I put the following in mm_cfg.py and it appears to have fixed it..

# Don't spam detect on owner messages or we'll get a loop
OWNER_PIPELINE = [
#   'SpamDetect',
'Replybot',
'OwnerRecips',
'ToOutgoing',
]

It seems strange that this isn't the default to be honest, I submitted an 
RFE :)

You need to add something like this to your apache config
# Mailman
Alias /pipermail "/usr/local/mailman/archives/public/"
ScriptAlias /mailman/ "/usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin/"

   Options FollowSymLinks ExecCGI

Yup, you're absolutely right.

[Mailman-Users] mailman directory?

[Matt Singerman]

Hi all,

I installed Mailman on a FreeBSD system from the ports collection;
however, I cannot get the webpages to display properly.  The mailman
directory does not appear under the document root.  Where can I find
the necessary files, and how do I configure this properly?

Thanks,

Matt

from Defaults.py:

# Set these variables if you need to authenticate to your NNTP server  
for
# Usenet posting or reading.  If no authentication is necessary,  
specify None
# for both variables.
NNTP_USERNAME = None
NNTP_PASSWORD = None

Is this not what you are discussing?

The existing NNTP feature does not include any authentication 
that I know of.  There are a number of known existing issues with the 
NNTP gatewaying function, some of which I'm hoping to get addressed 
soon.  But authentication is not on my list of things I'm concerned 
about.

[Mailman-Users] Searching archives

[Skip Taylor]

Is there a way to search private list archives in Mailman?
 
I thought I had seen something about patches but it seems that link has 
disappeared on me.

I've done some more checking, it seems that there wasn't a problem 
at all (or at least, Mailman is not processing requests twice). Your 
suggestion made sense... Said e-mails had "subscribe" both in the 
subject line and in the body, causing two subscription requests to be 
processed :
Despite this being much of a case "all this trouble for nothing", 
having Mailman process the same request twice for the same e-mail 
doesn't make much sense (I'd count it as a bug, really). Thanks to 
everyone for their input on the "problem" :)

[Mailman-Users] help discarding postings

[Jason Novotny]

Hi,

Our production server is using MailMan v2.0.13 and as a list admin I 
get all kinds of pending spam requests from non-subscribers. Where is 
the option to simply discard all postings from non-subscribers and not 
send me any reminders or info?

Thanks, Jason
