Mailman (like Majordomo) can handle multiple email commands in the same message. Mailman also looks for a command in the Subject (as well as the body). You sent it the help command twice. Once in the subject, once in the body. On Sat, 2003-02-15 at 11:21, Jeremy Butler wrote: I recently

Yes, but you can do some administrations via email... but Mailman is structured to do most of it via the web. Still it would be fairly easy to add that functionality into the code. Personally, I like using the web-based admin. On Thu, 2003-02-13 at 11:21, Jeff Salisbury wrote: Hi John, I've
