[Mailman-Users] no response after confirmation

2001-03-01 Thread Heiss Konrad

Hi

I've installed mailman completly new from the debian dpkg
Everything is running fine except:
if a user subscribes, he get the confirmation mail. He replys the mail and
GET NO SUBSCRIPTION.

In the mailman log this User is marked as "pending"

I use exim as MTA and I know, there where additional adjustings with earlyer
Versions of mailman. But I cannot find any remarks about using exim?

You can visit my Server running mailman (to see all config-files):
use: ssh
server: mail.aio4u.com
user: gast
password: passwd

Please return a tip where I can get help!

Heiss Konrad

[Mailman-Users] bannig someone

2001-03-01 Thread Andreas Hasenack

Ok, I saw that this feature is on the current wishlist, but has somebody
created some workaround for now?
I want to ban a specific user from talking, subscribing, etc. The list
is moderated, so of course I can stop his postings, and I get notified
of all subscriptions, but I would like to even stop him from subscribing.
Yes, he can change his email, etc. Whatever.

Has someone implemented something, even if ugly :), for this? Perhaps
another wrapper, let the alias expand to that, check the email and only 
then call the real wrapper?

Try putting a symlink in your /etc/smrsh directory pointing to wrapper:

cd/etc/smrsh
ln -s /home/mailman/mail/wrapper wrapper

You will need to recompile mailman using --with-mail-gid=d  substituting 
whatever gid your mta's gid is for d.

Re: [Mailman-Users] More Errors ...

2001-03-01 Thread Stanton Schell

First, don't try to run the wrapper from the shell, it is not designed to be done.  
The first error message occurs because you are trying to run the wrapper as 
root, which has a gid of 0.  when you recompile with gid 0 and then try to send 
email to it, which will be gid 12, you are committing the same error in reverse.  
Compile --with-mail-gid=12 and then send an email to it.

[Mailman-Users] Moving List

2001-03-01 Thread The BOFH


Is there a FAQ or a README or some other documentation which details the 
steps to move a list from one machine to another?  I'm replacing a machine, 
and I don't know if I need to simply gzip up the list directories and move 
them, or if there are other steps involved.

Thanks,

[Mailman-Users] I'm having an issue with 2.0.1 and news gatewaying.

2001-03-01 Thread Patriot

 I'm having an issue with 2.0.1 and news gatewaying.  
   
   
 It works fine, importing usenet news into e-mail and sending it out, 
however /tmp is filling up with:  
   
 389120 Feb 27 20:46 filew5MNZN   
   
 There are literally hundreds of these files and almost all of then are 
that same size.  Does anyone know why this is ocurring?  When I check the 
files each one is the same (I use diff) and they all seem to contain every 
post from each newsgroup I'm gatewaying.  
   
   
 Any help would be appreciated.  I didn't see anything in the archives on 
this.  
   
 Thanks!

Mailman's cron entries would be along with everyone else's in the
appropriate crontab directory, maybe /var/spool/cron. You can scale
that back. What you're seeing is probably the qrunner. That's what
delivers mail generated by mailman (and retries failed deliveries?).

Hi,

I have certain packages installed in my home directory - ~/local/. How should i make 
configure scripts to search for the header files in my home directory 
in addition to the system default? Because after i run configure script and run make, 
i get errors relating to header files being not found.

Is there any option which can be given to configure script?

James, did you ever get more information about this problem?  Mailman
definitely supports Approved: headers and it works fine for me testing
against MM2.0.1 and the current CVS snapshot.

From your original message though, it seems like you're asking about
adding Approved: to the first line of the /body/ of the message
instead of the headers.  No, Mailman does not support that.
