[Mailman-Users] Mail are not going out from mailman...
Dear All, One of my list with 6000 users is not sending mail to all the users of a same domain, I search over the logs of postfix and the only error i found is some of the user on the domain are not accepting the mails reply: '550 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual mailbox table\r\n' reply: retcode (550); Msg: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual mailbox table Is it possible that mailman is not sending mails to all the users on the domain or mails are send domain wise so all the mail stuck. Any way i didn't find any thing in the qfiles. Please help me out ...

The most likely cause of this is the recipient domain is accepting the mail and then discarding it as spam (or delivering it to the users' spam or bulk folders). See the FAQ at http://wiki.list.org/x/4oA9. Is it possible that mailman is not sending mails to all the users on the domain or mails are send domain wise so all the mail stuck. Any way i didn't find any thing in the qfiles. and followed up: When i check the qfiles they are empty but if i restart mailman it start sending all pending mails again is that any where else mailman store pending mails request ... No. As far as the main delivery path is concerned, incoming mail is placed in a queue entry in qfiles/in. That queue entry is picked up by IncomingRunner and is processed through a pipeline of handlers and ultimately queued in qfiles/out for delivery. That entry is picked up by OutgoingRunner which delivers messages with from one to hundreds of recipients via SMTP to your Postfix. At that point (after delivery is complete), it writes the 'post' log entry and the 'smtp' log entry (message-id smtp to list for nnn recips, completed in nn.nnn seconds). When the above log entry is written, the mail has all been passed to Postfix and is no longer in Mailman except for things like archives and digests. If any SMTP errors occur between Mailman and Postfix, they are logged in 'smtp-failure' and if retryable, the message with the failed recipient list is queued in qfiles/retry where it will be picked up by RetryRunner and requed in qfiles/out after a delay. If there are no files in qfiles/in/, qfiles/out/ or qfiles/retry, Mailman is done with message delivery, and it's all in Postfix. Restarting Mailman can't affect that message unless it is being processed by a runner at the time of restart in which case, there may be a .bak file in a queue which will be reprocessed when Mailman restarts. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED]The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

Re: [Mailman-Users] HTML table code broken via Mailman
=3d is the escape code for a =. That is direct HTML as translated. Regular HTML was used, so that part you were incorrect. However... You were right on the money about the footer! Wow, that did it.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Unsubscribe after just one hard bounce
I am using the cPanel version of Mailman, as someone pointed out earlier. This is at my webhost, and I do not have such access to those logs. What cPanel does give me is a graphical user interface. It shows that bogus user that I subscribed manually as having the status of nomail (Reason [b]) which I assume to mean bounce. It would have to be a hard bounce, as it was a non-existent email address. A screen shot of that interface as mentioned, is here: http://www.lambdaent.com/pub/mailman/membership.jpg On 10/4/08 11:49 PM, Lloyd Tennison [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: What do the bounce logs say about that user?

Re: [Mailman-Users] HTML table code broken via Mailman
The email programs that sent the mail both Apple Mail and Thunderbird, so it appears that Microsoft is not the only culprit. I would have assumed (perhaps incorrectly) that Thunderbird uses standards. I have just contacted my webhost, hostforweb.com, regarding the Personalization option, as well as cron/disbaled.

[Mailman-Users] Mailman and SMS
Hello, Is there a way to thin down Mailman to work nicely with SMS? I would like to set up a system similar to Twitter. Has anyone done this at all? I know it is a stretch for Mailman. Also other middle-ware software is needed for the web-app part. It is very important that all web pages be totally customizable, and mobile screen friendly, and also that all text message text be very short and also totally customizable. It seems that Mailman only allows some customizations. It is also very important that updates (via apt-get for example) work without killing the customizations.

Your biggest problem here is not Mailman. Your biggest problem is that all mail-to-SMS gateways that are in operation, especially including the official gateways that are operated by the carriers, literally throw away billions and billions of SMS messages per day, simply because they're overloaded -- too much spam. The highest level of service that the carriers provide regarding SMS messages are those messages which are sent from one handset to another. And even there they toss away billions and billions of SMS messages per day. So, do you really want to be shouting into hurricane force winds? Solve the back-end SMS problems on the carriers, and then you can worry about whether it makes sense to try to do any of the rest.
