[Mailman-Users] Configuration problem - virtual domains URL
I'm trying to figure out how to do a slightly unusual configuration. Normally mailman wants to use URLs like http://www.domain.com/mailman . But what I want to do is have url's that look like http://mailman.domain.com. So - in my config file I have: DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'ctyme.com' DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'ctyme.com' DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN = 'http://mailman.%s/' Seems to work for managing the list but when I try to use /create or /listinfo instead of http://mailman.ctyme.com I get http://mailman.mailman.ctyme.com What I don't understand is why the double mailman and how do I fix it? Thanks in advance. -- 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=showamp;file=faq01.027.htp

It is somewhat complicated, but the bottom line is it will work the way you expect if you set VIRTUAL_HOST_OVERVIEW = Off in mm_cfg.py. In a Mailman virtual host environment (the default), the host name that is plugged into DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN is in some cases obtained from the host portion of the URL that invoked the CGI. This clearly doesn't work if DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN has more than just %s in the host portion. If VIRTUAL_HOST_OVERVIEW = Off, the host name used is DEFAULT_URL_HOST. Thanks - that gets me a lot closer. listinfo works now. Create is broken, but it's not as broken as it was. It used to go to an invalid url. Now it just doesn't work. But I'll look into that.

[Mailman-Users] Need a patch written for 2.1 for post-only access.
I'm not a Python programmer but I need a patch written to add a feature that
someone had written a patch for in version 2.0.
The patch called a post-only patch allowed me to create a list called
post-only and members of this list were allowed to post to all other lists.
I am the systems administration for the Electronic Frontier Foundation
(http://www.eff.org). We are currently running 2.0 with this patch. The reason
we need it is because we are running about 65 internal lists and several of our
members have multiple email addresses they post from. The burden of adding
several hundred alieases and maintaining them across this many lists would be
too much to deal with. I have upgraded to 2.1 on my own personal server and I
feel that it would greatly benefit EFF to upgrade to 2.1. But - I can not do it
until I have this patch.
I am therefore asking that someone out there write this patch. If you write it -
I will publicly thank you in our newsletter that goes out to about 30,000 of our
members. I offer 15 minutes of fame, and - you'll be helping us get important
work done. EFF relies heavilly on Mailman.
Below is the code for the current patch for 2.0. It looks to me that doing this
for 2.1 would be trivial for someone who knew what they were doing. I would
REALLY appreciate it if someone were to volunteer to do this. Alternatively - I
would be willing to pay someone out of my own pocket - and donate the code back
to the public - if I can't find someone to do it for free.
Thanks in Advance
Marc Perkel

[Mailman-Users] Feedback on Mailman 2.1
Often the programmers and the development team overlook things in upgrading because they don't have the same experience as the end user. I want to point out such a case to you so you can fix 2.1. As a 2.0.11 user I did not need the list mailman and didn't have one. Thus when I upgraded it mostly worked. And it took a lot of work to figure out what I missed. Perhaps the install/upgrade should create this list or at least there should be some sort of error or better documentation. Just wanted to give you a heads up on this to improve this fine product. Also - there used to be a post-only patch that allowed members of the post-only list to post to all other lists. I very much need this feature in 2.1 so that I can upgrade the lists at the Electronic Frontier Foundation.
