Mailman is unable to establish an SMTP (or any) connection to port 25 on localhost. This is due to a system configuration problem outside of Mailman. You'll probably see a similar error if you try telnet localhost 25 at a shell prompt. See http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq06.014.htp for more details. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
