Thanks, Bill...that reminded me to verify that our service description for mailing list offerings advises people to be sure of the name when they request the list. And probably make the statement stronger if it is there --John (who is about to undertake a transfer of mailing lists to a machine with Much newer Linux Much newer Exim Much newer Mailman Probably a different location for the Mailman list directory... I think I'll probably recreate the lists. And then there are the four still on Majordomo on an even older server.) -- John Baxter [EMAIL PROTECTED] Port Ludlow, WA, USA ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ This message was sent to: [email protected] Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
