I'm assuming you don't care about regular vs digest which you can't track because changes aren't logged. >I believe (not sure) that the vette(?) log keeps track of >subscribes/unsubscribes, so I could theoretically reconstruct the >list, starting with the current membership and working backward. Is >this possible? Is there an easier way? It's the subscribe log, but yes you can get the subscribes and unsubscribes and work backwards. Address changes currently aren't logged (they will be in 2.2), but that may not be significant for your purpose. No, I don't know an easier way unless you have a backup somewhere of the list's config.pck from the date of interest. If you do, you could use bin/dumpdb to get the information. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
