Mark, Actually, this is saying cache_life under mailman:
https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailman/en/latest/src/mailman/config/docs/config.html#cache-life There is a cache_lifetime under ‘dmarc’. I used your clue about the database to concoct my own solution… 😊. I edited the ‘expires_on’ values in the file_cache table in the database so the files were expired. It looks like the times in that table are UTC. I’m going to ratchet down my cache_life so anyone that is playing with templates doesn’t go bonkers (like me) with why their changes aren’t honored. I have a small site, so not much performance impact. Thank you for your help.

Removing them is OK, but a database entry will still exist pointing to them and attempt to retrieve them will return `Cache content lost`. The way to properly remove them is in Mailman shell ``` $ mailman shell Welcome to the GNU Mailman shell Use commit() to commit changes. Use abort() to discard changes since the last commit. Exit with ctrl+D does an implicit commit() but exit() does not. >>> cm = getUtility(ICacheManager) >>> cm.clear() >>> commit() >>> ``` -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
