Hello. Please be kind to me, although I have used mailman on a personal level for some years, I have only used Mailman as offered free from our web host. I no nothing about python and have got confused by some of the technical language used in the archive. I can only edit Mailman through the admin interface as it has been offered from my host (probably on a shared server)
One of our clients wanted us to give him 4 mailing lists along side the website we built for him. I made 2 into announce only lists (using info I found on a blog) and two as standard mailing lists. The client wants to receive bounces. However I am aware that mailman usually handles these. I think he wants the member to be automatically disabled when a bounce is received and for him to receive that. Here is some info on the list: Mailman v.2.1.6 I've set the same 3 email addresses (myself, client, client's wife) for the admin and for the moderator. Bounce Processing settings: * Should Mailman perform automatic bounce processing? YES * The maximum member bounce score before the member's subscription is disabled. 0.5 * The number of days after which a member's bounce information is discarded 7 * How many Your Membership Is Disabled warnings a disabled member should get before their address is removed from the mailing list. 0 * The number of days between sending the Your Membership Is Disabled warnings. 7 * Should Mailman send you, the list owner, any bounce messages that failed to be detected by the bounce processor? YES * Should Mailman notify you, the list owner, when bounces cause a member's subscription to be disabled? YES * Should Mailman notify you, the list owner, when bounces cause a member to be unsubscribed? YES I would have thought with the above settings that if a bounce is received the subscriber would be disabled and the admin would be sent the bounce if the email address is incorrect. However I added some fake email addresses and sent some test emails out and nothing was received. I assume that all 3 admins should receive the bounce? Hope you can help me!
