This is correct. The replacement is done when the footer is added to the message, not when the list is created. >For good measure I tried setting the msg_footer for all lists >by using >http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2007-January/055486.html > >All lists have the same footer: > >### >To unsubscribe: > 1) send blank email to: %(real_name)s-unsubscr...@%(host_name)s > 2) reply to the confirmation email >### > >Am I doing something obviously silly?

Are you saying that %(real_name)s and %(host_name)s are not being replaced in the footer added to outgoing mail or just that they are not being replaced in the msg_footer you see in the web interface. They are not supposed to be replaced in the web interface, only in the outgoing mail. -- Mark Sapiro <[email protected]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
