Thanks Mark, The list is used for announcements to our members who are disinclined to engage any further than being passive recipients. Yes, we also have administrative access to the mailman server. I had been hoping that there would have been some code in the listarchives that would have allowed us to do a cut and paste job by tweaking variables - being a voluntary organisation limits our internal IT capability and certainly closes off the prospect of paying someone else to come in with a solution.
Thanks for your prompt input nonetheless. I'll attempt to unravel something over the weekend.

First you have to ask yourself if you really want to allow anyone to unsubscribe anyone else without any verification. If this is a discussion list, this is a really bad idea - e.g., usera doesn't like a post from userb so usera unsubscribes userb. Even if it is an announcement list, it may not be a good idea. If you really want to do it, without any questions/confirmations, you'll have to either invoke a mailman command line tool like bin/remove_members from your web page or create your own CGI script. If you don't have administrative access to your Mailman server, you can't do it. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
