remove_members *really* slow
by Ed Wilts July 29, 2003

July 29, 2003

A few weeks ago, I used add_members to add about 44K users to a mailing list. I remember it taking only a few minutes at most. Today I needed to flush all the list members, and it's taking forever. On a P III/500, it's been running for 3 hours, used 2.5 hours of CPU, and the list is down to 28K members. Is there a faster way of doing this operation in 2.0.13? Should I just have deleted the list and recreated it? Thanks, .../Ed -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:ewilts@ewilts.org

July 29, 2003

Hi, I have posted to the [LO] lo(a)listowner.org mailing list about the question below two times (about 1 month ago and again last Friday) and hadn't received a response.

Here's the question: I would like to allow a listowner to subscribe/unsubscribe users by sending emails to Mailman. Those emails would come from the list owner's email address and … [View More]

Am I doing something wrong?
by Christine De La Rosa July 29, 2003

July 29, 2003

Am I missing some ettiquette for this list? I have sent two questions to the list with no responses. I am wondering if they have never been seen before therefore no one has the answer, or if they are so simple they seem too stupid to answer. I am having so many problems with the new mailman upgrade, I really need help. If I am on the wrong list can someone point me to the right area to ask for help? Thanks Chris
