No shell access to my hosting service. I presume I would at least need the shell access to do a list_members? I do have access to cron jobs and I have used that to poke around a bit and locate the subsriber lists. No luck there. Would I likely have access to list_members if I had shell access? I have found that I can not easily get a list of subscribers emailed to me with a "who" command transmitted via email. I would have to change a parameter on each and every subscriber via the web interface. Total number of subscribers spread over two lists is about 400. Is there a convenient way to expose the addresses of all subscribers? In the past, I have copied and pasted out of the web listing of subscribers. That, too, is pretty tedious at 20 a time. Not something I'd want to do every week or so. HEY! I think I've got it! I put "~mailman/bin/list_members > list_members" in a cron job and got a list_members file that contains list_members help. -- Willie, ONWARD!
