You could try to find the line urlpat = re.compile(r'(\w+://[^>)\s]+)') # URLs in text near the beginning of Mailman/Archiver/HyperArch.py and change it to urlpat = re.compile(r'(\w+://[^>)\s]+?)\.?(\s|$)') # URLs in text Note this re is very lightly tested and may not work in all cases. Of course, if you can get the posters to surround their URLs with <>, there is no problem. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
