Actually, Mailman won't work without the specific site list. You can change its name by asigning a different name to MAILMAN_SITE_LIST in mm_cfg.py. You can set this list to unadvertized and require approval for subscription (on Privacy options...), but you need it. bin/mailmanctl checks for it and won't start qrunners if it is missing. It doesn't have to be publicly accessible in any way or allow posting, but it should have a valid e-mail address as its owner. It is used for mailing password reminders, and certain notifications are sent to its -owner. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
