[Mailman-Users] Mailman and auto-responders?

2002-01-17 Thread Paul Thomas
Howdy, Is Mailman vulnerable to mail-loops caused by auto-responders that are configured to look like an email sent by a person? If not, how does Mailman discern that an email from a person is actually from an auto-responder and visa versa. Thanks, --Paul -- "Yesterday's the past and tomorr

I have a similar problem which I've traced down to Internet Explorer and bad or old Mailman cookies. I've seen a lot of problems with IE6 (and now IE5.5 after the last security upgrade... damn MS). The browser connection manages to create the lock files but then it stops and refuses to authentic

Thanks to all who replied. I'm a bonehead. I botched the cron (yes, there was plenty in the qfiles dir ;). I re-reran crontab for crontab.in in and everything works like a charm. It did help hearing the replies none-the-less (to understand overall function). Thanks for the help and patience <:)

it does indeed sounf like the problem is with cron. Everything else sounds like it's working properly, but cron is never calling qrunner to proccess it. Can you look in your ~mailman/qfiles dir and see if there's anything in there? If it's full of unprocessed .msg, and .db files, then the cron, or

Paul, The logs (/usr/local/mailman/logs/*) show things (i.e. subscribe and smtp) that have been done via the web interface. Nothing shows up at all from anything done by email (piped by postfix to the mailman scripts). The only thing the system logs show is that postfix successfully (?) pipes th

I fixed it. It was slightly embarrasing really. Apparently there were two aliases to mailman in httpd.conf. One ScriptAlias and one Alias pointing /prefix/mailman/. Apparently it used the Alias (without cgi). mvh/ Regards, Martin S. CTO, Forum Syd "To err is human--and to blame it on a compute
