Hi, I am looking at combining several hosting accounts into a single Virtual Private Server. One of these is being used to support a couple of mailing list running on Mailman 2.1.9 (I know that isn't current, but that is what they give me). The new server will be running CentOS 5, with Plesk Parallels as a control panel (I am not afraid to get down to the command line to do things, but also would claim to be an expert at it either, and the control panel makes some routine tasks easier).
The question comes in that the CentOS 5 distribution only has a RPM for Mailman 2.1.9, instead of the recently released 2.1.14, so the question comes do I use the RPM from the distribution and run a version several years old, or is it better to install from a direct download. I am working of a fresh install so I don't need to worry about migrating existing list on the server, but I definitely want to be able to import the existing lists from the old server. (And will probably do at least one dry run of the migration to a different domain name just to make sure I know how to do this and that things work before moving the live site).
