I have some users who are - for whatever reason - scared to death of the LISTSERV web interface. So I thought I would build a simple addition to our web portal and let them click a radio button or whatever to turn their mail off, change their address, etc., etc. They seem to have no problem getting to OUR web interface ... So I wrotew an app in asp.net to use as the core of the routine which builds an email and sends it from me (the admin) and it works just fine. Except I get an email asking me to confirm the change. Now, my list is closed, and in fact here is the header: kat-skan Review= Owner Subject-Tag= kat-skan Daily-Threshold= 999999,999999 Notify= Yes Language= NoHTML Default-Options= NOACK,REPRO Notebook= Yes,c:\inetpub\wwwroot\archives\kat-skan,Monthly,Private Safe= Yes Digest= Yes,Same,Daily Auto-Delete= Yes Subscription= By Owner Subscription= Confirm Ack= No Confidential= Yes Validate= Yes,Confirm Reply-to= List,Respect Send= Private Errors-To= Owner Owner= [log in to unmask] I do not want to lose the control and lose the 'security' of the list, but it kind of defeats the purpose if I have to approve everything - might as well just make the change myself and be done with it. I have studied the manual, and I am wondering if I have a combination of parameters that is really unnecessary or even conflicting and this is causing my "problem". If I am stuck with having to approve everything then I guess that's just the way it is, but I have a feeling I may have something set incorrectly. Thank you in advance for your help. Lanny Pierce
