You might also take a look at mailman. I also had problems with Berolist.
One advantage is that it has both web-based and command line tools for

Perhaps something like this (assuming the target drive is /dev/hdb).

I have a small network @Home and use dhcp to dole out the ip's, I use
the dhcp-dns package so that I can refer to these boxen by name and so
that various network utilities will work. Recently I've started getting

Hi all,
I thought this list might be the best place to ask:
What's the easiest way to get an init string into the modem?
Specifically, I want "AT#CID=1" to put the modem into caller-id reading mode.
Is there a simple way to do something like 'echo "AT#CID=1" > /dev/modem'?
Thanks much,
Robbie

Kenward, check out the /usr/doc/exim/spec.txt.gz file, near line 11900 for
some information on setting up a smarthost thingy.
(Anyone else think exim's docs might be a bit too big? :)
