[Mailman-Users] using subscribe in email subject to subscribe users?
How do I configure mailman to accept subscribe email? Is there a way to configure my Mailman version 2.1.9.cp2 (or is it already configured) so that I can have subscribers email my list with subscribe in the subject or body?

Re: [Mailman-Users] Newsgroup interface - prevention of spam transferfrom newsgroup to emails list
David Beaumont wrote: Very occasionally spam has been sent to the newsgroup which our mailman list interfaces with. The spam has then been uploaded to the email list and sent out. This can only get worse. We never get spam on our mailing list normally because you have to be a member to email to it. Of course there is no such restriction on the newsgroup. Is there a simple way to restrict postings picked up from the newsgroup to be from members of the email list only?

[Mailman-Users] Which settings controls mailman email address disiplayed?
Forgive me...I'm new to mailman and am having some trouble. I know the settings are in mm_cfg.py or data/sitelist.cfg but I can't seem to find where. I've set up mailman on a RedHat linux server, and created a mailing list. My first problem is on the mainpage (http://xxx.xyz.edu/mailman/listinfo) it says: If you are having trouble using the lists, please contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] How do I change it from [EMAIL PROTECTED] to something else? Where is that setting stored?

Actually, data/sitelist.cfg does not control anything. It is a suggested configuration for the site list (usually named mailman) as the default settings often aren't appropriate for this list. It is used as input to config_list as in bin/config_list -i data/sitelist.cfg mailman I've set up mailman on a RedHat linux server, and created a mailing list.

The problem I have with is that the address being displayed is non-existent on the mail server. The mailman system is installed on a web server thatis separate from the mail server. I want the contact to be the list owner of the initial mailman mailing list ( step 9 from the installation instructions). If modifying listinfo.py is the correct way to fix this, then that's what'll do to fix it.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Mailman and forums
Is there any software that provides or allows mailman to integrate with forum software (by that I mean a web based method to view all posts by thread etc..)

[Mailman-Users] Display error for 'members' page
I'm running 2.1.9 under debian etch. I tried to clone a member from the command line (something I've done many times previously) but it failed with a NotAMemberError error. The traceback indicated that the *new* address was the problem. Well, of course the new address was not (yet) a member! Anyway, now when I try to use the web interface the 'members' page won't display. I get a 'Bug in Mailman' error. I have other lists on this machine (different domains) and they still work fine.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Server migration question

IIRC, the incoming message is plain text in the .msg file, so using bin/inject on the new system to inject these into the 'in' queue for the list, although tedious, may be easier than anything else. (with luck, the list is an addressee so you can get that from the .msg without having to get it from the metadata in the associated .db).

At any rate, when I looked just now, there were 150 pairs of .db and .msg files, and all but one had been flagged as SPAM, so I used bin/inject with the one .msg file, and sh*t-canned the rest of the files.
