Mailman is not proprietary, it is open source. As I said, I am not aware of any documentation of the <MM-...> tags other than the code itself. Perhaps someone else on this or the mailman-developers list is. >Unfortunately, the technical support team at Intermedia has informed me that >I have no telnet access to the Mailman files relative to my list. >Considering that, I can not make the changes in the manner you have >suggested as I can not determine what functions the <MM> fields are >eventually executing. I think you may have misunderstood my response. If you don't have shell access to your Mailman installation, it is difficult to make changes to most templates, but the listinfo template is an exception. It can be edited through the "Edit the public HTML pages"->"General list information page" links on the lists administrative interface and the result will be saved as a list specific template. What I suggested is that you go the the listinfo page for the list using a web browser and use whatever option the web browser offers to view the page source. This will be the HTML with all the <MM...> tags converted to their values. You can then copy this HTML and paste it into the box on the General list information editing page and make whatever further edits you want and Submit Changes. Or you can just replace the <MM...> tags for the parts you want to change with their expansions. >Is there any way for me to access my personal Mailman files via telnet? If >there is, then I can do this research on my on and alter things as is >necessary. I don't understand. Above you said you didn't have telnet access. Now you appear to be saying you do. What access do you have and what do you want to see. If you want to see the Mailman code, you can always download the source from http://www.list.org/ to your own machine and look at it there. If you wan't to see your own list specific files beyond what's available via the web interface, you need shell access to the mailman installation on the host machine. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
