It's quite easy to block inbound mail to majordomo's list exploder
address. If you're using Postfix, just add something like the
following to a recipient access map:
/^(.*)-outgoing@(.*)$/!/^owner-.*/ 550 Use recipient address ${1}@${2} instead.
I don't believe Mailman suffers from the same kind insecurity, though.

[Mailman-Users] qrunner backlog in mailman 2.1b3
OK, so mailman 2.1b3 was doing a better of not getting backlogged than mailman 2.0.12, but today I have 1085 files total in all the queues (552 in the in queue). The oldest file in the in queue is about 1 hour old. Should mailman be able to handle high volume bursty postings like this? The system itself is pretty fast (PIII 733 with 1GB RAM, fast disks, local caching named server). qrunner logs (or any other log, for that matter) don't point out anything unusual. -- Andrew Clark Campus Network Programmer Office of Information Technology University of California, Santa Barbara [EMAIL PROTECTED] (805) 893-5311 -- Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] 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/

From: is trivial under many MTAs. Envelope requires understanding SMTP and driving that manually. However, this is largely moot: if you need strong(er) authentication in email systems, period, and this is not just limited to Mailman, you're basically into the realms of PKI. Exception: (I do this in a couple case) I require mail arriving with specific From: and Envelopes to also list specific addresses in the Received: headers. This is not strong, it is equally trivially forged as the envelope, but it is (currently) a sufficient barrier to entry to cut even the few who do forge envelopes that I've found. Now I'll be humble and admit that I don't even know what an envelope is. Crudely, its the From header (note the space). More usefully the envelope contains the return-path, the address to which a bounce should be sent back to if this message bounces. So my question about the envelope really boils down to: if I have root access on a machine other than the one Mailman is running on, can I fool Mailman's envelope recognition? Absolutely.

Hi... I would like to use your software to run my mailing list (about 900,000 subscribers) on my own server (currently I use Lyris.) I would like to run Mailamn on a 1.3 GHZ Celeron with 512 mb Ram, but I could also upgrade to 1 GB Ram, or get a 2 GHZ Pentium 4 if you think that would improve performance. How many mails can Mailman send out per hour? I usually send out one e-mail every day at midnight, and occasionally a second mail at 11 am. Do you think your software would be able to handle that?

I tried to do the same from many of the other possible users that mail could have dealt with to no avail.

Re: [Mailman-Users] newbie question -- sendmail errors
This is simply one of the first of a few errors you will run into while installing on Red Hat (using the rpms). You need to add a link in your /etc/smrsh directory to your mailman wrapper program. Something like: cd /etc/smrsh ln -s ~mailman/mail/wrapper wrapper This tells smrsh that Mailman's wrapper program is okay-dokie to run via a Sendmail alias. Next problem you will run into is that your Sendmail does not listen for a local connection. If you install from source, there are some really nice files that tell you all about smrsh and about the overly paranoid Sendmail problem - and how to get around them. There are a couple of ways around the Sendmail problem, the easiest is to comment out the line in your /etc/sendmail.cf file that restricts the interfaces used by Sendmail. If that line is commented out then Sendmail will default to listening on all local interfaces, and isn't that a happy thing to do!?! # SMTP client options #O ClientPortOptions=Address= .. Good Luck!

[Mailman-Users] e-mail to lists are rejected
I running a RH 7.3 distro, and am using Mailman with sendmail and apache. I can successfully send and receive e-mail both locally and remotely, and the web server works correctly as well. I've managed to get Mailman installed with the web interface working. I can add a new list and the list owner gets the notification message. I can add users from the admin page and they get the notification. In all cases, replies to the addresses given in the notifications are rejected by the server. As are posts to the list. I can see that the messages to the list are rejected (maillog) as User unknown. I can see in the cron log that qrunner is invoked every minute. I disabled the news portion in crontab.in. I run into the end of my understanding of the connection from sendmail to Mailman and cannot seem to find the information on the web. None of the e-mail from this group or in the archives seems to address this particular problem. I am sure it is my configuration. I'd be grateful for any help.
