Larry's advice is probably the best to follow, but you could quote the list name in the aliases, e.g. s&l: |/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post 's&l' and so forth. You would have to manually edit the aliases file for each such list, but it would probably get you around this issue and on to the next :-) -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
