[Mailman-Users] How can i make a list public so people who are not subcribed can send a message?
hi, i need the following scenario: someone should be able to send to the list while he is not subscribed to the list. This seems to works, but the list admin must approve this. Is it possible WITHOUT approval? thank you yavuz -- 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
[Mailman-Users] my second problem: in the emails is my local hostname !?!?
hi,
here is my second and i hope my last problem:
i get subscription mails which are like this one:
To post to this list, send your email to:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
General information about the mailing list is at:
http://xlistsrv.site/mailman/listinfo/test
If you ever want to unsubscribe or change your options (eg, switch to
or from digest mode, change your password, etc.), visit your
subscription page at:
You see the response address is my internet domainname, this is correct. But
the mailinglist admin site is my local hostname.
This is my mm_cfg file:
IMAGES_LOGOS = '/icons/'
DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'lists.interactive-ip.eu'
DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'lists.interactive-ip.eu'
MTA='Postfix'
POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ['lists.interactive-ip.eu']
add_virtualhost('lists.interactive-ip.eu', 'lists.interactive-ip.eu')
i think it seems to be correct, but something must be wrong. What could it
be? Can you help. Thank you
yavuz

Re: [Mailman-Users] my second problem: in the emails is my local hostname !?!?
Greetings -
I fell into this problem too. If memory serves it is because the
DEFAULT_URL_HOST is used at *list creation* time to populate an entry
its settings files. Changing the DEFAULT_URL_HOST later only affects
lists you create subsequently.
You need to run a script to fix up the URLs in the lists you have
already created:
bin/withlist -l -r fix_url listname
To see the help text for the above run it directly, without the
withlist:
bin/fix_url.py
I think there was a second, related Gotcha that caught me too... If
your existing lists have archives then the pages already generated
will have the wrong web server URL too. (Check some of the links
down at the bottom of their pages.) If that's the case for you then
you need to wipe and rebuild the HTML pages for each list's archives
from its mbox file:
bin/arch --wipe listname
I'd suggest trying each of the above on an unimportant or test list
first to make sure I've got things right!
Cheers,
Mike B-)

Well, as I said in my message... You can use regular expressions here if you wish. :-) If you click the (Details for accept_these_nonmembers) next to the text box you'll see a little additional help, which says: Postings from any of these non-members will be automatically accepted with no further moderation applied. Add member addresses one per line; start the line with a ^ character to designate a regular expression match. Thus rather than using the limited glob-style pattern matching such as [EMAIL PROTECTED] you instead use full regular expression pattern matching such as [EMAIL PROTECTED] If the local part of the sender addresses (the bit to the left of the @) follows a set pattern for all the customers who can send to the list then it might be possible to model that too. For example, if the local part for each customer was of the form initals.surname then you might like to try something like: [EMAIL PROTECTED] and thus prevent postings from [EMAIL PROTECTED] (because joe doesn't match this format). You will need to read up on the syntax used for these regular expressions. For example . means any one character, whereas \. means the single character which really is a '.'

Standard Mailman supports multiple virtual hosts from a single instance
with the restriction that all list names must be unique across all
hosts. This restriction is planned to be removed for Mailman 2.2 and
there are various patches available for Mailman 2.1 which may or may
not work. See
http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showfile=faq04.047.htp.
If you can live with the unique list name restriction, the Mailman part
of virtual hosting is simple. In mm_cfg.py, just put add_virtualhost()
directives for the additional host(s), e.g.
add_virtualhost('www2.example.com', 'lists2.example.com')
Then web created lists will be created with the proper web and mail
host names based on the host name of the URL that accessed the create
page. bin/newlist has options for specifying domains other than
DEFAULT_URL_HOST and DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST.
Lists will only be shown on the overview page for the accessing host
unless you set VIRTUAL_HOST_OVERVIEW = Off.
Of course, you have to set up the virtual domains in the web server and
in the incoming MTA so that the web server invokes the mailman CGIs
for Mailman URLs for all the hosts and the MTA properly delivers list
mail for any host to Mailman. These latter things are specific to your
web server, MTA and virtual hosting setup.

mail for any host to Mailman. These latter things are specific to your
web server, MTA and virtual hosting setup.
heya. I'm astonished. it works like a charm.
i've tested running another instance from a different apache vhost and I
found it out myself in the meantime. I can live with the mentioned
restrictions very well...
thank you very much!

[Mailman-Users] mailman lighttpd cgi-bin weirdness
(this is a resend, since my last post was probably discarded due to a digital signature) I've been almost successful with my installation of mailman with lighttpd and postfix (yay, I guess) on Debian 4.0, but for the following gotcha: http://postbiota.org/mailman/admin has links with cgi-bin in them, e.g. http://postbiota.org/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/tt which 404 with my current configuration.

not because I use local domain and not virtual domain

You still need MTA = 'Postfix' in mm_cfg.py if you want Mailman to
generate and maintain the data/aliases* files for Postfix.

I don't know what brain dead packager put those comments in mm_cfg.py,
but that comment is just wrong. If you want Mailman to generate
aliases for Postfix, you need MTA = 'Postfix' whether or not you are
using virtual domains. See
http://www.list.org/mailman-install/node12.html. You need to do the
things discussed in sec 6.1.1 in any case. If you are using Postfix
virtual domains, you also need the things discussed in section 6.1.2.
You may also find the comments in Defaults.py regarding MTA and
POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS to be of interest.
but when I put /bin/genaliases..
I can't generarte..
What happens when you give the bin/genaliases command? What is the
response?

Because you have not overridden the default MTA = 'Manual', genaliases
just prints the aliases for you to deal with manually.

I did try subject:\n But that traps a bunch of mangled subject lines where the user's MUA has munged the original to add spaces. The original regexp in header_filter_rules should catch any subject header consisting only of white space and zero or one occurrences of '(no subject)'. I think the issue may be that the incoming post has no Subject: header at all rather than an empty one. In this event, if there is a subject_prefix, Mailman will add a Subject: header with the list prefix and '(no subject)'. If there is no subject_prefix, the message will be sent from Mailman with no Subject: header. If that is the issue, you need 3 header_filter_rules. The first is as above to catch the empty or (no subject). The second is with a regexp of ^subject: and an action of accept to accept the remaining messages with Subject: headers, and the third has a regexp ^. and an action of hold to hold all messages that fall through the second. If you have other header_filter_rules, they should come before the accept rule (#2) or they won't be reached. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED] The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

Re: [Mailman-Users] new server
Cheryl Faye Schwartz wrote: Is it possible to migrate the archives from Mailman on one server to another server? Yes. The most direct way is to just move the archives/private/listname.mbox/listname.mbox file from the old server to the new and then build the archives on the new server with bin/arch. If there are archives on both servers, just combine the listname.mbox files. It's a good idea to at least check the .mbox file with bin/cleanarch before running bin/arch. Use the --help options on both commands for more info. You can also move the list (settings, membership, member options) by moving the lists/listname/config.pck file. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED] The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.
