[Mailman-Users] Welcome messages
Question about welcome message options. If I have my welcome message option under General Options turned off, it doesn't send out welcome messages. Period. Even if I say to do so on the mass subscription page. I thought the individual subscription options would override what you have under general options, not the other way around. Is it supposed to work like this or do I have a problem?

In this case, the mass subscribe process calls the SendSubscribeAck method in Deliverer.py to send the welcome, but SendSubscribeAck erroneously checks the list setting and doesn't send the welcome if the list setting is Off. This check needs to be removed from SendSubscribeAck. I'll fix it for the next release. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED] The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

[Mailman-Users] Welcome messages
Hello there, I am using your Mailmain service as a newsletter/announcement facility. I have checked the FAQ page http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showfile=faq03.011.htp which talks about customising the welcome messages txt page so that subscribers don¹t get informed of posting and password information. It explains I need to create a directory lists/yourlist/en and copy templates/subscribeack.txt to it. I am using Mailman online so would like to know how do I get access to the directories, for creating and editing. I am slightly confused by the FAQ explanation. Also, is there a file I can edit for the subscription confirmation email? Hope you can help.

You need command line (i.e. shell) access or possibly FTP access to the machine on which Mailman is installed with sufficient permissions to create the required files and probably change their owner and group. If you don't have this or know what it means, you have to talk to the people responsible for installing/maintaining your Mailman. Also, is there a file I can edit for the subscription confirmation email? It is analagous to the subscribeack.txt template - its name is verify.txt. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED] The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

Have a look at $MAILMAN_HOME/messages/two-letter lanuguage code/LC_MESSAGES/mailman.po After modifiying that, run msgfmt -o mailman.mo mailman.po in the directory, where the modified mailman.po file resides in. I've personalized welcome messages for each list(creating a LANG directory into every LIST directory and having there my personal templates). But I can't find where is the subject for welcome messages, could anyone help me? Don't if you also can adjust the locale messages on a per list base. Would be fine to know for me, too.

Hi, I am admin for a set of small lists between 20 and 300 members. As I tried to improve the welcome message it became too long and I wondered if there was a way that there could be several automated messages that would go out at day 1 day 3 and day 5 for example. Is this possible? Del -- Mailman-Users maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users
