host_name is used for constructing the list posting address and the various <listname>-* addresses from the list name. >Our list members don't use Mailman's web interface.

No. Only the Mailman site admin (anyone who has logged on with the site password) and the individual user can request a global address change. In addition, regardless of who requests the change and whether or not it is global, a confirmation request is sent to the new address and the change must be confirmed. Individual list owners (logged in with a list admin password) generally can't request/change information for other lists. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
