At one point, MITs 704 (or 709 or 7090 by then) data center posted a notice which, paraphrased from memory, said "We have SOS (SHARE Operating System) and will attempt to run it on request. We won't be responsible for failures of SOS." By the way, the explanation of the option in the administrator interface seems reasonably clear to me (as a Mailman "customer" not developer). However, I doubt that there are many new list administrators who look there when setting up a list. And, unfortunately, were I preparing a list of options for a "You really ought to look at these options and check that they are set appropriately" paragraph, I probably wouldn't include this one. There are so many which are more important for such a thing. --John ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org 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/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
