I agree with you, Mark. Unfortunately, as you may know, my Python skills aren't the best. I am working on little bits of improvements for us here as time permits so I use the tools with which I am most familiar.
Since we are using Mailman v2.1.9, we are a bit behind where Mailman currently sits. Your gracious help assisted us with the LDAP plus I have made some custom modifications - one you help with was for "Special Posters" and a set of changes to add more logging information to the log files. At some point, we will be migrating to at least v2.1.12 or later, so I need to look at incorporating my mods into the later code. And very little free time to do it. Thanks again for you help, Chris P.S. While my automation php app isn't the best written thing in the world, if anyone wants a copy to use as a starting point for conversion to a Python script, let me know.
