Dear All,
        
        I am a newbie to mailman. I have configured
mailman
version 2.0.6 in a RedHat 7.0 machine. I am quite
satisfied by the intial results. However, i have 
following questions

a) Can i have 30 to 40 different mailing list on a
single machine. I have exclusively reserved a machine
for this. the hardware configuration of the machine is
PIII , 800 MHZ, 128 MB Ram. whether it is advisable to
have 30 to 40 different mailing list having atleast 30
members in each list in a single machine. if no,
please tell me how to proceed in this case by giving
the changes or tuning i have to do in terms of the
hardware and software configuration. I have around 100
email transactions per day in each mailing list.
whether mailman performance will get affected or will
it become slow if i have 30 to 40 mailing list on a
single machine and have 100 email transactions per day
thru each mailing list.

b) How i can change or edit the default page that
comes for each mailing list ( ie.
http://server-name/mailman/listinfo/listname). I need
to put my own images as footer instead of mailman and
gnu images which comes default as footer. Moreover, i
would like to add some more links in this default
page. for e.g, i have developed a search option to
search the mail archives. but as of now, i am not able
to edit this default page so that i can inculde the
url for this search utility.

Any ideas as to how to do this.

Any constructive suggestions would be highly
appreciated.

Thanks
K.Deepak
