2014-08-16 Thread Richard Ibbotson
Hi I know that this has been going around the internet lately. I've done the usual web search. Not really found anything that might work for me. I've installed a CentOS 7 web server. I'm building a site around it. Mailman is my list management software. I've used it for more than ten

Hi Further to the last one. I did reinstall from the CentOS RPM. Some things started to work but the list admin page stills gives me the same error. I have tried to build from source but that fails miserably. This is the first time that I've installed Mailman and so I'm not sure what I've

S I finally decide to sit down and try to figure out why http://www.team.net/mailman/admin and http://autox.team.net/mailman/admin return different results, even though it is the same machine. Checking on some list configs, I do bin/config_list -o - listname and get this from one list, but
