how can i simulate mailman pages

hi, how can i simulate mailman pages? i want to build my own page to add or remove members without any admin-confirmation.
--> Membership Management... -->Mass Subscription --> Membership Management... -->Mass Removal --> Membership Management... -->Membership List
in the next step i want to send the post data by script. (http://www.php-faq.de/q/q-code-post.html)
does anybody did the same for something? i tested it, but it does not work and i don't know why. thanks for your help
best regards emmi

The problem is probably that the /admin/* pages require the list or site admin password to be in a cookie, and normal users aren't going to have that.

'The problem is probably that the /admin/* pages require the list or site admin password to be in a cookie, and normal users aren't going to have that.'
is it possible to set a cookie by hand. the page which set this is protected with a htaccess password.
i checked the cookie of my site. the content was: 2802000000694879584673280000003834636466663363353463323833613439306638343163 3436613030393334653563343233626562
is this the mailman-admin-password ?
how is it encrypted?
thanks for your help

You don't need to do this. You just send the admin password with the cgi data as shown for example at <http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2004-December/041214.html>.
