[Mailman-Users] Delayed posts to mailman lists from Netscape/Mozilla browsers

2002-10-12 Thread Art
I encountered and solved a problem with Netscape 4.xx under Linux causing problems when posting to a mailman 1.xx mailing list. Due to a problem with how Netscape 4.xx handled headers the postings ended up being held for administrative action before being posted to the list. This was resolved

Check the log files for mailman. Check the space on the server and make sure none of your volumes is too full. Then check your lists for the latest subscribers (you should be able to see the new subscribers in the log files). See if someone subscribed using a full name [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Mailman is Open Source, so if you have sysadmin rights to the server that Mailman is running on, then you can do anything you would like, including personalizing the standard notices. The 2.0.x series does not let you do this by default, but you can edit the Source code. I think the 2.1.x series

Pipermail doesn't do a good job with MIME. You can try setting your archives to allow MIME. If it still does not work, then you should look at using an external archiver like MHonArc http://www.mhonarc.org You don't have to run MHonArc on the server with the lists, it can run anywhere on the

Hmmm... What OS are you running this on? To fix this, you have to figure out what Group your MTA (sendmail, postfix, exim, qmail,etc...) runs as, then reconfigure mailman so that it knows what group ID should be allowed to run the Wrapper program. Looks like your system is doing some funky

This is really not a bug in Mailman - though I think the new series (ver 2.1.x) checks for this condition and fixes it. I believe this is caused by some Mailers that leave off the From: or misconfigure it. This issue was discussed in detail on the list about a year ago. Jon Carnes On Fri,

There is no hard limit to the number of addresses. I'm going to guess that your folks have various email addresses that they use (I use about 5). To be on the safe side, you should add all the various addresses that your admins use to the field (one address per line). Jon Carnes On Fri,
