[Mailman-Users] List Archive Link wrong if host_name set to default

2003-02-18 Thread Jerry Stratton
I've just upgraded from 2.0.13 to 2.1.1, and the "Go to list archive" link points to lists.sandiego.edu (the value of DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST in Defaults.py) as long as the list's "Host name this list prefers for email." is also set to lists.sandiego.edu. If I change "Host name this list prefers for

2002-02-26 Thread Jerry Stratton
A few people once asked about letting gatewayed newsgroup postings through to members-only lists automatically. I think I have this (and would appreciate comments on what I've done). Note that this opens up the possibility of spam: all a spammer has to do is add a "Newsgroup:" header with the cor

If I have a mailing list set to member_posting_only and also have the list set up as a Usenet gateway, Usenet postings by non-members will be rejected. If true, is there any way I can have Usenet postings be automatically approved by mailman for the mailing list side of the gateway? The purpose o

At our University, we use a special username/password (called a "UNet" account) for all web-related items. We can match the UNet username directly to the user's University e-mail address. I would like to use this username/password for all list members who have a UNet account, but fall through to
