If I understand what follows, the problem is not with list creation, but rather it is with the icon images on all Mailman web pages. <snip> > <td><img src="/usr2/virtualwebs/icons/mailman.jpg" alt="Delivered by > Mailman" border=0><br>version 2.1.9</td> > <td><img src="/usr2/virtualwebs/icons/PythonPowered.png" alt="Python > Powered" border=0></td> > <td><img src="/usr2/virtualwebs/icons/powerlogo.gif" alt="Powered by > FreeBSD" border=0></td> <snip> > Each of the above referrer lines for the img_src are shown with the absolute > path correctly specified in the page source.

If you remove this line from mm_cfg.py, you will be left with the Defaults.py setting IMAGE_LOGOS = '/icons/' This then will be matched by the Alias /icons/ "/usr2/virtualwebs/icons/" that probably exists in the Apache configuration. I may have the details of this path wrong, but the idea is that there is already an alias in the Apache configuration that points to Apache's icons. You add Mailman's icon files to Apache's icons directory, and if necessary, you set IMAGE_LOGOS to match Apache's alias for icons. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
