the patched version of middleman solved the mailman problems I reported. It runs fine now. Many thanks for the help of the list, especially the help of Mark Sapiro.

I'm volunteering, but on the other hand, the README file written by Eino for the middleman interface code describes the integration process very well. /rolf ------------------------------------------------------ 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
