i am still struggling to find out what caused the error. after all i have just added one line to Default.py. why should it complain about the version number? i would appreciate it if someone could give me some pointers.
anyway, this would be a nice feature in mailman. i hope it will no longer be a patch in the next version. thanks, saurav Thus spake Saurav Pathak: + + + + Thus spake Richard Barrett: + + + As it stands, the patch has to be applied to the Mailman source + + distribution and there are only versions for MM 2.1.2 and MM 2.1.3 + + + + That said, it will probably work with earlier versions of MM 2.1 or can + + be trivially adapted to work with them.
