Hi,

I am the administrator of a non-profit mailing list. First of all let me
thank you for letting us use a great product. Now let me explain the
problem.

I have a mailing list, with the following settings
1. Posting allowed only for the list members.

2. Temporarily we have put the list under moderation. In this setting, all
messages have to be approved by the list administrator.

a). Under the above settings, I was under the impression that all postings
by non-members would be automatically rejected, and only postings by
list-members would be displayed to the administrator for approval.

b). But recently we received a couple of unsolicited postings from
non-members. These postings by non-members were also LISTED FOR APPROVAL
along with the postings from members. This created some confusion.

c). I verified the mailing list's setting once again and I do not see any
obvious problems.

d). Is the above behavior is a Bug ?

I would appreciate a reply.

Thanks,
Mathew Simon

Title: Weird stuff

I had something weird happen today. I set up a new list for a client today. They used it and the users are telling them that they are getting the same message 35-50 times. Do you have any idea why this might have happened?

I get the following error message bouncing back when I try to post or
subscribe to a mailing list I set up on a Cobalt server. It is compliled to
use a local version of Perl 6 and is also compiled with a prefix.

It seems that wrapper is looking for /home/mailman/post in
/usr/local/majordomo and is obviously having problems. Why would it be doing
this and how do I fix it?


wrapper: Trying to exec /usr/local/majordomo/post failed: No such file
or directory
Did you define PERL correctly in the Makefile?
HOME is HOME=/usr/local/majordomo,
PATH is PATH=/bin:/usr/bin,
SHELL is SHELL=/bin/sh,
MAJORDOMO_CF is MAJORDOMO_CF=/usr/local/majordomo/majordomo.cf
451 "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper post uknews"... Operating system error

See README.SENDMAIL:

--
For example, if you've installed Mailman in the standard location, you
can just execute these commands (you might have to do these as root):

    % cd /etc/smrsh
    % ln -s /home/mailman/mail/wrapper wrapper

One complication: if you're running Majordomo and Mailman
simultaneously (i.e. in the process of migrating from MD to MM :),
then you might have a small problem because Majordomo also uses a
program called `wrapper'.  In this case, Paul Tomblin suggests calling
the Mailman symlink `mailman_wrapper', and changing the alias entries
to call this instead of `wrapper'.  You might want to hack bin/newlist
to output this instead.

Hi,

    I get this error almost every minute. If check the permissions I see
that config.db of all lists are owned by nobody ( web user ). Is it not
okey? Should I chown?

Your "cron" job on mail
/usr/local/bin/python -S /export/home/mailman//cron/gate_news

produced the following output:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/export/home/mailman//cron/gate_news", line 222, in ?
    main()
  File "/export/home/mailman//cron/gate_news", line 203, in main
    process_lists(lock)
  File "/export/home/mailman//cron/gate_news", line 140, in process_lists
    mlist = MailList.MailList(listname, lock=0)
  File "/export/home/mailman//Mailman/MailList.py", line 79, in __init__
    self.Load()
  File "/export/home/mailman//Mailman/MailList.py", line 891, in Load
    dict, e = self.__load(dbfile)
  File "/export/home/mailman//Mailman/MailList.py", line 868, in __load
    fp = open(dbfile)
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied:
'/export/home/mailman/lists/test1/config.db'







It is getting about time to make my feature request (again).

The first and most important: Keep real names as well as rmail 
addresses. My real preference would be to use PostgreSQL (preferred) 
or MySQL for the list info database.

My second, and almost as important, request: Provide a way to specify 
the list domain name at the time of list creation instead of having 
to change it after creation. This causes confusion for users of 
virtual domains.

Thanks for a great product.

    Don't see why you have to do that.  I run mailman across three
different vdomains and I never have to change the list domain name.  It
automatically knows what its (correct) vdomain is when it gets created.

Hi!

First, I would like to thank all Mailman developers. It is a great piece of 
software and I appreciate it. (Of course, I would also like to thank the 
Academy. But that is another story entirely.)

Is Mailman I18Ned? Has French localization been written yet? The webpage does 
not mention this: I have looked in the FAQ. I have also looked at the 
features list and the to-do list... And in my mind, I18N belongs in one of 
those two places. :-)

Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again!

Jérôme Loisel
