I am following the instructions found at: http://www.mhonarc.org/archive/html/mhonarc-users/2001-10/msg00021.html I can't help you with those instructions but would like to put in a good word for OpenInfo's Mailman patches: http://www.openinfo.co.uk/mailman/ Among the available patches are some to integrate Mailman with MHonArc and/or Htdig. Provided you're running reasonably current versions, these patches are simple to apply and work wonderfully.

I found OpenInfo's patches do an excellent job of this: http://www.openinfo.co.uk/mailman/ especially patches 444879, 444884, 760567, and 820723. The first two aren't for MHonArc per se; instead, they add the ability to search archives using htdig. By the way, one point I didn't find mentioned on OpenInfo's site -- apply the patches *before* configuring the mailman source.

The spammer has disabled the web interface, and since we did not subscribe ourselves, we don't have the individual passwords to unsubscribe via email. If a spammer is going to such trouble, I imagine he/she would also do things like not have -leave/unsubscribe aliases, require approval to unsubscribe, sync the list periodically with an external source, etc. I think you're better off treating the source as you would any other spammer: complain to his/her provider, report to blocklist(s), block / filter messages from the source, and the like.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Mailing List Problem

The address do not appear anywhere within the list. can you offer any suggestions as to how we can stop this address from receiving our messages? First, you need to detect how messages are getting to that address. More than likely, they're being forwarded automatically. To figure it out, ask the receipient if s/he can send you a copy of one of the messages already sent; make sure it includes *all* the headers. If the version of Mailman you're using supports VERP and you've configured it to use that, tracking down the subscriber is as simple as looking at the from envelope header (ie, From ) - it will hold an encoded version of the subscriber's address. Alternatively, look at the Received headers and trace the connection (the recipient's host(s) will occur at the top, you're interested in the next host). Finally, if you can't get a copy of the headers or they're not helpful, get in touch with the mail administrator at the recipient's site and ask for his/her cooperation in tracing the source of the messages.
