Because the user is still going to the http://www.example.com/mailman/private/LISTNAME/ URL instead of going to http://www.example.com/pipermail/LISTNAME/. When you made the archive public, the link to the archive on the list's listinfo page changed, but any old saved URLs or bookmarks in people's browsers of course didn't, and the 'private' CGI always requires authentication whether or not the archive is public. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
