fwd: Cron <mailman@myhost> /usr/bin/python /home/mailman/cron/senddigests (fwd)
I have upgraded mailman to the new release, 1.0b7, on my redhat 5 system.
$ uname -a Linux jerrya 2.0.32 #4 Wed Jan 7 23:14:32 CST 1998 i486 unknown
I still receive the following message every day when the digests go out. They are going out successfully, but this message still gets delivered.

Any ideas?
Thanks.

Here's a patch. Could you and other Linux folks please test?
