Yes and No. If you want a fully integrated mail list, you'll have to edit python scripts. For some reason the developers havn't templated the entire system, just a few special pages. There is also no native support for CSS. My recent thread is here: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/msg26387.html Here's my "solution" post: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/msg26415.html Maybe Brad Knowles can add this info to the FAQ? > > Two, We already have a list set up, can I import about 6,000 > contacts into the mailman software? > There is a mass-subscribe feature, which I havn't yet used, but plan to on about 50K emails.

I'm converting OUT of ezmlm, which is a qmail-compatible email list software. If you're not adminning your own server, though, forget that ;) -- Russell Mann ------------------------------------------------------ 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 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/
