Has anyone out there put together and scripts that might extract out owners and subscribers to a list. Where you could see all the list and all their subscribers in one place.We have a group of list here that not everyone is on, but they are closely related to the lists, and someone had put together just an excel spreadsheet with links to see who was on the list. This is a very cumbersome process. The need for this type of a list is used several ways, as in if a user is on one list they may not be put on a new list so they look at this list. Some users need to look up a person to see if they will receive the information. Just somehting that user have gotten used to.

It will still try 'crypt' and 'md5' on the supplied password if 'sha' doesn't match, and if it gets a 'crypt' or 'md5' match, it will migrate the encrypted password to 'sha'.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Password addon
I am sorry I was not very clear.One of our issues is the password needed for user to unsubscribe. It will be a big change at this time from what we are using (Listproc). Someone seems to think there is some addon that will disable this? The other issue is that we are used to being able to look at the config file and see the password. The complication is that multiple list owners share a single administrator password --so if one owner forgets the passwored, if we can't look it up for them, then a reset would cause every other owner on the list to NOT know the current password. -Original Message- From: Mark Sapiro [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 26, 2007 3:53 PM To: Melinda Gilmore; mailman-users@python.org Subject: Re: [Mailman-Users] Password addon Melinda Gilmore wrote: Does anyone know of a mailman addon that will disable user passwords.

In the sense of allowing anyone to change a user's options or visit private archives without any form of authentication, or with some authentication method other than a password? If that's what you mean, then I'm not aware of anything. If you just mean not telling users about the password and not sending reminders, you can set a list to not send reminders (General Options-send_reminders), and you can edit the list welcome message and listinfo templates to remove the password references. Does anyone know if this issues was resolved in 2.1 I don't understand what 'resolution' you're looking for. Can anyone just explain the new password for users and administrators. I am looking on the website, but could use a knowledgeable persons explanation. Have you seen http://www.list.org/mailman-member/index.html? If you are asking why there is a password, the password is required to authenticate the user before allowing the user to change her subscription options via web or email, obtain a private roster available to list members via web or email or view private archives. If the user doesn't want to do any of these things, she doesn't need to know a password. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED]The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

[Mailman-Users] ports
I looked somewhat in the archives but am not finding information on what port mailmanctl listens on. Or this whole email may show my ignorance on the setup. But what I am trying to do is setup a warning in our nocol if mailmanctl is down. I need a port number.

[Mailman-Users] Questions on mail spools
I need to migrate from listproc to mailman. In trying to look at some of the configurations. We need to find out when an individual list may have rec'd mail. Is there a individual mail log for each list like in listproc. Or maybe I am looking at this in the wrong way.I can look in the postfix mail, but not by individual list. We would also like to be able to see when the last time a list has been changed.

[Mailman-Users] no subscribers
Help! We just had a strange thing happen, a lists subscribers were all removed and no mail was going out. If there are not subscribers where does the mail go? I have looked in all the logs and it looks like the mail was sent. However, it seems to go into la la land. User wants to know if the mail is kept somewhere where we can retrieve. Not where that mail is? Any guidance would be appreciated.

[Mailman-Users] Email subscription
I have been searching the archives and have not been able to find my answer. I just want to be able to subscribe by email. Does not seem to be working. Do you send to [EMAIL PROTECTED] blah blah and then subscribe. Is there something else that needs to be running on the machine. I just have a simple set up with Mailman 2.0 and sendmail. Any direction would be greatly appreciated.

[Mailman-Users] Question about autorespond
I want to set up an auto respond if a user request to be subscribed to a list, there will be a message sent to them to verify that they want to subscribe and then they will be subscribed. Has anyone attempted this?
