[Mailman-Users] Fwd: Mailman web interfaces and design

2003-04-03 Thread CARTER Anthony

Hi,

I am looking for a means of customizing the mailman we pages. I have noticed
that some pages can be edited via the interface, but I would like to make
more drastic changes (removing links to admin page for example).

My first thing that I would like to do is, if possible, to add our own CSSs
 to the web pages. Does anyone know if this is possible, and if so, where do
 I start?

Thanks,
Anthony Carter

Re: [Mailman-Users] trimming archives

 How do you trim back archives? I presume

 find {$MAILMAN}/archives/private -name *.gz -exec rm {} \;

 would be a bad idea as the indices still think they exist (or would
 the cronjobs fix this)



Before I get a flurry of RTF-faq messages, perhaps I should explain in better
detail. Let's say I wanna remove ALL archived data prior to 2003. I could

find {$MAILMAN}/archives/private -name 2002-* -exec rm -rf {} \;

which will take care of the txt an gzipped files and running
{$MAILMAN}/bin/arch `{$MAILMAN}/bin/list_lists`
would theoretically rearchive them but the problem is the index.html files
for each list still has a stanza for each month.

What I'm looking for is an automated way of cleaning things up. I don't
wanna have to manually edit the idex.html altho it sounds like I may have to
ie something like doing another find for index.html, exec sed where it
searches for 2002, go back a line to the beginning of the tr stanza,
delete to EOF, and re-add /table /BODY /HTML Yech

[Mailman-Users] Monitoring Server

2003-04-03 Thread Sullivan, John
I have sent a newsletter to 5 subscribers - The server seems to be
running slow - noticeable when I go the MailMan Web administration. 

Does any one have any pointers for me so I can check: 

If the server is done sending all of the email out? -I checked the maillog
but there is so much info in there its not really helpful in this case. 

How I can limit the time the server tries sending an email to a particular
address - Ive notices a fair amount of undeliverables - and the server seems
to try and resend it for a set amount of time. 

Also anyone know any free tools that will allow me to monitor in real time
server processing - cpu load - Ram usage etc... 

Thanks. 

John

Depends on your MTA - not a Mailman issue.

Depends on your OS.
However trying looking at top, sar, mrtg to name a few.

Information on optimizing throughput is given in the FAQ - see bottom of
every list message for a pointer.

[Mailman-Users] Problem with Postfix + Mailman,unresolved aliases...

2003-04-03 Thread Emilio Giulio Orsenigo
Hi all, i have a problem with my installation of Mailman on Postfix;
That's the first time i try to install Mailman, so i've read all of the 
archives and FAQ's before deciding to post on this mailing list :(

The (weird) problem is simply this one: my postfix authenticate against a 
MySQL database, and there are the aliases too. Mailman had his own aliases 
file, to keep in synchro with postfix. I've configured Mailman (i think it 
is ok) so when i wrote to [list-name][at][domain] the MTA catch correctly 
the alias [list-name] in the aliases file. Now comes the trouble: the alias 
is in this form:

pippo: |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post pippo
[others follows]
where pippo is the list name.

So, i don't get mail delivered, and in the postfix logs i read:

Apr  3 18:53:22 firewall postfix/local[31956]: D27286D464: 
to=|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post [EMAIL PROTECTED], 
orig_to=[EMAIL PROTECTED], relay=local, delay=0, status=bounced (unknown 
user: |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post pippo)

just like it was searching a user called |/usr/local/...blabla !!!

And the thing i can't understand is that if i from the shell do:

# su postfix
# echo [fake-mail with headers] | /usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

i got the mail perfectly delivered to all subscribers of [EMAIL PROTECTED], 
being [EMAIL PROTECTED] the mailing list in question.

It seems that there are some problem for postfix (or mailman? uh?) to 
resolve the instruction piped in the alias... please, help me, i'm going 
crazy about this.

Thx in advance

Emilio

P.s. - i'm sorry for my surely-not-perfect english, i hope that it is 
anyway understandable... :P

[Mailman-Users] Posts are bypassing moderator

2003-04-03 Thread John Sullivan
I installed Mailman 2.0.13 in November 2002. Set up a list and it works
flawlessly. 

Last week I attempted to setup another list and ALL HELL HAS BROKEN LOOSE! First
the newlist command would not work. Our ISP tech support ,NTT/Verio,
reconfigured and rehashed the program and said try again. I did and still I'm
having a problem.

The end result is, I have a new list which exactly mirrors the good list setup
in November, yet when posting a message, the message goes out to the list and
does not stop at the moderator for approval. 

Verio has spent hours on this reconfiguring all kinds of email accounts,
aliases, etc and finally told me this morning that they don’t' support Mailman
anyway so they can no longer help. I only know a few commands necessary to run
this program through the Unix server and I prefer to manage using the web
interface when possible.

One thought I did have was to re-install Mailman on the server and start over
but I do not want to affect the one good list that works great. Can I
re-install without causing more trouble?

Something? Anything?
Thanks.

[Mailman-Users] Multiple Mailman Problems

2003-04-03 Thread Gordon Guthrie
I have installed Debian Woody and set Mailman up (updated to the woody5 
security release).

The problems I'm having is that none of the options I set in the admin pages 
seem to work, for instance:
1 - Setting: Prefix for subject line of list postings - not used in e-mails

2 - Setting: Where are replies to list messages directed? Poster is strongly 
recommended for most mailing lists - always shows the original poster, can't 
make Reply-To work (even with Explict)

3 - Archive messages? - nothing is archived, ever - the mailboxes in 
$prefix/archive/private don't exist (the links from $prefix/archive/public 
do exist though)

4 - Footer added to mail sent to regular list members - no footer added to 
e-mail

I have done most of the security stuff suggested in the Securing Debian 
manual - which implies setting up PAM and doing lots of security stuff...

I get a Tiger message that the user list has no login capability - even 
though there are cron jobs that depend on it, I'm not sure what that means 
for me though...

Any help appreciated...

Gordon
