I just tested it with my "play" mailman installation, and the "Your Membership Is Disabled" mail is sent from [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Please do (replace any_list with a list of yours): /var/lib/mailman/bin/withlist any_list and then issue the commands (without leading space) from Mailman import mm_cfg mm_cfg.VERP_PROBES What does it answer? -- Lionel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
