[Mailman-Users] Mass subscribe Member limit? (add_members)

2003-08-08 Thread Gustavo Gouvea
Hi,

Im using redhat 8.0 + mailman 2.0.13.

It happens that Im using add_members to mass subscribe
25,000 members.

When I try to do it, the script tells me that several
email adresses was already subscribed, but they were not.
I use list_members and bingo! The emails informed as already
subscribed are not subscribed.

Is there a maximum number of members I can subscribe once?
I seems that add-members

The problem is that sync_members is even worse, because
it can handle less than 3,000 adresses once and aborts
if it finds any error.

Im searching a syncronize solution. I was thinkin about
deleting and adding all the members any time I need to sync
the list. But I found that problem with add-members.

Again: is there a maximum number of members to subscribe
each time I run add_members?

Thanks.

[Mailman-Users] Mass subscribe with sync_members...

2003-06-11 Thread Gustavo Gouvea

Hi all,

I´ve just implemented Mailman 2.0.13 in my company and
I got some problems:

I have a file with 3000 email addr, that is sent through ftp
every day to my mail server.
Then I used sync_members -f file-name listname to keep
the list sycronized with that file.
I cannot guarantee that all mail addr on the list is valid,
and I cannot filter that. If one addr is invalid the script
aborts. This is my first problem.

Question-1: Can I make Mailman just read the file with email addrs
just like sendmail aliases :include: files, without using
sync_members?

Question-2: If using sync_members can I disable ValidateMail?
Will Mailman crash with invalid addr like 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]  (2 addresses in one line, like some
address in my file)
if I disable that check?
I am not a full programmer, so I dont want to mess with the source
code...
But disabling the ValidateMail seems easy...
Any easy solution?


Question-3: My 3000 mail list is uploaded only when its changed, so I
dont
know when it will be uploaded. I realized I´ll have to run
sync_members
every 5 or 1 minute in crontab to guarantee my list is in sync.
Is there any way I can tell Mailman to run sync_members -f filename
listname
every time a message arrives for the list? I just like to know yes or
no?





Thanks a lot!
I will apreciate any comments.
