[Mailman-Users] upgrade

[Jon Carnes]

Interesting... That is not supposed to happen in version 2.1 (are you
running the full version or one of the betas?)

I'm guessing somewhere along the way Python got upgraded and the
status of the crypt libraries changed (either they were there before
and not now, or vice versa).  Try setting USE_CRYPT=0 in your
mm_cfg.py file.

A better solution would be to upgrade to MM2.1.  It uses sha1 hashing,
which will always be available.
===

I don't think that MM2.1 recognizes the "USE_CRYPT" variable, but since
it is calling the older version of the Password handler, that may work.

Hope that works (or it's not a problem any more...)
