The Approved: header is ignored in this context. What remains unprocessed? If it is the subscribe command, there is something wrong with that command. If it is lines following the subscribe command, I suspect the command was processed and a confirmation was send to the address= address and the subscription is waiting confirmation from the user. > What is the correct syntax for doing this? That described at <http://www.list.org/mailman-member/node41.html>. However, that probably won't work for you because the Approved: header is ignored and the list's subscribe_policy is applied to the request. See the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/uIA9> for pointers to other ways to do what you want. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
