Where can I find an explanation of how qfiles are supposed to work? I'm struggling to make any sense of them. Is there some way to run a qrunner daemon so that it processes all qfiles as and when they occur? -- John

I installed Mailman v2.1.1 some time ago, and would like to upgrade to a later version. How do I go about it? Do I just install a new version over the top of the old one? -- John

Hello everybody, Okay Im a newbie so please be gentle. Ive been using Yahoo Groups, but have tired of the all the ads. So, Ive setup a mail list using MailMan. However I really miss the ability to have monthly and yearly e-mails automatically sent. Is there anyway to automatically send e-mails to the list on specific dates in the future?

Newbie

I am trying to set up an announcement list for a local non-profit film festival. The list may contain subscribers from all over the planet requesting information, etc. Additionally, there will be the local citizens who need to get general information as well as announcements of up coming events. And finally, there will be management, staff and volunteers. I would like to be able to 'filter' mailings. For instance, when we have a local screening, I only want to send the announcement to local people. Is there a facility in Mailman to create sub-lists or filter on a master list? I could set up multiple lists but then I would have to synchronize them in that it is possible that a subscriber could be in multiple categories. Thank you in advance for any help you may give me. Regards, Bob Bob(a)RChaput.com

Hi guys I want to use mailman without actually using the web interface. Are there any known issues with that or you suggest that I have apache installed in any case?
