[Mailman-Users] plain text only?

2001-02-16 Thread Mark Barratt
I'm a new Mailman user, and a pretty non-expert Linux operator, so Mailman is great - not half the problems I had trying to persuade Majordomo to work (I'm sure it's a fine product in the right hands). So here's my problem: My users want to have plain text messages - no attachments, no html form

Ok; looks like my first problem was more of a bug in Solaris cron (I suppose deny-everything-including-root-by-default is a "feature", but hey...) Now, the mailing list seems to be working fine, except messages are sent out sans "From:" header (making a reply rather difficult to do easily from th

I have a mailing list for which I said the archive should be private. We have a mailing list with a public archive where the link that is given is http://foo.com/pipermail/listname/ and that works fine. (/pipermail/ is an alias to /var/lib/mailman/archives/public/.) That form of URL doesn't give
