What Mailman version is this? The default in the distribution is 500 and should only be changed in mm_cfg.py. >I'm wondering, then: given this, would >setting this to, say, 1 cause mailman to deliver one file per email? >(This would be an example, of course; doing something like this would >most likely bring my server down to its knees.) One recipient per email (smtp) transaction with the MTA (in other words, one file per recipient), but instead of setting SMTP_MAX_RCPTS = 1, set VERP_DELIVERY_INTERVAL = 1 which will cause every post to be sent individually with a VERP like envelope sender for improved bounce processing and message tracking. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
