Yep, I get the "Bug in Mailman version 2.1.20" error page. This setup handles other attachments pretty well, just this particular person posts much larger files.

[Mailman-Users] Friendly name for digest sender

[Mailman-Users] Mailman owner delivery
Hi all, I have a minor mystery. I recently migrated to a new server, hosting a half dozen or so Mailman lists. The old server ran on Fedora 8, but I had upgraded to Mailman 2.1.18. The new server is Fedora 22, running Mailman 2.1.20. Postfix is the MTA on both. Migration was just to copy over ~mailman, install the new software (same paths), install /etc/aliases and ~mailman/aliases. And everything worked! Or so I thought, I found one little thing that doesn't. Held message e-mails going to the -owner addresses have a strange issue. I have "list-help" aliases for all my lists, and the MM list owners are set to those addresses. I've verified that the aliases work, and deliver mail to all the folks on the alias if I just send a message. However, Mailman -owner mail only comes to me (I'm the first address on the list and local to the box). I can find no errors in the logs, it all looks like it's working (status=sent). Any suggestions appreciated. --Bryan -- Bryan Blackwell -- Unix Systems Engineer br...@skiblack.com -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://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: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org

When e-mail lists had no web interface, subscribers would often send admin commands - "unsubscribe", "set digest", etc., to the actual list instead of the admin address. This was pretty common when MJ lists were ported to MM. Those filters are in place to catch those, in part to avoid the follow on "RTFM" posts to the main list. Probably just as well to turn them off, most people use the web interface nowadays and have for some time. --Bryan -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://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: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org

Argh. Thanks for the help, I was going a bit bonkers. FWIW, I did find a fix to something else I was looking to take care of while I've been reading the screens. --Bryan -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://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: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org

[Mailman-Users] From munging to show user via listname
Greetings, I dug through the archive but couldn't quite find the answer to this question. I have a couple e-mail lists I manage, I thought I had them set up identically but I'm stuck getting the From address to appear the way I want it. One list's messages comes through as: From: via This is what I want. The other is: From: Which is not what I'm looking for. Other than that, everything works as desired.

If you do not have one, you can only re-post them to the new mailman-list, but I am unsure about that. Nope, no mbox. Re-posting won't work since I don't have the individual posts. Looks like I may end up writing something, it just surprises me that no one else has had this problem and posted a solution - this is the default Majordomo archiving mechanism. I guess all the folks who really wanted web archives had already converted to a real archiver and worked from that. --Bryan -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp

Re: [Mailman-Users] How to transfer Majordomo archive to mailman
I've been looking for an answer to migrating archives as well. The only problem with this procedure is this step: On Feb 28, 2005, at 4:51 PM, Martin Mewes wrote: d) Copy the mbox of the majordomo-list to the correct place of the mailman-mbox Majordomo doesn't (by default anyway) store its sent messages in an mbox.

You can see one of the digests here: http://www.corvair.org/chapters/test/v02.n4928.txt I've taken a look at the old digest_arch script, but I don't know python at all to figure out how to make it work (I tried a pass on some test files, but didn't end up with a useful mbox). I've also dug through the FAQ and the Mailman Users list archive, but I haven't found a posted solution. If someone has made this work and can pass a solution or clue, I'd be grateful. I do know perl and shell scripting well enough to adapt someone else's solution, if something like that exists.
