I have a client who wants to setup a very *large* mailing list. Right now
she has about 4500 people on the list (including myself).
4500 is not large. I've run lists on mailman over 40K. I run lists where the testing group is probably 4500...
Is there an error log I can take a look at it?
~mailman/logs
also, the logs generated by the mail delivery beast as well.
And also, do you know offhand if I am asking for trouble with such a large list? Are there problems that crop up when I have such a large list?
If mailman is not able to handle such a large mailing list, what do you recommend?
mailman's not the problem. if it's a capacity issue, it's the computer that's likely too slow/small, but even there, I wouldn't except problems with 4,500 users on any platform remotely recent.
