[Mailman-Users] Setup problem with Mailman
Hi all, (cross posted to Macports-users and Mailman-users lists, as I'm not sure where the answer to the problem is more likely to come from) I upgraded a server the other day to Mac OS 10.7, and due to a new version of Macports required an uninstall/reinstall of Mailman. As seems to be the usual case, the new Mailman/Fetchmail install needs some tweaks to get it working right - the Dreaded Group Mismatch Error in Mailman, SSL required but configured --without-ssl in Fetchmail, etc... I've fought my way through all of those, but... Currently it's telling me that the location of the MDA, which in the previous Fetchmailrc file was /opt/local/libexec/mailman/mail/mailman and worked fine before the upgrade, is a directory which doesn't exist. And that's true, it doesn't. So, the question is, where did it move to? Where *should* Fetchmail be told that the Mailman MDA is? Thanks for relieving my frustration. -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://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: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
Re: [Mailman-Users] Setup problem with Mailman
Correction:
The problem below occurred because Mailman had run into an error and
hadn't installed that directory. I figured that one out and it's
installing again.
Now I'm back to a Group Mismatch error once again, and adding the
configure line
--with-mail-gid=staff
(and removing the line --with-mail-gid=${mmgroup} ) as suggested doesn't
fix it.
Next step? It seems I go through this every time I do an install of
Mailman...

We want to simplify thing by routing all -bounces -owner to a single email address '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' How do we do that? For -owner just set what e-mail address you want in the second field of each list's General Option page of the web admin GUI or set it when you create the list from the command line. My approach is to have a list called defadmin and have that as the owner address for lists we do not have administered individually; usually because none of the users associated with the list are either interested in the task or competent to perform it. We then just subscribe some lucky sys admins addresses to the defadmin list. For -bounces aliases you could simply redefine the per list aliases to whatever you want in your MTA aliases database. This alias redefinition could be automated but beware; if you direct all the per- list bounces to the same alias outside of Mailman you will lose Mailman's automated bounce processing which you probably do not want to do: see the Bounce Processing page of the web admin GUI.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Setup list to strip attachments?
Chas, I can't say what CPanel allows you to do or not do. FAQ 3.10 is about the Privacy Options admin web page. What you want is available from the Content Filtering admin web page. Hopefully CPanel allows you access to the same sort of thing. Here is the intro text explaining how Content Filtering works: Policies concerning the content of list traffic. Content filtering works like this: when a message is received by the list and you have enabled content filtering, the individual attachments are first compared to the filter types. If the attachment type matches an entry in the filter types, it is discarded. Then, if there are pass types defined, any attachment type that does not match a pass type is also discarded. If there are no pass types defined, this check is skipped. After this initial filtering, any multipart attachments that are empty are removed. If the outer message is left empty after this filtering, then the whole message is discarded. Then, each multipart/alternative section will be replaced by just the first alternative that is non-empty after filtering. Finally, any text/html parts that are left in the message may be converted to text/plain if convert_html_to_plaintext is enabled and the site is configured to allow these conversions. schuetzen wrote: Amazingly, apparently they got a new CPanel with mailman updated from 2.0.13 to 2.1.2 Jumped in to my test lists to start updating them and especially to comply with my pet peeve - having the lists set for NO attachments of any kind and for the lists being Plain text.

Regards Rod -- Rod Neep I'm probably not the ideal person to ask about this. I have the benefit of a backup server which I use to rehearse MM upgrades and correct problems before doing the real thing on our dedicated primary MM server. I need to do that as I use/maintain a number of MM upgrade patches and need to produce upgraded versions of those when new MM releases come out. I also use a Sendmail mailer (patch #644810) rather than maintaining a file of mail aliases. I guess one of the big changes from 2.0.13 to 2.1.1 is the revised mail aliases for each list and so I didn't have to deal with that. My own experience with the 2.0.13 to 2.1.1 upgrade was that at a basic level it was trouble free. I just read the INSTALL and UPGRADE documents and got on with it.. I tend to take the view that it has to be done and it will not get any easier by waiting. MM 2.1.1 has some nice extra features which I wanted the benefit of them. That said I only ran the beta versions of 2.1 on my backup machine on test; I'm not that keen to risk beta software for production use. I suggest a post to the mailman-users list asking about risk/experience on the upgrade to 2.1.1 will be more useful than any further comment from me.

[Mailman-Users] Setup problem w/email commands
Just installed Mailman v2.0.9 with Python v2.1.3 on FreeBSD, and I'm having difficulty enabling any active responses to email commands. For example: o posts to the list result in a copy being sent to the list owner only -- not to the subscribers o email subscribe requests result in a copy being sent to the list owner, but do not result in any server responses, i.e. subscriber does not receive a confirmation email, and is not shown on list of subscribers o email unsubscribe requests = same problem o email help requests = blank email response Suggestions??

[Mailman-Users] Setup MM2.1b2 ...outgoing goes to shunt dir.
I am trying to install Mailman-2.1b2 on a Gentoo Linux box that is running Apache and Qmail and dcron and a few other things but they are the ones needed for Mailman. The web part is working perfect. I have it set to SMTPDirect and I created the mailman list as per the instructions. When I add someone to the list it saves the email msg in the shunt dir under qfiles. Once I get this part working then I will start on the qmail part. Any ideas why it's going to shunt instead of out (I presume it should be going into the out dir). All seven qrunner deamons are running in ps -aux. I do see in /var/qmail/log/error something about SMTP Server Disconnected, but when I telnet from the box running mailman to the smtp server it should be delivering to I can send mail to the person subscribed.

[Mailman-Users] Setup help
Hello: I have a website named service-handyman.com hosted by YGC. They furnish mailman as their webmail handling program. I am attempting to setup a list to receive a form from my site to furnish the first name and email address of visitors that wish to subscribe to my newsletter. I would like to set this up so that when they click on the subscribe button, the name and email address is added to the subscriber list. All the attempts I have tried attempt to post the information to the list and I get an administrative request to accept or reject the information for POSTING. I want the submitted name and address added to the maillist not posted. How do I set this up? YGC advised me to use the subscribe form but it contains passwords, no name input and other info I do not need. Please help. Thanks Dick Chagnot service-handyman.com

I have noticed, that it did not unpack like it supposed too... it was supposed to create in /home/business/mailman but instead it made: /home/business/mailman-2.0.7 Before going any further, you might as well get the latest version of Mailman, which is 2.0.8, from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=103release_id=63078 Getting Mailman going is a 2 phase process. Assuming you have mailman-2.0.8.tgz in your home directory: 1. First you unpack the .tgz file into the 'build' directory. Execute the following commands while logged on as you, not as root. cd tar zxf mailman-2.0.8.tgz cd mailman-2.0.8 2. You then go into that directory to configure Mailman and then run the make install which copies the configured, executable version of Mailman into the directory from which it is normally run. From what you say, you have unzipped and untarred the .tgz file and created a build directory as /home/business/mailman-2.0.7. If you wanted the build directory somewhere else then you could use the UNIX mv command to move it or delete it and unzip and untar the .tgz file in the directory under which you want to put the build directory; I usually put the build directory under my home directory. Once you have got the build directory where you want it then you will want to change to that directory. Now follow the instructions in mailman-2.0.8/INSTALL. Per the mailman-2.0.8/INSTALL file you will want to have created the UNIX user ID and group ID which will run mailman: the user named mailman and group called mailman before you configure Mailman. If you intend to run Mailman from /home/business/mailman then make sure to supply this as the --prefix parameter to configure. Also make sure you know the mail group ID and cgi group ID and supply these as the --with-mail-gid and --with-cgi-gid parameters to configure. You will then run the make program in the build directory to install Mailman in the directory from which you intend to run it. I do not mean to be rude but if what I've said above isn't making much sense and you are struggling with the INSTALL instructions you may need to upgrade your Linux/UNIX administration skills before embarking on using Mailman. Without some Linux/UNIX adminstration skills you are going to find operating Mailman and your MTA may produce problems you will struggle to cope with. can you supply me a command line that will unpak it into the correct directory...
