You can use one of your newly created, working lists and do bin/config_list -o filename working_list Then edit filename and remove the list specific settings like real_name, owner, moderator, description, info and subject_prefix and then using the edited file, do bin/config_list -i filename non-working_list Or, you could do bin/config_list -o file1 working_list bin/config_list -o file2 non-working_list diff file1 file2 to see what's different. However, if I understand correctly what "subscribe email not sent out" means, that is controlled only by send_welcome_msg, and "sender not receive posted message" is controlled by the individual user option called "not metoo" on Membership Management... -> Membership List. The default for this setting for new users is the "Do not send a copy of a member's own post" checkbox under General Options -> new_member_options, but that only affects the setting for new subscribers. Changing this has no effect on existing members. In order to turn off "not metoo" for all existing members (without doing it via the web interface) you need a withlist script such as the one at <http://www.msapiro.net/scripts/set_nodups.py>, but that script sets "nodups" On for all members. To set "not metoo" Off for all members you need to change the line mlist.setMemberOption(member, mm_cfg.DontReceiveDuplicates, 1) to mlist.setMemberOption(member, mm_cfg.DontReceiveOwnPosts, 0) -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
