My guess would be that your hosting company is somehow improperly
routing internal mail. This is almost certainly not a Mailman issue
and, furthermore, almost certainly not something you can fix.

You might want to double-check the configuration that you're using to
send email (make sure you have the proper SMTP server, etc.) Can your
domain name email accounts send mail to your personal account
correctly?

[Mailman-Users] Help

[Mark.A.Lombardo]

Please I am at my wits end here. My hosting company are being very
unsupportive. I have a domain olney-scout-group.org.uk, which is running the
Mailman software. 

 

The situation is as follows, if I post from my domain name  email accounts,
it never appears, but if I post from personal account (not related) to the
site, then it come through fine.

 

Please I need to resolve this issue, as quickly as possible.

[Mailman-Users] config_list

[Carconni]

Hi,


Were migrating from dmail to mailman. 

I have a couple of quick questions - if I copy my /private/var/mailman 
directory to another location will I be able to use it to restore my listserv 
with it if something goes wrong with it?

I have over 300 lists and I need to modify 'generic_nonmember_action': 1, to 
'generic_nonmember_action': 0,.  I understand that config_list should be able 
to do that.  Will it change all the lists automatically?  What if I wanted to 
change only a group of lists?  Can I put 'generic_nonmember_action': 0, in a 
file and lets call that file (fix4), do I run ./config_list -i fix4?  What is 
the exact syntax. I've looked at mailman commands and I've also run 
./config_list -h and there just isn't enough information there.

Does config_list act on the *.pck files in /private/var/mailman/lists/listname 
directory?

Also can I set "List of non-member addresses whose postings should be 
automatically accepted. " under Privacy to *.emailaddress.com to accept all 
address from one client?


Thanks for any help you can provide with this.

[Mailman-Users] How to edit confirmation message?

[Robotech_Master]

The hosting company for which I work uses Mailman on one of its
servers, and one of our clients wants to know how to edit the
confirmation message that is sent out to subscribers. I notice this is
apparently possible since the confirmation I got for signing up to
this mailing list had a different subject line than the default, but
the option did not appear to be available from the list manager
interface. Is it a matter of hand-editing some text file?

He would also like to know how to change the *subject line* of the
"welcome to this mailing list" post, the *body* of which can be edited
from the list manager menu but apparently not the subject line.

I searched what documentation on Mailman that I could find, but could
not find the answer. Any advice would be appreciated.

Size is not your problem, at least not so far as the base Mailman 
code is concerned.  See FAQ 1.15 at 
 
for more details on that.

Now, your hosting provider may have made some changes to the code 
that they're running, or they may be running a version of Mailman 
from someone else (e.g., cPanel) which may have been modified, and 
those modifications may prevent you from running a larger list.

In that case, you need to talk to your hosting provider, or see 
about getting a new hosting provider.


When troubleshooting Mailman problems, it's a good idea to start 
with the stuff at FAQ 3.14 (see 
) 
and eliminate all those issues before proceeding to anything else.

I would also encourage you to use the search function for the FAQ 
Wizard via , and to at 
least take a look at the full index of all FAQ entries at 
.

[Mailman-Users] Mailing List Size

[Bruce Jenner]

My host has mailman installed (2.1.6). I set up a list and mass subscribed
50 users, and everything was working fine.

When the subscriber list reached about 100, mail began to not be sent. Even
the bounce and admin messages weren't coming through even though I was
subscribed.

I have minimal access to the mailing list. Just what I can access through
the admin interface. I do not have access to the logs or running processes.
Basically I do not have shell access to the server.

Is there anything I can do get it to work with a large user list? We now
have 200 members and growing and we need a list of some sort just to keep up
with what's going on.

[Mailman-Users] A few question on htdig integration

[Karl Zander]

  
I have the htdig patches applied and the search works for 
the most part.  There are two (hopefully) small problems 
that I haven't been able to track down.

Using Mailman 2.1.7

1.  I only seem able to display 100 search results.  If a 
search finds 1022 results, only 100 can actually be looked 
at.   The icons for the next group of 10 pages allow me to 
select 1-10, 11-20, 21-30...91-100.  But can't get past 
100.  Is there a setting somewhere that controls that?

2.  Those Pages icons at the bottom of the search results 
to display the next group of 10 are broken.  Clicking on 
them will advance, but the icon does not display.  The 
html source seems to reference

This is an error that occurs during SMTP delivery from Mailman to the
outgoing MTA. Apparently the MTA dropped the connection.

Both this and the "slowness" you reported earlier can be caused by
doing too much checking in the MTA during the incoming SMTP session.

Visit the FAQ wizard at http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py and
search for performance. Look particularly at 4.11 and for exim at 6.2.

[Mailman-Users] Connection Reset by ...

Ok got the one thing under control... now in the error logs we see this 
every once in awhile;

Apr 18 12:33:13 2006 (7284) delivery to [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed with code -1:

Apr 18 12:33:44 2006 (7284) Low level smtp error: (104, 'Connection reset by

What we are curious to what is the connection reset by peer, technically these 
are supposed to be sent to our mailproxy then sent out to the respective emails.

I had upgraded from the original using up2date. I guess I need

Re: [Mailman-Users] Issues with SMTPdirect

[Stephen]

Mark;

Thanks ever so much you pointed me to a way to debug, unfortunately we 
rolled out the fix yesterday and I was unable to replicate the issue. It did 
however appear that the user mailman lacked access to the /etc/hosts file. 
There is a side question one of the System Administrators was curious as to 
why when exim would be restarted it force mailman to function...albeit 
very slowly... is it caching or something alike?
