[Mailman-Users] Help?
I've done something stupid, and I don't know how to get out of it. I'm a moderator for the Knittingbeyondthehebrides group and I've accidentally banned a member. I was half-awake and accidentally clicked on the permanent ban button instead of approving her. Now I can't figure out how to get around that and approve the poor woman. Can you help? Is it possible to remove the ban from your end so that I may approve the membership?

Cough that's GNU Mailman, not the trademarked ListServ as I'm sure Mark will point out in a moment ;) Also, this isn't mail...@listserv.bnsi.net but the mailing list for users of Mailman.

Cichon, Joan L *HS wrote: My ListServ seems to have gone missing. Mailman is not ListServ[1] although perhaps you can be forgiven seeing that even your hosting service doesn't know the difference. I keep emailing you to get assistance (see below) and can't seem to get an answer. Please respond. mailman-users@python.org can't help you with this. The fact that uour host doesn't know the difference between Listserv and Mailman suggests that they also do not actually receive mail sent to mail...@listserv.bnsi.net. You will have to contact them in some other way. [1] I know that use of Listserv(r) as a generic term to refer to an email list or email list management software is ubiquitious, and I'm just pissing in the wind to fight it, but Listserv(r) is a registered trademark[2] owned by the developer of a particular email list management product, and it shouldn't be used generically. My personal interest in this is not to protect the Listserv(r) trademark, but rather to avoid confusing Listserv(r) email list management software with any other email list management software including GNU Mailman of which I am a developer.

I am guessing he wants *one* user database, You guess correctly. This is because my web hoster limits the number of MySQL databases that one can have. From looking elsewhere that doesn't appear uncommon with Australian hosters. *one* message database/archive, etc, etc, which presents various different faces to users depending one whether they access via mail, news, or forum. Exactly correct. That's why Barry is focusing on various kind of adaptors, so that different functions can share certain databases.
