This will be easier in Mailman 3. Currently, you need to get a list
configured as you like and save it's configuration with

bin/config_list -o file LISTNAME

Then you may want to edit file to remove some list specific things like
owner, moderator, description, info and subject_prefix. This then
becomes your template which you can apply to other lists with

bin/config_list -i file OTHERLISTNAME

Re: [Mailman-Users] Bounce Disable processing not working?

The issue in your case is your incoming MTA is probably not delivering
mail for LISTNAME-bounces+TOKEN to LISTNAME-bounces.
If the MTA is Postfix, you need (in main.cf):
recipient_delimiter = +


This is exactly what was needed! THANKS!

[Mailman-Users] Mailman server not accept mail from Google Apps domain

[Hung Phan]

Hello,

All emails from google hosted domain (either gmail or our Google Apps  
domain) to our mailman server is being rejected while emails from  
other domains like me.com pass through. Is there a place in Mailman to  
whitelist a domain? Where can we check for the blacklisted domains?


Thanks,

Mailman has nothing to do with this. This is your incoming MTA which is
not accepting connects from these IPs or a firewall that is blocking
packets from these IPs.

did you actually read this page from google?
It clearly tells you were the problem is.
It's your MTA, your smtp server, who isnot accepting connections from google.

So probably google is just blacklisted either in your spamfilter, mta,
firewall ... 

cheers,
Matthias

[Mailman-Users] Apache does not have permission to access pipermail/listname

[Lars Olson]

I am receiving an apache forbidden page when I try to access my archives
after moving my lists to a new server.  My old server was 2.1.8 - new server
is running 2.1.9 and using the same domain name.

Everything is working correctly except the archives... 

/etc/httpd/conf.d/mailman.conf has appropriate piper alias
--- cut here ---
Alias /pipermail/ /var/lib/mailman/archives/public/

Options Indexes MultiViews FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all

--- end cut here ---

- Permissions on public archives directory is drwxrwsr-x with symlinks to
private lists
- Permissions on private archives directory is drwxrws--x with directories
below as drwxrwsr-x
- Files within the private folder are world readable with -rw-rw-r--
- I ran the bin/arch script (/usr/lib/mailman/bin/arch listname
archives/private/listname.mbox/listname.mbox)
- I ran the withlist script to verify permissions are correct (./withlist -l
-r fix_url listname)

Don't know what else to try.  Haven't found anything in the FAQ or the
Mailman archives.  I have tried reading the documentation labyrinth but that
hasn't helped so far - I'm thinking I need a new direction, a new path to
follow - been looking at this too long... 

Looking for some help at this point.
