Hi Sam,

> Mailman does not re-open error.log when it gets SIGHUP, causing loss of
> error messages:

The logrotate file erroneously sends a SIGHUP to reopen logfiles, while 
the "mailman way" of doing this is to call 

/usr/lib/mailman/bin/mailmanctl reopen

I've implemented this now in the current logrotate script, but could you 
please confirm that that works for you?


thanks,
Thijs
