Mailman-Users mailing
Until last week, I was pretty lucky with Mailman. I installed it, and
it did its thing. Beautifully.
Last week my FreeBSD system had a disk crash. The drive only makes
sickening clicking sounds and SpinRite can't touch it.
Luckily, I'd been doing weekly backups, so I didn't lose more than a
Due to demand, I'm porting a few usenet newsgroups to mailing lists, and
that is working pretty well.
However, every now and then I'd like to send administrivia to just the
mailing list subscribers. Is there an easy way to do that? Or even a
not-so-easy way?
Thanks,
Mike

I've been trying to upgrade my FreeBSD 4.8 system from Postfix 1.1.12 to
2.2. Every time I install it, it works fine. However Mailman stops dead.
When I uninstall 2.2 and revert to 1.1.12, Mailman is happy again.
Looking at the current versions, I suppose I should try for Postfix 2.3

I recently started looking at Webmin, and it's pretty nice.
So, I started looking for a Mailman module for Webmin. Sadly, the only

I've been using gate_news to port a number of news
groups to mailing lists. It's worked well for several
months, up until a week or so ago. I am using FreeBSD
4.3, Mailman 2.0.8, and Postfix (sorry, I forgot which
version).
Now, I'm re-getting older messages. Today, the 21st,

She wants Mailman to just drop the message into a

helped.
From what I've seen and read here, and my own
experiences, cleaning up the environment and the list
makes life a lot easier for Mailman.

I'd like to change the name of a Mailman hosted
mailing list. The only way I see to do that is to delete
it and start over, but I really don't want to do that.
Is there a clean way to rename a mailing list?

OK... the sendmail problems that have been discussed

converting to postfix.
So, I was wondering... what do I need to do to Mailman
to tell it to use postfix instead of sendmail?
