[Mailman-Users] FAQ entry: Who should deal with DNS errors?
I was going to add this FAQ entry, but I realize that I don't have a password to do that and I have to leave for a meeting right now. If someone wants to add this, feel free to do it. I just discovered this issue this morning, when I noticed that some of my lists took a long time to deliver mail. Sam PS/ feel free to reformat, rewrite, delete, ... :) -- Samuel Tardieu -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://www.rfc1149.net/sam 4.20 Who should deal with DNS errors? Sometimes, Mailman tries to send mail to domains which exist but do not have a MX (mail exchanger) or an A (address) record. This may happen for example when a spam comes from a newly reserved domain, who has not been setup to receive mail. Most MTA are configured to reject mail for such a domain with a temporary failure exit code (such as 450), because the absence of those records may be caused by a transient network outage. If your local MTA has been configured this way, it will reject mail from Mailman with this temporary failure exit code, and Mailman will try to resent the mail every minute. Considering that the DNS lookup may easily take up to 30 seconds in case of a network problem, this may slow down Mailman mail delivery by a huge factor. One solution is to let your MTA deal with this situation instead of Mailman. Configure your MTA so that it always accepts mail coming from Mailman. In Postfix for example, this is done by using a client_access restriction (allowing mail from localhost if Mailman is running on the same machine as Postfix) before the reject_unknown_recipient_domain restriction. -- 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/ This message was sent to: archive@jab.org Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
Re: [Mailman-Users] Digest message header filtering
Hi,
I am Cc-ing this reply to the list.
You can always change your preferred charset by adding following
lines in your mm_cfg.py.
LC_DESCRIPTIONS['en'] = (_('English (USA)'), 'iso-8859-1')
This is useful if your list's main language is English but
majority of users are from Latin-1 countries. Plain text
digest will go out with latin characters un-replaced, I believe.

Hello,
I just read your reply to a question on the mail-users list concerning the
extra headers.
What updates/patches are available in the CVS directory ? I quickly had a look
but was unable to find much and even less that I understood.
But ok, I will also upgrade to the latest CVS on a test machine first.
Since your name pops up several times on the list I am contacting you directly
for a question of mine that remained unanswered.
How did you tackle the character-encoding problem of us-ascii for digests ?
Where do I have to make changes ?
For your information I run MM2.1 + qmail + demime.
I know mails using iso-8859-1 pass demime with flying colours, but once they
end up in a digest (which is us-ascii :-( ) all non-us-ascii characters
get transformed.
kind regards,
Kenneth Bruyninckx.

[Mailman-Users] Problems with Mailman 2.1
I recently re-installed my Linux Mandrake 8.2 server, I had located some data corruption in the OS Binaries. Anyway, I've been using Mailman for quite awhile, the server has been running LM 8.1 and was upgraded to 8.2. Mailman has received several upgrades while in place on the system. I'm explaining all of this because even though there appears to be no errors in the configuration or binaries, there is also no errors coming through the Mailman tools. I am using Sendmail-8.12.6, and have elected to use the traditional alias list which includes the /etc/mail/mailman.aliases file. I have the following Python RPMs (these are Mandrake centric RPMs): libpython2.2-2.2-9.1mdk libpython2.2-devel-2.2-9.1mdk postgresql-python-7.2-12mdk python-2.2-9.1mdk python-base-2.2-9.1mdk python-docs-2.2-9.1mdk pythonlib-1.28-1mdk python-numeric-20.3-2mdk I cannot locate the python-devel-2.x rpm indicated in the READMEs, and was hoping that this was my problem. I have run the check_perms, check_db, and don't know where the potential problem may reside, as there are no more error messages left to resolve. Any suggestions? -- Albert E.

[Mailman-Users] Mailman, Gmane, non-text attachements removed?
Folks: I've got a problem with some of my subscribers that are using the gmane.org news server to read mailing lists. I run my lists with Mailman 2.1. These subscribers (myself included) post messages to the list via the news server, and the messages go out to the regular subscribers, and gmane.org, without a problem ... however, when the message is included in a digest, it just shows up as --- non-text attachment removed --- (or something to that effect). I do have Mailman 2.1's content filtering enabled so that only text portions of a message are sent through (and HTML is *SUPPOSED* to be converted to text, but that's another issue). I have Mailman's pass_mime_types set to: multipart/mixed multipart/alternative multipart/related text/plain text/html Again, the non-text attachments removed message is only showing up in the digests.

Re: [Mailman-Users] footer
If you have the ability to patch your Mailman installation, you could add a new variable name (like mlist.fortune) to the ALLOWEDS array in Mailman/Gui/Digest.py and then use the 'withlist' command to set this variable to a new value every so often, and include it in the msg_footer field in your admin interface. Or you could do a more direct brutal patch to search replace a magic string of your choosing (__FORTUNE__ etc) with the output of a random fortune command, right in NonDigest.py .

Re: [Mailman-Users] 2nd request: migrating a list from 1.1 to 2.1hosts?
Let me start off by saying that I have never personally done an upgrade from 1.1 straight to 2.1, so that all this as my best guess, not as gospel. It may in fact, be better to upgrade from 1.1 to 2.0(.13) and then from there to 2.1. That's more work of course, and it may be unnecessary work. TN == Tom Neff [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: TN A: Clone the MM1.1 directory somewhere (on either the TN original or new host) and then upgrade that clone to 2.1. TN Copy the resulting config into the real 2.1 tree as a new TN list. (I should probably pre-create the migrated lists on the TN 2.1 host first, so I can do selective file overwrites without TN missing some of the structure. The upgraded clone directory TN can be deleted afterwards. I would do something more like A, although I wouldn't pre-create the lists. Simply copy the config to a test area, do an upgrade, then run something like bin/list_lists to touch all the lists and get them upgraded. From there it should be an easy process to move the lists to your production 2.1 site (see below). TN I hope that the developer(s) understand that with the TN continued spread of Mailman, situations were listowners need TN to *migrate*, rather than upgrading in place, will be more TN common. It would be great to have some kind of robust export TN capability that was more or less version independent.

So I took the latest Scrubber.py from CVS (2.24), and swapped it into the 2.1 sources, rebuilt Mailman, and installed it. Now my attachment isn't gibberish anymore, but it has an .obj extension.

Nothing on the Mailman end needed to be changed. -- Jon Parise ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) :: http://www.csh.rit.edu/~jon/ -- 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/ This message was sent to: archive@jab.org Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
Re: [Mailman-Users] Additional Mailman 2.1 info
This is pretty much prima facia evidence that you are missing some Python modules. You can either trace them down, or do what i did - install python from source.

Re: [Mailman-Users] All addresses are being bounced...
This is indicative of your mailserver not listening on localhost (127.0.0.1) which is definitive of Red Hat's default Sendmail install. Read FAQ 3.14 for help in troubleshooting this problem.

[Mailman-Users] Links for AOHell users?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, I was asked by a customer today about the footer links on one of their lists and whether the links could be made to work with AOL's MUA (if it can be called an MUA). Any halfway decent MUA (and even MS OE) will allow a user to click on a link and open it in a browser, yet AOL doesn't work like this (at least not the versions that some of this customer's list members use). I already have personalization turned on for the list so I was wondering what it would take to check if user_address was an aol address and then change the link to add the a href required by AOL's brain dead MUA. I'd rather do this than change the links for everyone since there are (thankfully) relatively few AOL users. Has anyone else had to deal with this before (or better still, coded it :) ? If so, any pointers? I realize that what they should be told is, sorry, that's what you get for using an ISP that is 'so easy to use' (and the BOFH in me so badly wants to tell them!) but that's not always what customers want to hear. So I figure I'll ask quick before I either attempt to do this myself or tell my customer to tell the AOL users to deal with the effects of their bad choice in ISP's.

[Mailman-Users] bug in creating list via web-admin
Hey all, I was creating a testlist via the web-admin thingy, when I got the following error after hitting the create list submit button. No message was sent to me about the new list, even though I requested it. I cross-tested this by using the bin/newlist command, which was successful (no errors) and sent me a message regarding the new list. This seems to be a python permissions problem from the last line of the output. I'm running postfix on a redhat 7.3 box. I'm more than comfortable adding all the lists via command line, but since this come up I guess someone else should know about it. Kind Regards, Keith Mastin = Error: We're sorry, we hit a bug!

[Mailman-Users] Partial Restriction

[Mailman-Users] squirrelmail sends mailman message as attachment
Hey all, I'm running mailman-2.1 on a redhat 7.3 box with postfix-1.1.7-2, courier-imap-1.6.2-1.7.3, squirrelmail-1.2.10, php-4.1.2-7.3.6, and python2-2.2.2-3.7.3 When I send a message to the mailman list from SM, the test of the message is in an attachment, not in the text area of the message. When I send a message to the list from pine-4.44-7.73.0, the test of the message shows in the text area of the message. This is a brand new mailman deployment with thousands of potential users and an invite to join the list already sent to a huge announce list, so getting this fixed is critical. I'm curious about the server-side configuration for this list and what the problem could be. Any information needed to debug will be sent on request.
