     Since I can't get to my email account at work, I scan the archives.
     I do remember seeing them both and I don't have "reject" messages
     from the admin account.   Why you didn't get them, I don't know.

     allowing attachments part is highly shunned by most of the Mailman
     community.  I have tried to configure it the best I can within the
     limitations available.  It's not optimum unfortunately.

     20 years old or better, though it does get regular updates, it's not
     for things like making it easier to attach photos and such.
