Thanks to all of those that responded.
Based upon all of the ideas, I came up with the following code to do the trick.
-Rich
sub filter_begin () { ... %lists = &get_lists();
...snip...
open (LISTS, "/var/mailman/bin/list_lists -b|")
or die "Could not execute '/var/mailman/bin/list_lists -b'.\n";
my only suggestion is that you do not call die in your filter. it could cause strange things to happen. you're better off returning a null hash if the open fails.
