this implies that your problem is of different nature. My guess would be a corrupt database on the server (which can be big fun). I never had such problems with PM, neither any of my family members who still use PM. As said before I only switched to TB3, because of IMAP and GnuPGP and honestly I miss the clean interface and reliability of PM. > >> Sending a message to the list takes weeks to get even an error message. >> > Exactly, but that kind of problem is not unique for this list.

It's nice to administer than mailman though, but mailman is standard nowadays ;-) cheers Matthias
