We just created a list that we compiled from other lists, and I've sent one message to it, and our Sun Netra X1 with 512 meg RAM is having a very tough time. What really concerns me when I do a "top" is how much RAM the various mailman processes are taking up right now: PID USERNAME THR PRI NI

As for the list names being mined for spam, I've found that the biggest worry is the web-enabled archives. It doesn't seem very likely to me that spammers would find the list addresses in the archives. Obviously, the addresses of posters are there (these can be obscured in 2.1, right?), but

Hello Mailman folk, I work with a group that provides services to student groups at a university, and we're concerned that a lot of the lists have been picking up spam lately. The prime suspect, at this point, is Mailman's publishing of list names. If you can provide any input on how to alle
