The 'standard' way is mail gets queued in one of Mailman's queues by being piped to Mailman's mail/mailman wrapper with appropriate arguments. How this process is accomplished with standard qmail alias files is described in the article at <http://www.kroon.co.za/howto.php?howto=qmail_mailman> referenced in Jaco Kroon's reply in this thread. There is another way to deliver mail to Mailman using a maildir. See the doc string at the beginning of Mailman/Queue/MaildirRunner.py for more information. In order to use this method, you need to put USE_MAILDIR = Yes QRUNNERS.append(('MaildirRunner', 1)) in mm_cfg.py. You can also specify a path to the maildir with MAILDIR_DIR = '/path/to/maildir' if you don't want to use the default which is Mailman's qfiles/maildir/. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
