I am a new administrator of a mailman 2.1.5 package on a Linux Fedora Core 1 box, as well as being new subscriber to this group, so my apologies in advance if my questions have been asked and answered elsewhere. I have looked through the FAQ at www.python.org (excellent document, btw) and didn't really find any answers to the following there.
So... 1. Is it possible to cause 'config_list -i' to take input from stdin instead of a file? 2. I can force a list to be associated with a particular virtual host by using 'config_list' to modify "web_page_url" (but it complains when doing so). Is there a better way to do this? And, while we're on the topic of "web_page_url", why is "web_page_url" not listed among the parameters reported by 'config_list -o'? 3. Is there any reason to have the "News" qrunner active if I'm not passing any mail to a news server? (I have turned it off in my mm_cfg.py.) 4. Can I invoke the qrunner task from cron ('qrunner -o -r All') on a regular basis in lieu of running qrunner as a background daemon? I think this is the way it used to work. It would seem this might be a reasonable tradeoff of CPU cycles for memory for me in my slice of a low-memory VPS. (It appears to me that running qrunner as a daemon, with the associated processes takes about 25 Megs of memory.) Will this cause any problems (besides making the cron logs balloon)? 5. The FAQ discusses several ways of forcing mailman to use a secure apache connection (https). Is there a way of forcing the admin functions to a secure connection, without requiring the same for the list users? (Actually, this may be moot, as it appears one can explicitly use https initially to protect the admin password when logging in; encrypting the rest of the session is less important to me. But, I'd like to force all administrative users to use a secure link, at least during the authentication phase.)
