There are work arounds, but there's no simple way for an admin to change a members address without confirmation. The work arounds are: If you have command line access to the Mailman installation, you can use bin/withlist and call the Mailman.MailList.ApprovedChangeMemberAddress() method directly or create a withlist script to do it. As a list admin without command line access, you have to go to the member's options page and note all the settings, then use mass remove to remove the old address and mass subscribe to add the new one and then go to the new options page and restore the old settings. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
