[Mailman-Users] python 1.4
Hi, My host has Python 1.4 only installed and in the mailman site, it says that Python 1.5 is required. Is there any way I can get mailman running with only Python 1.4? or what parts of the source require Python 1.5 I can disable? Thanks __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

There are a number of good reasons to NOT use wildcard MX records. If you are running a mail server, you should understand the pros and cons.

[Mailman-Users] spam filtering?
One would beleive, according to the front page of list.org, that mailman has integrated spam filters. Reading through the documentation and a bit of the source Im not quite sure how that is defined. Years ago I asked what "hooks for external (web) archivers" meant and was told that you can set up and alias ala "|/path/to/archiver" So I read that feature list with a very large grain of salt. Here at a local communiy net majordomo has been in use for years and years. At some time in the past some custom spam filters were installed, and the list owners had the choice of having triggered mail bounced to them (for approval) or silently thrown away. What I would like is to have a simmilar setup if/when we migrate to Mailman.. All our incomming mail is being scanned by SpamAssassin, so all that mailman would need to do is check headers and hold for approval (or discard as an option) messages with an approiate spam score. Is this possible, and if so how would I set this up? -- Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ This message was sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org

[Mailman-Users] Python upgrade 'disables passwords'
Hi, I am having some trouble today after upgrading my Python from 1.5.2 to 2.0.1 I am running Mailman 2.0. Today I compiled and installed Python 2.0.1 in order to support some other software on this server. All of the Mailman functions appear to work fine after the update, except for the site admin and list admin passwords. Accessing any of the lists admin pages, and inputting the expected password, returns an "Authentication Failed" message. I was able to fix the site admin password with mmsitepass. Now I can get into the admin pages as a site admin. But, even if I go into a list admin page and enter a new password in the area for Changing the Administrator password, I still cannot use that password to get into the admin pages. Does anyone know what is going on here, or why the Python update would have caused this password trouble? Is there an admin script that I can use to also fix the list admin passwords, like mmsitepass did for the site admin?

[Mailman-Users] Flaw or feature? moderated lists & non-member posts
I've been testing some sample mailing lists and trying to "break the rules" for my environment. For example, I created a list and configured it to be moderated. Then, I posted a message to the list from a non-member account. One would expect (or atleast I would) that the administration interface would say something along the lines of "Post from non-member", but the fact is that doesn't occur. Instead, the fact that the list is moderated takes precedent and you get a message along these lines: "Post to moderated list" While this is technically correct, a moderated list may wish to bounce non-member submissions. Otherwise, an unsuspecting individual may simply approve a post because it appears to be "on topic", and not have a clue that the individual is not a member of the list. If this a flaw? A bug? Obviously there has to be a way to make the list say "Post from non-member" even if the list is in moderated mode. The question is, if you approve a non-member post at that point, does it get re-injected and come up as a post submitted to a moderated list, or does it just go through? (I prefer the latter) Am I barking up the wrong tree? Is this not an order of precedence issue? I'm sort of stumped on it. I have a specific list I'd like to run that is strictly limited to members only. Due to the volume of subscribers, it is clearly possible that someone wouldn't realize a post came from a non-subscriber in this scenario. -Jeff -- Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py
[Mailman-Users] order of checking in mailman
I've found either a configuration error (on my part) or a possible flaw in the way mailman checks posts to lists. Others may not consider this a flaw, and I appologize if I've managed to miss this in any previous discussions. I created a list for testing and told it to limit posts to those individuals who are already subscribed to the list. Then I told it to make the list moderated, forcing approval of each message. It appears when I send messages to the list from a non-subscribed address, they show up in the administrative tasks as "Reason: Post to moderated list" when in fact they should show up (in my opinion) as "Reason: Post by non-member to a members-only list" Otherwise, unless I'm missing something, you have no way of knowing if the moderated post you're reading is from a list-subscriber or not. Is there a way to make mailman check the subscription issue prior to simply bouncing the message to the queue due to the list being moderated? The only flaw I can see is if this would cause the message to go through the approval process twice, but I'm sure that could be solved as well. p.s. - I wrote this out and then realized I'm mailing a mailing list, so if you reply, please consider sending it to me directly or via a cc: Thanks! -jeff -- Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py
[Mailman-Users] Non-Member & Moderated List (reposted question)
I asked about this last week and never saw a response, so I'm going to try and ask with a little more detail. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know. I have not poked around the code to see why this occurs this way. When you run a list that is non-moderated, but you limit posts to the subscribers list, a post by a non-member results in this error: Reason: Post by non-member to a members-only list If you go into "Privacy Options" and change "Must posts be approved by an administrator?" and maintain "Restrict posting privilege to list members" a post by a non-subscriber results in THIS reason: Reason: Post to moderated list Unless I am missing a configuration option, I believe this is a flaw in the order in which mailman is checking posts. Even if a list is moderated, the reason this individual post was rejected should still read Reason: Post by non-member to a members-only list or, a new reason should be made like this: Reason: Post by a non-member to a members-only AND moderated list This may seem like a silly request, but if you run a members only list that happens to be moderated as well, you run into the problem of accidentally approving a post from a non-member when the content of that post was "on topic". Is there a fix for this? Would this classify as a bug? Does anyone know of any other work arounds? When you have a few thousand people on a mailing list, its not really easy to realize on your own that a specific individual isn't a subscriber to the list. Especially when you have multiple individuals help administrate the list itself. -Jeff -- Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py
[Mailman-Users] odd admindb crashes
We've had Mailman working just fine for two years, but in the past day we've encountered a perplexing problem.

The error I quoted above is the _only_ error message in the
webserver log. There's noting else, like a python traceback or
whatever malformed header is being created :( Just:

That's why I have no clues where to look. Any way to get
debugging information from admindb? How could I run it from the

I've talked to several other Mailman admins - Hotmail is dumping a lot of messages from us on the floor.

[Mailman-Users] I have a hoster that I would like to use mailman with
I'm currently using a webhoster and I have an account on their machines. They're using FreeBSD and they use majordomo for their mailing lists. I really don't like majordomo and I don't find it to be very flexible. They're considering mailman, but getting them to install it will probably take forever. I was hoping there would be some way for me to install it locally to my home directory and just use it for my lists. Plus, if they want to use it, they'll need to be flexible in letting others do their own mailing lists. I notice places like SourceForge have this feature where each project can set up their own lists. Is there a way I can install Mailman in my account without root privs or is there minimal root privs things that I could just ask them to do? They said they'd be willing to help me out with the system stuff, but I don't want anything to conflict with their current system. Also, I have my own domain name that all of my email goes to. I don't know if that helps in the setup or not.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Announce only list
David, I run an "announce only" list. http://www.OhioCCW.org/mailman/listinfo/ccw-alert Its really easy. You tell people its announcements only, no posts, and you put it into moderated mode. I even approve the announcement posts instead of telling mailman to "let them through" to prevent someone from trying to fake the sender. I made a small hack to mailman (nobody considered it a bug, I did) so if a non-member posts to a moderated list it bounces the message into the approval queue and says "Post by a non-member" instead of "Post to a moderated list" Just because a moderated list is moderated doesn't mean you want to let non-members post, but thats not relevent to your project.

[Mailman-Users] wishlist addition
hi, i didn´t see this on http://mailman.sourceforge.net/todo.html but it would be nice if, with mailman´s archives pages (whether organized by thread, subject, or author, or date) the user were not limited to searching by month only. for instance, on the mailman-based mailing list, ¨gimp-user¨, for the gnome ¨gimp¨ project (http://www.gimp.org), you can go to that mailing list´s archives, at http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/lists/gimp-user/ . but if you want to do a search for the word, ´startup´ (such as discussions on the gimp startup options), you have to painstakingly click through searches on **1 month at a time**. (i would use the htdig search facility they added, but it is broken as of today). for instance, i click on ¨View by Thread¨ under ¨December 2002¨. then getting to that month, i hit ¨Ctrl-F¨ in my browser to search through the message subject headers for my word. not finding it, i have to back out and choose november 2002. and so on, all the way back to november 1997, when that list apparently started. it would be nice if i could get in a single page a listing of subject headers for the full archive, from the web site, and be able to use my browser´s Ctrl-F search function on that single page. i realize for some lists it would be long, and with a simple warning, the user would be forewarned, and could continue if she/he wanted. thanks, jeff stern -- Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ This message was sent to: archive@jab.org Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
RE: [Mailman-Users] Information request
While I dont speek with the authority of someone who has done any work on Mailman, I think I can anwser you question based on the usual response to the password issue. It is generaly acknolaged that passwords are a good thing. Mailman can be configured to mail out reminders monthly, or on demand, so loosing them is a non-issue. I think that the main developers are not interested in changing this feature, or changing the double opt in for remote subscriptions either. Agian, both are a good thing and within the goals of the project (as I understand them). Also, by the tone of you message I think you quite confused by what mailman is. No one is making money off of it, and the unecessarly formal language isnt going to impress anyone (quite possibly the opposite). As a user Ive use a lot of mailing list systems, and I can say that mailman is the best Ive come accross.

The wife of top Government official and an oil magnet i.e. late General Sani Abacha former head of State Federal republic of Nigeria, who ruled from November 17th 1993 to June 8th 1998 and he died suddenly while in office. The wife wishes to move out of Nigeria the sum of u$$42 million along with some large quantity of gold and diamond, she wishes to invest the aforementioned sum in viable investment overseas. For obvious reasons, my client does not want to place this fund with established financial institution in the families name for security reasons. It is her desire that the deal be handled as quietly as possible without possibility of any leakage to the public or government. She has therefore empowered us to find and negotiate for and interested foreign firm with which we can use their name to move this money from here, and assist to invest the fund properly for the family. If you agree to act as a fund manager for my client and the family, I shall release the sum of u$$42 million to you if you meet my requirements. The money is available safe with a private security company coded in a secret name, so upon a favorable response from you, I shall let you know how you will receive it. Your commission shall be down payment of 15% of the total sum, that is u$$6.3 million and annual 10% of the after tax returns on investment for the first 5 years. Thereafter, the terms shall be varied. Ref: news watch magazine publication of 11th to 18th October 1999. Sir, if you are capable and willing to participate in this transaction contact me through my email address: In any case, please keep it tight secret. Best regards, Mr. JEFF UTARZI.

[Mailman-Users] MTA choices - suggestions for sendmail alternatives???
Last week, I took a count and realized I'm supporting 117 sendmail boxes. I'm getting tired of some of the control, performance and UCE issues that sendmail doesn't address, and it is time to at least explore some alternatives. Apparently, postfix and exim are the favorites of this group (with a small, but vocal qmail faction). I don't really have any servers that need to do 500,000 deliveries per day, so "ultimate performance" is not the only, or even the most important, criteria.

Not exactly what you asked for, but I've written patches for mailman-2.0.5,
which can force (configurable on a per-list basis) all posts to plain text.
Basically, it converts HTML and text/{enriched,richtext} to plain text,
and strips binary attachments.
You can find the patches at:

[Mailman-Users] Multilingual chinese support
I am looking to put together a mailing list for students learning mandarin and wanted to use Mailman. From what I've read, it would seem that Mailman is able to pass on email with multibyte characters in it okay. What I am wondering is if it's possible for the pipermail archiver to create the HTML messages with the multibyte characters intact. In my testing, the archive pages do not contain the multibyte characters in the original messages. I am running mailman 2.1.3 on Debian testing. I have already installed the python2.3 CJK codecs package as well. I have searched through the archives and only found a few comments here and there with no definative answers. thanks in advance, Jeff -- <-> [EMAIL PROTECTED] <-> [EMAIL PROTECTED] <-> [EMAIL PROTECTED] . . \ / "God is real... unless declared an integer" . .

This is based on your mail server and MX records. You can create aliases on the main server and then point specific aliases to a subdomain, or by using transport maps (Postfix). One domain name means one main MX machine which can then feed mail to secondary machines given correct aliasing. Using a separate subdomain for Mailman would probably be easier ([EMAIL PROTECTED])... then you set up the mail server on the Mailman machine to receive mail for lists.mydomain.com greetings, thanks for the reply. that makes total sense to me. i am converting about a 100 alias files into maillists. and running them on a different machine. correct me if Im wrong. i setup my dns records IN MX 10 smpt1.mydomain.com.

The web interface will load correctly if I go to http://www.dom.ain/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/blah but halfway through any admin task it dumps me out to https://www.dom/ain/mailman/admin/blah (which does NOT work even though those URLs worked before and are configured in mm_cfg.py and Defaults.py). I noticed that some .pyo and .pyc files matched the string "cgi-bin" so I moved those to /tmp/ and still things don't work. Can't think of why it might have changed, but have you checked to make sure the ScriptAlias directive in your apache conf is set correctly? I do expect the problem (at least this one) is in your mm_cfg.py file. The DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN (in mm_cfg.py) should be something like 'http://%s/mailman/' or 'http://dom.ain/mailman/'. I'm assuming that you don't have mailman installed within your apache cgi-bin - somehow I don't think that would be a good idea... If changes had originally been made to Defaults.py instead of mm_cfg.py then those changes were likely overwritten when you upgraded. You might replace the mm_cfg.py file (back it up first, of course) in the Mailman directory with a blank one and stop/start via mailmanctl. If it works then you know the problem is in your mm_cfg.py file. If it is, start a fresh one and being moving the configuration over one line at a time until you find the problem. If you want to send me your mm_cfg.py file (via private mail) I'll look over it and see if I can see any obvious problems in it for you. BTW, did you ever find your log files? -Jeff -- Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/

Not to disagree with you, but why not just save the text file(s) and use the 'Upload' button when you do have a connection?

There's no question that an e-mail interface can be useful. The value of this was recognized a long time ago. Mailman does already include an e-mail interface. I am sorry if I am being really dense; but what _is_ the administrative email interface to Mailman? For example, how _can_ a list administrator unsub a bunch of listmembers via email? I cannot for the world of me find any documentation on this. Send 'help' to the list -request address. You'll receive the command list back. I am in the process of deciding whether to move a fairly large list-hosting operation from majordomo to Mailman. Although most of our listowners use exclusively MajorCool, there are a few -- some with very large lists -- who do all their subscription and unsubscription operations via email. I want to be able to tell them how they can do this in Mailman, but I haven't been able to find out. Yet I see these hope-arousing little hints, such as Brad's above, that it can be done... I don't think it can as distributed. Looking through cmd_subscribe and cmd_unsubscribe I don't see anything specific for administrators. That said, it shouldn't be too hard to add sub and unsub admin functions though, and cmd_who should provide the clues to build them. Actually, I'm kind of surprised no one's done this.

In my experience it's generally a problem on their end. Sometimes you'll see a log message about the connection being dropped and the message possibly being sent more than once. That can be an indication of problem (like too much load) on your server and should be looked into further.
