This is not a good idea. It allows anyone to subscribe anyone else to your list without the subscribed person's knowledge or consent. Do you really want to do this? If you do, there are two ways. You can set ALLOW_OPEN_SUBSCRIBE = Yes in mm_cfg.py and then set the list's Privacy options... -> Subscription rules -> subscribe_policy to None, and create your subscribe form per the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/hIA9>. Or, you can create a web page that either invokes curl or wget or posts it's own data to the admin CGI as outlined in posts linked from the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/uIA9>. However, if what you want is for people to be able to subscribe without further interaction on their part, you might consider just setting subscribe_policy to Approve and having subscriptions approved by an admin or moderator. This isn't much better, but at least it allows the admin to detect a suspicious pattern. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
