~mailman/bin/add_members and ~mailman/bin/remove_members. These require privs. You should be aware that there are morons out there that will try to spam your lists with messages and probably fake subscribe/unsubscribe messages. If you allow for an Internet-wide subscribe without confirmation, you could easily be classified a spammer and end up on blackhole lists. You better know what you're doing before you dig into this. It isn't that hard for a user to subscribe or unsubscribe themselves. Admins, of course, can do it for them with the utilities I listed above or via the web pages. -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------ 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 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ This message was sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
