[Mailman-Users] Email filtering
I have set my cpanel mail account to :fail: at mlmpros.biz for all addresses not specifically listed. My mailing list address is [EMAIL PROTECTED] . I am receiving numerous virus and spam emails with varrying addresses such as [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], etc. These emails are delivered to the list administrator as posts by a non-member to a members only list. WHY? They are not legitimate addresses.

You'll need to find your aliases file for your distro (mine is /etc/aliases), and add something like: test-owner: |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman owner test ...to it. When you created the list it should have given you this list of aliases to insert. There is one alias for each virtual email address used by mailman: test-request; test-subscribe etc. I can post my aliases stub here if you want. Then rebuild the aliases db with something like: newaliases Obviously the specifics depend on which versions of sendmail and mailman you are running, and in which folder you have installed it.

For example, Sendmail won't allow any application to send mail unless it resides in a specific directory (in my case /var/adm/sm.bin). To fix this problem, I had to place a link to the mailman program in /var/adm/sm.bin: $ ln -s /usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman /var/adm/sm.bin/mailman and change the aliases line to use the symlink instead of using the binary directly. The line would look something like this: test-owner: | /var/adm/sm.bin/mailman /tim -- Tim Faircloth, System Administrator GSW OIIT Office: (229) 931-5076 Beeper: (229) 928-1458 -- 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] 550: user unknown
Did you set up your aliases for the list in postfix's alias file? It looks from below like you set this up for mailman--not accessible by postfix.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Email filtering
MLMPros wrote: I have set my cpanel mail account to :fail: at mlmpros.biz for all addresses not specifically listed. That's only for mail sent TO non-existent email addresses at your domain. It does not check the From address on mail sent to you or your lists. If mail is addressed TO your mailing list, then that's a valid email address and it will get delivered to your list. Then Mailman looks to see who it's from and checks your list settings to see if it should be accepted or discarded or held for your approval. My mailing list address is [EMAIL PROTECTED] . I am receiving numerous virus and spam emails with varrying addresses such as [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], etc. It's a common spammer trick to use your own domain in the From address to evade spam filters. Viruses also spoof any domain they find on the infected computers. Spammers also send viruses to attempt to infect more computers and use them as spam proxies. These emails are delivered to the list administrator as posts by a non-member to a members only list. WHY? They are not legitimate addresses. Mailman can't verify if they are legitimate addresses, it can only check your list settings to see if they're members or if they pass other posting filters such as non-member addresses allowed to post, etc. You can set your list to discard postings from non-members. Go to Privacy Options Sender Filters and for Action to take for postings from non-members for which no explicit action is defined, select Discard and click the Submit Your Changes button. Then all those spam and viruses will be automatically discarded and you won't see them. 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/
[Mailman-Users] Re: Exporting
John S. Strock wrote: I'm moving from one hosting company to another, how can I export my current list so that I can import it into mailman on my new server? I'm currently running mailman v2.1.3. My experience was from a crash and restore - with a move from 2.1.2 to 2.1.4 in the process. I tarred the whole Mailman directory, transferred it, and untarred in to a dummy directory. I installed Mailman as normal (new version) and created the Mailman list. Then I copied prefixmailman/lists/ and prefix/mailman/archives from the dummy to the new install. Added the aliases, and it all worked perfectly. I don't see why you can't just tar and move prefixmailman/lists/ and prefix/mailman/archives.

[Mailman-Users] Where is 'last autoresponse' limit set?
I've been getting emails like this from the system: Subject: Last autoresponse notification for today We have received a message from your address [EMAIL PROTECTED]' requesting an automated response from the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list. We have seen 10 such messages from you today. In order to avoid problems such as mail loops between email robots, we will not be sending you any further email responses today. Please try again tomorrow. I have no control over how many spams from non-members get sent to the list so why should there be a limit as to how many times I can cancel such postings by return email? -- One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one's work is terribly important. -- Bertrand Russell Rick Pasotto[EMAIL PROTECTED]http://www.niof.net -- 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/
