Aaahh - the light dawns. I didn't realize the 'command results' email was in response to the 'subscribe' email. I thought it was in response to a 'confirm' email. So, yes, if you have ALLOW_OPEN_SUBSCRIBE = Yes in mm_cfg.py and have the list's subscribe_policy = None, you will get both a welcome message and a 'results of your email commands' message in response to a successful 'subscribe' command. Both the base code which avoids sending a response to a successful 'confirm' if a welcome will be sent and the patch which I sent which avoids responding to all successful 'confirms' only address 'confirm' commands, not 'subscribe' commands. So yes, it may be a bug in that it is not necessary to send a 'results' message if the subscribe requires no confirmation or approval and a welcome will be sent, but it is not a bug in the sense of code not working as intended, because it was never intended to recognize this case and not send the results. However, I'm still confused about unsubscription confirmation. The list's subscribe_policy shouldn't affect this. It is affected by unsubscribe_policy in that if unsubscribe requires moderator approval, no user confirmation is required, but otherwise, confirmation is required unless the users password was provided in the email unsubscribe command or the user logged in and unsubscribed from the options page. Perhaps it is a cPanel modification to allow unconfirmed unsubscribes when subscribe_policy is None. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
