Hello

I was away for some time (hey, even I have vacation somedays ;)) and have now 
come back.

If you have forgotten what the problem is:

e-mail conformation isn't working for a list (though for others it does). 

After evaluating the problem again it seems that my first impression was a bit 
erroneous (read I didn't debug efficiently enough):

It seems that confirming via web page works, but only if one hasn't tried to do 
it by mail. It seems that the mail removes the confirmation from the pending 
confirmations, but doesn't do the trick. And after that the web page 
confirmation doesn't really have anything to confirm against.

The error log gives the following information:

[Mailman-Users] sendmail and mm-handler woes

2006-02-09 Thread Kevin McNamee
Hi,

 

I am using Solaris 10 and installing mailman 2.1.7

I have followed the mailman instruction and mm-handler.readme and I can
administer everything via web and receive confirmation emails, except I get
User unknown when I try send to my testlist at mailman.symsoft.se. From
reading the archives it suggests that sendmail is not recognising mm-handler
as the recipient of mail to the mailman.symsoft.se domain.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Virtual Servers

2006-02-09 Thread Jon Loose
Thanks for the help to date... still struggling with
the virtual domains configuration with
postfix/mailman, however.

I did what was suggested below...

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.

yet, mailman created data/aliases, but not
data/virtual-mailman.  I made a vain attempt with
touch virtual-mailman, and then genalias.  This
produced a virtual-mailman.db, but throws up errors in
the mail log because it is empty.

Also, I assume I create a list on the virtual domain
using newlist [EMAIL PROTECTED] ?

Any futher thoughts?

Thanks,

Jon

Re: [Mailman-Users] Privacy Options Sender Filters non-memberfilters

2006-02-09 Thread Charles Marcus
 Is it possible to reference a one-address-per-line text file for this 
 filter?

 Not without modifying the source code.
 
 One way you could accomplish this is to get the patch at
 http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detailaid=1220144group_id=103atid=300103.
 Then you could either modify the patch to get its whitelist from a
 file instead of another list, or you could create a separate list
 which is essentially turned off except that its membership could be
 the whitelist for the other lists.

Looks like this will work - thanks! But... I prefer to not apply custom 
patches if at all possible - is support for this planned for future 
releases? Seems like 'a good thing' to have, no?

Thanks again for the pointer...

[Mailman-Users] Confirm setting not holding

2006-02-09 Thread Bob Bergey
Under Privacy Options/Subscription Rules (Mailman 2.1.4) are the 
settings for either Confirm, Approve, or Confirm and Approve. On half 
a dozen of my lists, even though they're set for Confirm, the setting 
won't hold -- it keeps changing to Confirm and Approve. Anyone have 
any idea why?

In order for virtual-mailman to be created/updated, you must have a
list of virtual domains in mm_cfg.py like:

POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ['domain2', 'domain3']

(see http://www.list.org/mailman-install/postfix-virtual.html for
what actually goes in this list - it could be just one domain or two
as above or more), AND you must have one or more Mailman lists with
host_name equal to one of the domains in
POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS. Apparently you don't have both of these
conditions.


Also, I assume I create a list on the virtual domain
using newlist [EMAIL PROTECTED] ?


Yes, but contrary to intuition, domain2 in this case must be the URL
host of the list, not the email host unless they are the same.

There are also options in later versions of newlist to specify this
less counter-intuitively. See 'bin/newlist --help'

Just some more info to this - when looking at the news.notice file for

however, that if there is new stuff in the newsgroups, it never gets sent

Anyone know how I can do some more debugging on this?

Check Mailman's error and fromusenet logs. If that doesn't show
anything, 'cp cron/gate_news cron/my_gate_news' and add some debugging
prints to my_gate_news and run it manually.

And see what's in the shunted message. Unless you have a large number
of these, I don't know what happened to cause this.

What the trace shows is the SMTP delivery handler successfully
delivered the message to the outgoing MTA and was trying to log that
fact in the 'smtp' log, but for some reason logging encountered an
exception (I think) and tried to write that to stderr which wasn't
available, so the error logged here is the inability to write to
stderr.

Also, the actual message in this case that was shunted, should have
been successfully delivered anyway, so this seems to have nothing to
do with the confirmation problem.

Re: [Mailman-Users] why is plain text option (removes MIME/HTML) only available

2006-02-09 Thread Tom Grundy
Thanks for the replies - a better yet subjsect may have been ' how do you 
apply content filtering on a per-user basis'.  Basically we want to allow 
crusty old non-MIME or non-HTML browsers and clients to still view our nice 
fancy html emails instead of  the mime and html source code.
Sounds like two separate lists (a mime list and a plain-text list) is 
probably the way to go.

[Mailman-Users] error log - Failed before cPickle:

Hi,

I noticed the following messages in mailman error log every time when a
list is accessed, for example:

/usr/local/mailman/lists/email-team/config.pck.tmp.mailman.Stanford.EDU.13813

It doesn't seem to be harmful, because all operations seem normal.
The permission for the list is:

 drwxrwsr-x  2 mailman mailman 4096 Feb  9 09:49 email-team/

and under email-team:

What does the error mean? Should I worry?

[Mailman-Users] Redirect all -bounce emails

2006-02-09 Thread Tom Kavanaugh
Hello Folks,

I recently setup a mailman server with ver 2.1.6, and I am liking it so far.

Since I am not with the IT Team of my organization,  I am working around
some mailman problems and this is where I need some ideas.

I setup a few mail lists (including default mailman list) in 
name.comdomain, and worked with my IT folks to redirect maillist@
name.com to my mail server mailist@mine.name.com
I do get a few maillist-name[EMAIL PROTECTED] emails, and I would like to
re-direct all these emails to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or [EMAIL PROTECTED])
Does someone have ideas how to accomplish this?

I do not administer the company's mail servers.
Folks here are not open to the list.name.com domain idea, for legacy
reasons.
I have a bunch of /etc/aliases entries for each of my mail lists on
mine.name.com server.
Is there a way I can use these alaises to re-firect maillist-bounce@
name.com to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Any help / ideas are appreciated.

Thanks!
Tom

[Mailman-Users] Problems sending to list

2006-02-09 Thread Patrick Bogen
I have a relatively small list (13 recipients, several of which are mm
lists on the same box, but they work fine). I'm using sendmail, and
/etc/aliases is configured to pass the email to procmail with a
special file which matches the ^TO_ metatarget to dispatch the emails
to the appropriate mailman command (mailman post list) after running
some spam filtering and whitelisting stuff on them.

Any time a message is sent to this list (the 'announce' list), mailman
appears to receive it, because it generates 3 messages (ceil(13/5)=3;
they are all at the same site). However, the messages are addressed to
announce instead of being addressed to the recipients. Mailman
correctly ignores the three duplicates. The problem here is that since
the messages are addressed to announce instead of the correct users...
nobody receives messages sent to the list.

This happens even when /etc/aliases is changed to send directly to
mailman again instead of using procmail. The only change since the
last time this was working is a user was removed from the list (using
the remove_members command).

Any advice on where to start looking for the problem would be greatly
appreciated.

  BTW, I'm not sure why you have the 'cgi-bin/' in the above URL,
  Normally, if the ScriptAlias says '/mailman/' the URL uould just be
  http://domain.tld/mailman/create
 
 When I browse this then I get file not found
 dont know what to do here!

 In a prior post you said:
 I set in Vhosts_ispconfig.conf (where the virutual hosts are created)
  ScriptAlias /mailman/ /var/www/web1/cgi-bin/

 If that directive actually applies to domain.tld, then (assuming that
 /var/www/web1/cgi-bin/ is the directory that contains Mailman's
 wrappers) the URL http://domain.tld/mailman/create should cause
 Apache to execute the create wrapper.
Debian installs mailman to /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman. I linked it 
to /var/www/web1/cgi-bin/ 
ScriptAlias is set to 
ScripAlias /mailman/ /var/www/web1/cgi-bin/

this gives the aboves errors


 Now it is clear that you do get to Mailman when you go to
 http://domain.tld/cgi-bin/mailman/create so there is likely some
 other Alias or ScriptAlias that handles that URL.

 What is in Apache's error_log for the attempt to get
 http://domain.tld/mailman/create
thats it what is created in apache2 error.log  when I try to access the URL:

[Fri Feb 10 00:13:00 2006] [notice] Apache/2.0.54 (Debian GNU/Linux)

mod_perl/1.999.21 Perl/v5.8.4 configured -- resuming normal operations



 In any case, this is not the cause of the we hit a bug you get when
 you go to http://domain.tld/cgi-bin/mailman/create. That's a Mailman
 message and we need Mailman's error log for that.

I had a look in /var/log/mailman/error - empty
in /var/log/mailman/qrunner:

but this is not the real log file, or?

I looked also multiple times through the files you meant but was not able to 
find something what is discribing a path to a log file! So, where is it?

What are you doing about the other list addresses like
announce-bounces, announce-owner, etc. Are you piping them to 'mailman
bounces list', 'mailman owner list', etc.

Also, have you checked to see if the post is waiting moderator approval?

[Mailman-Users] Unknown password on new list...

2006-02-09 Thread Daevid Vincent
I just set up a new list, and must have fat fingered the password. 
How can I change it since I cannot log into the GUI?

I see 'mmsitepass', but it changes a master password for all lists. I don't
want that. I only want to change for ONE specific list.

Also, this seems kind of short-sighted that it takes only one password on
the command line and hides the typing. Why doesn't mailman ask for a
confirmation of the password, and keep re-prompting for a new one if they do
not match?

Re: [Mailman-Users] Unknown password on new list...

2006-02-09 Thread Daevid Vincent
Just to clarify, I'm not completely retarded. Yes, an email is sent, however
it says:

Your mailing list password is:

 

cand^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hvegas 

And obviously, when I try to type that into the GUI, it fails.

I've also tried the following combinations with no luck:

cand
candvegas
vegas

You can use the master site password to log in the admin page and change 
the list password.  If you can not use GUI for any other reason, then 
use bin/withlist to change the password with a little trick like this:

% bin/withlist test
Loading list test (unlocked)
The variable `m' is the mm-test MailList instance
  import sha
  p = 'newpass'
  cp = sha.new(p).hexdigest()
  m.Lock()
  m.password = cp
  m.Save()
  m.Unlock()
 
Finalizing
%
 
 I see 'mmsitepass', but it changes a master password for all lists. I don't
 want that. I only want to change for ONE specific list.
 
 Also, this seems kind of short-sighted that it takes only one password on
 the command line and hides the typing. Why doesn't mailman ask for a

Re: [Mailman-Users] Problems sending to list

2006-02-09 Thread Patrick Bogen
The aliases for the other addresses for announce are actually disabled
(it worked that way before)- it's been thus since I've been handling
this server (about a year and a half). If you think this might have
something to do with the problem, I can re-enable them...

Since this list exists primarily just to propagate messages to
sub-lists, there's no membership or moderator issues to worry about.
Non-member messages are allowed (and I have checked; the messages are
not waiting for approval).
