I am receiving the mails as forwarded by sendmail, all of the aliases are working. the mail log has none of the typical gid problems. Everything looks like mail is being sent out. Without any logs - nobody knows what's going on. Mailman logs quite comprehensively, so see if you can see the mail being sent out and received by the MTA having been processed by Mailman, see if the mail is actually getting accepted by Mailman. It'd help a great deal if you pinpoint exactly where the mail is getting held up. The following FAQ entries might help you: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=all#1.7 http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=all#3.14 Looking at the system log file gate_news is being restarted by cron every five minutes. I cannot find any cron processes running though when I perform a ps -aux | grep cron except the deamon. None of my mailman logs are being populated except the subscribe list. I'm unsure as to what you mean by 'daemon', are Mailman's qrunner processes running? My mm_cfg.py file appears to be empty but my Defaults.py contains what I need it to. What am I missing? You should not use Defaults.py to configure Mailman, instead copy and paste what you need out of Defaults.py into your mm_cfg.py. The reason for this is that if you upgrade your version of Mailman, your site configuration will be completely and irreversibly overwritten.

[Mailman-Users] Re: most secure final config
On Mon, 05 Apr 2004 20:48:10 -0400, wslepecki scribbled down: Quick newbie question. I am finishing installing a mailman server and I have a security/config question. What ports do I need to open through my firewall, which direction, and how do I set up DNS. Mailman either uses SMTP or sendmail to send mail to your local SMTP server, Mailman leaves it to the SMTP server to handle distributing the mail to its recipients. If you're handing incoming and outgoing mail on the same server, you need to have port 25 open both inbound and outbound. If im hunch is right, in the firewall, I open smtp out, pop3 in, and the server will work. I don't want to open smtp in because I don't want people to hijack my smtp server. Then again, does mailman have smtp? You'll need to have some way for people to post to the mailing list - it's pretty useless otherwise. I don't know what MTA you're using - so I can't offer any specific advice on MTA security. The biggest problem when running a mail server is relaying, although most reasonable MTAs are now secured against relaying out of the box. See http://mail-abuse.org/tsi/ar-fix.html This is rather OT for this mailing list - if you still need help, try posting to your distributions security mailing list, news://comp.os.linux.security, or your MTAs mailing list or newsgroup.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Utilizing SpamAssassin w/ MailMan (repost)
Hey Chris, On Mon, 2004-03-29 at 19:07, Chris Barnes wrote: This is a repost, but judging by the lack of responses, I think it might be good to ask again. Is there a way to utilize SpamAssassin running on the same box as Mailman? By that, I mean SA is already running, so all email coming in will be scored by SA for its 'spamminess'. Is there a way to get MM to place those messages with a Spam=Yes score on hold until the list owner can review the message on an otherwise unmoderated list? I want this for ALL lists (a global setting). There was discussion of a plugin which integrated Mailman and SA at http://zgp.org/linux-elitists/[EMAIL PROTECTED] but that was for Mailman 2.0 - I don't know whether such a plugin still exits. IMO content filtering should be taken care of before it gets to Mailman, e.g. by MailScanner, or AMaViS - they integrate SA and virus scanning. Personally I block, forward, and auto-learn spam above 10 or so points, which takes the load of Mailma, but you may not be comfortable doing this. If you want Mailman to filter for SA's headers you can use the header_filter_rules option under Privacy Options to filter for that particular header. You can defer, hold, reject, discard, or accept based on this regexp. Something like this *MAY* work, although my understanding of regular expressions is full of holes at best: /^X-Spam-Status: Yes*/ As I said - I don't know if that'll work, so someone who is more familiar with regexp's will hopefully put me right if need be. Also, I use AMaViS, so your headers may differ - as usual, YMMV. You could do it the other way round, and only accept messages with X-Spam-Status: No, or you could put messages SA thinks are spammy on hold and check them over yourself.

If you don't want to learn, go sign up for Yahoo! e-Groups, or similar. Or find an ISP that will provide Mailman hosting.
