If I understand it, you want to replace Mailman's private archive access control with your own php based one. I think you could make the archives public and add your php to the archtoc.html and archtocnombox.html templates, but this would allow people to bypass your validation by going directly to a message or lower level page. You might be able to do it effectively by modifying more templates, but I'm not sure. See http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq04.048.htp for info on modifying templates. After you modify an archive template, you have to rebuild the archives (normally just bin/arch --wipe <listname> ) to get the modifications into existing pages. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
