Just upgraded to Mailman 2.0.13 from 2.0.8 a couple of weeks ago. Last week I upgraded Sendmail from 8.12.3 to 8.12.7. I got a bunch of these back today (after the monthly reminders were sent out). Is this a Mailman issue or sendmail? The original message was received at Sat, 1 Mar 2003 05

Look at the FAQ for an automated way of deleting the held messages. The FAQ also discusses the location of the data files and how held messages are processed. I assume you are running version 2.0.x since version 2.1.x has the features you requested. Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faq

Definitely install it on your Linux box. If you read the dependencies you will see that the box needs to have a Mail-server running on it (Sendmail or Postfix work just fine). You also need Apache (the web-server) configured and running - the standard configuration should work just fine. You wil
