$prefix/archives and the private/ and public/ sub-directories thereof are created on installation, and if Mailman is running there must be a 'mailman' site list and thus $prefix/archives/private/mailman/ and $prefix/archives/private/mailman.mbox/ subdirectories whether or not they contain any actual archives. Further, If $prefix/archives/private didn't exist, check_perms would have thrown a "OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:" exception instead of reporting it was o+x. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
