That doesn't work... it just causes Mailman to reply with detailed
instructions on how to unsubscribe via email. The detailed instructions
mention needing a password, which prompts most users (because few ever set a
password) to have to use the web interface. In the end it takes 15 steps to

I'm using mailman for a mailing list on my

Perhaps you could take a minute to sketch the advantages of the options

establishing a preference among MnoGoSearch, HT:Dig, and Pipermail

I was wondering if mailman supports a MySQL backend, because one of my lists
has hit over 100k addresses, and performance is REALLY bad. If mailman
doesn't support a MySQL backend, does anyone know of any mailing list

Mailman needs to run as user mailman, presumably 514 is the gid of whoever
you were logged in as when you got that error.
If mailman has run in the past and nobody has changed anything on you,
