 I'm sorry to disturb you with my questions but I'm very confused - how the 
 mailing list gets back the errors and in what cases.


Mailman gets bounces in two ways.

1) If Mailman gets an SMTP recipient refused response to a recipient
during its SMTP transaction, this is logged in Mailman's 'smtp-failure'
log and a bounce recorded if the list is processing bounces.

2) For the kinds of things you are seeing in your MTA log, Mailman has
sent the message with envelope from LISTNAME-bounces@list.domain, or if
VERPed, from LISTNAME-bounces+recipient_user=users.domain@list.domain.

The MTA will send a DSN to that address and assuming it is deliverable,
Mailman will receive it and record a bounce if the list is processing
bounces.

In either case, a recorded bounce is logged in Mailman's bounce log and
scored. The DSN itself is discarded after processing unless it results
in a disable and bounce_notify_owner_on_disable is Yes in which case it
is attached to the notice to the admin.

Look at Mailman's 'bounce' log. If bounces are not being recorded,
ensure that the list's Bounce processing - bounce_processing setting is
Yes and that the LISTNAME-bounces address is deliverable (you should see
the delivery of the DSN to Mailman in your MTA logs.

Note that for messages which are 'Deferred', they have to time out in
the MTA before Mailman receives an undeliverable notice. This typically
takes up to 5 days depending on the MTA configuration.

Greylisting is also a temporary failure in the MTA and normally the
message will be retried and accepted upon retry. This is not a bounce.

 Hi all
 
 Thanks Mark for your reply. I realise its all done by volunteers. Sorry I 
 can't help on translations as I only know English, C, Fortran etc :-) 
 Im confused though as according to the link below many languages are fully 
 translated. But if I select what ever language its always the same section 
 that remains untranslated e.g.  I get You may enter a privacy password 
 below. etc ...  in English. Surely that phrase has been translated. If I 
 pick Japanese which has been nearly fully translated I still get in the 
 Subscribing section most of the text in English. Just the button label is 
 translated.

First of all, the page you refer to was part of a project that was
started by a woman who subsequently had health issues and ultimately
died. What is there is based on message catalogs imported from Mailman
at some point and probably never updated since. There have been many
Mailman updates since then that affect translations, and some
translations have been partially or completely updated since following
guidelines/procedures at http://wiki.list.org/DEV/i18nhowto. None of
this is reflected at the translations.launchpad.net site.

Furthermore, the phrase You may enter a privacy password below. etc ...
 is not in a string in the message catalog. It is in the listinfo.html
template. Every one of the 38 partially or fully supported translations
contains this translated template and none of them appear to contain
that phrase in English.

I suspect the issue in your case is that the templates for the various
translations are not installed on your server, so Mailman falls back to
the English template (the button labels are dynamic and do come from the
message catalog, but the bulk of the page comes from the template).

Does your Mailman installation have 39 'lc' subdirectories in (I think
in Debian) /usr/lib/mailman/templates/ or does it just have
/usr/lib/mailman/templates/en/.

Also, how about /usr/lib/mailman/messages/ (there normally is not an
'en' here)?

If I'm not mistaken, the Debian Mailman install process requires you to
specify the languages you want to support at install time. Try

dpkg-reconfigure mailman

 The bounce does not send back the status of the message ( diferred , unknown 
 user etc).
 How can I fix this?


See the list's web admin Bounce processing page. Also see Mailman's 'bounce' 
log.

Bounces are returned to Mailman. If the list's bounce_processing setting is No, 
they are ignored. If Yes, they are handled according to the remaining settings. 
List owners are not notified until a members bounce score reaches 
bounce_score_threshold and the member's delivery is disabled, and then only if 
bounce_notify_owner_on_disable is Yes

Beginning in 2.1.19, a list admin can request notification any time a member's 
score is incremented.

These admin notices contain a copy of the triggering bounce.

Although my Mailman install is is currently part of CPanel, so I don't need

 If you have sufficient access to the server, you could create your own
 web page to display the results of list_lists. See the FAQ at
 http://wiki.list.org/x/4030648 for info on doing these kinds of things.

https://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2010-June/069783.html
(from the archives) is quite a nice approach, too.

Just en under /var/lib/mailman/templates/
No lc dirs.


Also, how about /usr/lib/mailman/messages/ (there normally is not an

Lots of language directories from ar to zh under /var/lib/mailman/messages/
No en directory.


If I'm not mistaken, the Debian Mailman install process requires you to
specify the languages you want to support at install time. Try
dpkg-reconfigure mailman
Just did that and I selected all the langs that I wanted to support and 
it installed an additional few dozen languages. I had misunderstood that 
that initial setting was the languages you wanted *supported*  and the 
next question after that is the default language that you required.


Now selecting other languages show the whole page (except for the list 
description of course) fully translated :-)


So doing the dpkg-reconfigure mailman solved my problem.
Very much appreciated. Now the overseas users won't have to read 
Australian all the time :-)
