You can run a mailman cron just the way cron runs it by sudo -u mailman python -S /usr/local/mailman/cron/xxx where xxx is the cron job you want to run. Note that if cron runs the job and it produces any output, it is mailed to the 'mailman' user which in most cases is the Mailman site list. Thus, to see this, you need to ensure that you are a member of the site list with delivery enabled and that the site list's generic_nonmember_action is accept. The alternative is to add [email protected] to the beginning of Mailman's crontab to tell cron to mail any output to you instead of 'mailman'. -- Mark Sapiro <[email protected]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
