(This also means > I have multiple MM installations.) hrmm that seems like an interesting way to do things. do you use an automated system to create each one? i think a variation on this might fit our needs pretty well (although a way to simply change the email address sent by mailman would, of course, be nicer :>) do you use symbolic links for commands and just create a new directory structure for the data directories and stuff? seems like having lots of full mailman installations might be a major headache when it comes time to upgrade (keep in mind that we have about 10-12k customers and are now starting to allow unlimited discussion lists on all plans)... -- Will Yardley input: william < @ hq . newdream . net . > ------------------------------------------------------ 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
