No, the newlist command does not update /etc/aliases, as you most probably require super user priviledges to update /etc/aliases, while you may not require super user priviledges to create a new list. So, you have to do that manually. Pankaj -Original Message- From: [EMAIL

If I understand what you are asking, then this is no problem... *You want a list called [EMAIL PROTECTED] that contains individual email addresses. Then you want to use this email address in other lists.* This works fine. The list can be setup as a standard mailing alias or as a mailman list.

Yes. I've automated this before at a company that used the database in a very similar way. You can dump out the email addresses into a text file - and only the email addresses - one email address per line. Then use the Mailman command-line commands to sync up the list with the text file. You
