[Mailman-Users] where are my emails going?
Hi Everyone. Hope someone can help me out. When I send email to my list, it usually appears in the tend to pending moderator requests, so I authorise it and off it goes to everyone on the list. The last 3 that I have sent have never appeared for authorisation, they've not gone out to list members and they haven't been returned to me so I don't know where they're going, the email address is correct. Any suggestions?

hi to everyone, i was about to complete postfix+mailman integration when i got an error due to virtual-mailman.db file. as aliases and aliases.db are generated with genaliases, none of the virtual-mailman are created and, for so, postfix doesn't recognize lists addresses or mailman-owner. could anyone help me on how can i generate those files? thanks! -- esteve serra clavera [EMAIL PROTECTED] signature.asc Description: Esta parte del mensaje =?ISO-8859-1?Q?est=E1?= firmada digitalmente -- 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/
[Mailman-Users] web interface not saving changes
Hello Everyone, I just installed the latest release of Mailman on linux. The web interface works to display list information, etc, but changing settings in the forms does not save the settings. When I hit submit, the browser seems to send the request, but then it just loads the same exact form again. Furthermore, the POST requests are not even showing up in the Apache logs (access or error_log). Is this likely to be a permissions or ownership problem? Or maybe something misconfigured in httpd.conf?

[Mailman-Users] site list web loop
I've always had major problems with the site list (Mailman). I've never really understood why it is required, and only about half the docs out there say to set it up (confusing) and the others don't mention it at all. I've tried running my site with and without this list, and settled on with as the proper solution. However, lately the following has been occuring: 1. I get viruses (or even legit emails) sent to that email address ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). 2. Mailman sends me an email telling me of pending moderator requests. It tells me to click on the included link to mysite.com/mailman/admindb/mailman 3. I click on that link and am taken straight to (must be through redirections): http://mysite.com/mailman/listinfo 4. I click on the Mailman - no description available link which I can see in the source as pointing to http://mysite.com/mailman/listinfo/mailman 5. I am sent nowhere... and am still on the /listinfo page. It must be trying to hit listinfo/mailman but redirecting back to listinfo. 6. I'm now in an endless loop and I can never get in to clear the pending requests! NOTES: my other 4 mailing lists work perfectly through this interface -- it's just the site list that causes problems. My mailman system has been upgraded many times since I started using it with RH7.3 (now on FC1). I always try to preserve existing lists/archives. This has always been a great challenge as no docs really discuss this issue in detail and I've had to wing it. The reason I mention this is that there is a good chance my weird migration methods have messed something up. I suppose it depends if anyone has this weird problem also! (try it on your site list and see!) I could find no references to this problem in the mailing list archives or the web or usenet (all using google), but this is a hard one to define search terms for so I apologize if I missed a previous solution. -- 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/

[Mailman-Users] Message Approval by Moderator
I'm very new to Mailman and I only have access to the Mailman (and Exim) software on our servers via a CPanel. I need to set up our content filtering very conservatively because the list members don't always remember our rules and sometimes send messages in a format we don't accept -- HTML. The first message to get caught by the rule was sent to me as the list administrator, but was otherwise discarded according to the Mailman message that came with it. I've changed the option to Preserve the message although I'm not sure what that will do differently. I'm hoping it will then appear in pending moderator messages. The list is not moderated, although there are two moderators identified to Mailman for dealing with problems. I would like to approve the message and send it on to the list. How do I do that?

[Mailman-Users] (no subject)
I couldnt figure out how to post this in the 'Wiki', so Im sending it here. Hello, I came across this on the TODO list for Mailman 2.1: # better tools for the membership management page. i.e. divide chunks alphabetically, and add a search for member by regexp field. (Done) While this is fantastic to have be what is displayed by detault, what seems to have been forgotten, is: Provide a link or button to request that the full member roster be displayed on one page, regardless of the number of members At least, I cant seem to find a way to do it. It might also be better to provide an option to divide the list into chunks, but not have a seperate page for each letter/character. Eg, if a list had 60 members, the first 30 on the first page, the second 30 on the next. (even if they start with a wide variety of characters.) Another idea might be, if there are less than chunksize members displayed, keep adding members until there are. Eg, lets say chunksize was 30, and there were 2 members starting with a 5 members starting with b 10 members starting with c 6 members starting with d 12 members starting with e 4 members starting with f 6 members starting with g 10 ... h Having to display each of those on a seperate page is tedious to work with in the UI. Instead, on the a page, display the 2 a's, the 5 b's, the 10 c's, the 6 d's, and the first 7 e's. The 'e' page, would display, all 12 e's, the 4 f's and the 6 g's, and the first 8 h's etc.. -- 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/

[Mailman-Users] Automatically rejecting posts by non-members
We are currently locked into Mailman 2.0.6 until we upgrade our server. One of our list owners who runs a moderated list would like to be able to reject all posts from non-members automatically so the only things that hit the pending requests are subscription requests and posts by legitimate members (or spoofed SPAM). My questions are: Is there a filter available similar to the MIME strippers or Has someone patched Mailman to do something like this? Is there a built-in filter in 2.1.x. -- Jerry Feldman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Boston Linux and Unix user group http://www.blu.org PGP key id:C5061EA9 PGP Key fingerprint:053C 73EC 3AC1 5C44 3E14 9245 FB00 3ED5 C506 1EA9 pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature -- 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/

Thanks for your information about the MIME strippers. I think, though, that Mailman 2.1.3, which is the version provided by my web host, has something that does that. This is fortunate for me, because I do not have access to the aliases file from cpanel (or any other way with this web host). Basically, I've asked Mailman to remove any message attachments that aren't in text/plain and to convert HTML to plain text. And, as far as I can tell, Mailman did that with the message it forwarded to me. I now want to forward that message to the mailing list. In Majordomo, I would have simply added the line Approved: [password] and mailed it to the post address for the mailing list. Then, Majordomo would delete my approval and the message would get distributed just as if it came directly from the list member who sent it. I'm trying to figure out Mailman's equivalent of that. I am explaining myself badly because I'm so new to Mailman. I'm assuming that if Mailman had put this message in Tend to pending moderator requests, Mailman would have provided some way of approving it and sending it on through the web interface. I've not gotten anything that needed moderator action yet, so I have no idea what happens then. Instead Mailman sent the message to me and now I have to figure out how to get it distributed to the mailing list remotely via email and have it look as though it came directly (headers and all) from the list member who sent it to the mailing list. I'm trying to find out how to do that.
