Whatever Member Adaptor is in use for a list defines a function getMemberOptions(self, member, flag) in that module. In your case, this should be in the module referred to above. You need to arrange that whenever this is called with flag = mm_cfg.Moderate, it returns True (or 1) if member should be moderated and False (or 0) if member should not be moderated. I.e. you need to place your code in getMemberOptions() in your Member Adaptor. Note: your Member Adaptor module may be called extend.py and be installed in a lists/<listname>/extend.py file for each list for which it applies or it may have some other name and be invoked globally in MailList.py in place of OldStyleMemberships() -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
