What if anything do you have in mm_cfg.py for SMTPHOST and SMTPPORT? If nothing, Have you perhaps changed them in Defaults.py (Nothing in Defaults.py should ever be changed)? If these are all OK, I can only think of 3 possibilities for a difference: 1) your DELIVERY_MODULE is not 'SMTPDirect' in which case, what is it? 2) you are not running the test script with the same Python version as Mailman is using (not a likely cause) 3) you are not running the test script as the same user:group as Mailman's OutgoingRunner. Also, does Mailman successfully send anything? E.g. password reminders or hold notifications. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
