Re: [Mailman-Users] Disabling excessive bounces
Simon wrote: I'm having trouble with a list where members are continuously disabled due to excessive bounces. I want to disable bounce removal but I'm not sure how. I've fiddled with the settings under bounce processing but so far nothing I do there is helping. I'm new to mailman so sorry if this is basic but Googling the problem has just resulted in more confusion. Just set Should Mailman perform automatic bounce processing? (Details for bounce_processing) to No on the web admin Bounce processing page. If you want to continue to process bounces, but disable automatic removal, you can't do that, but you could set bounce_you_are_disabled_warnings to a large number so members whose delivery is disabled by bounce would not be removed for years. If you don't want to disable delivery at all due to bouncing, then turn off bounce processing as above. The real solution though is to understand why these members mail is bouncing and to fix that issue. As long as bounce_processing is Yes and bounce_notify_owner_on_disableis Yes, the list owner will be sent a copy of the disabling bounce which may help diagnose the issue. -- Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.netThe highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Ancient messages

See the FAQ at http://wiki.list.org/x/_4A9 and make sure that only one of each of Mailman's qrunners is running. And Mailman starts sending again ALL the messages that was sent until today. I mean, every message!! I don't know how to fix that. I've cleaned/removed all files in qfiles directory, restarted Postfix, restarted Mailman, killed all mailman process and start again. After some seconds a huge amount of ancient messages floods my server again. How can I clear EVERYTHING that is stored in Mailman? If you have emptied all the qfiles/* directories, there is nothing left for Mailman to do. Either the messages are already queued in Postfix, or something else is reposting these messages to Mailman. Examination of Mailman's logs may help. -- Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.netThe highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

It looks like you have installed aliases as virtual_alias_maps instead of alias_maps. Also, the list name in the aliases should be just the name, not the email address unless you have also installed some virtual hosting patch that makes the listname have the domain included. See http://www.list.org/mailman-install/postfix-integration.html and if gdsolutions.com.ve is a Postfix virtual domain, see http://www.list.org/mailman-install/postfix-virtual.html. As I have spent days trying to make this work, I decided to ask for help. At this point, I am thinking about recompiling mailman with a custom --with-mail-gid. Any advices? That won't change this. This is my setup: python 2.4.3 postfix 2.3.3 spamassassin installed as a daemon virtual domains virtual mailboxes I can send full configuration details as needed. Note that Mailman/Postfix integration as described in the above referenced manual pages is for virtual alias domains and not virtual mailbox domains. You can make this work for list domains that are virtual mailbox domains if necessary. See the FAQ at http://wiki.list.org/x/ZoCj. If you need further help from this list, we need to see the output of postconf -n, the contents of mm_cfg.py, and assuming you have MTA = 'Postfix' in mm_cfg.py, the output of ls -l /usr/local/mailman/data. Also, we need to know what if any patches you have installed. -- Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.netThe highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

To clear this one up once and for all: It's perfectly possible to use virtual_alias_maps in virtual_mailbox_domains and there's no need to resort to messing with postfix transports. See the commented example at http://www.postfix.org/VIRTUAL_README.html#virtual_mailbox I use this setup all the time and it just works.

I have updated the FAQ entry to indicate it is not needed in the simple virtual_mailbox_domains case but can be used to generate mappings for other purposes. -- Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.netThe highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.
