No. You can change the list's real_name attribute, but only so it differs only in case from the list's internal name. E.g. If the list is junklist, its real_name could be any of junklist, JunkList, JUNKlist, etc., but not even Junk_List would be allowed. This is the only change you can make. See the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/mYA9>. All the methods there require command shell access to the server. The best you can do as a list admin is create a new list with the new name (if you can), manually configure it like the old list, extract the membership from the old list (see <http://wiki.list.org/x/aYA9> and/or the script at <http://www.msapiro.net/mailman-subscribers.py>), mass subscribe the mmembers to the new list and then manually set their options on the new list. Such a process will not move the archives. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
