Ya, I realize all of this, however I have clients who would like, are requesting, and generally want this type of mechanism built in. The main reason is because many of the subscribers no longer remember what e-mail address they used to subscribe, and consequently don't know what to use to UNsubscribe. Having Mailman serialize its messages will provide a simple way for them to unsubscribe. -- W | I haven't lost my mind; it's backed up on tape somewhere. +-------------------------------------------------------------------- Ashley M.
