The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Bobby Mitchell <address@concealed>]

Sympa is creating a shared directory for a new list that does not have 
any folders previously created. I created a list called anothertest and 
ls -l shows when these dirs were created. Is there a way to stop Sympa 
from creating the shared folder?

[root@sympa01 ~]# cd /home/sympa/expl/anothertest/
[root@sympa01 anothertest]# ls -l
total 24
-rw-r----- 1 sympa sympa  510 2007-10-18 10:16 config
-rw-r----- 1 sympa sympa    0 2007-10-18 10:16 config.lock
-rw-r----- 1 sympa sympa   10 2007-10-18 10:16 include_admin_user.lock
-rw-r----- 1 sympa sympa   12 2007-10-18 10:16 info
drwxr-x--- 2 sympa sympa 4096 2007-10-18 10:16 shared

[root@sympa01 anothertest]#

Thanks again,
Bobby
