In the web admin interface under Content filtering set filter_content

It looks to me like you are being hit with massive amounts of spam to
the list's post and bounces address or you have some kind of mail loop
going on which is generating all this mail.

Your high CPU utilization is a result of Mailman doing real work to
handle all this mail.


After further off-list analysis, it turned out there was a mail loop
involving the mailman-owner address. Here's the OP's description.

This was the case:

I moved the lists server from one hosts to another (which I wouldn't
recommend us less you have no choice)
The original host was using sendmail, the new host is using Postfix
(easy to deal with). When I tarred up
the lists I forgot that mailman is a lists, so the configuration for the
original server could find a valid
email address for the owner, it was looking at the original servers
mailman email address which was a different domain. This cause the
exchange server to send the mail back to the host, then the host would
send it back to
the exchange server and so on ...

[Mailman-Users] User Commands

Similar to the which email address command in majordomo?

If you have command line access, see

 bin/find-member --help

A user (but not a list admin) can go to the web user options page and
List my other subscriptions.

There is no email command for this.

I'm not sure whether I do use it, but I think I should.

Most of our list users are in our own domain. That domain certainly  
is less spoofable in the envelope, because we don't accept mail from  
our domain unless it's been through our servers. We don't get spam  
with sussex.ac.uk in the envelope sender domain.


With SPF records now widely published, including by several large  
free email service providers, it's certainly within the power of  
sites to validate the envelope sender address of much of their  
inbound email. Losing this facility now would be a great shame.


I certainly don't see how having the option can do much harm.

It might be worth adding code to support BATV, if it isn't there  
already.


MM3 does not yet support this.

So, I've landed a branch that gets rid of the MM3 equivalent to  
USE_ENVELOPE_SENDER, but it will still be possible to consider the  
MAIL FROM or Sender addresses in preference to From, if you wanted  
to.  I've implemented a site admin definable header lookup scheme so  
you can define the order that headers are considered.  By default it's  
From:, MAIL FROM, Reply-To, Sender.  This is a global order just like  
U_E_S was.

Our LMTP code is intended to make this decision before the message

I think so too.  How's that coming along?

[Mailman-Users] spam to -owner addresses

2009-02-10 Thread Cristóbal Palmer
Hi folks,

I'm seeing a spike in spam to -owner addresses on the two hosts I
administer.

I'm hoping people can help me change site-wide settings so that I
don't get messages (to -owner addresses) that start something like:

  Spam detection software, running on the system mailman.example.org,
  has identified this incoming email as possible spam.  The original
  message has been attached to this so you can view it (if it isn't
  spam) or label similar future email.  If you have any questions, see
  the administrator of that system for details.

That last sentence is particularly galling since I _am_ the
administrator for the systems in question and I can't spot where in
the configs to keep mailman from forwarding the spam.

What I've got in my mm_cfg.py:

#-
# Uncomment if you want to filter mail with SpamAssassin. For
# more information please visit this website:
# http://www.daa.com.au/~james/articles/mailman-spamassassin/
GLOBAL_PIPELINE.insert(1, 'SpamAssassin')
SPAMASSASSIN_HOST = 'localhost:783'
SPAMASSASSIN_DISCARD_SCORE = 6
SPAMASSASSIN_HOLD_SCORE = 7
SPAMASSASSIN_MEMBER_BONUS = 2

Yes, I realize the hold score is higher than the discard score. I
don't want held messages. I just want to discard.

I can send a link to an example message off-list if somebody would
like to help me troubleshoot.

Cheers,

Re: [Mailman-Users] Two lists: same name, different domain -- the postfix way

Hello,

I've been wanting 2 different mailing lists with the same
name, each on a different domain.




The idea is to use postifx's canonical mapping
to re-write the email addresses on all inbound
list traffic to secondary domains to add
a tag to the user part of the address.  And then
do the reverse to outbound list traffic.


Where this fits into the postfix data flow can be
seen in the diagrams at the Postfix Architecture Overview,
http://www.postfix.org/OVERVIEW.html.  It is the
cleanup(8) daemon that rewrites addresses according to the
canonical mappings.

[Mailman-Users] Wiki editing in debian etch

2009-02-10 Thread Karl O. Pinc

Hi,

I'm running Debian Etch and simply cannot edit the wiki.
Iceweasel (aka firefox) and konqurer have different problems.

I'll eventually update to Lenny.  In the meantime is there a workaround?

I'm trying to edit:
http://wiki.list.org/display/DOC/From+field+displayed+by+Microsoft+Outlook

The postfix solution to the MS Outlook from by way of display problem
is to have postfix remove the Sender header.  This is done
by adding something like
header_checks = regexp:/etc/postfix/header_checks to
/etc/postfix/main.cf and then putting:

/^Sender: +[^ @]+-bounces@/ IGNORE

into /etc/postfix/header_checks.

That sounds like a problem in your web server or in the SSL libraries.

Check all your logs (web server and Mailman alike), and see if you can 
find anything there that might help us narrow this down further.

I'm not aware of any way to do this within Mailman, at least not without 
changing the source code.  But I wouldn't recommend doing a Linux quota 
system either -- that would probably just cause Mailman to lock up 
completely.


You might want to consider a separate monitoring script that runs 
continuously and cleans out any cruft, or maybe slice your queue runners 
for that part of the system so that you can handle the load better.

What problems are you having with Iceweasel?  Firefox works fine for me
