For user subscriptions, you need to set Privacy options... -> Subscription rules -> subscribe_policy to None. If the None radio button doesn't appear, you need to set ALLOW_OPEN_SUBSCRIBE = Yes in mm_cfg.py. Alternatively, you can set the list's subscribe_policy to zero using withlist or config_list. > Our list subscriptions are mostly generated by > our lab/tool management software in response to a user getting > qualified to use a piece of equipment, and I don't want users to have > a choice in this case - they get subscribed, period.

Obviously, whatever you are doing now results in a confirmation request, but there are other ways. See the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/uIA9>, and/or the archived post at <https://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2004-December/041214.html> Or the software could just generate an input file for Mailman's bin/add_members which could be invoked either directly by the software or via a wrapper like the members.c wrapper attached to the above FAQ if necessary for permissions, or the add_members process could be just run periodically by cron. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
