Hi all - can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Here are the password entried from my list "blobtest"

# admin_passwd         [word] (blobtest.admin) <majordomo>
 # The password for handling administrative tasks on the list.
admin_passwd        =   blobtest.admin
# approve_passwd       [word] (blobtest.pass) <resend>
# moderated list, or to bypass resend checks.
approve_passwd      =   blobtest.pass

When I send a requets to majordomo like:

approve blobtest.pass subscribe blobtest fred@blobs


I get an error back telling me I'm not using the right password - note I
have used the approve_passwd.


If I sent the same command, using the admin_passwd - it works fine:

ie

approve blobtest.admin subscribe blobtest fred@blobs



Have I misunderstood what the admin and approve passwords are for?


Thanks

M
