Re: [Mailman-Users] public/private listinfo pages

How can I set up a second private (protected with .htaccess) page which shows all of the lists? You could create an other/ directory on your server and put your .htaccess and a symlink (named say listinfo) to $prefix/cgi-bin/listinfo in that directory. Then you could modify the the following section of the definition of listinfo_overview() in $prefix/Mailman/listinfo.py from for name in listnames: mlist = MailList.MailList(name, lock=0) if mlist.advertised: if mm_cfg.VIRTUAL_HOST_OVERVIEW and \ ... to something like for name in listnames: mlist = MailList.MailList(name, lock=0) if mlist.advertised or ( os.environ.get('SCRIPT_NAME').startswith('/other')): if mm_cfg.VIRTUAL_HOST_OVERVIEW and \ ... and add the appropriate ScriptAlias to the web server so that http://www.example.com/other/listinfo will invoke your symlink.

[Mailman-Users] public/private listinfo pages
Hello, I have several lists on the same server, all with the same domain name. I currently have a public listinfo page which displays only selected lists that have the advertise option enabled. How can I set up a second private (protected with .htaccess) page which shows all of the lists?

[Mailman-Users] Two questions
1. Is there a way to mass unsubscribe all the members of a 5k list? 2. I need to send a broadcast message to about 4K addresses. Just a one-time announcement. Should I use Mailman for this? I'm not sure how to set up a broadcast-only list. Thanks!

I'm not sure how to set up a broadcast-only list. Have you set the list up already? You could just create a new, moderated list and not let anyone else post to it. This is how I did it last time but I thought there was maybe a specific kind of list for broadcasting announcements.

[Mailman-Users] Comcast, Yahoo, Hotmail blocking us
Suddenly, these major ISP's were refusing our connections. We are not on their blacklists. This all started on one day. After a great deal of investigation by my sysadmin and my University IT guys we have come to the conclusion that it might have been caused by updating our mail gateway machine. We upgraded from an antiquated PIX to one that is lightening fast. Plus we upgraded our bandwidth at the same time. So, what is happening is we are delivering the mail so fast that these ISP's are rejecting mail because they have thresholds in place that block large quantities of mail coming in from the same server in a short time. So, the question I have is - is there any way to set mailman so that it doesn't send all its copies of a message to yahoo.com for instance all at once? Can you break it up? We have 200 yahoo users which is over their threshold. We are grasping at straws on this one. Also, is there a way to find out which major blacklists your server is on and also a way to find the addresses you need to request whitelisting? I have a feeling there is a repository for this that you can search, but I don't know where to find it. Thanks for your help.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Comcast, Yahoo, Hotmail blocking us
We changed our Sendmail configuration to send out one message at a time and it seems to be working fine so far. Thanks for all the help.

Could it not really be slow? Well, you asked how to slow it down ... OTOH, it won't be that slow. If your MTA as as blinding fast as you say, I imagine that for moderate sized messages, say 10 KB, it would take well under a minute to deliver to the MTA. I don't know how many members are on the many lists at python.org, but many of these lists have personalized and/or VERPed delivery and thus send an individual message to each subscriber, and it doesn't seem to be an issue there. -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showamp;file=faq01.027.htp
