[Mailman-Users] supress acknowledgment of subscription request?

2008-05-13 Thread billc
Hi all, Is it possible to supress acknowledgement of subscription requests on a specific list? One list I've maintained for quite a while on another listserv system is for my own use only, collecting addresses of users who subscribe to service on our website. The users come and go, allow th

I've got a couple questions about addresses: 1) I'm running virtual hosts w/apache. On the mailman/listinfo pages, the address [EMAIL PROTECTED] is given, though the server (and the only mailman@ address that has been set up so far) is @mydomain.com. Do I need to set up mailman@ addresses f

Hi again, I'm still having a little trouble with virtual hosts, but most of it is now working properly. Thanks for all the assistance. What's the correct syntax for Virtual_Hosts {} in Defaults.py? I keep getting errors when I try to put something there. I need to set moderation of new accoun

2008-03-19 Thread billc
After a reinstall, it appears that most of the earlier problems have cleared. Creation of new lists and new subscriptions results in the proper sending of notices through Postfix. Running Fetchmail appears to download mail, but it never gets sent out. I've tried a number of variations of fetchm

[Mailman-Users] fetchmail with gmail to mailman

2008-03-17 Thread billc
Hi all, I was hoping to not have to ask this, but I'm stumped. I'm setting up fetchmail to pull mail from a Gmail account (taking advantage of their spam filtering) and dump it into mailman. That way I can avoid opening up Postfix as a POP, and just use it for the SMTP out portion (which app
