[Mailman-Users] Mailing List not receiving emails
Hi guys, I have created a list called group-mailman I sent some invites and people responded and now have 10 members. But when they try to send a message they got the following error messages : The e-mail account does not exist at the organization this message was sent to. Check the e-mail address, or contact the recipient directly to find out the correct address. I verified with netstat -na port 25 is indeed open What else can I possibly look into ? Many thanks. neilrey -- 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

If you take a look in $PREFIX/mailman/data/aliases, you'll see that Mailman's nice enough to do it for you :-) Just make sure you include $PREFIX/mailman/data/aliases in your main /etc/aliases file. (Refer to your MTA's documenation for how to do this.) However, if you're using Postfix, you have two options that I know of: At the end of /etc/aliases: :include: $PREFIX/mailman/data/aliases ...or go here: http://www.gurulabs.com/goodies/downloads.php and grab a copy of postfix-to-mailman-2.1.py and read the instructions within. :) Best! --Glenn Thank you for the help Glenn ..

Re: [Mailman-Users] Determine List Bandwidth

Since there is no inbuilt way to do this with Mailman, I wrote a Python script to parse the POST log and take the size of the posts to a specific list and then multiply that by the number of active subscribers at the time this script was run. This gets the stats from the day before the script is run. I also said that I would let everyone know if I found a way to do it, here is the script. Keep in mind that I don't know Python (I spent an awful lot of time googling and read Python Docs :) That and I haven't actually tried this on my live server, just a backup of the post log file.

[Mailman-Users] notification system
I have installed Mailman in hopes of using it as a type of 'notification' system. For example, a user subscribes to the list, and after subscribing I can send him/her an email notifiying them an event that happens on my website. The event would be unique for this user and should only be sent to him/her. Is mailman the appropriate program for me? If not, can anyone suggest another standard program that would do the job?

Send a notice to that list, and all recipients will receive a copy. But you don't have a list per recipient. If you did, then why would you bother with a mailing list system -- why not just send a message directly to each of those users? The event would be unique for this user and should only be sent to him/her. That's not going to work. Is mailman the appropriate program for me? If not, can anyone suggest another standard program that would do the job? If every user has a unique event that only they care about, you will probably need to build your own system -- just have a database of users and what events they're interested in, and then send out e-mail messages every time one of those events happen. -- Brad Knowles, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety. -- Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790), reply of the Pennsylvania Assembly to the Governor, November 11, 1755 LOPSA member since December 2005.

And, as easy as it was to install, it's been completely painless to upgrade. The lovely thing about that is: It encourages people to run the latest release, thus benefiting from the security patches and new features. Kudos to the team! :) (And, yes, the first sentence is completely tongue-in-cheek. I know there are other MTAs, and that people use them! :P~ ) Best, --Glenn -- They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. ~Benjamin Franklin, Historical Review of Pennsylvania, 1759 -- 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
