POC! Copy the file ~mailman/cron/senddigests to ~mailman/cron/send<listname>digest Next, edit the new file so that it only runs the digest for <listname> (get rid of the first "for" statement and in the second statement, change 'listname' to '"<listname>"')
I think that should work. If not play with it a bit on a test list. It shouldn't take more than an hour to get it working the way you want. Now when you want to send a digest for that specific list run: /usr/local/bin/python -S /home/mailman/cron/send<listname>digest Hope this helps, Jon Carnes ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael Johnson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, February 20, 2002 2:28 AM Subject: RE: [Mailman-Users] send digest command > > No idea.
