Does one really need root privileges to install mailman? Surely I could install mailman on my web shared hosting plan without root. (As the version of mailman Dreamhost provides gives the administrator only access to the web interface, and not the shell scripts -- drives one nuts trying to debug.)
I'll just use --with-username=$USER --with-groupname=`id -g` ... --with-cgi-ext=.cgi etc. and then use my .procmailrc to redirect what comes to the extra mailboxes my hosting plan allows me to make... And for sending mail I can use /usr/sbin/sendmail -i -f ... Is the above neglecting a fundamental principle? http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1867285&group_id=103&atid=100103 ------------------------------------------------------ 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
