--- Not sure what you mean by 'far better ways'. I am successfully using
mailman with exim (as per the info at '
www.exim.org/howto/mailman21.html')
and now want to tweak the exim configuration so exim can be pointed at a
separate alias file that would contain my mailman 2.1 aliases. It may be
that the exim 4 'mailman_router' does the job, I'm just not sure.
Does anyone else have any thoughts on/ideas about pointing exim to more
than one alias file (in this case one containing mailing list aliases)?
Thanks.
