Try this script...
#!/bin/bash
# Mail reminders to list admins
#
# dump all the list names to LISTS
LISTS="`~mailman/bin/list_lists |grep "^ " |awk '{ print $1 }' `"
#
for i in $LISTS
do
mail -s "To the Admin of list: $i" $i-admin <~mailman/reminder.msg
done
# /home/mailman/reminder.msg is the reminder message sent to each admin
===
Save the above script as /usr/local/sbin/mm_reminder
Create a file with a reminder message in it and save it in
~mailman/reminder.msg
Edit your crontab and add the following line:
10 2 15 3,6,9,12 * /usr/local/sbin/mm_reminder
Viola! Your admins are reminded every March, June, Sept, Dec 15 at 2:10am
