Mailman does not create an alias per se. It does provide a list posting address and receives posts at that address and sends them to the list members. If the only purpose of your MySQL database is to provide a list of people/addresses to deliver to, you could use Mailman without modification and let it maintain it's own membership list and handle bounce processing and subscribe/unsubscribe, etc. See <http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq03.011.htp> for information about setting up announcement (one-way) lists. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
