Really it depends on the version of Mailman that you are running. In
general, if you are *NOT* running v2.08, then you should upgrade immediately.
For earlier versions, there were problems with some non-standard email
formats. You might look at the messages that are awaiting processing and

The answer though, is that it really depends on the hardware and the network
that are running the Mailman install, plus the frequency of posts to the

old: 250,000 users.

While you're doing that, have your mail manager (the guy running your iPlanet

Hey
Is there anyway to include a personal footer on the emails which could
include the subscribers email address? Something like:

This would make it easier to manage subscribers who can't figure out how to
