It's more complicated to set up, but once you set up and save the script, it's only a single command to subscribe one person to all 5 lists. >> Visit the roster at <http://host.name/mailman/roster/list_name directly >> or via the Visit Subscriber List button on the list's listinfo page. > > The link above is broken.

Also, in any case, you can go to the roster from the list's listinfo page. But I realized later that this roster only shows addresses, not names.

No. Mailman does not keep that information. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
