I change the root password too ( the same) but doesnt work, now the old password and the new one worked Help plz Mauricio, the confusion may come from the fact that there might be as many as three passwords involved here: 1) The password for the entire Mailman site installation (which you may not even have if you didn't install Mailman yourself; this is set with the mmsitepass command line program) 2) The password for the list itself (which is set when the list is created or later with change_pw as you wrote) Stephen confused mmsitepass and change_pw in his reply. The above is correct. 3) The passwords for the list owners if they're subscribed to the list. The confusion arises, I think, because Mailman actually accepts all of the above in terms of logging into the admin web interface for a list. No. Mailman will not accept the owner's list member password (if different from the list admin and site admin passwords) for logging in to the admin web interface. Also, as Stephen notes there is also a list moderator password which allows access to the list's admindb page but not the admin pages. There is no command line too so set the moderator password. it is set/changed via the list's admin Passwords page. -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org

What is the procedure actually to create the mailing list , does the owner requires any privelages . If you create a list via bin/newlist, the list owner address should receive an emailed notice provided the '-q' option is not given to newlist, and provided Mailman (mailmanctl and the qrunners) is running. If the qrunners are not running, the notice will be queued and will be sent when Mailman is started. The list owner is only an email address. Nothing is required of it other than it be valid. The person running bin/newlist itself must be either root or a member of Mailman's group. 2. While creating mailing list through web interface using http://domain name/mailman/create , it asks for list creater password , We reset the password of admin and list creator password using mmsitepass but the password which is reset is not accepted in the interface . What is the exact error? Are you certain you are giving the creator password or site admin password exactly as set by mmsitepass? Is there any procedure to update passwords or any other way to create mailing list Lists are created either via the web create or bin/newlist. The site admin and/or list creator passwords are set/changed with bin/mmsitepass. List admin and moderator passwords can be set/changed via the list's web admin interface. List admin passwords can also be changed via bin/change_pw. -- Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.netThe highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

Set Membership Management... - Membership Listdefault_member_moderation to Yes. 2. Set everyone's moderate bit On at Membership Management... - Membership List - Additional Member Tasks. You can leave the list like that and set a moderator password and tell the approved posters to post by including a header Approved: moderator_password in their posts. This is the spoof proof method - only people who know this password can post without moderation. If you don't want to do that, you can uncheck the mod box in Membership Management... - Membership List for those list members who are allowed to post, and if any non-members are allowed to post, add their addresses to Privacy options... - Sender filters - accept_these_nonmembers.
