Re: [Mailman-Users] add_members

Thank you, Patrick, but I do need the subscriber names in the lists. Cutting them out would not work. Using bin/list_members, Perl and bin/sync_members lets me do what I need to do.

Re: [Mailman-Users] add_members

I don't know the answer, but you could always use a bit of perl glue to convert the first format to something add_members will understand more readily... If I knew what the second part was, I'd offer a script to do so. As a stopgap, you can get just a list of addresses by: cat | cut -d'<' -f 2 |

[Mailman-Users] add_members

Problem: list_members -f -o generates a file of members in the following format: name_of_subscriber sync_members -f takes a file of members in the above format. add_members -r crashes with a traceback when given a file in the above format. The crash appears to happen

If you maintain people's names on the list, then the same procedure can be used to remove someone based on some string in the name, in case you know the name but not the address (I often get such requests): bin/list_members -f | grep -e ""| wc bin/list_members -f | grep -v -e "" > bin/list_mem

Mark, Thank you! Excellent answer. You're right that it was formerly cpanel. Just wondering, isn't it a bug that by default virtual hosts Mailman namespaces collide? Why should it be considered normal to require a patch to support virtual hosts properly? In the web pages you referred me to the
