[Mailman-Users] hostname instead of mx name - mailman.db warning

Hi there, I'm new to mailman and trying to create a mailing-list for a team in my company (antipolis). the name should be [EMAIL PROTECTED] because I can't manage the official MX of antipolis.fr domain. so the emails should be directly managed by the host lists.antipolis.fr. I use mailman 2.1.5

[Mailman-Users] footer

On the same server I have two lists. When I post to one of them, the footer (with the list URL etc.) is attached as a separate mime part. When I post to the other list, the footer is just added to the single mime part of the e-mail. I do not understand what I might have done differently when

Well, I discovered what was the matter. The footer is always sent as ISO 8859-1, even if it contains only US ASCII characters. To one list I usually write in Norwegian, so the body is also ISO 8859-1, and then the footer is appended to the body. To the other list I usually write only ASCII. In

Most of those kinds of messages, on my lists, and I have over 60, are spam. You can set Mailman to discard all held messages, so you won't ever see them. They will also discard member posts from different addresses, etc., but this may be a small price to pay for not having to go through
