Editing templates is discussed in http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq04.048.htp I'm not sure which template you want becaust the list welcome message doesn't normally have an IP address in it. The message that does normally have an IP address for a web based subscribe is the 'confirm your subscription' message. Anyway, the list welcome is subscribeack.txt and the subscription confirmation is verify.txt. The followin is more specific information that in the FAQ assuming that the template you want is subscribeack.txt. Also, I will assume you're only concerned with English language. For other languages, just substitute the correct language for 'en' The base template in in templates/en/subscribeack.txt. Do not change or remove this template. Copy it and edit the copy. By comparing the template with the actual message, it should be clear what to change. Things like %(somename)s are replaced with actual values. These can be removed form the template and replaced with constant values. For example, you may want to replace "Welcome to the %(real_name)[EMAIL PROTECTED](host_name)s mailing list!" with "Welcome to the Foo Bar Company mailing list!" Once you have edited your copy, if you want this change to apply only to the 'foo' list, create the directory lists/foo/en/ and store the modified template as lists/foo/en/subscribeack.txt. If you want the change to apply to all lists, create the directories templates/site/ and templates/site/en/ and store the modified template as templates/site/en/subscribeack.txt. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
