Correct, insofar as it goes. However, these are command-line tools, and one of the things I'd like to see is a move to make it possible to do everything that can be done from the web interface, just as easily (if not more so) as you can do from the CLI. But that's a very long-term goal. > Someone else can probably give a better analysis, but from my > understanding, something like what you're suggesting would represent a > significant departure from the current Mailman architecture, and this > would constitute a fairly major rewrite. Yeah, that would be a huge rewrite. Now, Mailman3 will be a complete rewrite, and this kind of thing would be a perfectly valid subject to discuss on that list. Of course, no one knows when Mailman3 will arrive, so again this is a long-term issue. -- Brad Knowles, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trend Micro has announced that they will cancel the stop.mail-abuse.org mail forwarding service as of 15 November 2006.
