[Mailman-Users] problem with html emails with signature
Hello all. I came into a very strange condition. I sent one HTML email with a signature to a Mailman mailing list without having a footer and the email arrived well and perfectly signed. When i tried to do the same but with the difference that i included one or more reciepients in the CC field then the email arrived with broken signature The above problem came using Netscape/Thunderbird email client but when i used MS Outlook Express then the signature was perfect! Does anyone had any similar problem? P.S.: i am signing this message too.. and making *bold and /italic /to have some html things to see if it fails to your list too.!!!* -- 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
[Mailman-Users] Small reply address problem
Hello there, I was wondering if someone could help with a small annoying problem. I've inherited a mailman system (2.1.5) but I'm not exactly up to speed with Linux and GNU software (but I'm trying). The problem we have is that I can't seem to change the display name of the reply address. When you receive an email from our live digi-tech list or even from a test list I've setup it says it's come from bounces-digi-tech@ or [EMAIL PROTECTED] I've looked through the admin pages and I've forced the reply address to be digi-tech@ and this changes the actual reply address to digi-tech@ or test@ but the display names are still prefixed with bounces-... Is this prefix hidden in a text file somewhere? Thanking you in advance :o) Best regards, Paul. -- 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

[Mailman-Users] Can we use an external mail server with mailman ?
Hi everybody, I have a problem for the configuration of mailman with an external mail server Here is a complement of informations about my first mail : http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/msg34423.html SETUP DETAILS : I install mailman 2.1.5 on my CentOS distro. I setup mm_cfg conf file like this : ##start file DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'extranet-proxiad.com' DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'proxiad.com' add_virtualhost(DEFAULT_URL_HOST, DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST) IMAGE_LOGOS = '/icons/' MTA = 'Postfix' ###end file MAIL SERVER DETAILS My Mail Server is NOT on the same server than my mailman server...

Part of the problem is the term mail server can be confusing because there are two mail servers in the picture, a receiving mail server and a sending mail server. Mailman needs run on the same machine the receiving mail server is on otherwise your aliases will not work. The reason is because when the receving mail server receives an email destined for a mailman list the mail server will via its aliases determine the destination for that list email is a program called mailman, thats what all those aliases are all about. The receiving mail server then hands the incoming list email to the program mailman. It can only give it to the program mailman if mailman is running on the same machine. Mailman in turn takes the email it received and looks up all the members of the list and forwards the email to each of them. To do this mailman invokes a sending mail server. Often the sending and receiving mail servers (SMTP) are the same and run on the same box. But you can direct mailman to use a different sending SMTP server via the SMTPHOST variable. Summary: mailman and the receiving SMTP server must be on the same machine. You description is a bit confusing because the way I read it mailman has in fact received the list email (your previous post shows mailman sending smtp posts). It could only have done that if it the its running on the same machine as the receiving SMTP server and the aliaes are correct. I suspect what actually occurred is those are examples from mail sent on the machine mailman is running on where everything will resolve correctly. -- 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

This will not work. You are tyring to send mail to proxiad.com but mailman is on extranet-proxiad.com. proxiad.com won't know what to do with the mail, Unless proxiad.com knows to relay the mail to extranet-proxiad.com. Issues of relaying and SMTP configuration are outside the scope of the mailman-users list. You will need to learn what the SMTP server is on proxiad.com and configure it correctly.

You are getting this error because either MysqlMemberships did not initialize (the variable cursor is set in the MysqlMemberships constructor) or possibly because the MysqlMemberships class instance was destroyed more than once, but that seems unlikely. I would check how the MysqlMemberships class instance is being created, which is likely in a file called extend.py in the list directory ($prefix/lists/NAME where NAME is the name of one of your lists).

[Mailman-Users] Mailing list creation mail has no Date header (bug#1212066)
Greetings all, I'm using Mailman 2.1.6 (stable) with Courier-MTA, and I'm encountering bug 1212066 (mailing list creation mail has no Date: header). Unfortunately, Courier does not seem to insert a Date header if none is already present, so I'm receiving message creation mails with no date header. It's setting off spamfilters and generally being problematic for me. My question is twofold: 1) This bug hasn't been updated since May; are there any plans to fix it? 2) Does anyone know of a way to get Courier to insert Date headers if needed? I know RFC2822 says that this is not its job, but it would be nice to have a workaround until this issue is fixed.

[Mailman-Users] X-Mailing-List and non-local domain names?
Hi, I recently took over running a list that runs on a friend's domain (let's call it foo.com) on my box, which is bar.com. We currently have everything working by setting up a [EMAIL PROTECTED] list on the local mailman, pointing a [EMAIL PROTECTED] alias to it (the original address of the list), and setting up an explicit reply-to to point to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so the replies go to the right place. The only other thing going on here is the fact that all of the mailing list headers (X-Beenthere, List-Id:, etc) still say [EMAIL PROTECTED]. I would prefer if bar.com's involvement in the list be transparent, which obviously isn't happening. Is there a way to configure mailman to change this behavior?

In some circumstances, after running $prefix/bin/arch --wipe, the HTML message archive pages of subsequent posts to a list and per period archive index page my be generated using the wrong archiver. Examining index and message pages in the archives of a list will show if this problem has affected that list. Reinstallation with this revised patch and rerunning $prefix/bin/arch --wipe should resolve the problem for any affected list. -- 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
[Mailman-Users] recommendations for adding conditional search form to archive template?
I would like to add a search form to some, but not all, of the archive TOC pages. It looks like the most logical place to add the search form code would be the $prefix/templates/*/archtoc.html file, but I'm not sure how I would make this list-specific. I thought I might try an IF statement http://python.org/doc/2.4.1/ref/if.html to only include a form when %(listname) matches a desired list, but I cant seem to get the syntax right. Another idea that I though was to change the indexer so that: $prefix/templates/*/archtoc.html - $prefix/archive/private/*/index.php rather than $prefix/templates/*/archtoc.html - $prefix/archive/private/*/index.html which would also allow me to dynamically include search forms dynamically with PHP but I'm not sure if/how that would be done either.
