But you'll bother the Mailman developers because they do it for free? Think about it a little. You like your ISP because they don't charge much, which is because they free ride on the work of projects like Mailman. Mailman does not charge for the resources used in development and support, which is a good thing. It enables such free riding, and that is a good thing, too. Not everybody who would benefit from using Mailman can afford to return money or hours to the project immediately. But those resources are nonetheless real. Hours spent on email, debugging, and development of new features. Mark Sapiro's time is *very* expensive, despite his generous choice to put a price of zero on it, because he is a core developer. Try to encourage your ISP's staff to participate in the Mailman lists, at least when your problems at their host are under discussion. That will beneift everybody. ------------------------------------------------------ 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
