Yesterday I got reminders from lists that I am a member of, but am not an administrator. However, the box that I administer (for the past 3 days) didn't send out any reminder.
Does it do it automatically on the first day of the month, or rather a month after being setup?
Also, is there a way of sending out the reminders manually? I've looked in the bin dir, but nothing strikes me as being obvious.
Thanks in advance. adam

Apache documentation will be most helpful here, it's only indirectly anything to do with mailman.
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/howto/htaccess.html
That should help.

Check out the crontab for Mailman. During the install you should have put several entries into the cron for the local user that runs Mailman (usually the user is "mailman").
The cron entries can be found in: ~mailman/cron/crontab.in
One of these entries handles the sending out of monthly list passwords. If you want to run it manually, simply type the command: /usr/bin/python -S /usr/local/mailman/cron/mailpasswds
This assumes that your python 2.2.x is in /usr/bin and that mailman is installed in the default location of /usr/local/mailman.
Good Luck - Jon Carnes

The default is the first of each month. This is done via cron so you might want to make sure your mailman crontab is setup right.
There is also an option, DEFAULT_SEND_REMINDERS, which you can set to enable or disable password reminders site-wide. If that's been set to 0 or the particular list you admin has password reminders disabled, that could be another possible reason you didn't get a reminder.
Also, is there a way of sending out the reminders manually? I've looked in the bin dir, but nothing strikes me as being obvious.
Once you're looking over your mailman crontab, you'll notice that there's a script in ~mailman/cron called mailpasswds. You can use it to mail out reminders. It takes an optional argument (-l or --listname) that specifies which list to mail reminders for. The default is to mail for all lists. Use --help to get details.
