[Mailman-Users] Footer shows as a txt attachment instead of appended in body
I have a mailman discussion group with some text in the "Footer added to mail sent to regular list members " However, some mail software does not show that added text. Specifically, Outlook has it as a file attachment AT01.txt instead of appending it to the body of the email.

[Mailman-Users] munging the To: line?
I've searched the archives and the FAQs; if I've missed something please point me to it. I've got From: munging turned on, so posts to a list I administer come "from" addresses like John Smith via mylist <myl...@example.com> Frequently, list users will post to the list by replying to a previous message, and I'll end up getting a message with a To: header like To: John Smith via mylist <myl...@example.com> and it goes out to the list with that To: header. Since this can be confusing, I'd like to munge the To: line as it comes through so it ends up saying To: My List <myl...@example.com> Is there a way to do this through standard configuration options (and how?), or do I need to write a handler? -- Joe Pfeiffer 575.525.2764 (H) 1440 Tierra del Sol Dr 575.496.3501 (C) Las Cruces, NM 88007-5548 -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
Re: [Mailman-Users] Newsreader access.
Hi, Mark. I have thought about an alternative solution that might be simpler and more efficient (if available) than using a news server and newsgroups. Are you aware of any Wordpress plug-in that would integrate with Mailman ? In other words, Mailman messages would be exchanged between Mailman and the Wordpress website with the aid of this plug-in so that members would have the option to read and post messages to one or more of their groups using this website instead of e-mail ?

Re: [Mailman-Users] Newsreader access.
Edgar, I am looking for a webforum as a second alternative to access. I have found (much to my surprise) that a large majority of users have trouble with even the simplest aspects of e-mail use despite the fact that e-mail is easy to use and technology that has been around now for several decades. I have instructed users to create subfolders in the mail clients and use filters to redirect mail from our mailing lists to these folders. They can't seem to do it and many complaint that e-mail from the mailing lists clutter their inboxes. I have also suggested that they create a second e-mail account to be used with our mailing lists but many find it either difficult or don't have the time to do it. With this in mind I would like to create another method of access in addition to e-mail so that users have an option. I personally find e-mail one of the easiest and simplest technologies to use but I would like to accommodate those that feel differently. I have found a few Wordpress plug-ins for Mailman but the ones I have found are just for subscription. I would like to find a plug-in that would duplicate the content of the mailing lists to a web forum on the Wordpress sites so users would have the option to use it in place of e-mail. Thank you, Joe.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Newsreader access.
Hi, Mark. In the case you describe the server would send posts to the newsgroups and readers would access these newsgroups to see the posts. So posts are sent to the list using each list's e-mail address and then 'copied' to the newsserver. What happens when readers wish to reply to what they read on their newsreaders ? Would they send their reply to the newsgroup or have to send their reply to the list itself using the list's e-mail address ? This part is not very clear to me. Thank you in advance, Joe.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Newsreader access.
Mark, This represents a serious potential risk. One of the problems I've noticed over the years with most Usenet groups is that they tend to attract a lot of spam and non-relevants posts. In this case, assuming I open the gate and allow posts from the Newsgroups to be posted to the list even by non-members, is there a way to have all posts from the Newsgroups set to moderation so that I get the chance to review them first before they are posted to the lists ? Assuming there is, would moderation be set only for posts coming from the Newsgroups or would it be set for all posts independent on whether they come from the Newsgroups or from e-mail ?

Look at the settings in the web admin UI Mail-News gateways section. You have separate controls for sending from Mailman to the news group and from the news group to Mailman.

Assuming there is, would moderation be set only for posts coming from the Newsgroups or would it be set for all posts independent on whether they come from the Newsgroups or from e-mail ? Mailman's usenet gateway is from another era. Originally, all posts arriving via the usenet gateway were exempt from member moderation and *_these_nonmembers and generic_nonmember_action actions. This was changed in Mailman 2.1.17 per https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1252575 to apply member_moderation_action to a usenet gated post from a moderated member and to apply *_these_nonmember actions to usenet gated posts from nonmembers matching one of those filters. This was deliberately not extended to generic_nonmember_action because it would be too disruptive to existing lists. However, you can effectively accomplish the same thing since you can put regexp patterns in *_these_nonmembers, so if your list's generic_nonmember_action is, e.g., hold, and you also want to hold all nonmember posts that come via usenet, just put say ^.*$ in hold_these_nonmembers and every nonmember post will be held regardless of source except for those from users matching accept_these_nonmembers. This is not completely flexible, since the *_these_nonmember tests are applied in order (accept, hold, reject, discard) to all posts from nonmembers before generic_nonmember_action, so for example, if you put ^.*$ in discard_these_nonmembers, all nonmember posts will be discarded before ever checking generic_nonmember_action. -- Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.netThe highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

Because of the nature of a shared hosting environment, typical mailman users would not have access to the mailman server itself in order to make any customizations such as searchable archives, etc. However my company hosts over a 1000 mailman lists on our cPanel servers and our list clients are very happy with the arrangement. But YMMV. If you have not required backend access before to your mailman server then I would think you will not have any problems utilizing a cPanel enabled mailman service. I would be interested in hearing some details of your IT specialist's reservations of cPanel and mailman. Brian Carpenter EMWD.com Providing Cloud Services and more for over 15 years.

[Mailman-Users] Question about web and mail hosting in Mailman.
Hello, everyone. I am transferred the website of my Mailman related domain to a third party hosting service but plant to host the Mailman list itself with a different service. I have been told that Mailman can not reside in one server while the website associated with the domain it uses resides in another. In my case the domain.com website is hosted by one service while the Mailman list and a few e-mail associated with the domain (i...@domain.com and ad...@domain.com) are hosted by another service (by service I mean different servers in different geographical locations). I have been told that this solution is not possible as I will not be able to access Mailman administrative interface through my browser (as in www.domain.com/mailman/admin) since the website will be in a different server and not the one where Mailman is located. Is this true or is possible to have this type of configuration with mailman lists and website hosted by different servers ?

[Mailman-Users] Question about Mailman hosting.
Hello, everyone. A while ago I posted a question to this group about some problems I had been experiencing with my server and was recommended several Mailman hosting services by some of the members who replied to my original post either here or privately. I have decided to follow this advice in order to save the time and effort it has become for me to maintain my server and the Mailman software up-to-date. What has been your experience with hosting services ? Have you had any problems and what should I watch out for ? Are there any hosting services you would recommend ? Thank you in advance for your responses.

[Mailman-Users] Subscription notifications - how to turn it off.
Hello, everyone. I have decided to transfer my mailman lists to a third party Mailman host. What options do I have to transfer all subscriptions to the new server ? Is there a way to export the files and then transfer to the host's server ? Assuming I am not able to do this (I am currently experiencing problems with the hard drive where the files are located) and have to manually enter all subscriptions (there are nearly 500 members total) is there a way to prevent subscription notices from being sent out again ? Each subscriber has already been sent a notification when they were subscribed and I want to make this transition smooth be avoiding subscription notices from being sent again. Thank you in advance.

[Mailman-Users] Rejected or bounced messages.
Hi, everyone. I have received several messages returned as rejected that were sent by my Mailman server as the 1st of the month subscription reminder. These messages contain a technical explanation about the reason for their rejection I don't understand but it seems to me it has something to do with the way the messages are formatted. I received several of these messages from a total of nearly 350 members we host at this moment. I won't post the messages and their entire content but just some of the reasons for their rejection.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Questions on Mailman list administration.
Hi, Martin. Thank you for your help and reply. Unfortunately I am not well trained and skilled on the use of Unix (or in my case Apple's version of it). Any admin I do must be done using the browser interface available in Mailman. Will all the answers to my questions be dependent on command line use ? One more question I forgot to ask on my original post: Is there a way to configure Mailman so that when users select 'reply' the message goes to the list and when they select 'reply all' the message goes to both the list and the poster wrote the message they are replying to ?

Re: [Mailman-Users] Reply e-mail options.
Thank you Mark and Stephen for your help and replies. I made the appropriate changes and informed all subscribers how the 'Reply' and 'Reply All' options work. Joe.

Turnbull step...@xemacs.org wrote: Joe writes: I would like to have mail addressed to the list with a simple 'Reply' and addressed to both the list and the sender with a 'Reply All'. Can Mailman be configured to behave this way ? No. Replies are generated by subscriber-side mail clients, not by Mailman. Mailman *already* *by default* provides enough information for them to do what you suggest on simple replies[1] (and IMHO that should be default behavior!), and then Reply All would Just Work Right. But mostly they don't (in any configuration, let alone by default). As Mark explains, the Reply-To header can't be used because it breaks Reply All.[2] IIRC Mozilla Thunderbird and Sylpheed (and maybe Evolution) do this right. But trying to convince subscribers to change their MUAs is like trying to get addicts to give up their drugs. :-( A few other clients (Mutt, Emacs/Gnus) have a reply-to-list function, which often does the right thing (ie, fall back to reply-to-author if it can't figure out what list is meant). It is easier to get them to use the function if already present in their client, but that's quite a bit of work for somebody to find out what clients people are using and if they have the function. Footnotes: [1] The RFC 2369 List-Post header. [2] This is because the definition of Reply-To in the email standard is The *author* says he doesn't want replies to go to 'From', he wants you to use this address.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Reply e-mail options.
Hi, Mark. In the web admin interface on the General Options page under Reply-To: header munging set first_strip_reply_to to No and reply_goes_to_list to Poster. With these settings, a simple 'reply' will go to the sender or the sender's Reply-To; 'reply-all' will go to the sender, the list and any other explicit recipients of the post, and 'reply-list' if your MUA supports it will go to just the list.

[Mailman-Users] problems with mail robot -request
Dear Mailman-Users and Team, i am using mailman for a long time now and like for once to say thanks for the good work! A while ago we migrated the server and the lists. It comes that i recognized a problem. A mail to the mail robot mylist-requ...@mylist.domain goes straight to the moderation-queue and the user got a bounce that the mail is held for approval. Even when the moderator approves the mail - it is published to the list and not to the mail-robot. My first idea was that the migrated lists are buggy - but the same behaviour occurs after creating a new list. We are using virtualhosts and postfix as a mta. Any Ideas howto debug or which steps to take to get this problem solved are highly appreciated?

Sorry, I'm a little confused sorting out the distinction between moderators, the moderator flag, a moderated list, etc. Was my original description of my problem (wanting to remove the moderator flag) accurate in terms of the problem I'm trying to solve? I've been wondering if what I've been actually accomplishing in my command is just allowing people the ability to moderate other content - approving held messages. Are people that can do this moderators, and is the moderator flag used for defining who is a moderator, or who can post to a moderated list?

[Mailman-Users] Having a number of problems
I've been trying for weeks to get mailman up and running. Im very new to Linux, mailman, apache and all the MTA's. I've followed all the write up's but can never seem to get mailman to work correctly. Right now im at the point where if I create a newlist it will send an email to the administrator of that list (me) but the links (URLS) it sends in the email do not work (I get page not found errors). After fooling around and looking around I was able to access the web management part of mailman ( by total luck I was tooling around and in /var/mail/ i found an email that had the same URL on it and i copy and pasted it and it worked. It only works on the server in which mailman runs on) so I can administer my lists from there. The problem is I can mass subscribe a billion people and they actually receive the welcome to such and such list but they cant email that list. I don't know where the email goes. Afew days ago i was getting mailer daemon errors. I also cant access the links to that list as well. What am I missing here! I am using sendmail as my MTA Thanks in advnace!

Re: [Mailman-Users] Mailman archive -small problem
Thanks Mark, indeed you found the exact problem. A person before me installed mailman but didn't complete the task. I re-installed with a clean setup but I didn't/don't fully understand all the settings. in the mm_cfg.py file the setting for public archives was set to /pipermail/ This unfortunately was what the setting for the default_server.conf file was as well. I must have just assumed they were the same and correct, obviously not.

[Mailman-Users] problem: Message has implicit destination
Hello, Have any of you dealt with this problem of a message being held for moderator approval? I went to the Sender filters admin page and I added the sender address to the List of non-member addresses whose postings should be automatically accepted. But the messages are still being held for moderator approval. The reason given is: Message has implicit destination. What does this mean? Can I do anything about it? These messages are sent many times a day by a cron job on a UNIX server; so, it is truly a great inconvenience to have to approve them all the time.

Mark; Thanks again for all of the help and patience. In regards to this list actually being an announcement list...you're absolutely right and I'm now going through the link you provided. Here's what I now plan on doing, based on your suggestions/feedback and the information on the link you provided; - Create a new list. - Under the membership management page, I'll set the Additional Member Tasks to turn on the mod flag for all users. That way if anyone sends a msg to the list, including me...it will sit and wait in the queue until I release it. Which is nice, especially if I goof up and accidentally send it out. - Disable monthly password reminders. - Strip out the List footer that's automatically added to each message that's sent out. Other than what I've listed above, is their anything else that I might be missing? For example, since the goal here is for everyone to NOT know that they are on some sort of list...are their any other daily/monthly/occasional msgs that Mailman MIGHT send out to the list other than password reminders? Also, with this type of List and what I want to accomplish, how can 'automatic bounce-message processing' either help or hinder my goals? Thanks again for all of the help!

[Mailman-Users] Questions on 'List Renaming' Misc.
Regarding an earlier question on changing the headers; I guess something similar can be achieved by; - Changing the name of the list, to something less obvious - Enabling the 'Moderated' option for all users by default, so that way anyone that attempts to post to the list...will not be able to. It will sit in queue instead and wait for me to release it Does this sound ok? Is there a better way to achieve something like this? What are your thoughts? Also, can I easily change the name of the list from the Mailman UI or do I have to create a new one? One more thing, since I'm still a big n00be on email related stuff; What are the advantages of setting up a mailing list such as this, instead of copying and pasting tons of email addresses in the 'bcc' field? I've noticed that when I have done the 'copy paste' method, I get delivery failures/bounce messages, because I'm sending to way too many recipients. Is this one way how a mailing list provides a greater advantage? Just sending to one email address instead of many?

[Mailman-Users] Question about 'Footer' that is automatically added by MailMan Members List Info
Greetings All; I'm a band new user to MailMan and I have a few quick questions. 1.) Questions On Footer In a few test messages that I've sent out with MailMan, I notice that MailMan adds a footer, something like this: ___ %(real_name)s mailing list %(real_name)[EMAIL PROTECTED](host_name)s %(web_page_url)slistinfo%(cgiext)s/%(_internal_name)s Now in your FAQ, it does give some examples of variables that are used in order to generate the footer. My question is, if I want to totally edit the footer and possibly add let's say a jpeg/gif to it...is this possible? If so, how? If I want to completely strip out the footer, so it either shows no information or the footer is not even added...is this possible? If so, how? 2.) Questions On Members List Within the MailMan WebUI it allows me to view the Members List. I can also go to the specific WebUI for each specific Mailing List and view the member info there. My question is, is there a way to 'download' or 'export' this information in plain ascii/text format? Is this information already kept in a similar format somewhere in the MailMan directories? FYI, I have a VPS Server running Fedora-Core 2. I have full root/ssh access as well and I'm utilizing MailMan through the cPanel interface. Thanks ahead of time!

[Mailman-Users] Moving Mailman on MacOS X Servers?

RE: [Mailman-Users] Using topics vs. Additional Lists
Now I see that as the admin you can search for a user on the member management screen then click the hyperlinked email address for them. (I'm so used to seeing email addresses linked with mailto: that I don't consider it might actually go somewhere anymore.) Thanks for pointing that out. But, it would be very helpful to be able to query for a list of all members subscribed to a particular topic from the command line or elsewhere.

[Mailman-Users] Mailman-htdig bug or configuration error
Hello all, I have a fully functional installation of Mailman 2.1.4 (with patch #444884 for htdig integration) running on Mac OS X Server 10.3.3. The Mailman lists themselves work correctly, as does htdig by itself. On the TOC page for any list's archives, I get the Search box and indicator of when the index was last rebuilt, just as I should. However, when I perform a search on any term, I get the following: Traceback (most recent call last): File /usr/share/mailman/scripts/driver, line 87, in run_main main() File /usr/share/mailman/Mailman/Cgi/mmsearch.py, line 211, in main child.tochild.close() IOError: [Errno 32] Broken pipe Something tells me this may be due to some trivial configuration issue, such as an error in mm_cfg.py, but I'm stumped.

If you read the dependencies you will see that the box needs to have a Mail-server running on it (Sendmail or Postfix work just fine). You also need Apache (the web-server) configured and running - the standard configuration should work just fine. You will need Python version 2.2.x running on the box for the latest version of Mailman to work (version 2.1.1.). You should also make sure that your Linux server is defined properly in DNS and that it's host name resolves properly on the box as well as locally (use the hostname command to figure out what it thinks it's host name is). With all that in place and working (which is not a lot since most of that is standard), then you can download and install Mailman from source very easily. Down load Mailman from Sourceforge. It will come as a big file named something like: mailman_2.1.1.tar.gz Expand the file using the following command: tar -xzf mailman_2.1.1.tar.gz This will create a directory named mailman: cd mailman Now read the file INSTALL it will tell you to create a user on your system named mailman and a group on the system named mailman, and then it will give you two commands to run: ./configure make install You may need to add some switches to ./configure if you are running some odd variants of a Mail-server or web-server.

[Mailman-Users] Mailman not updating /etc/aliases properly
Hey there.. I'm new to the list, and I'm having some rather... Stupifying problems. I did the install, just as the INSTALL file told me to do: ./configure --with-cgi-gid=apache --with-mail-gid=mail However, when it's all done, mailman *WORKS*.. But the /etc/aliases file is not auto updated when I create lists. Any ideas on what could be wrong? I think the mail gid may be wrong.. Should I change it to something else, root maybe?

[Mailman-Users] getting rid of admin request notices
Hi, I'm not much of a programmer, but I did manage write a little python program that will zap pending requests and delete the held-msg messages. I would like to be able to turn off the notices when I remove the requests and the messages, but mailman continues to send the admin notices. The one good thing is that after I run the script and go to the admin request screen, I can click 'submit' once and mailman cleans up the database and recognizes that the requests are gone. Is there a flag that I change to stop the notices on my non-existent admin requests? I'm obviously missing a step here. Any help would be appreciated. I'm running 2.05.

Re: [Mailman-Users] setting up new list-Cobalt RaQ4
I'm just guess here (never used a RaQ system), but it oocurs to me that the RaQ sendmail config is probably set up for no local users. That is, for relaying mail only. It's primarily intended for network attached storage uses, right? So you probably need to force sendmail to attempt to do local delivery of the Mailman addresses. It's probably not looking at the aliases file at all, since it doesn't think that it's a final delivery point. joe On Saturday, October 6, 2001, at 10:50 PM, Paul wrote: More info I found while poking around my system: When I try to set up my first list-test, it's Sendmail on the RaQ that doesn't seem to want to cooperate. When you set up a list in Mailman, it outputs a few lines which you should put in /etc/aliases (/etc/mail/aliases on the RaQ) for Sendmail. They look something like this: test:|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper post test test-admin: |/home/mailman/mail/wrapper mailowner test test-request:|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper mailcmd test test-owner: test-admin So, I guess you're supposed to copy those into /etc/mail/aliases and run the command newaliases from root. Done. However, I got this in Mailman's log: Oct 06 19:15:32 2001 (600) All recipients refused: (553, '5.3.0 [EMAIL PROTECTED]... No such user here', '[EMAIL PROTECTED]') I have tried completely deleting the list test and re-creating it, and doing a full reboot of the server (several times) Then, I had the idea: Why not make an alias file for Mailman? Majordomo has its own alias file, found at /etc/mail/aliases.majordomo. Why not do the same for Mailman? So, I deleted the entries I put in /etc/mail/aliases, created the file (as root) /etc/mail/aliases.mailman, and put a line in sendmail.cf: O AliasFile=/etc/mail/aliases.mailman I ran newaliases and it processed aliases.mailman fine. However, Sendmail STILL DOES NOT want to link with Mailman! I get the same errors as before, even after a full reboot!!

Re: [Mailman-Users] configuration problem
Ok, now I'm getting somewhere with this mailman installation. I intstalled the mailman RPM on my laptop which has RH7.0 installed. I can now peruse the ../admin/testlist page. I couldn't do that with the RH7.1. So there's something about RH7.1 that prohibits mailman from working properly. One of the differences between RH7.1 and RH7.0 are some security tweaks. Figuring this one out is going to be a challenge for me since I'm no expert. If anyone gets mailman working on RH7.1 please let me, and the list know how you did it.
