We are painfully aware of Mailman's backscatter issues (the above is only one), and there will be changes to address this in Mailman 2.2. >How can I disable the quoting of the original messages in responses from the >'request' address? In Mailman 2.1.x, only by modifying the the Results.send_response() method in Mailman/Queue/CommandRunner.py. If you want to do this, post that fact, and I can suggest a patch. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
