I have thousands of pending spam emails in a list for mailman 2.0.x, is
there a way to delete them from shell command instead GUI? I really don't
want to check thousand times for "discard".
There might be some old patches on SourceForge to do this kind of thing for 2.0.x. Most of the command-line tools I know of for this sort of thing were developed for use with 2.1.x.
It seems to me that all hold messages are located in directory /home/mailman/data
Can I use "rm" to manually delete them?
See the archives and the SourceForge patches for more info.
Also, is there a way that I can change the mailman settings, in the future, non registered users posting email to mail list, they will get a bounced email saying they are not registered user to post mail and then discard the mail automatically. In other words, the administrator doesn't need to get involved to approval or disapproval?
Easy enough to do. Just change the default action for non-subscribed users from "hold" to "reject".
Thanks.
Under "General Options", I cannot find such an option to change the default action.
Also, I tried to remove the list admin's email address from the website. I went to
"General Options", and deleted the value for The list admin's email address.
Then, I noticed under the bottom of the webpage, it will display
"xx-xxxxxll list run by". It looks good that the email address doesn't appear
in the webpage anymore. But not sure how to remove the text
"xx-xxxxxll list run by"
Thanks for your help,
Tom
