Hi there, I'm running an Ubuntu Server 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) with the repository mailman in version > ii mailman 1:2.1.13-1ubuntu0.2 Powerful, web-based mailing list manager
Everything is running fine, so emails arriving at postfix get transfered nearby immediate towards mailman and vice-versa. I'm running Mailman in a multi-domain-MySQL-based setup, as we have to run a lot of different domains in our company. But as said above, this all works. The problem is, that if Mailman gets an email from Postfix, it sits down and does "something" for roundabout 20 seconds. Then it sends out the emails towards Postfix, and Postfix delivers. For normal mailing list operation this is not a problem as it sends out one bulk email out to Postfix - but when I do a mass subscription of for example 100 people, Mailman will start to send out the personalized welcome emails one after another - and will also need 20 seconds per email. So it takes 100x 20 seconds = 2000 seconds = 33 minutes till everybody gets his/her welcome email. Is this usual behaviour of Mailman to do "something" that long? The server is a powerful one with plenty of GHz and RAM. What the hell could this "something" be? :-) Following you will find my configuration file and the smtp log of mailman: /etc/mailman/mm_cfg.py: > from Defaults import * > MAILMAN_SITE_LIST = 'mailman' > DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN = 'http://%s/mailman/' > PRIVATE_ARCHIVE_URL = '/mailman/private' > IMAGE_LOGOS = '/mailman/images/mailman/' > SHORTCUT_ICON = 'favicon.ico' > DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'lists.mycompany.eu' > DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'lists.mycompany.eu' > add_virtualhost(DEFAULT_URL_HOST, DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST) > DEFAULT_SERVER_LANGUAGE = 'en' > USE_ENVELOPE_SENDER = 0 # Still used?
