[Mailman-Users] Looking for professional help

[Brian Carpenter]

Just to let everyone know I am going with the following solution:

Hypermail (http://www.hypermail.org/) for archiving and Sphider
(http://cs.ioc.ee/~ando/sphider/) as the search engine.

Since cPanel would overwrite any changes or patches I would make to the
mailman installation whenever a new version would come out, I decided to nix
the idea of using a custom patch applied to my mailman installation. I
rather use a third party solution such as above to create archives on a list
by list basis.

My programmer will be doing the installation and configuration and will be
detailing the steps to setup searchable archives outside of mailman's
installation directory. Would this be something worthwhile to add to the
Mailman FAQ?

Kind regards,
Brian Carpenter

That's interesting.  I use Plesk, and have not found anything different 
in my Mailman installation in the Python/HTML and config files other 
than a different base location than an installed-from-source Mailman 
would have.  Everything behaves the way I expect, except for the fact 
that I have to create lists using Plesk, which is not a hardship (and in 
fact it's easier than my much older previous installation from source).

Does anyone know whether or not Plesk has made any changes?

Metta,
Ivan
