Re: [Mailman-Users] Surgemail, FreeBSD and Mailman
__ From: Russ Pagenkopf [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Mailman-Users] Surgemail, FreeBSD and Mailman Date: Mon, 08 Nov 2004 20:26:36 -0900 Hi all, Hope this isn't too simple a problem; either I can't wrap my head around it or I can't find it in the documentation/faq anywhere. Anyways, I'm running FreeBSD 4.9, Python 2.3_1, Surgemail 2.1c7 and Mailman 2.1.5. Compiled fine and did the initial INSTALL steps. Have run check_perm a few time and have stopped getting errors. Created a new list via the web page called testlist and added my email address via the account management screen. When I went to send a test email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I got an error message in response from the local mail server. I don't use Surgemail, but I get similar errors when using Postfix (our MTA) if I don't set up the aliases in the postfix mail alias file (under linux, /etc/postfix/aliases) for the list that I created . A typical alias for a test list might look like: testlist: |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post testlist testlist-admin:|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman admin testlist testlist-bounces: |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman bounces testlist testlist-confirm: |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman confirm testlist testlist-join: |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman join testlist testlist-leave:|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman leave testlist testlist-owner:|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman owner testlist testlist-request: |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman request testlist testlist-subscribe:|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe testlist testlist-unsubscribe: |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe testlist After adding these entries, I have to execute the postfix newaliases command to register them. If I forget either step, I get very similar errors to the one below.

To remove the a message from the archives you need shell access to the server running mailman and access the ~mailman/bin commands. Edit the mbox file for the list to remove the message and run ~mailman/bin/arch to rebuild the archive. Run arch with the --wipe option to remove the original archive before rebuilding.

[Mailman-Users] LDAP for list owner auth during creation
Has anyone done any work on modifying Mailman 2.1 so that when a user tries to create a mailing list it authenticated them against an LDAP server and uses an LDAP attribute such as 'mail' to populate the list owner address field? It would also be nice to have a way of logging in as said list owner (authenticating against LDAP) and getting a list owner screen showing all the lists they own. Any helpful tips if/when I do it myself would be appreciated.

Your post yesterday said: Hi all, is there any way to prevent some domains to be disabled/removed by bounce processing? I thought this and your first paragraph above ask about not processing bounces from specific members domains. Your second paragraph above seems to ask about disabling bounce processing for entire lists. This latter is easy to do by list, just set bounce_processing to No on the list's Bounce Processing page. However, a list member's autoresponder normally doesn't result in a recognized bounce.
