It is certainly possible, but you will need to do a fair amount of scripting to make it convenient. You can use bin/withlist to modify list parameters (there are examples in the list archives and FAQ). You might want to consider still using Apache, but limiting access to just localhost or your LAN, for administrator's use. > 2. I want to manage list users on my own.

My first inclination is that without the web interface, at least for the administrators, that Mailman isn't the right choice for the mailing list manager in your application. -- Jim Tittsler http://www.OnJapan.net/ GPG: 0x01159DB6 Python Starship http://Starship.Python.net/ Ringo MUG Tokyo http://www.ringo.net/rss.html ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/
