If you put "ALLOW_OPEN_SUBSCRIBE = Yes" in mm_cfg.py, you can then set the list to allow subscribe without confirmation. >I realize that the >confirmation step was >created to prevent any old yahoo from subscribing people to lists >without their >consent, but how would any old yahoo know what the list password is? The password argument is not the list password. It is the initial user password for this subscription. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
