Thanks for reading this far! At this point, lists/listname/pending.pck is corrupt and has to be removed for normal stuff to proceed. The underlying problem is new_members defines the UserDesc class to be empty, thus when you call mlist.AddMember(userdesc, remote="Webpage") userdesc is not a valid UserDesc instance for AddMember which is where things go wrong. I think you need to do the following in your script. Add from Mailman.UserDesc import UserDesc Remove class UserDesc: pass It looks like that's all you need, but I haven't looked too thoroughly. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
