Re: [Mailman-Users] Huge List

2004-12-30 Thread Mark Rauterkus
I run a list of 8,000 contacts and I ran out of memory. My virtual
server was a bit older -- and the ceiling was very low. I've since
been in the upgrade / migration to a new server. So, I hope to be
running again soon. But, there was a problem with memory errors.

However, it sounds (rookie guess) that you'll be okay given the box
you described.

[Mailman-Users] Huge List

2004-12-30 Thread Hauns Froehlingsdorf
I am hoping that someone will be able to help me out here.

I have been using mailman for a while now and am very familiar and happy
with its functionality!

I have a client that wants to bring his list over to mailman, he has
roughly 200,000 subscribers to this list and it is used once a month for a
newsletter.

The system I will be putting this on is a pretty beafy dell edge server
running RH AS3.0, dual processor and 1 GB of memory.  Sendmail for MTA.

Has anyone ever had experience or heard of how mailman/sendmail will play
with  a list of this size?

Thanks,
Hauns
