[Mailman-Users] List Probe Problems

2005-12-26 Thread mailbag
Hi,

For some reason, users who have bounced mails back, end up getting the
probe email later - and it includes attachments with all the other
bounced probe emails, which includes other user's passwords to the list.

I haven't been able to track down the cause, nor have I found references
to anyone else having this problem.  Any suggestions would be
appreciated.

"Discard all messages marked "Defer"" would do that...

Best,

(BTW: I find that generally such things happen, because the moderators
in question have no experience with Mailman and don't understand how
things work. I usually do a remote session with new moderators of lists
on my box, so they can see how the interface works, and how the
administrative functions work. I also give them copies of the PDFs
available on the list.org site.)

[Mailman-Users] Can you discard the entire pending queue for a list?

2005-12-26 Thread Scott P. Miller
I have some lists which were "moderated" by my users where they 
basically left the pending queue untouched (great moderation, eh?)

I now have about 10 lists with anywhere between 100 and 400 pending 
messages.  Clicking "discard" 4000 times doesn't appeal to me.

I guess I could re-create the list under a new name, re-import the users 
and delete the old one, but that seems the long way around.  what I need 
is just a way to "discard all" on the pending messages.

Is there an obvious way I am missing?  Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Scott Miller
