This sounds like a good idea, it would be nice to see such a
per-list option in a future version of mailman.

[Mailman-Users] URLs incorrect on private mailing list archive index pages

2003-11-26 Thread Andy Smith
Hi,

I just moved a bunch of lists running under Mailman 2.0.8 on Linux
over to Mailman 2.1.3 on FreeBSD.  After following the INSTALL and
UPGRADING notes almost everything seems to have gone well, except
for the private list archives.

When I go to http://lists.example.com/private/listname/ I get the
archive by-month overview page as expected, but the links miss out
the list name and do not work.  For example, one link might be
http://lists.example.com/private/2003-November/thread.html when I
expect the list name between the "/private/" and the
"/2003-November".

Public lists seem to be unaffected and are still perfectly navigable
via the /pipermail URL.

When moving these lists from one installation to another all I did
was move the private/listname.mbox directories and then run "bin/arch
listname" for each list.

Hopefully someone will have some idea what I have missed here.  A
quick search of the archives of this list didn't show anything
hopeful, but if I didn't look hard enough I'm sorry; please give me
the URL.  If you need any more information, please ask!

Regards,
Andy

Okay, I just noticed something.  What I said above is not completely
true; it only happens when I go to
http://lists.example.com/private/listname (note no trailing slash!).
I guess I was trying to be too clever and going directly to what I
thought was the archive index without using the link provided on the
listinfo page.

I can look up some mod_rewrite incantation but if anyone has a few
minutes to tell me the best way to automatically redirect one to the
other in apache 1.3.28 I would be appreciative.  I know this will
bug me until I do that.

Apologies for the premature bug report!

[Mailman-Users] Mailman suddendly stops sending any emails

2010-02-26 Thread Andy Smith

Hi,

  I have a mailman server thats been up without modification for  
about a year, suddendly it has stopped sending emails.
As Ive never had many problems with mailman I dont have a lot of  
experience troubleshooting it. Can anyone give me some pointers?


What I can tell you, lists are still working normally with the  
exception of not sending emails. In the logs directory the following  
logs all have last modified time of 8am this morning:


bounce
post
smtp
smtp-failur

After that point, no log entries and no emails sent. What should I check next?

thanks for any help! Andy.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Mailman suddendly stops sending any emails

2010-02-27 Thread Andy Smith

Hi,

   ok seems there was a little misinformation regarding this :S

Turns out the issue was no mail was set for all the users in the list,  
possibly relating to the bounce handling. Im struggle to understand  
what is bouncing what to cause this, is it mailman get undeliverable  
mail errors or what (I have no reason to believe mailman has any issue  
delivering mail to any of the members)


thanks Andy.

[Mailman-Users] How to view bounce mails

2010-04-29 Thread Andy Smith
Hi,

On one of my lists a couple of subscribers have been receiving
bounce mails. I can see the bounce mails arriving in the MTA logs,
and Mailman does log this fact in the bounce log, but I'm wondering
about the best way to debug this.

I could of course leave the subscribers to work out why they're
bouncing and eventually being unsubscribed, but I'd like to see the
content of the bounces to see if there is any common problem.

I can't see an option for Mailman to copy bounces to list or site
admin, only the option for it to forward unrecognised bounces. These
bounces are being recognised, but I'd still like to see their
content.

Is there a good way besides copying the list's bounces address to
me?

Cheers,
Andy

Well, I rebooted the host and afterwards the site_owner was set as I
expected. I really thought I  had restarted mailman3.service and
mailman3-web.service several times, but perhaps not…

[Mailman-Users] New install - Where's 'chang...@example.com' coming from?

2022-06-18 Thread Andy Smith
Hi,

I've just installed mailman3 (well, mailman3-full) on a Debian 11
host from Debian packages. I thought I'd gone through
/etc/mailman3/mailman.cfg thoroughly, but I am seeing the From:
address chang...@example.com in some administrative notifications.

Now, when I search for help on this everything says that I have not
set site_owner in /etc/mailman3/mailman.cfg, but I have!

As an example of what I am seeing, when I use the web interface to
unsubscribe a list member, the member themself gets a notification
as expected:

From: testing-boun...@lists.strugglers.net
To: andy-ag...@strugglers.net
Subject: You have been unsubscribed from the Testing mailing list

but the list's owner gets one from "chang...@example.com":

From: chang...@example.com
To: testing-ow...@lists.strugglers.net
Subject: Testing unsubscription notification

andy-aga...@strugglers.net has been removed from Testing.

I can't for the life of me work out where this is coming from:

$ sudo ack site_owner /etc/mailman3
/etc/mailman3/mailman.cfg
28:site_owner: postmas...@lists.strugglers.net
$ sudo ack changeme /etc/mailman3

(no output)

It's not in any of the sqlite DBs either (still on sqlite while
testing things out):

$ sudo sqlite3 /var/lib/mailman3/data/mailman.db .dump | grep -i changeme
$ sudo sqlite3 /var/lib/mailman3/web/mailman3web.db .dump | grep -i changeme

So where can this possibly be coming from?

I have not yet configured the MTA (Exim) for delivering to Mailman,
and I haven't done anything special about sending settings:

[mta]
# …
outgoing: mailman.mta.deliver.deliver
smtp_host: localhost
smtp_port: 25
configuration: python:mailman.config.exim4

Thanks,
Andy

[Mailman-Users] Web links in templates - is this non-default?

2022-06-18 Thread Andy Smith
Hi,

>From Mailman 2 I am used to various administrative emails having web
links in them for ease of use. For example, when confirming your
subscription to a list I am used to the confirmation email having
both an embedded code for replying back and also a link to the web
interface for confirming by web.

On a new install of mailman3-full on Debian 11 I am not seeing any
web links, only text regarding replying by email, how to change
options by email, etc.

Am I right in thinking that this is intentional, it is not some
simple thing that I missed or forgotten to enable? I'm assuming
because mailman3 can function without any web interface so it was
considered that adding links to Postorious by default would not be
the correct thing to do?

If that is the case, is the correct way to achieve what I want to
add a bunch of custom templates? It seems like it might be a common
desire, so have anyone done this already? I searched around but I've
found it difficult to come up with good search terms for this.

Thanks,
Andy
