I haven't checked it out yet but I will and it will probably answer
this.. But here goes.. I have a domain that is hosted on a remote machine at
my ISP. All og the domain mail is forwarded to a personal account.. Is it
possible for this SmartList to run without any privilidges other than what a
normal user would have? I would like to impliment this without the ISP
really helping on the issue.. I am sure they would probably want to charge
me something for setting up a mailing list.. Plus it is going to be very low
volume..

Why bother? If you want a mailing list management package that works with
procmail, SmartList already exists. There's really no need to write your own
from scratch.
Amen... I'm hosting 3 lists with it (soon the be 5) and it's
outstanding!
Cheers!

This isn't true in practice -- what we've missed out is Stradivarius's
constant. And then the aside: "For those of you who don't know, that's
been called by others the fiddle factor..."
