Mailman does Internet e-mail. Are these phones/PDAs doing Internet e-mail? If so, then the mail clients shouldn't have any problems with the messages Mailman is sending out -- I know I don't have any such problems on my Palm Treo 680. Heck, in an emergency I can even handle the web-based moderation queue for Mailman-hosted mailing lists on my Treo -- that's one advantage of a simple web user interface. Now, if these phones/PDAs are doing SMS messages that have been gatewayed from Internet e-mail, then you're talking about a problem with the gateway system, and there may not be a whole lot we can do to help you. -- 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
