woops. thanks.
lets see, each mailling needs to have an attribute defined (confirm_subscribe). (1= on, 0=off). try this:
import mm_utils, maillist
for listname in mm_utils.list_names(): list = maillist.MailList(listname) list.confirm_subscribe = 0 # or 1 list.Save()

i anticipated as much, and will be working on making it separate the list mmebers table into chunks if the list is large enough over the next few days.
One problem that will need to be solved in this respect is authentication. Is it too annoying to require the password for viewing each chunk? is it acceptable to use cookies for authentication of this section? what should the cutoff size of the list be for chunkifying the section?
thanks for your feedback
