Hmmm... This looks vaguely possible...
The frustrating thing is I'll have to spend some hours on figuring this
out -- which means I have to come back to it later.
I have now created an SSH user and can log onto my shared hosting server
(eightmile.dreamhost.com).
I also see -- in the cpanel -- the ability to create cron jobs on that
same shared hosting server. (Or -- I can do a "crontab -e" command to
create it when logged into the server.)
BUT... I'm told the Mailman server is a separate server. When I try to
ssh onto "lists.clinicians-exchange.org" its denied because apparently
there is a public/private key login I'm not privy to.
On my account at eightmile.dreamhost.com I do see a
"lists.clinicians-exchange.org" folder -- but all that's in it is a
.tar.gz file backup. On this server when I look under /etc I don't see
a mailman program. Same with /var directory. Even so, root owns these
files and directories so I don't think I could change anything in them.
So... I suspect Dream Host would have to do this for me.
**One quick newbie question though: If I continue looking for the
Mailman program, what directory should it be in and what are some names
I can run a recursive "find" command on?**
Thanks,
Michael

Ugh. Dream Host does not give me cron job / command line access.
I'll try begging them to do this, but more likely I'll have to
manually release the Digest each week.
It is unlikely they will let you do this as it would affect all lists
on the server, not just yours.
Google says dreamhost does let you create your own cron jobs, you just
can't get to the "system" ones. You could probably make one that does
what Mark described with curl or something: POST the config change to
the admin page, POST the change-back a minute later.
It'd be even easier if `senddigest` had a command line argument like
"--force", but alas.
