ok I got it now. And in fact redefining OWNER_PIPELINE would not be the best approach - knowing that the RE is applied to both messages and getting it right is the way to go. ( so I want subject.*\[SPAM\].* ). I did log a feature request for the other issue. Thanks for all your help Mark. If someone could do an ls -R or ls -lR (if there are links) of a 2.1.5 mailman directory and post it it would help figure out where fedora puts all the pieces (I'll build a list of links from it so it looks like a normal mailman directory and I can work with it more easily). OFF-TOPIC below: Standards compliance (fedora) is one thing (I work in standards) but when everyone already has a fine standard (put it in the mailman user directory) and the community has no plans to change that then i find it very silly to just throw that away (when people in a community don't have a standard practice and need pulling together then imposing one is good but the mailman community already have a very good de facto standard that its barmy to change without getting the community on board). I'd prefer to stick with normal mailman practice. In fact I considered not using the fedora package and building mailman by hand as I used to do. I approve of standards for where to put things but communities have to be brought along, standards can't be dictated. Next machine I build won't be fedora - not knowing where things are feels like working with MS. andy ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
