I think that is how it's should be, since on a fresh install, these commands are entered *before* you `make install`. On Thursday, March 28, 2002, at 09:06 AM, DK Smith wrote: > > > This text: > > % cd $prefix > % chgrp mailman . > % c

[Mailman-Users] Files and Mailman... a question.

Yahoo groups has a service that allows users to upload files, and it notifies the users of new uploads. Can this, or has this been done with Mailmna? thanks -- Paul L. Schumacher Winona State University Computer Science Department -- Mailma

[Mailman-Users] weird locking problems

i've been having some problems with our mailman installation at the office. it's mailman 2.0.8 from the debian package (so the installation is a bit weird, to conform with debian policy etc. etc.), but seems to work pretty well most of the time. the archives are from an older mailman installatio

Re: [Mailman-Users] Archive access with only password?

You think if someone has the admin password, they aren't capable of doing much more damage than accessing the archives? Ron, I think your problem is specific to you; my admin password still lets me into anything, including archives, and I would expect that to stay the same. Gary Wang wrote: > >

[Mailman-Users] publicly advertised lists in v.2.1b1

I just installed v2.1b1, and I have to say that its support for multi-language lists is excellent! One thing I can't seem to get working is the main /mailman/admin page. It is supposed to list the "publicly available" mailing lists, but I don't know what that means. I haven't found the setting
