Nick, Has Cpanel documented the changes they have made to Mailman? If not, can Cpanel supply the Mailman dev team with the scripts they use to mould it to fit? Cheers, Martin.

= =The problem with cpanel is that it messes with the program configs in order =to =mould things into its proprietary setup. Once that way, its hard to mess =with =things, because they are not as they would normally be set up in a standard =install. So in this example, the Mailman install is NOT the same as you =would =find on a webhost without cpanel.

=Its ok for people who just want to set up a server and let their users =modify =basic stuff, but its not for those who want to install custom software, or =tweak stuff. I tried it on a box a while ago, and promptly reformatted =after =trying to figure out where they moved stuff, etc...
