There are a couple of ways to do this. The withlist method for exactly this is described at <http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2006-July/052121.html>. The other method is to run bin/config_list with appropriate input ofer all lists via a shell script such as #!/bin/sh for list in `bin/list_lists --bare` do bin/config_list -i input_file $list done where input_file contains mlist.ban_list.append('[EMAIL PROTECTED]') See 'bin/config_list --help' and 'bin/list_lists --help'. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
