	Be careful with Python 2.4.  Mailman 2.1.5 is not yet ready for 
Python 2.4.  If you're going to run Python 2.4, you need to be using 
the latest beta of Mailman 2.1.6.  Otherwise, you need to go back to 
the latest version of Python 2.3 if you're going to be using Mailman 
2.1.5.

	If you've got "immediate moderator notice" turned on, that should 
work for all types of notices, not just subscription requests.
