I'm not sure what you're asking, but old versions of Mailman used to use 'crypt' or 'md5' to encrypt list admin and moderator passwords and site and list creator passwords, but it currently uses 'sha'. It will still try 'crypt' and 'md5' on the supplied password if 'sha' doesn't match, and if it gets a 'crypt' or 'md5' match, it will migrate the encrypted password to 'sha'. In order to compute 'crypt', 'md5' and 'sha' checksums, it uses the builtin Python modules. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
