I AM INTERESTED IN GETTING THI S PROGRAM. WILL YOU SEN ME THE NECESSARY INFORMATION I WILL NEED FOR THE DOWNLOAD. I AM USING WINDOWS XP.
I TRIED LAST FRIDAY MORNING TO GET IT DOWNLOADED BUT HAD SOME SUCCESS , BUT VERY LITTLE.

You have a number of problems here....

1. The requirements to download and run Mailman are detailed in http://www.list.org/download.html

   Windows XP is not capable of running Mailman without substantial work, although a machine capable of running XP should be convertable into a reasonable Unix box by installing either Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD or OpenBSD

2. You will need another hosting site to run this stuff - I hate to think how much work it would be to make this run of an AOL based dialup.

I DO HAVE A CONFIRMATION NUMBER IT IS 520974.

3. Thats presumably the list subscription confirmation number The message you got the confirmation request in tells you what you need to do with it... if you haven't gathered that then just possibly you shouldn't be thinking of running internet based mailing lists yourself.

THANK YOU

Any chance you can examine your keyboard and find the largish key on the left hand side marked caps lock. Press it once - a light either within the key or normally placed towards the top right of your keyboard will then go out. This makes your text *much* easier to read and you not appear to be shouting all the time....
