[Mailman-Users] Uncaught runner exception: regular_exclude_lists
Hi all, I've followed the FAQ to move some lists across to a new server, but now on the new machine any message posted to a list gets passed to Mailman and then disappears. The Mailman error log says this: Sep 24 10:34:18 2009 (5311) Uncaught runner exception: regular_exclude_lists Sep 24 10:34:18 2009 (5311) Traceback (most recent call last): File /usr/lib64/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py, line 120, in _oneloop File /usr/lib64/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py, line 191, in _onefile File /usr/lib64/mailman/Mailman/Queue/IncomingRunner.py, line 130, in _dispose File /usr/lib64/mailman/Mailman/Queue/IncomingRunner.py, line 153, in _dopipeline File /usr/lib64/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/CalcRecips.py, line 99, in process File /usr/lib64/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/CalcRecips.py, line 157, in do_exclude File /usr/lib64/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py, line 146, in __getattr__ AttributeError: regular_exclude_lists Sep 24 10:34:18 2009 (5311) SHUNTING: 1253752458.0181279+c9484331c59781f0d3cf0af775ece9b9c88a6b43 I can't find any reference to this exception, so I'm a bit stuck where to look next. Any ideas? The new server is running a fresh install of Mailman (it didn't have any lists before I moved these ones across) and the move went from Slackware to Gentoo so many of the paths have changed, just in case these are saved in the list data. (I have run the fixurl script as per the FAQ, and the lists do appear in the Mailman web UI.)

[Mailman-Users] not receiving pending moderator's emails
We recently migrated to a new server and newer version of mailman and all our moderated lists have stop receiving the notice of pending posts. We are now on 2.1.11 version of mailman and came from 2.1.4. Should the list moderators get immediate notice of new requests, as well as daily notices about collected ones? Is set to yes. If I run checkdb manually nothing happens. The sender get a notice that the emails is on hold pending the moderator approval. The moderate can send email or approve pending ones and they go. Just the notice to the moderator not getting to them. We are on suse Linux 2.6.27.29-0.1-pae Anyone got an idea why or what to do?

[Mailman-Users] Mailman silently discard messages
I have a mailing list that suddenly died, theoretically without any changes being made. I've seen some posts about this behavior, but can't figure out what's happening.

[Mailman-Users] Digest Headers
So I recently had a member of our list ask that the headers about sending and receiving messages be put at the end of the email, and I happen to think it's a good idea as that is a standard format that people are used to seeing. However my header field is blank, though I do have a custom footer. My question is how can I move this text to the bottom of the email?

[Mailman-Users] Question about Troubleshooting Mailing List Issues
One of the administrators of our Mailing List (and I also tried it myself) tried to send out a message on one of our lists. The policy on this particular list is that any mailing list member can send out a message as long as it is under 100K in size. After a couple of hours, the message bounced back to him and it said something like Try again later. I also tried to send a message (I am also an administrator (but am not in charge of the list) and member.) and I haven't gotten any response yet myself. The server that our website and the Mailman program reside on is the same, and I am able to log in and make changes to the information on our website, but I am not able to send any messages, nor do I know of a way to see if there is something wrong with Mailman (it doesn't seem to be the server...). I also checked the documentation at list.org, but there isn't anything to this effect. I am also wondering... in the future, if there is a way to manually send e-mails out to the list (i.e. from within the Mail List Administrative area)?

[Mailman-Users] Mailman : too fast when small ressources, how to make it slower
Hello, I use mailman for around 3000 subscribers on a small VDS (virtual server under Virtuozzo). I've configured postfix to fork no more than 10 times to avoid aving to many process (no more than 128 ... or my system become instable). But It seems mailman is too fast to generate mails so that it use a lot off kernel memory, too much for my VDS which cause a non sending of many emails, memory is not allocate by Virtuozzo to my Vds. Of course I can't reconfigure Virtuozzo parameters, so here is my point : it there a way to configure mailman to send emails to a list slower than normal ? I was thinking of sending mails per packets, for example 100 by 100, in a predifined period of time, but I haven't found how to configure mailman for that ... I'm quit new in mailman by I haven't found the answer yet, usually people want that mailman generates and sends mail faster ... That is not my case :( Thanks for your precious help.

[Mailman-Users] Admin interface not recording changes (not the FAQ)
We have mailman up and running successfully, in as far as it forwards e-mails to the list and shows the interfaces for /listinfo and /admindb. However, when I go into the web interface to configure list settings, it accepts the input but doesn't record the change when I click Submit. We're running OS X Server v10.5.8, using mailman v2.1.9. Before you leap on the redirect default e-mail, I have read the FAQ. I _did_ have a redirect going, because our root site URL was redirecting to the webmail interface for the server. I have corrected that, and restarted both the webserver and mailman. I'm now going directly to the site, but the behavior hasn't changed. (I'm sure of this, because I removed the redirect first to find out why it was there - the admin interface was failing because the root of the site was redirected to /webmail and the webadmin just redirect mailman back, which of course didn't work well. That has been resolved so there is no root site redirection any longer, and thus the mailman redirect isn't needed either and was removed as well.) I don't _think_ any of the other situations referred to in the FAQ are involved, but I'm not a UNIX/Linux guru, so I may well have missed something due to ignorance. I suspect this is may be OS X related because everything looks good in the mm_config.py and other config files (per the instructions on the mailman wiki), so I posted on my usual Mac/OSX forums as a first step, but haven't gotten any helpful answers (yet). Anyone have any ideas? I'm about ready to pull out all 3 of my remaining hairs. Thanks in advance! Signed, Matthew C.

[Mailman-Users] Treat post from non-member mail addresses like join request?
Hi, this is roughly what I want to achieve, with a list that allows posts from members only: - when a member mails to list@domain, the message should be posted as usual - when a non-member mails to list@domain, this should be treated like a subscription request, i.e. as if he had mailed to list-join@domain I could not figure out how this could be achieved, and now I wonder whether it is so an unreasonable behaviour? Sure I could reject the non-member mails and in the reply tell them that another mail address must be used to join, but this would be more effort and multiple addresses to communicate. Ideally, the initial submission would be held until the sender address is confirmed and then posted to the list. I have even thought of copying all mails to post and join, but then legitimate posts would get a reply you are already subscribed for which I found no switch to suppress.

one of my mailing lists is sending out digests without the usual in-line separator of Message 1... Message 2... between the messages, after the Table of Contents.

[Mailman-Users] command line administration.
I'm preparing for a time soon when I'll have to administer a large active mailman list via a very limited connection (don't ask, but thank goodness for PuTTy and internet over cel networks deep in Brasil). I've read the FAQ 3.61 and will examine Skip Montanaro's mmfold.py script; in the meantime I'm also re-familiarizing myself with all the scripts in {mailman}/bin.Also am testing the mailman GUI with command line browsers w3m, lynx, and links. I'd be interested in hearing of experiences doing this (am running 2.1.12). The archives on one list go back to 1994 (SmartList!) and are extensive. Education of subscribers as to how to keep quoting to a minimum (I contributed a module way back when to SmartList that would kick back overquoting), top-posting, etc., have mostly been in vain - including kicking back the postings and asking for trimming- so for some years now I have moderation enabled, and a few times a day I review the posts and trim them myself. It's radical but it works. Helps as well with the search indexing for the list done every night (used to use htdig; now using webglimpse; might switch to swish-e). In order to edit the postings I have this in mm_cfg.py: # this is to be able to edit held messages to kill advertising # remember to insert blurb that msg was edited # messages will now be held as .txt (less efficient) HOLD_MESSAGES_AS_PICKLES = No ..and I run a command that aliases to vim path_to_held_messages/ *.txt thanks to the maintainers and creators of Mailman. -- Rob Lingelbach r...@colorist.org -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 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://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9
[Mailman-Users] Error when list Moderator deals with pending requests
Hi All- We're running Mailman 2.1.12 on a Ubuntu server, version 9.0.4. We've run into an issue when a list moderator takes care of pending requests.what happens is when the moderator takes an action for the request and hits the Submit Data button, it throws the we hit a bug message. I looked through the error logs and found this entry which I've copied and pasted below. I'm the owner for all of our lists and I don't encounter this when I take care of the pending requests, it only happens to the moderators. Can anyone give me some insight as to what may be going on?

Any ideas? It appears that the new server is running 2.1.10 or later with the sibling lists feature, and the old server from which the lists were moved did not have this feature, so the lists did not have the corresponding regular_exclude_lists and regular_include_lists attributes. However, that doesn't explain what is happening, because the first time the moved list is instantiated on the new server, Mailman should detect that the list's data_version is less than the installation's DATA_FILE_VERSION and update the list's attributes. So, the question is why didn't this happen, or if it did, why weren't the regular_exclude_lists and regular_include_lists attributes added? Did the old installation have patches that increased it's DATA_FILE_VERSION? -- Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.netThe highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

I also tried to send a message (I am also an administrator (but am not in charge of the list) and member.) and I haven't gotten any response yet myself. The Try again later. response didn't come from Mailman. It most likely came from The MTA because it doesn't know how to deliver list mail. The server that our website and the Mailman program reside on is the same, and I am able to log in and make changes to the information on our website, but I am not able to send any messages, nor do I know of a way to see if there is something wrong with Mailman (it doesn't seem to be the server...). I also checked the documentation at list.org, but there isn't anything to this effect. Who administers this server. Is it your organization or a hosting service. Whoever it is, they need to make sure that the mail server can deliver to Mailman.

You could also let the pipeline continue and hold the non-member post, but automatically approving that post when the poster becomes a member is trickier.

From: Rob Lingelbach r...@colorist.org Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2009 23:32:13 -0300 To: mailman-users@python.org one of my mailing lists is sending out digests without the usual in-line separator of Message 1... Message 2... between the messages, after the Table of Contents. It is set to send MIME-type digests. MIME vs. plain format digest is a user option not a list option. The list option only sets the default for new users. Plain format digests have messages inline separated by the RFC 1153 separator line (30 hyphens) followed by selected headers and the scrubbed message body. MIME format digests have each message as a separate MIME message/rfc822 part with partial headers and the MIME message body. The Message: n line is aadded by digest processing as a message header. Which headers appear in plain and MIME format digests is controled by the settings MIME_DIGEST_KEEP_HEADERS and PLAIN_DIGEST_KEEP_HEADERS, both of which include Message: by default. However, what you actually see in the MIME format digest depends almost entirely on the MUA used to view it. -- Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.netThe highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Easy way to add to mail template?
Hicks, Robert CTR I need to add an abuse statement and one other to all outbound mailman stuff. Is there a simple way to do that?

Re: [Mailman-Users] Clearing Message Queue
Tony Zielinski wrote on Thu, 17 Sep 2009 How do I clear mailman's outgoing message queue? A message is going out to 2700 users and i need to stop it. I stopped the smtp server for the moment, but I know as soon as I turn it back on mailman will still be queuing up messages. I think we talked about this on the #mailman irc channel. IIRC, I mentioned stopping Mailman and examining/removing entries from the out/ and/or retry/ queues and you determined that the delivery had all gotten to the MTA anyway. -- Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.netThe highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Error when list Moderator deals with pendingrequests
Mark Ryan wrote: We're running Mailman 2.1.12 on a Ubuntu server, version 9.0.4. We've run into an issue when a list moderator takes care of pending requests.what happens is when the moderator takes an action for the request and hits the Submit Data button, it throws the we hit a bug message. I looked through the error logs and found this entry which I've copied and pasted below. I'm the owner for all of our lists and I don't encounter this when I take care of the pending requests, it only happens to the moderators. Can anyone give me some insight as to what may be going on? Yes. This is a Python 2.6 incompatibility in 2.1.12. It only occurs when the moderators do the approval because only the moderators are checking the 'Preserve messages for the site administrator' checkbox when handling messages. (You might want to check Mailman's spam/ directory to see how many preserved messages are there.) Here is a patch to fix the incompatibility. --- Mailman/ListAdmin.py2008-09-21 18:59:44 + +++ Mailman/ListAdmin.py2009-08-01 00:40:36 + @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ -# Copyright (C) 1998-2008 by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. +# Copyright (C) 1998-2009 by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. # # This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or # modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License @@ -202,7 +202,7 @@ cPickle.dump(msg, fp, 1) else: g = Generator(fp) -g(msg, 1) +g.flatten(msg, 1) fp.flush() os.fsync(fp.fileno()) finally: @@ -251,7 +251,7 @@ outfp = open(outpath, 'w') try: g = Generator(outfp) -g(msg, 1) +g.flatten(msg, 1) finally: outfp.close() # Now handle updates to the database -- Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.netThe highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

Mailman 2.1.12 was intended to be fully compatible with Python 2.6.x, but we missed one change which only affects preserving messages for the admin from the admindb interface and holding messages as text files. A patch for this issue is in the above post. This does not affect Mailman 2.1.12 when used with Python 2.4.x or 2.5.x.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Mailman silently discard messages
Chris Miller wrote: In this case we have an email address hosted by Google's business mail services, that forwards to the Mailman list on a remote server. http://lists.nextspace.us/mailman/admin/nextspace-chatter/?VARHELP=privacy/recipient/acceptable_aliases I setup a test forwarded and confirmed that Google is in fact added the X-BeenThere: header. I'm assuming that Google just added this header a few days ago, since the list worked fine before that. http://lists.nextspace.us/mailman/admin/nextspace-chatter/?VARHELP=privacy/recipient/acceptable_aliases Also email sent to the list's local address (not routed via Google) work just fine. Are you sure it is Google adding this header. I get mail forwarded from Google mail and the only headers of this type it adds are X-Forwarded-To: m...@msapiro.net X-Forwarded-For: msap...@value.net m...@msapiro.net We have *require_explicit_destination* set, with the Google hosted email address http://lists.nextspace.us/mailman/admin/nextspace-chatter/?VARHELP=privacy/recipient/require_explicit_destination listed in the *acceptable_aliases*. http://lists.nextspace.us/mailman/admin/nextspace-chatter/?VARHELP=privacy/recipient/acceptable_aliases I disabled *require_explicit_destination* http://lists.nextspace.us/mailman/admin/nextspace-chatter/?VARHELP=privacy/recipient/require_explicit_destination and removed the acceptable aliases, however the problem still exists. require_explicit_destination is processed by the Hold handler. Approve has deleted the message long before it gets there. I'm not certain I'm reading the code correctly, but it appears that Mailman (version 2.1.5) is only looking for the presence of the X-BeenThere: header, not comparing the contents to the list address : /usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/Approve.py: # has this message already been posted to this list? beentheres = [s.strip().lower() for s in msg.get_all('x-beenthere', [])] if mlist.GetListEmail().lower() in beentheres: raise Errors.LoopError This code is correct. It says make a list, beentheres, of the values of all the X-BeenThere: headers of the message (lower cased and stripped of leading and trailing whitespace). Then if this list's posting address (lower cased) is in that beentheres list raise the LoopError exception which results in the message being discarded. Thoughts? It seems really strange that Google would add an X-BeenThere: header with the forward-to address, but if in fact they are, you have to take this up with them. You could remove the code you quote above from Approve.py, but then you run the risk of mail bombing the list if there is a real loop. You could also change the name of the header from X-BeenThere to say X-X-BeenThere. to do that, you would replace 'x-beenthere' in the code you quote above from Approve.py with 'x-x-beenthere' and change the line msg['X-BeenThere'] = mlist.GetListEmail() in Mailman/Handlers/CookHeaders.py to msg['X-X-BeenThere'] = mlist.GetListEmail() You'd also need to change 'x-beenthere' to 'x-x-beenthere' one place in cron/gate_news if you are doing any usenet to Mailman gatewaying. -- Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.netThe highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.
