked in the source for rmlist and list looks like all it does is an 'rm -rf' of /home/mailman/lists/<listname> as well as the archive directories associated with the list. i'm now just looking for confirmation if this is safe for me to do manually. -paul --- Greg Westin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Dear Paul, > > I don't know if this would work or not, but have you > tried something like: > > rmlist -a list\ name\ with\ spaces > > ?
