The domain was in add_virtualhost in the mm_cfg.py. Defaults.py had not been changed. I'm not sure what had happened. But running bin/withlist -l -r fix_url listname -u list_web_domain with the name as it was entered in the add_virtualhost entry seems to have fixed it.

[Mailman-Users] fixing URLs...
I have a list for a community service club, and something happened on the server (probably related to a container software upgrade) the end result of which is that many URLs in the admin area, particularly for the archives and for the form submission buttons, have changed from the club's domain to the internal configuration name for the server. This results in many links and buttons generating 404 errors for users...

Also, if you are testing greylisting from a GMail account, GMail tends to retry messages from another random outgoing server, so it may take considerable time before GMail happens to randomly pick an outgoing server it has already used and greylisting can confirm the same message from the same user at the same server...

Re: [Mailman-Users] changing domains on Mailman implementation
Okay, so it took me long enough to get back to this (like, a month shy of three years...). I am sure this will be of use to someone, maybe even me in the future, so I wanted to make sure it was publicly documented somewhere. Anyway, to change the domain of a mailing list, when both domains are hosted on the same server and the server is running PLESK Onyx: 1) In the PLESK admin, make sure that mailing lists are enabled for the domain you are moving the mailing list to. This will add the add_virtualhost line for the new domain to the mm_cfg.py file. 2) Go into the PSA database and update the MailLists table to change the dom_id for the mailing list you are moving to the id of the new subscription. This will take some looking around, or you can temporarily create a dummy mailing list on the new domain so you can see what its dom_id is. 3) run /usr/lib/mailman/bin/withlist -l -r fix_url listname --urlhost=the.new.web.domain 4) run /usr/lib/mailman/bin/genaliases 5) In the PLESK admin, find the subscription you moved the mailing list to, and go to Mail -> Mailing Lists 5)a) Click the name of the mailing list you just moved, uncheck the "Switched On" checkbox, and click "OK." 5)b) Click on the name of the mailing list you just moved again, check the "Switched On" checkbox, and click "OK." This appears to reset the aliases and email addresses in the mail configuration. 6) Restart your mail server (i.e. Postfix). This can either be done from the PLESK services management window or from the command line. 7) Restart mailman from the command line with: systemctl restart mailman 8) If you created a temporary mailing list before step 2, you can delete that temporary mailing list now. The mailing list should now be running on the new domain, and receiving and relaying emails correctly. Keith -- ---- from my mac to yours...

If mailman isn't running and it won't restart, check the log files and wherever the PID and lock files are being stored to make sure Mailman can write its files.

Marc, Are you getting logged in to the "[listname] administrative interface?" This link should be at the bottom of the mailman list pages (i.e. the subscribe page) for any given list. when you get logged in here, you should be on the General Options page people are talking about. On my lists, the field you are looking for is the second question, but customizations or changes in configuration could change the order or number of questions.

If you want to slow the rate of outgoing messages, talk to Softlayer about possibly throttling your send rate for a while. How long will depend on how often mailings are sent and how many of your subscribers are on any given mailhost. If you really don't have a lot of subscribers all on hotmail or all on Yahoo! or all on Gmail, then the throttling is probably less of an issue. Also check the current reputation of your sending IP address. If it already has a developed good rating, and your messages are unlikely to be flagged with a little more traffic from your mailing list. Keith -- from my mac to yours...

Greg, I would think that a service provider that does not reply to emails in a timely manner and does not provide telephone support is, in itself, a "red flag" that this ISP does not want your business and does not care about your reputation or theirs.

I can see that if the old mailing lists weren't that advanced that you could have 20 years of buildup of bad addresses, but shouldn't mailman have unsubscribed these addresses after 6 months of bouncing? I know on the several mailing lists I administer that bad addresses get auto-unsubscribed.

No, that isn't quite correct.

They probably aren't refusing messages from certain list members, but every message on your mailing list and possibly every message from your mail server. Of course, this relies on this actually being the issue. Another possibility is that a school or corporate mail server administrator made a policy change and pushed new email addresses to everyone, then after 4 or 6 or 8 months, or maybe a year of forwarding old addresses to new addresses, deleted the old addresses so they are no longer valid and these bounced generating the rash of unsubscribes. In part, this is done by mailman so you do not look like a spammer who will likely not bother removing invalid addresses from their address lists. This is very similar to what has been going on with the cable-provider-I-can't-remember-the-name-of to Bresnan to ComCast to Charter changes in this part of the US over the last few years. All the email addresses of the precursor to Bresnan have been deleted, and in most areas all personal and many business Bresnan email addresses have been deleted.

[Mailman-Users] changing domains on Mailman implementation
Is there an efficient way to change the domain name that mailman is affiliated with? I have two mailing lists that were created for an organization before that organization had their own domain. At the time the organization was sure they did not want their own domain and would not be getting a domain. Since then, they have chosen to get a domain and set up a web site. I would like to move their mailing lists onto their domain. It looks like the process for this is: 1) get the list of subscribers 2) delete the mailing list from the one domain (losing the archives) 3) create the mailing list on the new domain 4) subscribe the list of subscribers This process doesn't seem too difficult, but I would prefer to keep the archives, if possible. Both domains are on the same server, running CentOS7 and PLESK 12.5, if that makes a difference.

However, if they try again with the same confirmation code, they will get a response back that the confirmation code is no loger valid.
