Short answer: Yes. See <https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/558093>. Longer answer: Mailman 2.1 accesses all list member information through a single MemberAdaptor module. This module is defined at Mailman/MemberAdaptor.py which defines and documents all the methods that Mailman uses to store, retrieve and change member information. The methods in this module are designed to be overridden by those of a specific member information module. The overriding module that ships with Mailman is Mailmna/OldStyleMemberships.py. That module stores member info in the same python pickle that stores the list configuration. There is a MySQL adaptor from Kev Green in the tracker at the above URL. There is also a fork of this adaptor at <http://trac.rezo.net/trac/rezo/browser/Mailman>. Neither of these is exactly what I think you're asking for as they use a dedicated table for the member info, but they shouldn't be difficult to modify to suit your requirement. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
