Hi all,
I started a new thread for this as it no longer applies to cron, but rather digests. I just ran the senddigests cron option (again, for the first time ever) but it didn't seem to do anything. I can't really understand what it does anyway (from the description given). All of our lists allow users to select the digest option ("digestable=yes"), and the digests are sent out when the 30k threshold is reached ("digest_size_threshold=30"). The next option asks if a digest should be sent out DAILY when the threshold isn't reached ("digest_send_periodic=yes"). So that is how all of our lists have been set all this time, and the digest mails seem to have been working, despite not having run anything in crontab. The crontab entry for senddigests says: # Noon, mail digests for lists that do periodic as well as threshhold delivery. 0 12 * * * /usr/bin/python -S /mail/mailman/cron/senddigests Not sure what this does differently, other than maybe force the digests to go out at noon, rather than the vague "DAILY" option from above. Can anyone share any light? I just ran it and nothing seemed to happen.
