See my reply at
<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2006-July/052194.html>.
 If you don't understand it, let's try to diagnose the specific
problem rather than your starting over with a new install and winding
up two days later with the same problem.

Also, the information at
<http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq04.045.htp>
about lost POST data due to a redirect may be relevant if you have
redirects in your web browser.

For this issue, see
