[Mailman-Developers] creating a list of moderators
Hi, I'm a site administrator and I'd like to be able to automatically compile a list of 'list moderators' so that I can send them all announcements. I can't find a way to do this in the current version, and I saw similar functionality being requested on the 'wishlist', so I assume that it has yet to be implemented. I'm new to Mailman, but I'd like to try writing a script to do this. Can anyone advise me on how to go about it/where to start? Any ideas? Many thanks!

Um, take a look at `bin/list_owners -m`. It might be nice to have a sort of live mailing list for them rather than a list of their addresses, though. --Robby On Jan 11, 2006, at 12:41, David Benson wrote: I'm a site administrator and I'd like to be able to automatically compile a list of 'list moderators' so that I can send them all announcements.

Something like this? import cPickle, os, os.path, sys MAILMANHOME='/var/mailman' ;# change to suit sys.path.append(MAILMANHOME) moderators = [] for dir in os.listdir(os.path.join(MAILMANHOME, 'lists')): o = cPickle.load(open(os.path.join(MAILMANHOME, 'lists', dir, 'config.pck'))) for email in o['moderator']: email in moderators or moderators.append(email) return moderators On Wed, 2006-01-11 at 12:41 -0500, David Benson wrote: Hi, I'm a site administrator and I'd like to be able to automatically compile a list of 'list moderators' so that I can send them all announcements.

It's already mostly there: The command list_owners -m prints all owners and moderators of all mailing lists on your machine. Getting these into a mailing list should not be that hard...
