Yes, but depending on what you actually want, there may be significant implimentation effort involved. This is not an out-of-box or turn-key installation. The LDAP MemberAdaptor linked below has several limitations. Quoting from the link below: Mailman lists with LDAP-based membership can still have moderators, list policies, and the other usual features of Mailman lists. There are a few missing features; notably: 1. There is no bounce processing. 2. There are no per-user preferences. 3. The Web interface still allows you to try setting user preferences, but if you do you will get a stack thrown at you. (Only the "readable" interface of MemberAdaptor is implemented.) 4. The LDAP settings of a list (e.g. LDAP server and search string) are only administrable by editing its "extend.py" file, not over the Web. 5. There is no digest mode. >> See >> <http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=871062&group_id=103&atid=300103>. >> -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
