Ditto for some of the other options (like not > getting mail from the list), but digest is critical. Use the command line ~mailman/bin/add_member. You can specify a whole file for digest users and different file for regular users. > > 2. We'd like to import real names for each user (which we have - in the > files we extract from the old system). Is there a way to do this? Put the emails in your file one per line - and use the syntax found in the archives for adding the full name. I'm away from the archives right now or I would look it up for you. It's something like: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (full name) Or at least I think that is one of the many acceptable formats. To be sure look in the archives of this list. I don't capture full name at my sites.
