[Mailman-Users] Mailing List not receiving emails

2006-01-21 Thread Neilrey Espino

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.

 Hey Lawrence!
 
 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!

Did you add the aliases to your alias file?

Also look in the FAQ at Article 1.7 http://www.python.org/cgi-

Re: [Mailman-Users] Determine List Bandwidth

 Is there any facility within Mailman to determine the bandwidth used
 by a specific list?

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.

Let me know if you see anything that can be improved.

#!/usr/local/bin/python

import os
import re
import datetime
import commands

# Full path to the post log file
FILE = '/full/path/to/post'
# The list of interest
LISTNAME = 'listname'

n = 0
bw = 0
# Get yesterdays date
yesterday = datetime.datetime.today() - datetime.timedelta(days=1)

# check for existence of file
if os.path.exists(FILE):
  # open file if it exists
  input = open(FILE, 'r')
  #Loop through file line by line
  for line in input:
# Check to see if we are on a record from yesterday
restr = yesterday.strftime(%b %d ) + \d\d:\d\d:\d\d \
+ yesterday.strftime( %Y)
if re.findall(r'%s' % restr, line):
# Check to see if the listname is in the line
# Check to see if the listname is in the line
if re.findall(r'%s' % LISTNAME, line):
ret = re.findall(r'size=\d*', line)
ret2 = re.findall(r'\d*', ret[0])
bw = bw + long(ret2[5])
n = n + 1

  print n, 'posts to %s yesterday' % LISTNAME
  print bw, ' bytes received'

  # Now check and see how many members are subscribed to the listi
  memb = 0
  op = commands.getoutput('/var/mailman/bin/list_members %s' % LISTNAME)
  #print op
  for line in op.splitlines():
  memb = memb + 1
  print memb,  members subscribed

  # Now get rid of the mebers that are set to nomail
  op = commands.getoutput('/var/mailman/bin/list_members --nomail %s'
% LISTNAME)
  for line in op.splitlines():
  memb = memb - 1

  print memb,  members receiving list mail

  # Now calculate the bandwidth
  tbw = bw * memb
  print Approximately , tbw,  bytes sent

else:
  print log file not found

[Mailman-Users] notification system

2006-01-21 Thread Matt Gostick
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?

Thanks,
Matt

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.

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.

You mean... there are *other* MTAs?? *grin, duck  run*

(Seriously, though--thanks for the catch.. :) I guess I just ASS-U-ME
everyone loves Postfix as much as I do ;-) )

ObReflection: It's hard to believe I've been running this software for
going on 5 years now. 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~ )
