[Mailman-Users] Get newer version of Mailman for Debian 6?

Hello there, I am running a vServer on Debian6. Via "apt-get install mailman" I installed and set up Mailman 2.1.13, which is running fine with 5 mailing lists on my server. Motivated by all those discussions about Yahoo's DMARC on this list, I wondered whether I can upgrade my Mailman installati

Do you have the virtual domains listed at the end of ../mailman/mailman/mm_cfg.py ? Something like: DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = '103.greenbuilder.com' DEFAULT_URL_HOST = '103.greenbuilder.com' add_virtualhost(DEFAULT_URL_HOST, DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST) add_virtualhost('builderswithoutborders.org','builderswi

[Mailman-Users] Virtual Mailman broke!

I'm using the Mailman and postfix that came bundled with MacOS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) on a Mac Mini Server. I have problems adding new lists using the web interface. It's been a problem forever, but I've forgotten the magic fixes to magic files that I've done in the past to correct it. I have a

Hello, I have been following the discussion of the DMARC issues and Mailman's attempts to live with it. I was wondering if anyone has an "Executive Summary" of the DMARC issue in a general sense. The information on the wiki talks about the impact on Mailman, but I need a generic explanation
