Try su mailman cron/senddigests It probably won't be any different, but it's worth a try. If it does nothing, what is the contents of the cron/senddigests script. There appears to be something wrong with it. You could compare it to <http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mailman-coders/mailman/2.1/annotate/419/cron/senddigests> to see if you have any modifications. >There was also no output sent to the mailman mailing list (I am the >owner >and only subscriber on that list, and it accepts mail from anyone). > >Nothing in the Mailman logs either. > >>Note: it is a good idea to put a MAILTO= at the beginning of Mailman's >crontab to direct any mailed output to a good place.

See "man 5 crontab". By default, cron mails any output to the 'owner' of the crontab, but if you set MAILTO, e.g. mailto=u...@example.com or MAILTO=localuser any output will go there. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
