Re: [Mailman-Users] Redirect all -bounce emails
Hi Mark, Thanks for your response and suggestions. I modified the Mailman/Handlers/SMTPDirect.py per you suggestions. The unix_sysadmin-bounce emails now get redirected to [EMAIL PROTECTED] That is the good part. But what is happening now is that the mailman server keeps spitting out these emails to the mailman mail list. Every few minutes I am bomarded with these emails from the mailman mail list. The relevant contents are: Reporting-MTA: dns; utc80.name.com Received-From-MTA: DNS; localhost Arrival-Date: Thu, 23 Feb 2006 16:13:39 -0800 (PST) Final-Recipient: RFC822; [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Action: failed Status: 5.1.1 Remote-MTA: DNS; mailhost.name.com Diagnostic-Code: SMTP; 550 5.1.1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]... User unknown Last-Attempt-Date: Thu, 23 Feb 2006 16:13:39 -0800 (PST) Seems that the mailman server (utc80) is re-trying to send to [EMAIL PROTECTED], although it knows that this is an unknown user. Could you tell me how to go about fixing this? Thanks Tom On 2/12/06, Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Tom Kavanaugh wrote: If you're thinking that you can get around the issue by having all bounces from any list be returned to the 'mailman' list posting address, you could do this in the source code, but not by using aliases on mine.name.com. Yes, this is precisely what I want to accomplish. Could you point me to some place, or the portion of the code that needs to be tinkered with. I am not a perl/python person, so this is going to be a huge learning curve for me. There are two obvious ways that jump to mind. The first, which will address the bounce issue for all mail, is the following code at the beginning of the process() function in Mailman/Handlers/SMTPDirect.py # Calculate the non-VERP envelope sender. envsender = msgdata.get('envsender') if envsender is None: if mlist: envsender = mlist.GetBouncesEmail() else: envsender = Utils.get_site_email(extra='bounces') which could simply be replaced by something like # Envelope sender (bounces) is always the site list. envsender = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Don't worry about VERP because it is calculated from envsender. Another way to do it would be to modify the getListAddress() method definition in Mailman/MailList.py to just return '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' when extra is not None and similarly modify get_site_email() in Mailman/Utils.py to ignore the extra argument. Then it might be possible to do it in your outgoing MTA, not with aliases, but with some kind of rewrite of the envelope sender on outgoing mail if your MTA supports such a thing. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED] The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

I don't know how you can create a list any way except by copying som other list's config.pck if you have an invalid value for DEFAULT_SERVER_LANGUAGE. If nothing else, maybe you need to put DEFAULT_SERVER_LANGUAGE = 'en' in mm_cfg.py. However, now I can't get it to interact with apache. I'm pretty sure that it's rolling otherwise.

[Mailman-Users] Mailman attempts to inline attachments of MIME type text/plain
Is there a way to allow attachments of text/plain without them being added inline in the message post? Would it be possible to have the mailman archive split out the attachment and, for each message, provide a separate link to download the attachment as a separate file? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Mailman-attempts-to-inline-attachments-of-MIME-type-text-plain-t1176375.html#a3093309 Sent from the Mailman - Users forum at Nabble.com. -- 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

On Non-Digest options, set scrub_nondigest to No. In addition, for digests, the member needs to receive MIME digests rather than plain. Would it be possible to have the mailman archive split out the attachment and, for each message, provide a separate link to download the attachment as a separate file? If the attachment doesn't specify a charset in the Content-Type: header, it will be scrubbed rather than 'flattened', which is what you want. Getting your MUA to 'attach' it that way may be a problem though. I don't think there's a configuration setting to do it in all cases. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED] The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Redirect all -bounce emails
Tom Kavanaugh wrote: I modified the Mailman/Handlers/SMTPDirect.py per you suggestions. The unix_sysadmin-bounce emails now get redirected to [EMAIL PROTECTED] That is the good part. But what is happening now is that the mailman server keeps spitting out these emails to the mailman mail list. Every few minutes I am bomarded with these emails from the mailman mail list.

User =09unknown Last-Attempt-Date: Thu, 23 Feb 2006 16:13:39 -0800 (PST) Seems that the mailman server (utc80) is re-trying to send to [EMAIL PROTECTED], although it knows that this is an unknown user. Mailman doesn't know anything about what addresses are or are not deliverable, and since you have effectively disabled automatic bounce processing, it can never find out. My best guess here is that [EMAIL PROTECTED] is a member of the [EMAIL PROTECTED] list. If that's not it, I don't know what is. Does that notice contain a copy of the original message? if so, what is it? Or does it keep growing as the same bounce keeps rebouncing? This is an interesting issue. Every message from the [EMAIL PROTECTED] list had better be deliverable or you will get a bounce loop. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED] The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Goodmail spells doom for mailing lists?
I'm not quite sure what you've just written here. What is AOL blocking? Sally Scheer - Original Message - From: Dave Crocker [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: mailman-users@python.org Sent: Thursday, February 23, 2006 7:56 PM Subject: Re: [Mailman-Users] Goodmail spells doom for mailing lists? Has anyone talked about the changes planned by AOL, Yahoo! etc. to require certification via Goodmail or just be blocked? It's been beaten to death -- at this point I can't recall if here or on other lists. Essentially it means nothing. AOL backpedaled the next day saying it wasn't a press release, they aren't requiring anything, blah blah blah. Having looked over the earlier articles I could find in the archive, and given how sensitive mailing list operation is to various mail authentication techniques -- e.g., SPF really does break it -- and given that AOL did not quite say that they are not requiring anything, I thought it worth reciting the current policy, as both yahoo and aol are stating quite explicitly: Their use of Goodmail is for transaction messages, like purchase confirmations and is only an adjunct to both service providers' existing mechanisms. For example, AOL with be continuing both of its existing white-list services. From what I can tell, the Goodmail technology does not work through a mailing list. From what I can tell, limited its application to transaction mail will keep this from being a problem. -- Dave Crocker Brandenburg InternetWorking http://bbiw.net -- 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/winerat%40villagecorner.com Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showamp;file=faq01.027.htp -- No virus found in this incoming message.

[Mailman-Users] Mailman won't send messages?
I've noticed that, on a new install of Mailman, list traffic is not being sent out - it seems that everything is just routing to nowhere in particular.
