What settings are you using for the mailman-checkins list? I'm trying to duplicate your results for our project's cvs-commits list. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
Background: I'm using syncmail (v3.1.5 by Barry Warsaw) for our project's cvs-commits list. I'll update to v3.1.6 later today. I followed the SourceForge documentation to set it up, but it doesn't have any information on the proper settings for Mailman. Should I take this up with the SourceForge staff instead?

Wow, neat. I didn't even realize syncmail was Officially Documented.
BTW, I think you mean version 3.16 of syncmail, which is the latest committed version that both the Mailman and Python projects use.
On the list configuration side, you can basically use a very generic Mailman list. python-checkins and mailman-checkins are both wide open.
Have you tried it, and does it work? If not, what happens?

Barry, Yes it works well. I tested it right after installation. :) http://www.mail-archive.com/leaf-cvs-commits%40lists.sourceforge.net/
I guess I didn't phrase my question well. How do I configure Mailman to only accept posts from CVS? Should I use the implicitly approved people list for this?
Currently our list is moderated, and anyone can subscribe.
Note: we have multiple developers that will be committing to our CVS repository.
Also, I didn't get around to updating to syncmail 3.16 yet. I'll try to get that done today. Thanks for the great script. :)
