It is not clear what went wrong or how or why, but there is bad data in this list's topics attribute. To "fix" the problem just move the lists/LISTNAME directory containing the config.pck and perhaps a few other files out of the lists/ directory. However, I would be interested in knowing what's wrong and how it happened. Unfortunately, this issue probably prevents even running withlist on this list. I.e., Mailman's 'bin/withlist LISTNAME' will probably throw the same error. You could help me however by sending me off list the lists/LISTNAME/config.pck and lists/LISTNAME/config.pck.last files, and also, if you can recall, telling what you entered in the list's topics that precipitated this. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
