[Mailman-Users] keep back mails of users

2005-08-30 Thread Martin Held
hi

i'm a beginner and i have a question. perhaps somebody of 
you know the answer.

i created a new list for mailman.
now a want 2 kinds of users:
- the first group should be able to send the mail directly to mailman and
mailman
should dispose the mail to the list members.
- the second group of users can send mails too. but the mail needs a release
by
the administrator. 

is this possible ?

how ?

thanks for help

best regards
emmi

IIRC you can set a "moderated" flag individually for users.

All users that are *not* moderated have their mails passed through
immediately, the others' contributions are held back and an
administrator or moderator has to pass them through.

Kind regards,

Hannah.

[Mailman-Users] "Server not connected" in smtp-failure log

2005-08-30 Thread Mike Hanby
Howdy all,

I have my mailman list set up as an E-Newsletter distribution list, i.e.
only email that I approve goes out to the list.

I am seeing the following errors being repeated over and over in my
/usr/local/mailman/logs/smtp-failure log

delivery to [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed with code -1: Server not connected

I found a possible solution to this in mailman-users list:
Write this line in your mm_cfg.py
MTA = 'Postfix'
SMTPHOST = 'aa.bb.cc.dd'

I already had the MTA line correct, but didn't have the SMTPHOST line.  I've
added that line.

My questions:
1) do I need to do anything to get mailman to re-read mm_cfg.py?
2) Will mailman re-attempt to deliver the email to this user or will
he have to wait for my next newsletter email? (remember this is an
E-Newsletter type list)

Thanks, Mike

[Mailman-Users] Emails coming through as "maillist-bounces" - is this normal?

2005-08-30 Thread Memmott @ HitCatcher.com
Hi everyone,

 

I've searched the FAQ and come up with nothing. Please be gentle if this is
a dumb question...

 

A client of ours has a mailman list set up called [EMAIL PROTECTED] For some
reason, when anybody posts to this list, the return address of the list
comes across as "[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
On Behalf Of firstname lastname"

(User and domain specific details modified)

 

Anyways, is this the default behavior/ Is there any way to force it to send
out emails as [EMAIL PROTECTED] and not awake-bounces?

 

Thanks in advance,

Matt

I am using 1.61 per the revision number on the file:
Kev Green, oRe Net (http://www.orenet.co.uk/), 2003/11/04
$Revision: 1.61 $

and the mailman version is via version in bin:
mailman01:/var/lib/mailman/bin# ./version
Using Mailman version: 2.1.6


Is there some sort of issue with spammers?  It doesn't happen all the 
time.  There appears to be no rhyme or reason for it.

Thanks,
Sean Roe

Re: [Mailman-Users] "Server not connected" in smtp-failure log

2005-08-30 Thread Mike Hanby
Bah, ok, I'm still having trouble with this.  Some of the people on the list
get the emails from the list, but a bunch of others get this error in
smtp-failure like

delivery to [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed with code -1: Server not connected
delivery to [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed with code -1: Server not connected
delivery to [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed with code -1: Server not connected
delivery to [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed with code -1: Server not connected
...
and so on

I've tried that setting SMTPHOST '127.0.0.1' and SMTPHOST '10.0.0.1' and
also it's MX ip address, and all result in the following error:

Low level smtp error: Server not connected, msgid:
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Commenting out SMTPHOST gets rid of the above "Low level smtp" error, but
the "Server not connected" errors continue.

My MTA is PostFix

Re: [Mailman-Users] "Server not connected" in smtp-failure log

2005-08-30 Thread Mike Hanby
Ok, I think I've found the solution, I didn't need to mess with the
SMTPHOST, since localhost works just fine.  I commented that line out of my
mm_cfg.py file.

The following was set in my Default.py file
SMTPPORT = 0
I changed it to the following in my mm_cfg.py file
SMTPPORT = 25

And now it looks as though it's working.  Wonder why it was set to 0 in the
Default file.

I am following up my own post.  I found the following patch that was
submitted last April which looks like it will do most of what I want.

--
"[ 892118 ] limit admin privs on user options page"
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=892118&group_id=103&atid=300103
--

Has anyone here had experience running this patch, or has anyone else
ever wanted to do what I'm doing?  I am guessing my installation and
level of trust of the list admins must be quite different than most
other Mailman sites.  :-)
