OK... thanks for spelling that out for a newbie like me... I continued to get nothing in the Command Shell of webmin so I used telnet to telnet to the server and it all worked as expected in the shell there. I must be a problem with webmin (or maybe webmin is not meant to be used in this way...) A

Re: [Mailman-Users] Bounce message confusion

Thanks to Dan and Stephen for the help with mailman bounces. I understand the overall issues much better as a result and am working with my ISP to try to track down the MTA problem. I'm still puzzled in some details in how to configure bounce processing. If there's a doc somewhere that explains

Right after I first installed Mailman I created a new list called mailman. I would think that then I should be able to access the Mailman admin page for this list by using a URL like http://my.host.com/mailman/admin/mailman/ Is that right? When I do this I get an "Internal Server Error" mess

I run a Mailman list on a hosted Web server. I don't have command-line access to mailman. My only method for modifying the list is from the control panel's GUI administration page. I want to create another list with nearly the same settings as the one I currently have. Any way to duplicate my list
