That was it. I forgot to run genaliases again. It is all working fine now.

Just oversight. Thank you for your help and patience.

[Mailman-Users] Problem with Administrative requests for Mailing List

[Tim Chesnutt]

I have enabled mailing lists under cPanel on my hosting package and am 
doing my own testing to ensure I understand how it works before inviting 
other users, and putting the system into service.


Everything was going great with all my tests, till I tried sending a few 
messages to the list from addresses not yet subscribed.


I (as List Administrator), received notice that there were posts that 
needed my authorization to post.


When I visited the "Administrative requests for mailing list" page I see 
all the options, but none of them have any functionality.  That is no 
matter what option or options I select, when I click "Submit All Data" 
the page cycles, and returns with no change in the message status - no 
messages get Accepted, no messages get Rejected, no messages get 
Discarded, and no message is sent back to the author of the post (I have 
tried all possible combinations to see if there were someway to trigger 
action from this page, but to no avail.


In addition to not being able to administer these posts while signed in 
as the List Administrator, I note that I also can not cancel these posts 
from the email address they were originally submitted: When I follow the 
link to  cancel the posting, I am asked for a "confirmation string (i.e. 
/cookie/) that you received in your email message".  There is no 
confirmation string received in the email system message telling me that 
my post is awaiting moderation.


The Mailman version provided is 2.1.14-1, and the hosting company has 
been of no use to date in this question as they are unfamiliar with this 
functionality.


(there is another quirk that I mention here in case it is in some manner 
related, though I think not:  While in cPanel, looking under the heading 
Mailing Lists, the resulting page allows me to set up mailing lists, but 
for some reason the "modify" link with each mailing list does not take 
me to the Mailing List Administration page but to a broken link.  I had 
not worried about this lack of convenience as I can enter directly)


Thank you, Tim.

See the FAQs at  and

See the FAQ at .

Also, examine the source of the web page and look at the action= URL in
the form tag. Is this URL identical to the URL of the page?

Also, is there any message at the top of the returned page?

The URL in the message you receive should be of the form

http://host/mailman/confirm/list_host/xx

where xx is a string of 40 hex digits. If you go to that URL, you
shouldn't need to provide a confirmation string, but if the URL is
split by your mail reader, you might just be going to

http://host/mailman/confirm/list_host/

or something with less than the full 40 hex digits. In any case, the 40
hex digits are the confirmation string.

You might consider trying to find a hosting service that is more
committed to serving its customers ;)

This is a cPanel feature which is not a part of GNU Mailman. I can't
help with cPanel's list maintenance features outside the standard GNU
Mailman web admin and admindb interfaces.
