In most cases, we suggest that you install Mailman from our source tarballs as available from <http://www.list.org/download.html>, as opposed to using a binary package version developed by someone else. This is particularly important when talking about the latest binary package version for a particular platform being very old. > Am I doing something wrong here, or is this a typical Mailman problem.

It sounds to me like the version you have installed does not have a complete translation included for supporting German. I haven't heard any complaints like this regarding 2.1.5 in the past, so I would suspect that this may be a problem that is specific to your binary packaged version -- if you were to install the same version from our tarballs, that might work. OTOH, this might be a problem specific to version 2.1.5 that we have corrected in the years since, and you might need to install a more recent version from our source tarballs. We're up to version 2.1.9 now, with 2.1.10 in late beta (awaiting completion of translation to the many different languages we support). Either way, I'd suggest installing from the source tarballs to see if that fixes the problems. -- Brad Knowles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> LinkedIn Profile: <http://tinyurl.com/y8kpxu> ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
