We won't make fun of you, but we do want you to read the docs.

Goto
http://hostname/mailman/admin/listname/members

There you can add and remove members.  You will have to be a listadmin for you to 
login to this.

I had a friend create my list, however, how do I send out the newsletter to my 
subscribers.  Somehow, I cant seem to ad these names to the address book.
 
 Please do not laugh at me.. :-)  I have tried everything people have suggested, like 
accessing my emails through Outlook express and managing the newsletter through

send.  So, I am back to the beginning.
 
 Can someone please help?

RE: [Mailman-Users] Bug in Mailman version 2.0.3

2002-12-04 Thread Richard Barrett
You are going to get a better response if you quote exactly from the 
Mailman $prefix/logs/error logfile the information that was logged into it 
when the  problem occurred.

You should find that there is a Python traceback immediately prior to the 
line that reads CORRUPT ARCHIVE FOR LIST listname. This may contain 
useful diagnostic information that will help people help you.

The problem is not necessarily with the list's .mbox file but more likely 
to be with the $prefix/archives/private/listname/pipermail.pck used to 
support the HTML archiving done by the builtin Pipermail archiver.

Repost with more information from the MM error log.

You could try rebuilding the problem list's HTML archives from its mbox 
archive using $prefix/bin/arch

This might reconstruct the HTML archive from the list's mbox but you should 
back up the list's archives before you try this.

Note that the mbox is used to create the HTML archive NOT the other way around!

[Mailman-Users] HELP! List admin passwords not working in Mailman2.0.13

2002-12-04 Thread Steve Rifkin
I have recently upgraded from a working Mailman 2.0.8 to version 2.0.13.
While Mailman 2.0.8 worked great, v2.0.13 is not totally working for me.

Since the upgrade, I am having a problem with LIST ADMIN PASSWORD 
AUTHENTICATION via the web.

As a user subscribed to a list, I am able to (via the web interface) 
successfully log in with the user list password to the user list options page.

However, as the LIST ADMIN, any time I now log into the LIST ADMIN screen with 
the list admin password , I get authentication failed.

However, I CAN log into any list admin screen with the *site-wide* master 
mailman admin password.  I just cannot log into any list admin screens with 
the list-admin.

Once I get into a *list admin* screen with the *site-wide password*, if I 
change that specific list's LIST ADMIN password, and they try to login as the 
LIST ADMIN, I still get an Authentication failed error.

So, is this a bug of some sort in v 2.0.13?  I had no problems with 2.0.8.

Just a note too that I recently upgraded our Apache from 1.3.14 to 1.3.17.
Python is at 2.1   We tried Pyton 2.2.2, but we get dynlink errors (ELF) with 
2.2.2, so we dropped back to 2.1.

Again, and this is important, everything worked with mailman 2.0.8.  The 
upgrade to 2.0.13 has caused the problems with List Admin authentications via 
the web.  Site-wide mailman and user mailman password authentication works 
fine.

So, what could be happening?  Is there anyway for the site admin to see the 
list admin passwords to see what mailman thinks it has?

I considered downgrading back to Mailman 2.0.8, since that version had worked. 
 However, mailman will not let you downgrade.  When I try to re-install 2.0.8, 
it complains:

Downgrade detected, from version 0x2000df0 to version 0x20008f0
This is probably not safe.  Exiting..

So, I need to stay at 2.0.13.  How can I fix this bug with list admin 
passwords for this version?

Also, how does one change a list admin's password at the command line?  Or is 
it only possible via the web?

Thanks in advance!

The list admin could be subscribed to the list. If you want stats (I'm
not sure if you're asking for stats, or a subscriber's-eye-view of the
mailing list), I'm sure you can find a package to plug into the other
end of the list admin's email address.

[Mailman-Users] Messages suddenly create lock file

2002-12-04 Thread jsingh








Hey everyone

The messages are all of a sudden creating lock files,
they were working just fine uptil today.

I checked permissions, they are fine, 

Sendmail is still listening on
port 25

Aliases are created fine 

Even if I remove the locks and send a new message all it does is create
a new lock file

Any help is appreciated, people at work have been already
using the mailman now for three weeks.

[Mailman-Users] Re: Having trouble

2002-12-04 Thread Jon Carnes
We can't help you without details.

What version of Mailman are you running?  
What are you using for your mail transport (MTA)?  
What is your OS?
Is this a new install or an existing install that was working?
Have you checked your logs to see what is going on:
  MTA logs (/var/log/maillog)
  Mailman logs (~mailman/logs/..)

As an absolute WAG with no info, take a look at the mail in your
~mailman/gfiles/.. directory.  If your install used to work, then you
may have a malformed message in the directory - or a message that is
over size for your MTA to handle.

If that is the case, you can quickly get things moving again by moving
those files over to a temporary directory.  If that unclogs things then
you can move some of the files till you figure out which one was causing
the problem (keeping in mind that it could be multiples).  In general
you might want to delete any of the messages that look like spam.

Good Luck - Jon Carnes
