[Mailman-Users] People in UK
Hi, are there any people from UK on this list who can help me building applications with Mailman for the orthoPoint website ? You will be paid for your work. I am on the move to Liverpool and my own company will be based in London at the end of this year. My college and I looking for people who are be able to help us building a discussion list based community with Mailman and Drupal. Thank you in advance.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Hotmail Delivery Problems
Here is the text of the emails. They are pushing the BondedSender like crazy - especially since I received an email direct from BondedSender. at the address I only used with this ticket to hotmail. An awful lot of passing the buck and saying the same thing over and over again. I am very sorry, but we are not able to discuss the details of the filtering strategies or specific filters which MSN Hotmail utilizes in order to combat unwanted e-mail. Our filters are highly confidential and discussion of the specific filter rules would eventually render them useless for all of our Hotmail mailbox owners. For information on common delivery questions please refer to the Hotmail Postmaster Site found at: http://postmaster.msn.com/. MSN Hotmail has also created the Smart Network Data Services program. This is a service that helps legitimate email senders work with their customers and partners to reduce spam originating from their IP. http://postmaster.msn.com/snds/. Additionally you may want to investigate the Microsoft Sender ID program. http://www.microsoft.com/mscorp/safety/technologies/senderid/default.msp x. While neither the SNDS nor Sender ID will enable emails from you domain to bypass our filtering system they will help in the fight against spam.

As far as that goes, it doesn't sound significantly different from what AOL does. However, at some point it sounds to me like you will probably need to decide how much you want your e-mail to get through their filters. If you want it badly enough, then you will probably pay to use their bonded sender program. Otherwise, you may be forced to eliminate all hotmail users from your lists, or at least live with the fact that most mail from you to hotmail is going to be blocked or dropped. Good luck!

To see the members of the list with their full names I run (on the old machine): # ./list_members -f listname I got this kind of members list: firstname1 lastname1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] firstname2 lastname2 [EMAIL PROTECTED] .. Is there syntax to add members with add_members or another command, so I could directly add them to new list with their full names?

Your previous was seen, but perhaps it was not answered because it's not clear what you're asking. If you could provide some further explanation it would help. Mailman has no direct support for password protecting an email. Mailman is only in the business of being a relay, taking a message from you and redistributing to members of the list. For the most part mailman cares very little about the content of the email and has no password protection of email receipt and delivery. On the other hand there are a variety of schemes by which a sender of email can digitally sign and/or encrypt an email, but all of those schemes are local to the sender and receiver and embedded in the content of the mail, mailman as a distributor of messages is ignorant of them. -- John Dennis [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showamp;file=faq01.027.htp

Instead of expecting you to jump thru hoops for Hotmail, it's perfectly reasonable for you to put the shoe on the other foot and tell them to use a different email provider that has more reasonable policies. When Hotmail finds that they are losing users by droves they will stop expecting all legitimate senders to jump thru these unreasonable hoops. The 'Net treats censorship as damage and routes around it.

[Mailman-Users] Mailman/PHP/Digest Issue
Hey All, My apologies in advance if I'm directing this to the wrong location, but I'm about out of ideas. I recently built a small PHP web form to allow individuals to send email updates to our various mailman lists. Everything works quite nicely for non-digest users, but when I tried to configure the script for digest users, things started to get weird. Initially, no matter how many emails I dispatched using the form, the Mailman digest always listed a single topic. In the MIME digest it attached a single message (the first message sent to the list) and in plaintext it appended all the messages sent to the list but still listed as a single message. The headers where all subsequent messages were to start seemed pretty messed up. So I decided to play with the headers a bit and added the line in the php: $headers .= X-Mailer: PHP/ . phpversion() . \n; After that change all digests calculated the number of messages correctly and displayed the headers accurately. Unfortunately, though every thing looks good in digest/plaintext, digest/MIME was acting up. When a MIME digest was received in Outlook, the messages were not attached to the digest. Yet when I sent to a gmail account they appeared below as forwarded messages. Now if I forsake the php form and send MIME email from outlook to the list Outlook correctly creates a multipart/alternative email and the MIME/digest contains appropriate attachments for all messages.

Have you verified that the list has its password reminder flag set to yes under general options and that the per user option to receive reminders is enabled for at least some members of the list? That answer is 'Yes' to both questions. Anything else?

[Mailman-Users] Message body getting cut off -- Header only
I'm sorry to bother everyone, but is there any way you might be able to help? Whenever I receive email on my desktop, everything is fine. The issue is on my PocketPC. Some (but not all...) of the emails I receive come in blank... EXCEPT for the common header (I believe that it is generated by your software). If I retrieve the same message on my desktop, the message reads fine. I would say it's an issue with my PPC, but the fact that only a few come in with this problem (and ALWAYS from the same senders), and I AM receiving and am able to see the header, I'm not sure. Has anyone else mentioned this problem?

Re: [Mailman-Users] Hotmail Delivery Problems
Since I do webhosting the SNDS system uses SPF, and SPF does not work if you do mail forwarding. Mail gets denied and end up stuck in my mail queue. The only way is to repackage the email (per SPF website) but then if I forward a repackaged piece of SPAM, it looks now like it came from me. and I get blamed! That's why SPF cannot work in this design - or it seems in any webhosting scenario.

An awful lot of passing the buck and saying the same thing over and over again. You can certainly try their SNDS system, and try to follow whatever guidelines they have at their postmaster website. As far as that goes, it doesn't sound significantly different from what AOL does. However, at some point it sounds to me like you will probably need to decide how much you want your e-mail to get through their filters. If you want it badly enough, then you will probably pay to use their bonded sender program. Otherwise, you may be forced to eliminate all hotmail users from your lists, or at least live with the fact that most mail from you to hotmail is going to be blocked or dropped. Good luck!

[Mailman-Users] subscription via -request
Hi all, I was wondering if there is a way to silently subscribe people to a list via the -request command processor (ie sending email commands to listname-request)? If I send the command: subscribe password nodigest [EMAIL PROTECTED] it works fine, but [EMAIL PROTECTED] is then sent a message asking that she confirm the subscription by clicking a link. Our users are confused enough as it is, and we would like to avoid this step. I realize that the confirmation step was created to prevent any old yahoo from subscribing people to lists without their consent, but how would any old yahoo know what the list password is? Seems like an unnecessary extra layer of protection. We are running Mailman 2.1.5. Thanks! - jim - PS I realize that we can silently subscribe people via the GUI and the command line, but we wish to do it via email and -request processor only. -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showamp;file=faq01.027.htp
