[Mailman-Users] Can I pay for Technical support? re: MailMan?

[Support Desk]

Ha, ha.. This is open source, not microsloth, there is
no "paid" support option..

Personally, I find DSL and Cable lines too unreliable.
The only "paid" support you can get for Mailman is by
hosting your site on one of the thousands of real
full time hosting providers who offer Mailman as part
of their hosting packages.  Many offer accounts for
only a few dollars per month, with 99% + uptime.

"Access" providers, who "give" you free space with
your account, do not guarantee uptime, their "hosted"
sites are generally slow, because 98% of their bandwidth
is dedicated to "access" not "hosting" .

A  search for "host mailman" on Google will give you
hundreds of hits of hosts that have Mailman installed.

| We are downloading Mailman on our Linux box. Is there paid technical
| support available?
|
| Who can tell us what the capacity is on a 1-meg. out dsl line---that is,
| how many, on the average emails can be sent via Mailman?
|
| Are there issues with AOL and other ISP's that we must be aware of-- in
| order not to be labeled as spam?
|
| What experts can we consult with?
|
| P.S. Can we use two computers and/or two dsl accounts at the same time,
| to mail to large mailing lists? Will that work?
|
| thanks,
