It looks like you're right. I don't know if there is/was a good reason or not. I'm cross posting this reply to Mailman-Developers. Maybe someone there knows the reason for this. Note that many places in the Mailman code, umask is saved and set for a particular purpose and then restored, but BounceRunner doesn't do this when creating the bounce-events-*.pck. I don't know why. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
