Thanks again for your reply. I am getting closer ... I followed your steps and created all the neccessary files. Another question I have is regarding maillist.html file: ## Full URL to main index file $indexURL = 'http://www.gunnar.cc/mhonarc/demo/maillist.html'; Is this file created automatically or do I need to create it? I installed the application using 'perl install.me' ... I am also getting an error "mhamain.pl did not return a true value" when adding messages - http://www.exceltip.com/cgi-bin/mhonarc/contrib/mhastart.pl (pass: test2003). Your help is very much appreciated. -R --------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off this list, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message text UNSUBSCRIBE MHONARC-USERS
