[Mailman-Users] Configuration question..
Hi - I have recently taken over a webpage that was moved to Wix (which does not offer email accounts) while opting to keep email at the original host - Hostgator. The domain is blpoa.com and is working properly for web and email. The email is on gator3227.hostgator.com Mailing lists are another story however. When I provide http://gator3227.hostgator.com/mailman/listinfo/members_blpoa.com page to people to subscribe, Mailman returns http://blpoa.com/mailman/confirm/members_blpoa.com (and a confirmation key). The problem is that when this link is clicked - it sends the user to Wix - and simply displays the webpage. The sign up process can not be completed. I have searched all over but can not seem to find an answer. Changing *host_name *to gator3227.hostgator.com made no difference. We're using Mailman 2.1.17.

You need to set the list's web_page_url attribute to 'http://gator3227.hostgator.com/mailman/'. Unfortunately, you can't set this via the web admin GUI. There are several ways to set it, but they all require access to a command shell on the host which you probably don't have. Possibly you can convince hostgator support to do this for you. Perhaps the most straightforward way to do this on hostgator's cPanel Mailman is something like: #!bin/sh cd /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman file=`mktemp` echo 'web_page_url=http://gator3227.hostgator.com/mailman/' $file bin/config_list -i $file members_blpoa.com rm $file -- Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.netThe highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

When mailman checks if this sender is registered, I'm assuming (sorry for
the phpesque here):
if (in_array($sender, $registered_users))
Well before doing this check, the registered_users array could be walked
through
foreach($registered_user as $user) {
$user = preg_replace('/(.*)+.*(@.*)/', '/$1$2/', $user);
}
I have already given my opinion on this in another thread, but I note
that the above is not really correct. I think it's more complicated
than that. It is possible under the RFCs that the addresses
part0+pa...@example.com and part0+pa...@example.com belong to
different people.

[Mailman-Users] Configuration Question: Regarding mailfilter based email addresses
Sorry if the subject is not quite clear, but I have a question on configuring mailman. I set up a list for a group I'm apart of, and one person uses easier to filter on email addresses. I guess I'll jump to the example it'll make sense then Suppose I had an email: per...@world.com However, for the purpose of mailman-users list I want to register my email as: person+mmus...@world.com person%2bmmus...@world.com As we all (or at least most may) know, the +tag format described in RFC3696 (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3696) allows for this format. However mailman, doesn't. Since the registered user person+mmusers exists and is all good, when person sends a message to the list it gets bounced. So my question is: how can I configure mailman to allow person to post when he registered as person+mmusers Thanks! -- Dave -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9

So my question is: how can I configure mailman to allow person to post when he registered as person+mmusers I'd probably use list_members, diff, awk, and with_list as a cron'd job. (or list_members file.new, diff file.new against file: if there are changes; pass the appropriate localpart plus an appropriate wildcard regexp [1]via awk to an outfile, and feed the outfile to with_list assaulting 'accept_these_nonmembers', or if no changes, bail out). I've not got anything written for that purpose, but it shouldn't take too long to work out a quick script to do that. Saying that it shouldn't take too long does assume some knowledge of scripting, and awk, not always the friendliest ways. And, natch, does require the abilitity to run/create cronjobs on the machine where Mailman's installed/accessible to. An easier option may be to wildcard accept people's domains, but that could be rather pointless, say with non-(personal|vanity|corporate) domains and en-masse email hosting providers (gmail, hotmail, c) [1] http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users@python.org/msg51929.html may be a good starting point. -- ``Foot-and-mouth believed to be first virus unable to spread through Microsoft Outlook'' (spoof headline) -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9

My (sub-optimal) solution was to subscribe both person and person+mmusers to the mailing list. I have person subscribed, but set to not receive deliveries, for the sole purpose of recognizing when I send emails from person. I don't know if it is still the case, but last I messed with this, this was the only trivial solution that I found.

[Mailman-Users] Configuration Question
Greetings. I'm a bit new to Mailman, as I've yet to actually install it on anything. We currently have a majordomo server that's aging, and I'd prefer to replace it with Mailman for a number of reasons. Is there any reason I can't run Mailman on our outbound SMTP server, or would I want to locate it somewhere else? I'd like to avoid giving it its own dedicated box if at all possible, but I also don't want it to complicate the sending of generic mail, either in terms of hostnames or in overhead. FreeBSD 6.1 and Postfix are the relevant pieces.

Well, a lot will depend on your specific mail server and mailing list configuration, but I certainly don't see any reason why you can't run them both on the same machine. I think that this is the most typical type of installation, anyway. -- Brad Knowles, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trend Micro has announced that they will cancel the stop.mail-abuse.org mail forwarding service as of 15 November 2006.

To Whom It May Concern: I'm trying to get my mailman configuration correct, but I'm having trouble selecting the right options. More or less, I need to configure the list to allow anyone to post and then receive a notice saying that the post was sent to the 'Support Team'. Only those people whom I have subscribed manually will receive the message, but most importantly, this message will forward directly to the list without requiring moderator approval. I'm trying to set this up for users to forward trouble tickets directly to our staff of volunteers. Any ideas? -- Justin W.

[Mailman-Users] configuration question
I inherited an installation of Mailman, v. 1.1. I can set up a new list and subcribe. When I am asked for confirmation, I click on the link to reply and get the message: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Command died with status 2: /usr/local/mailman/mail/wrapper mailcmd manouche So, I went in and ran configure again (without any switches) and got the same result. So, I checked my syslog and it gives this message: Mailman mail-wrapper: Failure to exec script. WANTED gid 12345, got gid 60001. (Reconfigure to take 60001?). So, I ran configure again with the switch: --with-mail-gid=12345. In my group file, the mailer (Postfix) is 12345 and nobody is 60001. The Docs say that the default for with-cgi-gid is nobody. So, what next? I see in the Docs that I don't have to be Root to install Mailman, only to set permissions. However, I have to log in as Root to run configure.
