[Mailman-Users] Upgrade Mailman 2.1.13 to 2.1.16
Hi All, We are running Mailman 2.1.13 (on Ubuntu) and have been for some time. Recently the SPAM bots have been hitting our subscription addresses so hard the bounces have tripped the filters at Microsoft and blocked a couple of lists addresses until I get them to unblock them. It looks like an upgrade to 2.1.16 might go some way to mitigate this. Unfortunately, Mailman has been running so well for so long, I have forgotten most of what I did to install it in the first place :( Can anyone point me at a good tutorial on how to upgrade from 2.1.13 to 2.1.16? Thanks very much.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Response: 450 Host down
Hi Joni, Sounds like your incoming mail server for your Mailman System is either not reachable or not responding to your outgoing server when you send the message. You don't mention if they are separate systems or domains so I can't make any other suggestions at this time. I would try opening a command prompt on your sending system and trying to manually contact the SMTP server on your Mailman System by telnetting to your Mailman SMTP server on port 25 and sending a message that way. This may give you more information.

[Mailman-Users] Customizing Mailman's Web Pages
Hello, I am trying to customize Mailman's pages to match our website. One of the things I am trying to do is limit the width of the tables and pages (easy enough on the HTML pages). I have found how to edit htmlformat.py and htmlformatter.py to adjust table and horizontal rule widths and change the alignment of the footer logos to center, but I am having trouble figuring out how to center the text links that appear between the horizontal rule and the mailman logos. Can anyone help please? Martin T.

[Mailman-Users] Index page for mailman
Hello, As a new user to Linux and Mailman (using ver 2.1.5 w Apache 1.3.3 and Debian Sarge w Exim4) I was pleased to be able to get it up and running without too much list searching and head scratching. I have a couple of questions though: I would like to have a redirect page send people to mydomain.com/mailman/listinfo if they inadvertently arrive at mydomain.com/mailman/ but I can't figure out where to put that page on the server (right now you get a forbidden error). Second question: If I want to change the look and feel to match my site, can I edit the html files in /var/lib/mailman/templates/en so that all list pages look the same (mainly school logos and table widths), or will that break something elsewhere.

RE: [Mailman-Users] From field displayed by MS Outlook
We use Outlook 2002 and all the messages I receive (from this and our own lists) have the from field correctly reported as the sender. Either something has been changed in Outlook 2003 or there is a machine configuration problem either on the recipients machine or the senders.

RE: [Mailman-Users] Intro/Question About Attachements
Hi Croc: I think I am right in saying that the attachment you see is what happens when someone sends an RTF or HTML formatted email to the list and the list is set to send text emails; it attaches the signature file to the email. I could be wrong, I'm no expert, but experiment with changing the mail format of both the sender and the list and see what happens (and let me know when you find out g).

I am new to the list. I run a couple of Mailman driven mailing lists. I am baffled by some of the features/options. I joined this list because I am hoping to have some things simplified for me. And who knows :), maybe I will be of help to others. Todays guestion is about attachments. It seems when subscribers send email to the list they have an attachment. It shows up as something like ATT00019.txt(280 B) Inside the attachment is the list name, the email address to write to and the address of the info page for the list. I look forward to learning more about how the program works and getting to know some of you.

[Mailman-Users] Customizing Listinfo page
Hello: I am new to Linux and mailman (using Debian distro, Apache 2.0.48, Exim and Mailman 2.0.11). I managed to get everything installed and configured with the help of this list and a friend g but I have two questions. 1. What do I need to edit to customize the main listinfo page (I have been able to find and edit the individual list info pages but the main one eludes me)? 2. When I click on the Archive link for a list I get page not found; is this because it is a brand-new list and there is no archive or do I have to create a page (permissions and aliases for archives seem OK)?
