[Mailman-Users] Mailman- not responding to subscription confirmation
Hi there all, I have setup Mailman on a redhat 7.3 running sendmail and pop3 server. Sendmail is configured with the default settings from redhat, My problem is that Mailman sends welcome response but doesnot respond to subscription confirmationrequests and as well as it doesnot send any mailto a particular domain. Does anyone have any clue how I can sort out this problem. In regards to sendmail, it allows RELAY from local host by default. Arshad

From Jon Carnes Saturday, October 12, 2002 2:21 PM You can set the list to be Moderated, so that all messages must be approved. You can also setup a sub-list of email addresses that are allowed to post to the list without being moderated. Dear Jon: Sorry I sent this to the whole mailing list, but your email address ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) did not take my send. Thanks for the response. Does Mailman support the concept of anonymity? For example, can the program allow users to designate a USER NAME and also an email address that is verifiable? The email list I am compiling is for those who are mentally ill, are patients, or have relatives who are ill. The need for anonymity is high. What do you suggest?

[Mailman-Users] Hey Jon, here's something for your FAQ entry for Mailman..
Hey Jon--
First--thank you for pointing me to your entry in the FAQ--it was exactly
what I was looking for!! :)
Now, I'd like to give back .. :)
I have a suggested addition for that entry: FAQ # 3.7, Setting up Web
access using MM list passwords - for Apache...
Here's a Perl script that creates a Makefile that you can call in your
crontab to rebuild htpasswd files for all of your lists... I figured since
you pointed me towards this FAQ, I'd share what I did with it so far.. :)
I hope you find this useful.. it's my first perl script!
I'm sure this can be made even better... but this is what I have so far..
:) Suggestions/etc are always welcomed and encouraged!
Thanks again!
Glenn
Suggested addendum for FAQ Entry 3.7:
To automate this procedure, I first made a wrapper for Mailman's newlist
that consists of:
#!/bin/sh
/etc/mailman/bin/newlist
/adm/bin/mm_make_htaccess.pl
--
So whenever you create a new mailing list, it will recreate the Makefile
which will keep your htaccess passwords for your lists up to date. Put in
whatever output options you usually use for newlist.
Here is a perl script that creates the Makefile to do all the work for you:
#!/usr/bin/perl
###
##
## mm_make_htaccess.pl
##
## Create $file_dir/Makefile for Mailman use.
## version 1.0
## by ges, 10/12/2002
##
## This script is designed to take the directory names
## from ~mailman/lists and put them into a Makefile
## which, when run, will create htpasswd files for
## all your mailman lists, for use in Apache.
##
###
##
## First we define where Mailman lists reside.
##
## Then we define what directory the Makefile
## lives in, as well as where the htpasswd files
## will live.
##
## Then we will set a variable to change for
## admins using Mailman 2.1 or 2.0
##
## Change $configext to be db for 2.0
## or pck for 2.1
##
$list_dir=/etc/mailman/lists;
$file_dir=/etc/httpd;
$configext=pck;
##
## First let's open the list directory!
## Once that's done, we'll read the filenames into @names
## for later use!
##
opendir(LISTDIR,$list_dir) || die(Cannot Open $list_dir!);
@lists = readdir(LISTDIR);
closedir(LISTDIR);
##
## Now we open the makefile
##
open(MAKEFILE,$file_dir/Makefile) || die(Cannot Open File);
print MAKEFILE \n\nall: mailmanstuff\n\n;
print MAKEFILE mailmanstuff: ;
foreach $list (@lists)
{
next if ($list eq .);
next if ($list eq ..);
print MAKEFILE $file_dir/htpasswd.$list ;
next;
}
$list=;
print MAKEFILE \n\n;
foreach $list (@lists)
{
next if ($list eq .);
next if ($list eq ..);
print MAKEFILE $file_dir/htpasswd.$list: ;
print MAKEFILE $list_dir/$list/config.$configext\n;
print MAKEFILE \t/home/adm/bin/mm_htaccess
$list\n\n;
next;
}
close(MAKEFILE)
--
Change the variables at the beginning of the script to match your
installation of Mailman (I put a symlink in /etc to make it easier for me
to get to).
Now we create a small shell script:
#!/bin/sh
cd /etc/httpd
make
--
Change /etc/httpd to match $file_dir from the perl script. Put this shell
script into your crontab to run every 10 minutes or so--remember--it's a
Makefile, so it won't actually do anything if the files haven't changed!
Now, just run your wrapper when you make new lists on Mailman, and every 10
minutes the htpasswd files will be created using Jon Carnes' mm_htaccess
script!

Re: [Mailman-Users] Help
This is not a function of Mailman. I suggest that you setup a webform to mail to your list - an unadvertised webform (advertised only via your list). Make sure you hard-code the To: in the webform so that it only mails to your list. This way, the mail comes from your webserver and not from the individual. Can't get more anonymous than that in this day and age. Note: this could be widely abused. An alternative is to setup an anonymous re-mailer for your list. This is basically an alias on your mailserver that is front-ended by a script which removes the incoming headers and then remails the body to your mailing list (as the anonymous user on your mailserver). Most folks don't really worry about this type of thing anymore as bogus email accounts are so easy to come by. Simply go to www.hotmail.com and create an anonymous user, then mail-away!

Re: [Mailman-Users] how can I install mailman on a mailserver andaccess it from another web-server by using nfs?
You could simply mount Mailman's home directory via NFS then do the cron and aliases setup on the Mailserver then do the CGI setup on the webserver. Some folks do this, but it leaves me scratching my head. I've never seen the web load from even a large Mailman install amount to very much in system resources. And as for security, Apache is fairly bullet-proof as long as you leave off the modules you aren't using.

Re: [Mailman-Users] to the wishlist
Actually, you can download the entire achive in MBOX format. If you like, you can edit that file and cut off the file at whatever date you want. Then simply import it into your Email program. I run Evolution and it is trivial to import an mbox format file into my mailbox: Create a new folder (it's empty) Open a command line windows and copy the mbox file into the newly created Evolution folder ../evolution/local/newfolder/mbox Open the new folder in Evolution... wait a few seconds as it indexes it.
