If you set archive_private to private on the lists Archiving
Options page in the admin web interface, the archive will only be
available to list members who log in with their list pasword. The
archive links will be of the form
http://mail.python.org/mailman/private/mailman-developers/, and the
'pipermail' links won't work.
  


It might also be a very good idea to set up an IP address restriction 
for the pipermail directory tree in httpd.conf to restrict access to 
your internal network.

Is Ubuntu using SELinux?  If so, you'll probably need to use audit2allow
to create aplicy to allow it to read the archives.

I prefer to use sync_members rather than remove_members and add_members.
~ With sync_members you need only keep the list of who should be on the
list.  When you run it, mailman will remove those currently on the list
who are not in your file and add those from the file who are not on the
list.  This works well when using a separate system to keep track of
subscriptions or generating your subscription list from some other database.

In this example, you'd create a file called dailylist-members.txt that
contains the list of email addresses that should be on the list.

I'd recommend the following command:

~   /usr/lib/mailman/bin/sync_members -g=no -w=no -a=no -f
dailymail-members.txt dailymail



For full usage info, use /usr/lib/mailman/bin/sync_members -h

It would be helpful to know what operating system your website is
running and whether you have shell and root access.

 Apologies if it's in the FAQ I did look though.

Here's the basic outline:

Extract a list of member email addresses.

 /usr/local/mailman/bin/sync_members -g=no -w=no -d=no -a=no -f
file_of_email_addresses list_name_here

The list is set up so confirmation of subscription is required (and we
never confirm when someone tries).

We run this process at the top of every hour.  Users
subscribe/unsubscribe through our member services profiler, not through
he list itself.

 Is there a way to generate a report that will tell me how many emails a

 So if the list has 400 members and it only has four emails a week sent 
 to it, no big deal. But I want to see a list that has traffic on it like 
 this one or something in the lines of 100 emails per day because of the 
 level of activity.
 
 So how can I tell how many messages were sent through list X?

Use mmdsr. It's in the contrib directory under your mailman install.  I
run it from cron at 23:59 every night and get a daily report of list
traffic.

[Mailman-Users] Footers and Outlook: Looking for patch updated to 2.1.9

I need to have Outlook compatible footers (i.e., inline) and found a
patch for 2.1.5 here:

http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-developers/2005-February/017850.html

It appears there have been significant changes between 2.1.5 and 2.1.9.
Has anyone updated this for 2.1.9?
