All of our lists are digestable (that's the default). I did run one of your scripts once-upon-a-time to see how many digest members we had, and there were a few dozen. Unfortunately, I'm still in the state that the only time a digest goes out is when it exceeds 30K in size. >Did you run it from cron or by hand. If by hand, did you run it as 'mailman' and did it produce any output? If from cron, and it produced any output, the output was probably mailed to 'mailman' which is probably the 'mailman' list, and where does it go from there? Ran it by cron. I don't see any activity at all when it runs (when I ran the checkdbs program, python lead the way when I did a "top", but nothing seems to happen when I run senddigests). There was also no output sent to the mailman mailing list (I am the owner and only subscriber on that list, and it accepts mail from anyone). Nothing in the Mailman logs either. >Note: it is a good idea to put a MAILTO= at the beginning of Mailman's crontab to direct any mailed output to a good place. There is normally only mailed output if something goes wrong. Can you give me the exact syntax of that Mark? I am not sure what you mean or how I would do that. I did a man on "cron" but don't see anything there about MAILTO.
