I'm not too clear on what's happening, but it seems you're saying that the user replied to the confirmation email, but then the owner had to approve the subscription. See below: >Question: Is it meant to be an automatic validation/confirmation? Or, am I >(the list owner) always going to have to manually confirm the subscriber >after receiving the list confirm email after subscription has been >requested? This is a list configuration option. it is controlled by Privacy options...->Subscription rules->subscribe_policy. See the "Details for subscribe_policy" for more info. Also, it is not usually recommended, but you can set ALLOW_OPEN_SUBSCRIBE = Yes in mm_cfg.py and then have the option of allowing subscription without any confirmation or approval for a list. See the "# SUBSCRIBE POLICY" section in Defaults.py for more info, and if you want to change any default settings, override them in mm_cfg.py. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
