Normally, you would go to a URL like http://lists.nhm.ac.uk/mailman/. If you want http://lists.nhm.ac.uk to go to the listinfo overview, but you want to access various Mailman CGIs as http://lists.nhm.ac.uk/mailman/admindb/listname, etc. then the above is OK and for Apache as an example, you would put something like the following in the lists.nhm.ac.uk section of httpd.conf ScriptAlias /mailman/ /path/to/mailman/cgi-bin/ Alias /pipermail/ /path/to/mailman/archives/public/ RedirectMatch ^[/]+$ http://lists.nhm.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo If you don't want to use 'mailman' in the URLs at all, e.g., go to URLs like http://lists.nhm.ac.uk/admindb/listname, you need something like ScriptAlias / /path/to/mailman/cgi-bin/ Alias /pipermail/ /path/to/mailman/archives/public/ RedirectMatch ^[/]+$ http://lists.nhm.ac.uk/listinfo And you need DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN = 'http://%s/' in mm_cfg.py. >2. mail from the lists will come from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yes. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
