If most lists are configured to maintain changelogs, you may be able to obtain the information you need from the changelog files for the individual lists. You will need to retrieve a copy of the changelog file for each list, store all of the changelog files in one location, and write a script to extract the required information from the changelog files. 2. If most lists have archives, write a script to walk the list archives tree and return the modification date for the most recent log file for each list. Both suggestions rely on configuration settings which may not be in use on some lists, so neither is guaranteed to produce a complete report. -- Paul Russell, Senior Systems Administrator OIT Messaging Services Team University of Notre Dame [log in to unmask]
