[Mailman-Users] Retaining subscription confirmation messages
Greetings! Using Mailman 2.1.3 + Exim 4.30, I don't see a way to retain subscription confirmation messages. I've found some discussion of matching date+time in MM's subscribe log with the local MTA log as evidence of confirmation that includes the originating IP, but that seems like a half measure. Have I missed some aspect of MM that facilitates saving conformation messages? If the capability doesn't exist, wouldn't it make sense to have MM do this? -- Best regards, Mark [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- 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/
RE: [Mailman-Users] Switching web hosts.... Transferring mailman mailing lists
Hi, The following commands helped me to do this: bin/config_list -o filename listname bin/list_members -o filename listname These commands export to a text file the configuration settings for the list and the members of the list. To import the settings into the new list substitute -i for -o. To add the members use: bin/add_members -wn -an -r filename listname This will add them silently without sending notification of joining this list.

[Mailman-Users] Wrong host_name when creating list via webinterface
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1
Hello out there...
I just set up mailman on my Debian box, using the mailman
2.1.4-2.backports.org debian package from backports.org.
Everything seems to be ok, except one tiny bit... If I create a new list
via webinterface, the wrong hostname is used (namely 'domain.tld')-- if
I create it via command line, the right hostname is used (namely
'lists.domain.tld').
Nothing concerning my mailing lists is associated with 'domain.tld',
everything, including web traffic, has to use 'lists.domain.tld'. As a
result, I put 'lists.domain.tld' everywhere I could find before even
starting mailman the very first time.
I dove a bit further in this issue, but all I could find was that the
host_name config variable has been set inproperly when using the
webinterface to create a list. I even used the deprecated
DEFAULT_HOST_NAME variable in mm_cfg.py, but no result. I still have to
manually set the host_name in the list option page after creating.
My mm_cfg.py:
-
DEFAULT_URL = 'https://lists.domain.tld/cgi-bin/mailman/'
DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'lists.domain.tld'
DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'lists.domain.tld'
IMAGE_LOGOS = '/images/mailman/'
USE_ENVELOPE_SENDER = 0
DEFAULT_SEND_REMINDERS = 0
DEFAULT_HOST_NAME = 'lists.domain.tld'
HOST_NAME = 'lists.domain.tld'
MAILMAN_SITE_LIST = 'mailman'
PRIVATE_ARCHIVE_URL = '/cgi-bin/mailman/private'
DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN = 'https://%s/cgi-bin/mailman/'
PUBLIC_ARCHIVE_URL = 'https://%(hostname)s/pipermail/%(listname)s'
DEFAULT_SERVER_LANGUAGE = 'de'
VIRTUAL_HOSTS.clear()
add_virtualhost('lists.domain.tld')

That helps if you're trying to block everything except plain text, right? IIRC, Paul was trying to get Mailman to accept html posts but not attachments. He wasn't trying to block all but plain text (he knows how to do that :)). I'm not starting up the plain text vs. html argument, that's a very dead horse. No matter our personal opinions, there are valid reasons for wanting to set your own lists to accept html posts and still not accept attachments (I figure your lists, your rules, whatever floats your boat :)). The Mailman options make it appear that it ought to be possible to configure a list to allow html but not attachments but doing that as Paul and I have tried doesn't work. hth, texas critter -- EL-M FAQ: http://www.emaillist-managers.com/ -- 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/
Re: [Mailman-Users] I'm BEGGING for help here
Paul You are asserting that your tests show some problem exists but from a quick look at it, the code concerned is not obviously defective. Regarding your first problem; without an example input message, the corresponding output message with one list configuration and the output message with the other list configuration that demonstrate the fault it is difficult to see how to help identify the source of the problem you believe you are seeing. Same comment regarding your second problem. Why not post a bug report on sourceforge and attach a .tar.gz containing the test case messages that demonstrate the fault you believe exists. Some kind soul might then be able to help identify and correct the problem you assert exists.

Thanks TC, this is the first time anyone has confirmed this (I owe you some catnip now). I had the same problem in 2.1.2. It looks to me like the filtering system is close to useless, as it does not do what it says it does, and can not be made to do what it should be able to do. If a few others would confirm this I'll submit a bug report. Set up a test list and send the same html e-mail twice - once with filtering off, once with it on and the two fields empty and conversion off. The first test goes through with html intact, the second does not. I've also tried adding everything to the second field - still strips the html. As far as I can tell turning on filtering kills html formatting no matter how you configure it past that. And this is only the beginning of the problems I have with the content filtering.
