[Mailman-Users] Mailman's Functional Spec for users
I'm new to Mailman and looking for how it treats address headers. Mailman CC'd a sender's subscribed address and I want to know if publishing this address is the intended behaviour, rather than BCC. My problem is with the docs at wiki.list.org/DOC/Home. I haven't found a description of what a list manager does in terms of what behaviour to expect in use, rather than during configuration by users, manager or site admin. The concept of a list manager is explained at www.list.org/mailman-member.txt, but not the basic operation. Page 'Introduction - What is GNU Mailman?' belies its heading and is focussed on 'How do I...' (e.g. 'How do I spell Mailman?'). I found only Reply-to headers mentioned in the List Administration Manual. There's a lot to search and I don't know my way around as a developer. Where should I be looking? -- 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/ Member address: arch...@jab.org
[Mailman-Users] Setting Mailman Moderator Password
I maintain a website via Hostmonster that uses Mailman for an email group reflector. When I receive a moderation request I am taken to a page that says: If you have Mailman moderator access enter the list moderator password, or login via Hostmonster's Channel Webmail access (which I can do). I would like to be able to save a step and enter the list moderator's password, but I don't know where to set it? Any help gratefully appreciated. -- 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/ Member address: arch...@jab.org

Thanks, Mark, but that gets me to the page that asks for the password that I don’t know.

This is cPanel (see https://wiki.list.org/DOC/Mailman%20and%20CPanel) There must be a way for you to get to the Mailman admin UI even if you have to get there via your Hostmonster's Channel Webmail access login. If all else fails, if you go to the admindb page for dealing with held messages and then click the "administrative interface" link near the bottom of that page or just change 'abmindb' to 'admin' in the URL, that should work. If you still can't get to the admin UI, I can't be of further help because I don't know enough about cPanel. -- Mark Sapiro The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.
