"all those years ago" and before, things like "real" databases, checkpointing, recovery and rollback, and adding 7000 users at once to a mailing list were not things we thought much about in a mailing list manager. The fact that Mailman has "been been trouble- and maintenance-free" for you for all those years is a tribute to the fact that we got at least most of it right. If you want a mailing list manager with a modern design, I'd recommend Mailman 3. And "abort the running op because my browser timed out" is not Mailman's doing. That's your web server and its CGI interface. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
