We obviously comment out this cron job. We have over 4,200 mailing lists and over 854,100 subscribers. If password reminders are sent out all subscribers at 5AM on the first of each month, this will be heavy email burden to our mailman servers. # 5 AM on the first of each month, mail out password reminders. #0 5 1 * * /usr/bin/python -S /usr/local/mailman/cron/mailpasswds Thanks, Carl -----Original Message----- From: Mark Sapiro [mailto:m...@msapiro.net] Sent: Wednesday, February 04, 2015 7:50 PM To: Xie, Wei; mailman-users@python.org Subject: Re: Monthly email reminder of what mailman lists they were subscribed to and the password for each list.

If only one list has send_reminders = Yes, the members of that one list who have their own "Get password reminder email for this list?" set to Yes will receive a monthly reminder for that list only. I.e., as long as cron/mailpasswds is being run monthly a user will receive a monthly reminder which includes the options page link and password for each list in the domain of which she is a member for which both the list's send_reminders = Yes and the her "Get password reminder email for this list?" = Yes and only those lists, unless there are no such lists in which case no reminder is sent. So if your question is will this reminder include the list name but not the password (or the list name and password) for lists of which she is a member but for which send_reminders = No, the answer is No. Lists for which send_reminders = No will not be mentioned in any way in the monthly reminder email. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
