Regardless of method, "service mailman start", "./mailmanctl -s start", when I try to start mailman as root, it hangs. I modified the mailman user from the default of /sbin/nologin, to /bin/bash, so I could log in as mailman. When I'm logged in as mailman, it starts successfully. I did quite a b

I didn't send a reason explicitly. Since the reason was given as part of the admin display, I thought that reason would go to the member as part of the rejection message. Is that not the case? If not, I would consider that a bug. On 9/24/2012 11:06 AM, Odhiambo Washington wrote: > Mailman 2.1.15.

First, thanks for all the replies. The non-members filter seems to do exactly what I want. However, it is not clear what the members filter is doing. If I turn that on, does it mean every message will be Held, Rejected or Discarded? That does not make sense to me as I cannot think of any circumst
