[Mailman-Users] Upgrade from 2.1.5 to 2.1.9
I could not find much documentation on upgrading from mailman version 2.1.5 to version 2.1.9. I want to make sure that it is as simple as backing up my current install then run 'configure' and 'make install'. The new will overwrite the old and convert what needs to be converted; would this be a correct statement? Pati M "UNIX is user friendly. It's just picky about who it's friends with."

[Mailman-Users] Migration Help
I have mailman version 2.1.5-33 installed on a RedHat Linux ES4.0 server. I now need to migrate my lists and archives from an NT4 server running L-Soft Listserv 1.8e over to my mailman installation. I have been searching the site and archives but am not finding documentation that can assist me. Can some help me to obtain the documentation for this migration? Thanks much.

[Mailman-Users] Importing data

Re: [Mailman-Users] Importing data
Brad, Thank you for the quick response. I am going to attempt to import a list of subscribers as well as the archives from my L-Soft listserv application. I think I may manually add the list of subscribers. The archives will be a different story. I am going to have to figure out what format it comes out of listserv first; then switch the format to mbox so that it can be added to mailman. If you, or anyone else, has any insight into switching from listserv format to mbox format that, too, would be appreciated. Pati Moss Unix Systems Administrator "UNIX is user friendly.

Can someone point > me in the direction of some steps or procedures to get this done? What kind of data? Lists of subscribers? Using the web admin interface, go to "Membership Management..." and then to "Mass Subscribe". You can select a file to upload (with one subscriber e-mail address per line) or you can cut-n-paste that kind of information. Archives are imported in 7th edition "mbox" format, as described in the FAQ Wizard. Importing anything else is much more manual in nature. So far as I know, there are no tools that have been developed for the express purpose of importing Listserv format mailing lists into Mailman. But, it shouldn't be too hard to write Python programs to do that, and the community would certainly welcome your efforts in this regard. -- Brad Knowles, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." -- Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790), reply of the Pennsylvania Assembly to the Governor, November 11, 1755 SAGE member since 1995.

[Mailman-Users] Importing and the size of archives
I am running mailman version 2.1.5-33 on a RedHat Linux ES4.0 server. I am attempting to import an archive into one of my lists. I am using the following syntax: /var/mailman/bin/arch --wipe documentumdevelopers Which seems to import the file; However, for some reason one of the messages is getting cut off. The remainder of the cut-off message is being recreated as an archive with today's date. The next message in the queue, of this archive, is imported with no problems. Is there a message length setting, or something like that, that could be causing this message to be cut off? Pati Moss Unix Systems Administrator "UNIX is user friendly.

[Mailman-Users] Searchable Archives
I am running mailman version 2.1.5-33 on a RedHat Linux ES4.0 server. I would like to make my archives searchable. I found some information in the Mailman FAQ Wizard that pointed me to a patch. Note: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?query=htdig&querytype=simple&ca sefold=yes&req=search (Patch number: htdig-2.1.5-0.1.patch.gz ) I downloaded the patch, but couldn't find any doc on how to apply this patch to an already existing installation. My Mailman install was done via an RPM, so I do not have a "build" directory. Is there another way to apply this patch or are there other means by which to make my archives searchable? Thanks.

[Mailman-Users] Namazu and mailman
Does anyone have experience with getting Namazu to work with Mailman? I am running mailman version 2.1.5-33 on a RedHat Linux ES4.0 server. I used this documentation to install and configure Namazu: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2004-June/037580.html I made an edit to archtocnombox.html rather than archtoc.html. This made the search box appear on my page. However, when I would try to do a search I would get an error because it was not finding/recognizing my rc file. I'm not sure what else to tweak to make this work. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks. Pati Moss Unix Systems Administrator "UNIX is user friendly. It's just picky about who it's friends with."
