Hello,
I have tried installing mailman on my
server (Mandrake 8.1) both as an rpm (version 2.0.7, 2.0.10) and from
source ( 2.0.12 ), and everything seems fine.
The check_perms scripts says
everything is okay. I can view, edit aso on the webpages.
But when I send a message to a

Hi
I just installed the mailman 2.1b3 and would like
to use htdig to search the archives. But the 2 plugins needed only has up to
version 2.1b2. Any idea when the plugins will be available for beta 3? Or are
they available somewhere apart from the plugins page on soureforge?
Thanks
Roelf

Yes. (My machine is using PST8PDT as the timezone, if that detail is important.)

I added a message to be prepended to the welcome message. It does that just
fine, but although the message only has 1 blank line in between paragraphs,
there are 3 blank lines in between each paragraph when it gets received.

First of all, go read your mailman error logs. It tells you to do that in

My 2.0.11 archives are showing a strange symptom, namely that the last message time

Yeah, I have my Mailman machine, along with three webservers and my private home
network, on a DSL line, and I don't think the proposed mail volume would be any

I installed MM yesterday and got it working. However changes added to
mm_cfg.py do not appear to have any effect. However if I break the rules
and change Defaults.py it does have the desired effect. bin/check_perms
reports that everything is fine.
A search of the archives didn't yield any leads.
I did modify those options. sendmail deamon is running as root and
apache is running as nobody.
so
$>./configure --with-mail-gid=root --with-cgi-gid=nobody
The error is complaining that it wanted gid 0 (root) but got gid 12
(mail)
so I recompiled from scratch w/ --with-mail-gid=mail

Re. Paying for tech support: good idea, IMHO. If most of the money in the

software, rather than to pay monster corporations for the licensing rights

No insinuation was made, that GPL "prevents" paid support.
There are hundreds, probably thousands of companies world
wide, whether on the NYSE, or small business operators,
who host sites & already have Mailman installed. Anyone

There are a lot of excellent consultants that do Mailman support. If you

To risk sliding into an OT area, it is not unreasonable for someone to
offer to pay for support for an open source product. Certainly nothing
in the GPL prevents taking payment to provide support for a GPL
product. There are even some firms out there that are traded on the
NYSE whose business is
Ha, ha.. This is open source, not microsloth, there is

Personally, I find DSL and Cable lines too unreliable.
The only "paid" support you can get for Mailman is by
