I understand that it's perfectly possible to use mailman on a server that has only dial-up access to the Internet. However, I'd like to get a firm grasp of the downsides of doing this before I go to the effort of installing it.
My setup is this: Linux box running Fetchmail, Postfix, Procmail, Qpopper, Apache. This sits on a LAN and access the net through an ISDN router. My plan was to have list messages go to a POP server at my hosting provided from where I would download them with Fetchmail, which would then forward them to user 'mailman' on this server. Any problem with that? Now, obviously I'm going to lose the web-based features for users, so it's going to be an email-only system. What I'd like to know is how much of a loss that would really be. I can get a list of the features I'd be missing from the manuals etc - what I really want to know is how important people feel this is - ie, a subjective response. Am I really crippling the system this way (and would therefore be better off opening a group on Yahoo), or would I be losing only moderately useful features? All informed opinions would be gratefully received. -- @+ Steve ------------------------------------------------------ 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/
