Re: [Mailman-Users] Reconfirming subscriptions
I have a question, i hope you can help? This sort of question should be posted to Mailman-Users@python.org, not sent directly to me. I have a list of around 4000 addresses and some are complaing to spamcop and not just unsubscribing themselves. I do not spam, i have gone through our GoldMine DB here at work and added all the email addresses to a mailing list. These are clients we deal with all the time. I would liket to send out a mail asking all the existing clients to reconfirm their subscription, is this possible? As far as I know, this is not directly possible within existing mailman. The closest you can come is to use the Mass Removal interface (or bin/remove_members) to remove all the members and then use the Mass Subscription interface to *invite* them to rejoin. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED] The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

Second, I don't know anything about Namazu, so the following may be nonsense. That said, it seems to me that the above messages are normal occurrences and are not indicicative of a problem. It appears that Namazu is looking in the /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/documentumdevelopers/ directory for messages to index. Presumably it is finding and indexing all the -m/nn.html files which are the actual archived messages, and it is telling you that the 'table of contents' and various monthly index files and the pipermail.pck file that it also sees are not messages which is correct. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED] The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

I created these messages with a script that saved its output to a file, then used: mailx -s subject [EMAIL PROTECTED] filename.html If you build the message yourself, as opposed to using a MIME-aware MUA, then yes -- you will also need to build the necessary MIME headers and internal infrastructure. However, this can be a complex subject, and I would recommend that you at least look into command-line utilities that can help make this process easier. I can't think of the names of the toolkits off the top of my head, but you should be able to find them pretty easily with Google. But do keep in mind that even command-line MUAs like mailx won't let you control your own headers. If you want to control the headers, you will need to feed your formatted message directly to sendmail or some other comparable message submission agent. When I've done that in the past, it's looked something like: sendmail -t [EMAIL PROTECTED] /path/to/message If only there is a command line mailer that will allow me to add the mime type header to the email, then that would allow the message to display correctly in both my email client, and the list archives. I'd bet that mutt could do that, since it is the MUA that was originally written by the guy who also wrote the PGP/MIME RFC, so he clearly knows both his crypto/PGP stuff and his MIME stuff. Note that mutt does give you some control over what goes in the headers, but mostly that's for putting in your own X- headers and not doing critical things like mucking about with the MIME structure of the message. thanks, I see it adds proper headers this way, but I still don't see a way to control what mime type to use. I used the sendmail command with an html file and it still came through as ascii. I've found that one workaround is to use mutt -a to include the file as an attachment, but i'm suprised there's no easy way to do this. Thanks everyone for your help, I think the lesson is to find something other than uuencode when sending to mailman so it doesnt spoil the list archives. -- 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
Re: [Mailman-Users] Redirect all -bounce emails
Hello folks,
I am currently re-directing all the lists -admin -bounce -owner -confirm
-join -leave -owner -request -subscribe -unsubsribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Currently, I administer all the mail lists and so this works well.
Going forward, I would like to make the list ownership of each list to the
relevant project manager. So, the -admin, -bounce, etc of every list will
have to go to a different email.
My Mailman/Handlers/SMTPDirect.py looks like below. This was done from my
previous posting in this discussion forum.
# Envelope sender (bounces) is always the site list.
envsender = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
Is it possible for :
lista -admin -bounce -owner -confirm etc to go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
listb -admin -bounce -owner -confirm etc to go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
listc -admin -bounce -owner -confirm etc to go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Thanks
Tom

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.

There are several things going on here. A message (most likely spam) is being posted to your list and accepted for delivery. This message has it's Subject: header encoded in the 'gb2312' (chinese) character set. Mailman is trying to decode the Subject: so it can add the subject_prefix and your Mailman/Python installation does not support/recognize the 'gb2312' character set. The above error occurs and the message is moved to Mailman's shunt queue where it will stay untouched until you manually remove it or queue it for reprocessing using bin/unshunt. You can use bin/show_qfiles or bin/dumpdb to look at the entries in qfiles/shunt and then just remove those you don't want. You can also adjust your list settings to be not so generous in what you accept. There is something wrong with your Mailman installation as it should recognize 'gb2312'. This specific error should not stop Mailman. It just shunts the message and that should be the end of it. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED] The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

[Mailman-Users] Customization for one-way announcement list
Hi, We have Mailman 2.1.5 and are trying to set up and customize Mailman for a one-way announcement list for a newsletter. We have read the various suggestions in the Mailman FAQ and customize the settings, various txt file for Email, and the 3 public html pages. We are encountering some parts where there is no suggestions in the FAQs. In particular, they are the following: 1. The confirmation html page when someone click on the subscription confirmation link from within the Email. 2. The login html page to allow the user to unsubscribe and the options html page (somelists.domain.com/mailman/options/somelist) Where can we get to these pages (listed above) to customize?

I moved the installation by tarring up and copying archives/, data/, and lists/. I'm getting pending notification messages every day, but there are no messages to approve in the administration web stuff. There is more than one Mailman installation on the same or on different servers. The one sending you the notices is not the one whose admindb interface you are visiting. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED] The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Customization for one-way announcement list
Jimmy wrote: Hi, We have Mailman 2.1.5 and are trying to set up and customize Mailman for a one-way announcement list for a newsletter. We have read the various suggestions in the Mailman FAQ and customize the settings, various txt file for Email, and the 3 public html pages. We are encountering some parts where there is no suggestions in the FAQs. In particular, they are the following: 1. The confirmation html page when someone click on the subscription confirmation link from within the Email. Built on the fly by Mailman/Cgi/confirm.py. 2. The login html page to allow the user to unsubscribe Built on the fly by Mailman/Cgi/options.py and the options html page (somelists.domain.com/mailman/options/somelist) Built from the options.html template (see http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showfile=faq04.048.htp). Where can we get to these pages (listed above) to customize? Or Are they generated by Mailman on the fly? If so, is it hard to hack the code, which module, and is it advisable? Hacking the code is not difficult if you are reasonably competent with Python. The advisability of patching Mailman depends on the resources you have for maintaining and porting forward the patches to new releases. Does the new Mailman 2.1.9 provide more customization otpions? No. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED] The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.
