[Mailman-Users] Uncaught Bounce Notifications w/ Auto Responder
Hello again, I checked the archives but couldn't find anything that addressed this particular issue. I am on the latest release of mailman. I have each of my lists set to send out and auto-responder questionnaire. Prior to the upgrade it used to be sent by listname-owner, now it is being sent by listname-bounces, so when the user hits reply to send back the questionnaire it is replying to listname-bounces. What this does is send the email back to the owner with this in the subject line Uncaught bounce notification. How do I fix this?

[Mailman-Users] administrative requests default action
I'm using Mailman 2.1.2 with Python 2.1.3 with Solaris 8. I've seen a similar question on this list, but the answer was "get Mailman 2.1". I have a list that gets more spam than legit email. I would like to have the "Action to take on all these held messages" on the "admindb/" page to have a default of "discard" instead of "defer". This way I can quickly scan the "baddies" and then "submit all data" once I see they are all spam; no clicking on the "Discard" radio button. I don't want to use the Privacy Options -> Sender Filters option of: Action to take for postings from non-members for which no explicit action is defined. to be "discard". I know that the messages would come to me with the: Should messages from non-members, which are automatically discarded, be forwarded to the list moderator? but I really don't want the messages automatically coming to me; I want the member of my list to receive it if I click "Accept". Right now, I also wish this behavior for one list only, not as a default for all the lists that I have.

[Mailman-Users] mass subscription
I am just wondering if it is possible to 'cut out' a step in the subsccription process. I have 1,000's of opted in emails in a SQL database. These people have already said that they want to receive email from me. I can easily send them an email with a link to create a subscription email. But I don't want these people to have to go through the double opt in procedure. At least not until I can customize the subject line of the confirmation email. I am hoping to send out an invitation that all they have to do is respond to it, and then they will receive the 'welcome' email from my list. Has anyone done something similar? I want to do this soon. The list has been active for 2 days and I already have over 500 subscribers. These people are also in my other database and therefore would receive an invite to a list that they already belong to. -- 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: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
Re: [Mailman-Users] Confusion with archives and mailman
On Wednesday, July 23, 2003, at 06:09 PM, Tom Crummey wrote: Hello, I'm having some problems with Mailman and archiving. I'm using Mailman 2.1.2 on Solaris 8 with a Netscape webserver and sendmail. The problems are: 1) Attachments with archived postings in private archives are not sent with the correct content-type header. Attachments in public archives are OK. I guess this is because the public ones are handled directly by the web server whereas the private ones pass through Mailman in some way. Does anyone know how to fix this? Assuming you are using the internal pipermail archiver: The only difference between private and public archives is that there is a symlink to $prefix/archives/private/ in $prefix/archives/public Private archives are delivered by the script $prefix/Mailman/Cgi/private.py. This script uses the Python mimetypes module to determine the value of the Content-type: header rather than the contents of the mime.types file used by Apache. The Python mimetypes module has an init() function for initializing its internal data structure with extra suffix to mime type mappings. Try inserting the following line after line 23 of file $prefix/Mailman/Cgi/private.py, with the path to your Apache servers mime.types file, to see if that improves matters: mimetypes.init(['/etc/httpd/mime.types']) 2) Private archives can be read by anyone who knows the correct URL. This is a permissions problem, but check_perms does not indicate any problems. Anyone any ideas on how to hide the private archives? This is a web server setup issue. The only way that private archives should be accessible by the web server is via URI's begining /mailman/private. This invokes the $prefix/Mailman/Cgi/private.py script which challenges for user credentials and checks them. What is the 'correct URL' you are referring to? Thanks.

[Mailman-Users] addresses in archive
hi, i must say first that i am very happy with mailman, which is working great. thanks to the developers. my problem at the moment is with the archive. i want to configure the archive such that email addresses are mangled. that is, archives don't show "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" but "someone at somewhere dot com", or something like that. i have been unable to find any documentation on this problem. i have looked at the mailman faq wizard, and have searched the mailman-users archive. i shall be very grateful for any help. mailman 2.0.13 redhat 8.0. python 2.2.1 thanks, -- saurav -- 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: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
[Mailman-Users] Confusion with archives and mailman
Hello, I'm having some problems with Mailman and archiving. I'm using Mailman 2.1.2 on Solaris 8 with a Netscape webserver and sendmail. The problems are: 1) Attachments with archived postings in private archives are not sent with the correct content-type header. Attachments in public archives are OK. I guess this is because the public ones are handled directly by the web server whereas the private ones pass through Mailman in some way. Does anyone know how to fix this? 2) Private archives can be read by anyone who knows the correct URL. This is a permissions problem, but check_perms does not indicate any problems. Anyone any ideas on how to hide the private archives? Thanks. Tom.

Re: [Mailman-Users] How to show name in the subscriber list mailman2.1.2 ?
Hello, Thanks to Richard, I came up with an extremely crude patch to do what Rob asked for. I modified the FormatUsers function in ~mailman/Mailman/HTMLFormatter.py At the end of this function there is a line: got = Link(url, showing) I changed it to be: gotname = self.getMemberName(person) got = Link(url, showing) got = Container(got, '-', gotname) And restarted Mailman. The bad news is that the name is rendered as u'John DeCarlo' u"Bill O'Grady" I don't know where the "u" comes from, but as I have said before, my Python skills are extremely crude. Hope this helps.

Re: Apology/Retry Re: [Mailman-Users] passwords, confirmation emails, clunky web interfaces, and my grandmother
David, David Hunt wrote: The company that hosts my website is running Mailman 2.1.2 (recently upgraded), and although they do fine for normal questions, I don't really think they're Mailman "experts". As for myself, I already know the options available in Mailman's web interface and understand most of them (I think). I have read what documentation I could find - which only amounted to the expanded explanations of those options. My questions boil down to: 1. Can you run a list without having passwords assigned to the subscribers at all? From the responses I've received, I'm guessing that it really can't be done (there's a feature suggestion), but I think I can come up with some workarounds, like the one suggested by Howard in http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2003-July/030023.html. As far as I know, the answer is "no". Try not to worry about it . 2. How can I change the confirmation and welcome emails? I still want them, but I want them to be completely different, not just with text added using that option. I've found this post from Todd http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2003-June/029473.html - which may help, except I can't find these folders in Mailman's web interface, and I'm not sure how to access them otherwise. What you can do, since you don't have shell access to change the files directly, is ask the hosting company to put your own files in the directory just for your own list(s). The URL you note has the info you require, namely: # 1. the list-specific language directory #lists// Swear to the hosting company that this will not affect any other list. Remind them that ~mailman/lists/ exists, but they have to create the subdirectory for the language, presumably for you "en". As to exactly what files you want to change, it might be easier for you to try an install on your own Linux machine and look at all the text files in ~mailman/templates/en because you may want to end up changing a bunch of them. -- John DeCarlo, My Views Are My Own -- 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: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
