[Mailman-Users] emailhost vs urlhost

2005-08-29 Thread Michael Schaarwaechter
Hi,

I had to configure different DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST from DEFAULT_URL_HOST.
That works for the lists and for the admin pages of the lists. It
doesn't work for the general overview pages like /mailman/admin and
/mailman/listinfo. The link on the admin page to the listinfo page and
vice versa contains the email_host, not the url_host.

Bug or feature? ;-)

Cheers,
Michael

[Mailman-Users] Mailman CGI Error in chroot

2005-08-29 Thread Fabian Werner
Hello everybody.

Im writing to this list, because i want to get Mailman's web interface
to work. The problem is: Mailman works in a chroot (in partnership with
exim).

Mail delivery and everything works fine, but when i want to use the web
interface i get the following error:

Mailman CGI error!!!
The Mailman CGI wrapper encountered a fatal error. This entry is being
stored in your syslog:

No such file or directory

There is nothing reported in the syslog, but that may be a fault of my
chroot...

Anyway, Mailman has everything it needs to function in the chroot
(/var/lib/mailman complete and /usr/lib/mailman complete). Those two
mentioned paths contain a symlink called wrapper.

Question is: Where does mailman search for this wrapper? Why cant he
find it on my system?


Thanks (in advance) for your help!!

Regards, Fabian Werner (germany).

use mount bind to include mailman dir into web chroot, is the easy way

I think it is a bug. If I am correct, it only appears when
VIRTUAL_HOST_OVERVIEW is set Off in mm_cfg.py. In this case, assuming
the deprecated DEFAULT_HOST_NAME is not set, Utils.get_domain()
returns DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST instead of DEFAULT_URL_HOST.

This is not an issue for list specific pages as they use the list
attribute web_page_url.

I have submitted this to the bug tracker. See

The reply from Sythos:

may be the solution, but I just want to point out that the referenced
message comes from the wrapper so the file that isn't found is not the
wrapper, but rather the script the wrapper is trying to load which is
path_to/scripts/driver where the 'path_to' part was determined by
configure.

[Mailman-Users] envelope sender address massaging?

2005-08-29 Thread Dave Rasmussen
We have a problem here on campus that I'm sure other sites have addressed.
We currently use [EMAIL PROTECTED] as our users addresses but in the past and
with some remaining legacy systems they still have [EMAIL PROTECTED]

In listproc I used to have an alias file to set to do this for all the
users that would come along and just translate csd.uwm.edu to uwm.edu.
This was not a whitelist by the way.

Is there a way to do this with mailman?

Ahhh... yeah.  The question is, what next?  I run into this fairly often 
(a few times a month) when trying to delete spam that's awaiting my 
approval.

Looking at the archives to the mailing list, I've seen that different 
people have had this problem since 2003 in one form or another.

I've discovered if I clean out any list's list of pending mail, I can 
copy the appropriate files to the other lists and delete the offending 
pending files.  However, this really isn't a good answer to the question.

Sure,  non-ascii characters aren't legal in email addresses, subject 
lines, and so on.  However, the spammers don't seem to mind... 
personally, I'd be just as happy of Mailman dropped those messages into 
the bit bucket without even telling me about it, though that may not 
really be a good answer.

Still, it seems Mailman should be able to handle the illegal data a bit 
more elegantly what's the old system designer mantra, Never test 
for an error condition you don't know how to handle?

 My host provider runs MailMan 2.1.5.  I like it, but the problem I'm

I've got the headers, and I don't see a Deliver Status Notification 
specific one.  There are a few MailMan headers, but not that specific one.

I've 
got the bounce processor turned off, and all the notifications come to 
me, so the users are unaware (as far as I can tell).
 
 I'm not sure why you're seeing anything if bounce processing is turned
 off for the list. Normally, returned bounces are just discarded if
 bounce processing is off. Perhaps you're talking about notifications
 from when bounce processing was on.

Here's the appropriate information from Bounce processing Section:

==
bounce_processing : No
bounce_score_threshold: 5.0
bounce_info_stale_after: 0
bounce_you_are_disabled_warnings : 30
bounce_you_are_disabled_warnings_interval : 7
bounce_unrecognized_goes_to_list_owner : Yes
bounce_notify_owner_on_disable : Yes
bounce_notify_owner_on_removal : Yes

 
snip
 Are you seeing the actual bounce notifications that are being
 returned? If so, they will tell you why the mail is bouncing. Without
 that information, people can only guess.

 If you are getting (have gotten) notifications to the list owner from
 Mailman, the triggering bounce message should be attached to the
 notification.

I get at the bottom of the bounce notification a copy of the email that 
caused the member to be bounced.  Here are a few of the headers:

X-Originating-Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
FROM: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
X-Return-Path: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
To:  HH talk [EMAIL PROTECTED]

This is the URL:
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,167235,00.html

That's it.  No other message, or text.  Just the URL.

 You could also try adjusting the bounce processing settings. If for
 example, you set bounce_score_threshold to 5.0 and
 bounce_info_stale_after to 4, then the only people who get disabled
 will be those who have five or more bounces with no more than 4 days
 between them. It sounds like your spurious bounces don't happen that
 often, but if you really have a bad address, this should get that as
 long as you normally get posts every day or two.

I'll try that.  I've just moved bounce_info_stale_after to 4, and I'll 
keep the threshold at 5.0

Thanks for helping me to improve the information, and the config tips.

Dave

It appears to be saying that the MysqlMemberships.py member adaptor

Not within Mailman, no.  But you could easily do this within the 
MTA, depending on which MTA you're using.

[Mailman-Users] All members treated as nonmembers redux

2005-08-29 Thread David Josephson
We had a list (MM 2.1.5 under sendmail) suddenly stop working, with logs
showing that all incoming messages (from members and nonmembers alike)
were being discarded. Configs had been set to discard without copying to
the list admin, and it is a relatively low volume list, so it wasn't
noticed for a while. During troubleshooting we re-enabled
forward_auto_discards and the moderator approval page for each incoming
post showed post by nonmember to members-only list *and* poster is a
member of ... list.  Following up on an earlier answer to this sort of
problem, we commented out the SENDER_HEADERS = ('from') line in
mm_cfg.py and this fixed the problem. Question is, how did this break in
the first place? And why did it apply to only one list? Other lists, and
new lists created since then, work fine. There is mention of being able
to modify member checking on a per-list basis but I was not able to find
where to do this.

There was a server reboot (for other reasons) at about the same time
this problem appeared.

During this debugging process we also upgraded from 2.1.5 to 2.1.6,
could this have been a default of the 2.1.6 install, and the real
problem was something else?

Thanks ...

David Josephson

Mark,

I really do appreciate the help.

Here's what's so odd about the whole situation, and what really throws 
me for a curve.  The message that shows at the bottom of the first 
Bounce Notification has been sucessfully posted to the list.  It's 
accepted by MailMan, with a timestamp of 10:55.  The very next message I 
have from the list is the first Bounce Notification, timestamped at 
10:57.  I have no other messages from the list between 10:55 and 10:57. 
  Then at 10:57 PM, I get the first of 55 or so bounce notifications.

Looking back at the email message, I see the message The triggering 
bounce notice is attached below..  For clarity I include the entire 
message here between the xx's:



This is a Mailman mailing list bounce action notice:

 List:   HH_Talk
 Member: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 Action: Subscription disabled.
 Reason: Excessive or fatal bounces.

That's it.  One last thing I've checked is to see if the Message-ID: of 
the posted message, and the Message-ID: of the attached triggering 
bounce notice are the same.  They are.

Thanks again for your time,

Dave

Mike Looking at the archives to the mailing list, I've seen that
Mike different people have had this problem since 2003 in one
Mike form or another.

Actually, not.  (See below.)

Mike Still, it seems Mailman should be able to handle the illegal
Mike data a bit more elegantly what's the old system designer
Mike mantra, Never test for an error condition you don't know
Mike how to handle?

The error condition being tested for is all other errors, and we
know how to handle those ... preserve the post, log the condition,
and let someone burn real neurons figuring it out.  Although I'm not
a Mailman developer, I do know a little about I18N, and it seems to me
from a brief look at the code that the problem is that there are a
number of different ways that such data can leak out to where it needs
to get processed, and the process has been to fix them in place as
they are identified.  (I've seen two or three of these bugs fixed in
the last year, I suspect your spammers have found Yet Another Path to
the error handler.)

What really needs to be done for Mailman 2.1 is a complete audit of
all the places where headers are accessed, but you know how expensive
that is.  For Mailman 3, what probably should be done is to rip out
all of the current just-in-time I18N processing of headers, and
preprocess every header, tagging them with their charsets.  Binary
headers would be tagged as bogus rather than binary.

Now if I could just beg, borrow, or steal a few round tuits
