I've got a number of mail lists I'd like to run without requiring the user to performan a confirmation or for the list-admin to approve. I've added to "mm_cfg.py" the lines:
DEFAULT_SUBSCRIBE_POLICY = 0 ALLOW_OPEN_SUBSCRIBE = yes and then stopped and restarted mailman. If I send a message with "subscribe" in the subject to one of the lists, the list admin still gets a mail indicating that the subscription request needs to be approved. Thinking that the issue was that the user was a non-member, I added the user's domain into the "accept_these_nonmembers". The behavior is the same-- the list admin gets a mail to approve their subscription request. I then removed the domain info under "accept_these_nonmembers" and changed "generic_nonmember_action" to accept and the list admin still get a mail indicating an approval is required. The "subscribe_policy" shows as none under the UI. Is there another setting I need to tweak so that the list admin does not need to approve subscriptions? Is a completely open list (no user confirmation, no list admin approval) possible? I intend to lock things down via the ban list once I get the open portion working as I expect. I'm running mailman 2.1.9 on red hat.
