As a matter of fact, I had missed seeing the 2nd string (perhaps out of anxiety). It is now working quite well, and yes, I also put the searchbox at the top instead of the bottom. -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254 7 3200 0004/+254 7 2274 3223 "Oh, the cruft.", egrep -v '^$|^.*#' ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ :-) -- Mailman-Users mailing list -- mailman-users@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to mailman-users-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/mailman-users.python.org/ Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: https://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users@python.org/ https://mail.python.org/archives/list/mailman-users@python.org/

Hi Just another RBL testing site: https://multirbl.valli.org/lookup/ Kind regards, Christian Mack Am 10.09.22 um 15:37 schrieb Julian H. Stacey: No known instances of members reporting us as spam. Un-realised reports are worse, where you only later discover your domain name or an IP number has been falsely listed. I searched for a tool to periodically run, to automatically scan with a list of RBL providers, whether any RBL has silently listed your domain names or numbers: http://www.anti-abuse.org/multi-rbl-check/ https://mxtoolbox.com/blacklists.aspx https://rspamd.com/doc/modules/rbl.html Any recommendations ? Opinion: Bad enough that some commercial companies profit by dumping their admin problems on the innocent far end. Worse that the far end may be an unpaid organisation, so companies steal time from volunteer admins. Worst are fake RBL lists, criminal libelling for profit http://berklix.org/~jhs/mail/sorbs/ I have list members who admitted incompetence to unsubscribe majordomo, less with mailman. Worse were the lazy who refused to learn, demanding to waste volunteer admin time for manual help. Procmail rules discarded their noise. Worst were malicious faked reports to black listers.

[Mailman-Users] Welcome E-mail Reply To
Hi guys, So I just recently purchased a mailman 2.1.39 hosted list from mailmanlists.org. I'm trying to start a mailing list for my gliding club where most of the membership is not terribly technologically literate (fortunately I am) and not big on reading directions, so I'm trying to keep it as simple and as least error-prone as possible for our club members. I have ran into 2 problems that could potentially cause a member to think he's sending an e-mail to the list, but actually isn't. Problem #1: One of my friends (who isn't tech savvy and doesn't read directions) was my guinea pig and successfully joined. The problem is he tried to send his first e-mail to the list by simply replying to the welcome e-mail, so he e-mailed my-list-requ...@mailmanlists.org and not my-l...@mailmanlists.org. Wouldn't surprise me if others do the same thing. Is there any option to change the address the welcome e-mail comes from? Is there any other good ways to mitigate this problem? The other has to do with the replying and the "nodupes" feature. So first, I am trying to keep the list as collaborative as possible and have people replying to messages to the whole list and not to the original sender. first_strip_reply_to is on, reply_goes_to_list is set to "This list" and from_is_list is set to "Munge From". So here's the scenario about how an e-mail that should have gone to the list actually just went to an individual user: 1) Bob sends an e-mail to the list. 2) Steve replies all (not just reply) to this e-mail. This sends it both to my-li...@mailmanlists.org and b...@bobs-domain.com. 3) The "nodupes" flag on Bob's account realizes Bob will get the e-mail directly when Steve e-mailed b...@bobs-domain.com as part of the reply and the other part of the reply to my-l...@mailmanlists.org is stripped away (at least for Bob) so that Bob doesn't get the reply twice. 4) Now Bob hits reply (not reply all) to the reply e-mail, but since the reply e-mail he received was sent directly to b...@bobs-domain.com and not the reply e-mail that went through my-li...@mailmanlists.org the reply address is st...@steves-domain.com, not my-l...@mailmanlists.org. 5) The reply to the reply is now just addressed to Steve, not the whole list! I couldn't find any combination of first_strip_reply_to, reply_goes_to_list and from_is_list to make this problem go away and keep everyone on the list regardless of reply or reply all. The anonymous_list option solves it, but then it strips the original sender's name (not just their e-mail address) and I don't want that. Keeping "Bob via my-list (my-l...@mailmanlists.org)" without b...@bobs-domain.com in the Cc, From fields or anywhere else would be ideal, but I can't figure out how to make that happen. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks!
