I have a mailing list that suddenly died, theoretically without any changes being made. I've seen some posts about this behavior, but can't figure out what's happening.

Sept. 24, 2009

I'm preparing for a time soon when I'll have to administer a large active mailman list via a very limited connection (don't ask, but thank goodness for PuTTy and internet over cel networks deep in Brasil). I've read the FAQ 3.61 and will examine Skip Montanaro's mmfold.py script; in the meantime I'm also re-familiarizing myself with all the scripts in {mailman}/bin. Also am testing the mailman GUI with command line browsers w3m, lynx, and links. I'd be interested in hearing of … [View More]

Hello, We are using Mailman thru a provider but are having problems that their tech support can not help us with so I hoping you might be able to.

hi, hi was reading the features of mailman. I still can't understand if is possible to use it in the way I need. sorry if I bother you, but I really can't figure it out. I need to set a form, and the subriscriers will receive the mail in the order I decide (like a sequential autoresponder), so everyone will receive soon the mail N°1, two days after the registration the mail N° 2 and so on. but I also need to send sometimes mail like a mailing list (for example today i wanna invite … [View More]
