Mailman's mailinglist has been pretty reliable, but I have run into some trouble. The closest thing to help I've come across is this tutorial: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~help/mail_news/mail...rief_intro.html. It's been linked to a lot in the forums, but really isn't that useful.
I feel a little abandoned - as though TCH kind of drove me into woods and left me there by offering this other useful thing but not being able to point me to a place for help. Sucks that there doesn't seem to be helpful documentation or support for this third party... what is a mailinglist considered? application? service? thingy? -- You know, like, Advanced Guestbook has it's own FAQs, forums, mods, etc. I'm obviously not asking TCH to offer help for stuff that's not theirs, but maybe only offer services that have reliable support. Or at least warn me ahead of time. Maybe they did and I'm D-U-M.
Okay, that's pretty general; here's what I'm up against now:
I've sent an email to my mailinglist, it's in my sent mail, it's in the list archives, but I haven't received a copy. What gives? What are possible explanations? Does is sometimes take longer? Why? Are there server issues I don't know about? etc, etc
Or, to appease the almighty TCH-Thomas of the "What This Forum Is About" topic, where should I be asking this question? Maybe there should be a "third-party thingies" forum.
Whew!
