I'm still seeing the old internal URL: http://host.internal.mydomain.net/blah/blah Did you run fix_url as Jim said in his previous reply. This is necessary because the URL was stored as a list attribute when the list was created. (Also, are you restarting Mailman after mm_cfg.py changes?) I'm not sure what is wrong - I searched the FAQ on this one and this seemed to be the right solution. FAQ 4.29 covers this although the fix_url part is somewhat buried.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Content Filtering - Reject
CL-Admin wrote: Thanks for the prompt response, I have been digesting and doing further research, I am not to experienced in the Mime format world and haven't found much in my Internet searches that I understood to help me choose what to put in the mime type.. The goal is to get the list into plain test with NO images, several of the users are on WEB-TV and can't read HTML. I did find FAQ 3.10 and read most of the embedded link to the 20+ page document on the whys to keep in plain text, would that be the solution? That FAQ answer predates the advent of content filtering, so it is not the current best way to do this. Currently the spam-specific posting filters contains (2nd field on screen): # Lines that *start* with a '#' are comments. to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] message-id: relay.comanche.denmark.eu from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] These values are a hold over from previous hosting company set-up. Actually, they are defaults for legacy spam filters, but you want to use content filtering, not header filtering. To pass only plain text parts from essentially all messages set the following in Content filtering-pass_mime_types: multipart/mixed multipart/alternative message/rfc822 text/plain If you also want to allow pgp signed messages, add: multipart/signed application/pgp-signature Also, set filter content to Yes and set filter_action as desired. If you want to try HTML to plain text conversion, you can set convert_html_to_plaintext to Yes and add 'text/html' to pass_mime_types.

[Mailman-Users] lists/create screen
Hi there, I have a new mailman instance set up - via a proxied connection. I've since found that doing it this way is more complex (but not my choice). Several items need to be addressed.

There currently are no publicly-advertised Mailman http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/index.html mailing lists on our.internal.host.net:1.To visit the administrators configuration page for an unadvertised list, open a URL similar to this one, but with a '/' and the list name appended.

I'm not sure if this is a simple template that needs to be edited or if there's a more eloquent way to get these links to reflect the proper external links/hosts we want people to see. I think you have a real problem here. I hope you are not trying to use virtual hosts too as that will really complicate things. Assuming not, set VIRTUAL_HOST_OVERVIEW = Off in mm_cfg.py. This will allow all public lists to at least appear on the listinfo and admin overview pages. As far as the host names our.internal.host.net:1 and gr1.sca.manyone.net:10016 in the above are concerned, I'm confused. These should not be different (unless you've changed DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN replacing %s with gr1.sca.manyone.net:10016) as they both are obtained from Utils.get_domain(). Anyway, these come from the environment variables HTTP_HOST or SERVER_NAME and are the actual host name which would be the real host, not the proxy. To make these be the proxy, I think you'd have to hack Mailman/Cgi/admin.py where this page is built on the fly (not from template) or better, change Mailman/Utils.py to always return the name of the proxy - you could at least make it an mm_cfg.py variable. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED] The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

[Mailman-Users] best way to make announce list for members of lots of other lists?
Hello, Question: We host a few dozen lists for clients who run our software. Each client has a unique list for their own organization, and it is used to correspond with us (the developers), etc., but not with each client. However, whenever we release a new version of software for ALL the clients, we would like an announce list, so one of us can post an announcement, and all the clients get. 1) Each client should not see who the other clients are. 2) Is there an easy way to take members of the existing lists so extra work does not have to be done to populate the announce list with same members? 3) Just as an aside, our clients do not subscribe to the lists -- we do it for them, and then only give them access to the archives.

[Mailman-Users] pipe mails via procmail
Hey guys, I try to use mailman (with procmail) in combination with FUD Forum ( http://fudforum.org ) to make the maillist visible in my board. FUD has a Mailing List Manager included - so i filled out the forms and assigned a mailing list to a board - but the problem is: I don't know how to pipe the mails to my board. There is following example given: :0: * [EMAIL PROTECTED] | /home/forum/F/test/maillist.php 1 So I guess i should insert that into a procmailrc file on my server (at 'etc/' ), I tried that and wasted a lot of time with searching for my mistake. It seems like my procmail doesn't even read my procmailrc file when I write new mails to the configured mailing list. I inserted the following into my procmailrc file: PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/bin LOGFILE=/var/log/proclog :0: * [EMAIL PROTECTED] # i changed this one ;) | /usr/local/httpd/fud/scripts/maillist.php 1 I also tried to change the permissions of the procmailrc file, but it had no effect.
