[Mailman-Users] re: list admin server doesn't always respond?

[Tom Moore]

I was having the same trouble. I happen to know that at least one of 
Michael's servers is an OS X Server box, as is mine, and I wonder how 
much that has to do with the problem. I couldn't get a list to 
respond from the admin links (or after submitting from the 
"subscribe" page). I deleted the list, downgraded to beta 4, 
reinstalled beta 5, and so forth, and nothing worked. But then the 
problem just mysteriously went away, and new lists are working just 
fine.

Thanks for this reply:

...how is this done, and what does it do?

Many thanks.
