Older Python version...which should not be a problem. It's warning you that, when bin/newlist prompts you for a password for the administrator of the new list, the call to getpass() *might* show what you type. This is a problem if 1. it actually does show what you typed (you already know whether it did); and 2. you're in the habit of setting up mailing lists with bad guys looking over your shoulder. >This message was created automatically by mail delivery software (Exim). > >"A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its >recipients.

It would likely be helpful if you mentioned what mail transfer agent (MTA: sendmail, Exim, Postfix, qmail, etc) you are using, and what Linux/Unix version. --John -- John Baxter [EMAIL PROTECTED] Port Ludlow, WA, USA ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py
