[Mailman-Users] Mass Subscribe Digest members

2008-10-06 Thread Mel Sojka
I know it must be somewhere in the wiki but have yet to find it and 
google went everywhere else. I have a long list of both regular and 
digest members how can I mass subscribe the digest members or even 
better both combined?

[Mailman-Users] Spam to list owners

2008-02-01 Thread Mel Sojka
Folks I have an old server that is being hosted for a client. Because of 
Phyton version it is running mailman 2.1.5 under sendmail. For some 
unknown reason there seems to be a massive amount of spam going to the 
list owner. Is there some method in this version to stop this abuse. 
There are multiple web sites on this server so the list-owner is in the 
Virt User table for sendmail.
Thanks
Mel

Re: [Mailman-Users] Virtusertable with 2.1.7

Well I dumped the maillist-admin Gosh it is still in the aliases for 
2.1.7 since I have created several list. I guess the virtuser for 
maillist-owner should be maillist-owner also. Made those changes see it 
that will clear up the little headache.

Well I am getting errors on incoming to the bounces aliases for the two 
list that were upgraded. In 2.0 I had the list , the admin, request and 
the owner (pointing to admin) in the virtusertable.  I have all 10 of 
the aliases for both these list in /etc/mail/aliases and newaliases of 
course was run. What appears to be happening is when a post is made the 
return from an old bad address is causing the problem, mail is going out 
fine.  Just filling up the postmasters mail box.

[Mailman-Users] Virtual Host problem with 2.1.7

2006-01-22 Thread Mel Sojka
I am moving a couple list from a server that was running version 2.0.8.  
I have got the list in place and the archives in place ran bin/withlist 
-l -r fix_url listname -u  This may be where I messed up since I used 
the virtual hostname (should I have used the default host name?) But 
whatever when I attempted to start mailman I get 
add_vituralhost(virtual1.tld, mail.vurtual1.tld)
NameError: name 'virtual1.tld' is not defined. Where did I miss the boat.
I do have my mm_cfg.py configured

Re: [Mailman-Users] Problem with 2.1.7

2006-01-08 Thread Mel Sojka
Well I really don't know what happened. I think I am going to clean out 
the crontab entry dump the mailman directory and start from scratch. 
Never eveh had this sort of thing sendmail says it sending the post but 
they are going nowhere. It won't even notify the owner on newlist. I 
have six server running 2.1.5 and this one was running 2.1.6 but I need 
to get out all traces and go again, the box will not go into production 
as scheduled but such is life. Thanks Mark but the FAQ is a bit out of 
date Since it has been many years since mailman had anything in the 
/home directory that had to do with the program.
FYI Slackware 10.2
Sendmail 8.13.4 no smrsh

[Mailman-Users] Problem with 2.1.7

2006-01-08 Thread Mel Sojka
I just a few minutes ago finished upgrading from 2.1.6 to 2.1.7. 
Everything went fine mail coming in and being posted but not being sent 
out. I added a new user one on my other ads an it is not sending out 
susbscription notifies. 2.1.6 was working fine and never had this sort 
of problem with mailman all the way back to the 1 versions?? What did I 
miss. Using sendmail configured it proper mail-gid and cgi-gid. What the 
deal? Point me to the faq or whatever.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Two questions

2005-01-29 Thread Mel Sojka
Just a suggestion folks. I have been using mailman since it was the new 
kid on the block and it is truly a fantastic package, but since series 
2.1 at least once a week the VIRTUAL_HOSTS issue hits the users list.  
Getting ready to move a bunch of list from 2.0.8 and 2.0.13 to new 
servers running 2,1,15 and much to my surprise there is no documentation 
in the distro deal directly with this problem. Maybe it is time for 
someone to create a VIRTUAL_HOSTS howto , even the notes in the FAQ are 
a bit vague.  If nothing else this may make life a bit easier for the 
answer guys.

Well the simple way would use elm. The -s function would allow you to
send a text message from a home directory. Create a user called monthly
in cron make an entry for the proper day and time. That would be a cron
entry for user monthly. Then elm -s the text file.

[Mailman-Users] RPM Upgrade

2002-05-13 Thread Mel Sojka

Ok folks I have a box here on the network running Red Hat 7.0 it has Mailman
2.0 installed. The admininstrator is having a few problems with admin request.
I have another server using 2.08 and does not have any of these little nagging
problems. 

My question is what is necessary to upgrade via RPM, The other servers are
Slackware and the upgrades have been no problem. Will the Red Hat RPM for 2.08
break to older version. Before I get hassled I figured I would ask!
