[Mailman-Users] Virtual Servers

2006-02-06 Thread Jon Loose
I am sure I should be able to sort this one out via
the documentation/threads, but am struggling to do so,
so some help would be appreciated!

I have successfully set up mailman 2.1.6 on my redhat
server, but now wish to use further domain names.  I
would like the domain names to be treated as
separately as possible, but reading through the docs,
it seems that I cannot have the same list name on
separate domains.  This is not an issue, so fine.

I have set up a virtual mail domain for a second
domain, and am able to successfully send/receive email
via this domain.

I have then changed the preferred domain for one of
my lists (via web interface) to this second domain. 
I'm sure there is more to do, but unsure exactly what:

The question is, what do I need to do next in
postfix/mailman to make the two work together?  

1 - Do I need to edit /etc/postfix/virtual?
2 - What changes do I need to make to mailman?
3 - Do I need to make any changes to httpd.conf or
other apache config files? (note that I can access the
mailman admin interface via domain1/mailman/admin and
also domain2/mailman/admin, but at present the list of
email lists only shows up via domain1/mailman/admin)

My setup is pretty much standard, so just a bit of
handholding should get me through if anyone is able to
spell it out for me.

Thanks in advance,
Jon

[Mailman-Users] Mails don't reach some subscribers

2006-02-06 Thread Xabier Guitián
How we can check that a message was sent to the entire list if some of the 
members didn't received that mail? Is the sending process controlled by the 
MTA or directly by mailman? Is there any log where i can check every mail 
sended by mailman like the mail.log from the MTA?
I'm using Postfix as my MTA.
Thanks.

What does /var/log/mail say? Looking at that log, did MM send the 
Mail to these users, or didn't it?

Did you check that your users are subscribed, don't receive digests, 
and didn't set mail delivery on hold?

 Go to the list admin Bounce processing page for the list and be sure
 bounce_processing is set to Yes. Then, depending the frequency of
 posts to your list and how agressive you want to be about removing
 bouncing members, set the other options according to their
 descriptions.

 Then all bounces will be logged in the 'bounce' log. and members will
 be automatically disabled and removed according to your settings.

   
Hi Mr. Mark Sapiro,

I discovered that mailman is not removing the user of the list when 
returns bounce, sees the example below:

Feb  6 13:33:26 myshost postfix/smtpd[28902]: 988FDC3D799: reject: RCPT

./list_members listname | grep -i username
username@domain.com.br

The user not exist in my system domain..

What it can be happening?
Tkanks a lot,

If you want a member to be removed on the first bounce, go to the
Bounce processing page for the list and set the following:

bounce_processing: Yes

There have been mailings through my mailman account that are not authorized

Mailman has two logs, 'smtp' and 'smtp-failure' which will tell you
(smtp) that the post was delivered to the MTA and how many recipients
there were, but not their addresses, and (smtp-failure) if there were
any errors in delivery to the MTA.

If you have automated bounce processing enabled for the list, Mailman's
'bounce' log will tell you which addresses bounced.

Configured as its suggestion.
But because the system does not send email for the members of the list

I'm not really familiar with Postfix, but see
http://www.list.org/mailman-install/postfix-virtual.html and the
other material in that section of the manual.


2 - What changes do I need to make to mailman?


In mm_cfg.py you need to set/add the following (see Defaults.py for
documentation)

MTA = Postfix
POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS
add_virtualhost('url_hostname', 'email_hostname')

If the Defaults.py settings

POSTFIX_ALIAS_CMD = '/usr/sbin/postalias'
POSTFIX_MAP_CMD = '/usr/sbin/postmap'

aren't correct, override them in mm_cfg.py


3 - Do I need to make any changes to httpd.conf or
other apache config files? (note that I can access the
mailman admin interface via domain1/mailman/admin and
also domain2/mailman/admin, but at present the list of
email lists only shows up via domain1/mailman/admin)


Perhaps you are OK as is with apache then. If you put the
add_virtualhost() in mm_cfg.py and run fix_url to set the domain2 list
to 'domain2', that list should 'move to' the domain2 listinfo and
admin overview pages.

Presumably someone is posting to the list by spoofing you as the sender
of the post (i.e., faking the message to meke it look as though it
comes from you).

Are you the list owner? If so, you can set your subscription to
moderated so posts 'from' you have to be approved. If not, you can ask
the list owner to do it.

You can unsubscribe the spoofed address and subscribe with a different
address or a 'variant' of the spoofed address.

You or someone with some expertise can examine the Received: and other
headers in these posts and possibly determine the IP address of
origin, but some of these may be spoofed as well, and it is usually
not possible to determine the actual sender in any case without
cooperation from the originating ISP which may not be obtainable
without court order.

[Mailman-Users] Members only umbrella lists

2006-02-06 Thread RobertHJ (sent by Nabble.com)

Is there a way to configure settings so that one sub-list will accept mails 
posted to the umbrella list by a member a different sub-list?

Want the whole thing to be members only to cut-out spam and also would ideally 
like to have sender's emal shown in the posts.

E.g.

Is there a way around this though the settings in the Administrative Interface?

 With that I can search across the logs

Not any Mailman-related tools, no.  You should check with the

No, I don't think so, other than making the umbrella list anonymous
which you don't want to do.

You can try subscribing [EMAIL PROTECTED] to the sub lists with
delivery disabled and password reminders off. This may work. Let us
know. (It depends in some ways on the settings of USE_ENVELOPE_SENDER
and SENDER_HEADERS in mm_cfg.py, but I *think* it should work with the
defaults.)

Bummer. There is a patch
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detailaid=1220144group_id=103atid=300103
that would allow you to put '@Sub-listA' in accept_these_nonmembers of
Sub-listB and vice versa. This would do what you want, but you'd have
to convince the host to install the patch.

This is on the list as a feature for Mailman 2.2.

[Mailman-Users] set mailman default for nonmember_rejection_notice

2006-02-06 Thread Christopher Adams
I am trying to set the default message (for new lists) for non-member 
posts that are rejected. In mm_cfg.py, I have tried:

NONMEMBER_REJECTION_NOTICE= Blah blah blah blah

That doesn't work.

I understand that Python can use single, double, or triple quotes. None

The problem is not in the syntax of your assignment, The problem is the
default nonmember_rejection_notice for new lists is the null string
(which in turn causes the default notice coded into
Mailman/Handlers/Moderate.py to be used) and there is no provision for
setting a different default in mm_cfg.py.

In general, the only things that can be meaningfully set in mm_cfg.py
are those things which are defined in Defaults.py.

If you are the list owner or moderator, you can approve the message,
however depending on the list's Content Filtering settings, the
attachment may be removed.

If you are the list owner, you can raise max_message_size from its
current value of 40 to anything you like.

If you are not the list owner, you need to communicate with her/him

The data/heldmsg-list_name-*.pck files are messages for list_name
that are waiting moderator approval. Go to the list's admindb page and
accept/reject/discard them as appropriate.

In which qfiles/ directory do you find messages. Other than messages
currently in process, there should only be messages in qfiles/shunt/
and maybe qfiles/retry/. If there are old messages in other queues,
not all your qrunners are running.

Messages in the retry queue are failed deliveries that will be
periodically retried until DELIVERY_RETRY_PERIOD (default 5 days)
elapses. if there are messages older than that, RetryRunner isn't
running.

Messages in the shunt queue were placed there because of some error
which will have been logged in the 'error' log. They can be
reprocessed with bin/unshunt, but if the underlying error hasn't been
addressed, they will just be shunted again.

Also bin/dumpdb and bin/show_qfiles are useful for looking at these
files.

So it actually does work, but you have a problem with delayed
deliveries. This is probably not a Mailman issue per se, but looking
into the qfiles/ entries may indicate a Mailman problem.

Otherwise, this may be a Mailman/MTA integration issue or it may be
strictly in the outgoing MTA or beyond.

Does your outgoing mail go through your ISP and if so, does the ISP
limit outgoing mail somehow? Note that this can be the case even if
you have your own outgoing MTA. Some ISPs intercept ALL port 25
connects and route them through their own server.

have no idea what our list administrator password is.  I've tried all kinds of 
things, none works.  How do I find out or change it?

We ran into a similar issue here.  It turned out that some virus-

(Where long was greater than about 70 characters or so.)

You can try isolating the problem by connecting (via telnet) to the

typing in messages with long header lines.

In our case:

Assuming you have shell access to the mailman userid, you want to look at
the mmsitepass program.

# /usr/local/mailman/bin/mmsitepass --help
Set the site password, prompting from the terminal.

The site password can be used in most if not all places that the list
administrator's password can be used, which in turn can be used in most
places
that a list users password can be used.

Usage: /usr/local/mailman/bin/mmsitepass [options] [password]

Options:

-c/--listcreator
Set the list creator password instead of the site password.  The
list
creator is authorized to create and remove lists, but does not have
the total power of the site administrator.

-h/--help
Print this help message and exit.

If password is not given on the command line, it will be prompted for.

If this is your own Mailman installation, use bin/mmsitepass to set a
new site password and then use the site password to access the list
admin interface and set new list passwords.

If this is an externally hosted Mailman, you'll need to get the host to
set new list passwords for you.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Virtual Servers

2006-02-06 Thread Jon Loose
Many thanks for your help, which has precipitated
progress.  I am now able to see the appropriate lists
when accessing the system via the appropriate domain. 
Thus www.domain1.org/mailman/admin leads to the
domain1 lists, and www.domain2.org/mailman/admin leads
to the domain2 lists.  All to the good.

However, I now find that sending a message to the list
on domain2 leads to copies being sent out to a local
user, but not to any users outside my network.  This
looks like an MTA issue, and so I'm sure I should have
fixed things slightly differently in postfix.  Further
comments below:

The question is, what do I need to do next in
postfix/mailman to make the two work together?

1 - Do I need to edit /etc/postfix/virtual?
 
 
 I'm not really familiar with Postfix, but see

http://www.list.org/mailman-install/postfix-virtual.html
and the
 other material in that section of the manual.

The trouble is, this is the documentation I don't
understand!  Can anyone help?  Specifically, having
set up domain2 as a virtual domain in postfix, what do
I need to do to allow mailman to use this?  I suspect
the /etc/postfix/virtual will need editing (do aliases
need moving from /etc/aliases for this?) but am not
sure.

 
 
2 - What changes do I need to make to mailman?
 
 
 In mm_cfg.py you need to set/add the following (see
Defaults.py for
 documentation)
 
 MTA = Postfix
 POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS
 add_virtualhost('url_hostname', 'email_hostname')
 
 If the Defaults.py settings
 
 POSTFIX_ALIAS_CMD = '/usr/sbin/postalias'
 POSTFIX_MAP_CMD = '/usr/sbin/postmap'
 
 aren't correct, override them in mm_cfg.py
 
Got it... FYI, the MTA=Postfix threw up an error,
but all went well without this line.

 
3 - Do I need to make any changes to httpd.conf or
other apache config files? (note that I can access
the
mailman admin interface via domain1/mailman/admin
and
also domain2/mailman/admin, but at present the list
of
email lists only shows up via domain1/mailman/admin)
 
 
 Perhaps you are OK as is with apache then. If you
put the
 add_virtualhost() in mm_cfg.py and run fix_url to
set the domain2 list
 to 'domain2', that list should 'move to' the domain2
listinfo and
 admin overview pages.

Thanks,

Jon

[Mailman-Users] majordomo mailinglist migration to mailman

I need to migrate mailing list from majordomo to mailman.  I didn't see

If I copy the mailing list from majordomo to mailman at the following

This has to do primarily with setting up Postfix so that incoming mail

all properly delivered to Mailman.

I don't think anything special needs to be done to accommodate outgoing

My fault. It needs to be

So that bin/genaliases and list creation and deletion can automatically
update the Mailman aliases and virtual maps files for Postfix.


Mailman creates/updates the data/aliases and data/virtual-mailman files
and the postalias and postmap commands update the corresponding .db
files.

The aliases and virtual-mailman files are referenced in the Postfix
configuration in alias_maps and virtual_alias_maps as shown in the

There is an old perl script, majordomo2mailman.pl, in the contrib
directory in the Mailman distribution that may or may not be helpful.


If I copy the mailing list from majordomo to mailman at the following 
location:
/usr/local/mailman/archives/private/


You need somehow to export the majordomo archive as a mbox format file
(a flat file with raw messages separated by lines that begin From 
with email address and date), and then use Mailman's bin/arch tool to
build the archive from the mbox.

 Which is 
 what led into the below question.
 
 
 So it actually does work, but you have a problem with delayed
 deliveries. This is probably not a Mailman issue per se, but looking
 into the qfiles/ entries may indicate a Mailman problem.
 
 Otherwise, this may be a Mailman/MTA integration issue or it may be
 strictly in the outgoing MTA or beyond.
 
 Does your outgoing mail go through your ISP and if so, does the ISP
 limit outgoing mail somehow? Note that this can be the case even if
 you have your own outgoing MTA. Some ISPs intercept ALL port 25
 connects and route them through their own server.
 

Thank you Mark... I have full control of the MTA and I am using PostFix.

I should tell you that ...

1) I do not have bounce processing enabled within Mailman

2) The mailing lists have been migrated from older versions mailman
and have been cleaned up.

3) When typing, mailq, on the server, it does not list the corresponding
held messages. These are message Mailman has in its qfiles that PostFix
does not know about.

In which qfiles? If it is qfiles/retry/*, then the message has been
queued for retry because the original MTA delivery attempt resulted in
a transient error. The reason is logged in Mailman's smtp-failure log.

If it is some other queue, that that queue's runner is not doing its
job. Have you set QRUNNER_SLEEP_TIME in mm_cfg.py to some large value?

The command 'mailq' usually lists -sendmail-'s queue. Postfix uses the

 /usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin/listinfo? The normal way this is done is
 with

I set in Vhosts_ispconfig.conf (where the virutual hosts are created)
ScriptAlias /mailman/ /var/www/web1/cgi-bin/

http://domain.tld/cgi-bin/mailman/create

then I get:

Please inform the webmaster for this site of this problem. Printing of 
traceback and other system information has been explicitly inhibited, but the

As I said before, I think this is strictly Postfix, not Mailman or
Mailman-Postfix integration. I think Postfix is not relaying mail from
domain2 to the outside world. I don't know enough Postfix to suggest
what might need to be done to correct this.

Since you haven't had MTA = 'Postfix', you've been using the default
MTA = 'Manual' which just tells you what the aliases are and asks you
to manually install them.

If you now run bin/genaliases, it should create the data/aliases and
data/virtual-mailman files containing data for all your lists, and run
the postalias and postmap commands to create the .db files.

Then you can update your Postfix config to use these files and not have
to do the aliases manually in the future.

 The command 'mailq' usually lists -sendmail-'s queue. Postfix uses
 the postqueue command, and AFAIK mailman doesn't have a command at
 all.

Postfix is very sendmail compatible and it does install a mailq
command - at least on the installations I have done over the years.

Mailman has bin/show_qfiles to 'Show the contents of one or more
Mailman queue files.'

So let's see if I get the situation. A nonmember send a post to a list.
A reject message is generated and is queued within Mailman and takes
several hours to be delivered, meanwhile it sits in some queue in
mailman. Is that correct?

In which queue do you find it?

Are there any relevant messages in any of Mailman's logs, particularly
'locks', 'qrunner', 'error' and 'smtp-failure'?

 I have not tried the above but it is asking for confirmation because the 
 posts 
 are from legitimate automatic engines that send email. The list does not 
 know 
 how to distinguish between SPAM and a legitimate automatic post.

 Any ideas on resolving this dilemma?
 
 
 Posts which are held because of being from a non-member are only held
 based on the calculated 'sender' of the message which in turn is based
 on only a few message headers which all looked OK in your sample
 message.
 
 I can understand your reluctance to patch the code, but at least look
 in the 'vette' log and see what the entry there reports as the sender
 of the held post.
 

In the vette log, I am seeing these messages from the automatic posts ...

So the post is held because the list posting address is not in a To: or
Cc: header of the post, not because [EMAIL PROTECTED] is not a
member. If you want these posts to go to the list without being held
for moderator approval, here are your choices.

1)Arrange for the automated sender to put the list posting address in a
To: or Cc: header in the message, or

2)go to the list's Privacy options...-Recipient filters page and
either set require_explicit_destination to No or add the actual To:

the time stamp of one entry and that of the next roughly equal to the
processing time in the first entry? And, do these times seem long.

nothing in the mailq at all for postfix. no backlog at all. Hardly anything is 
running this time of night. The mail and list server are two different servers.

It just flushed like you crazy!! I changed my SMTP port in Mailman from the

I hope that did it ...
