[Mailman-Users] keep back mails of users
hi i'm a beginner and i have a question. perhaps somebody of you know the answer. i created a new list for mailman. now a want 2 kinds of users: - the first group should be able to send the mail directly to mailman and mailman should dispose the mail to the list members. - the second group of users can send mails too. but the mail needs a release by the administrator. is this possible ? how ? thanks for help best regards emmi -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org 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/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showamp;file=faq01.027.htp

IIRC you can set a moderated flag individually for users. All users that are *not* moderated have their mails passed through immediately, the others' contributions are held back and an administrator or moderator has to pass them through.

[Mailman-Users] Server not connected in smtp-failure log
Howdy all, I have my mailman list set up as an E-Newsletter distribution list, i.e. only email that I approve goes out to the list. I am seeing the following errors being repeated over and over in my /usr/local/mailman/logs/smtp-failure log delivery to [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed with code -1: Server not connected I found a possible solution to this in mailman-users list: Write this line in your mm_cfg.py MTA = 'Postfix' SMTPHOST = 'aa.bb.cc.dd' I already had the MTA line correct, but didn't have the SMTPHOST line. I've added that line. My questions: 1) do I need to do anything to get mailman to re-read mm_cfg.py? 2) Will mailman re-attempt to deliver the email to this user or will he have to wait for my next newsletter email?

[Mailman-Users] Emails coming through as maillist-bounces - is this normal?
Hi everyone, I've searched the FAQ and come up with nothing. Please be gentle if this is a dumb question... A client of ours has a mailman list set up called [EMAIL PROTECTED] For some reason, when anybody posts to this list, the return address of the list comes across as [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of firstname lastname (User and domain specific details modified) Anyways, is this the default behavior/ Is there any way to force it to send out emails as [EMAIL PROTECTED] and not awake-bounces?

Re: [Mailman-Users] Server not connected in smtp-failure log
Ok, I think I've found the solution, I didn't need to mess with the SMTPHOST, since localhost works just fine. I commented that line out of my mm_cfg.py file. The following was set in my Default.py file SMTPPORT = 0 I changed it to the following in my mm_cfg.py file SMTPPORT = 25 And now it looks as though it's working. Wonder why it was set to 0 in the Default file. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Hanby Sent: Tuesday, August 30, 2005 11:53 To: mailman-users@python.org Subject: Re: [Mailman-Users] Server not connected in smtp-failure log Bah, ok, I'm still having trouble with this.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Best way to limit list admin power?

I am looking for a way to limit some of the abilities a list administrator has over their subscribers on the subscriber member option pages. Specifically, I'd like to disable the list administrator from being able to globally change anything for the user, disable viewing the other subscriptions, and even disable the setting of a password. I don't mind the administrator being able to change things for a subscriber for the particular list they administer, but I don't want them affecting user options on other lists. What's the best way to do this? Has anyone else had to deal with this issue in a large Mailman installation? If so, what have you done? -Dave -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org 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/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/halsema%40purdue.edu Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showamp;file=faq01.027.htp I am following up my own post.
