Hi,

I did change the following to satisfy my list-admins/moderators to changes
the Pending approvals and membership options.

I replaced (admindb.py) all the "admindburl = .... " lines to
 # admindburl = mm_cfg.DEFAULT_URL + 'admindb/' + mlist.real_name
And, i replaced (admin.py) all the "adminurl = .... " lines to
  # adminurl = mm_cfg.DEFAULT_URL + 'admin/' + mlist.real_name

It is not a standard way, but it works on my situation.

Thanx for the support on this.(figured it on my own, and have no programming
skills!.. hmm... i lie.. C64 basic :-) )

The next "project"... translate the whole site to Dutch.
I have mailed the Dutch translator, but no answers. So i do it on my own way
(also not standard :( )

I know, i am now stuck with this version ... , when i am going to upgrade to
Mm3 ... i must set all the damn things again :-( But hey, it is a hobby :-)

Maybe i program at my own the "Send also to the moderators the approval/held
messages by mail for approving, instead of admins only...".

Danny Terweij (very happy at the moment!).
