With 2.1.14-1, you can set the option globally for new lists via DEFAULT_NEW_MEMBER_OPTIONS in mm_cfg.py and you can set it for a list with bin/withlist or bin/config_list, but due to the above bug, the first time any change whatsoever is posted to a list's General Options GUI, all the new_member_options bits other than the four displayed on that page will be reset. > > HOWEVER! this is all moot because the list setting send_reminders = No > > takes precedence over individual user options, and when send_reminders > > is No, no periodic reminders are sent for the list regardless of user > > options.

Right. If the list's send_reminders is No, no periodic reminders are sent for that list regardless of any user's option. This does not preclude a user requesting and receiving a reminder from the options login page (or in 2.1.15, the private archive login page). On demand reminders are not affected by send_reminders. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
