CPanel has made source-code level changes to the version of Mailman they ship, so no version of Mailman you install from our sources will include that changed functionality. I think that this solution is a non-starter for CPanel. For Plesk, they use an ancient version of Python, and an ancient version of all the Python libraries, but if you know what you're doing and you hold your mouth right while doing the correct dance while waving a dead chicken, you can jury-rig things so that you can actually replace the version of Mailman that is installed without disturbing Plesk too much. However, the moment you do this, you wipe out any possibility of ever getting any kind of support on anything else related to Plesk -- your hosting provider isn't going to touch the machine unless it's their official plain-jane installed version, and the Plesk folks aren't even going to talk to you at all. So, this probably isn't a good option for use with Plesk, either. -- Brad Knowles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Consultant & Author LinkedIn Profile: <http://tinyurl.com/y8kpxu> Slides from Invited Talks: <http://tinyurl.com/tj6q4> ------------------------------------------------------ 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
