This is MailMan, version 0.20 (09-Dec-88)
Documentation on how to use MailMan can be found in the Archimedes User's Guide,
Issue 2.
The following remarks should be noted about this version of MailMan and its
documentation.
On a serious network error, such as 'Line jammed', the MailMan can consume
all of the processor time. This will sort itself out soon after the network
recovers. The only way out if the network doesn't recover is to use
ctrl-break.
There is only one choices file per copy of MailMan. So, if several users on
a network all share a copy of MailMan, loaded from a fileserver, then they
will get the same choices for the mail settings. A way round this is to set
the mail variables with *set (for example, in a boot sequence) BEFORE
loading MailMan. This works because the variable settings in the choices file
are ignored if the variable is already set.
