That's well and good, but until I can make the time to convert my whole
MTA setup over to Postfix, I'm going to have to use Sendmail.py as the
interface to my outgoing-only Postfix installation.  Sendmail (via
SMTPDirect.py) simply does not work at all well with Mailman 2.0beta2.

And so far it does seem to be working just fine.  What sort of problems
would you expect me to be seeing?

Brian.

PS: To recap, I've been using Majordomo with bulk_mailer and Sendmail
for my lists.  Sendmail is still my MTA but I've installed Postfix in
outgoing only mode for Mailman to use.  I'll switch to Postfix for the
whole enchilada eventually, but that will take some time to set up.
