Hi, I attempted to use the command line and after 8 minutes, still just trying to unsubscribe. I tried it both passing the one email in a file and via the STDIN.
I then checks the lock directory and there was about 25 different locks on that one list. So I removed all the locks and killed off any mailman related process either command line or from the browser. I tried it again and was successful. Still, I will consider the option of upgrading the server or creating a RAM disk... Regards, Jonathan Chum Systems Developer ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A I S M e d i a , I n c .

You'll find several good suggestions on dealing with this in the archives. Try using the command line tools to make the change you want. If that is too inconvenient, then you'll want to look at setting up a Ram Disk. Use the Ram Disk like an ordinary partition, load the lists config directories into the Ram Disk, then mount the Ram Disk in place of the lists config directories. Several admins have done this for especially large mailing lists. It works a treat. Of course, another alternative is upgrade your disk-subsystem and processor so that disk requests happen faster and complete before the time-out.
