 Why should the admin of one list be allowed to
 view/change information
 for a user's other subscriptions to lists of which
 she/he may not be
 the admin?
 

The scenario we have is that I am the list owner for
all the lists. And we have a controlled
subscription/unsubscription process whereas members
will need to fill out an online request form to
subscribe/unsubscribe, that I process manually.

so the common scenario is when someone requests to be
unsubscribed from all of the lists they are on, or
they leave the company and we need to remove them, we
need a way to quickly identify all the lists they are
on.

 
 Does anyone know of a way to resolve this
 issue so that I may 
 see
 what other lists a specific member is on?
 
 
 If you are the site admin, log on with the site
 password and you will
 be able to do this. If you are not the site admin,
 but you have access
 to the command line scripts, use bin/find_member.

I'm not the site admin and don't have access to the
command line scripts, unfortunately. But how do I log
on as the site admin to a list in order to view this?
I could get the site adming ID and password if needed.

Thanks,
Dave

 So you are in fact the site *Mailman* administrator.
 Sorry, I wasn't
 clear that that's what I meant when I said site
 admin.
 
 So the next stumbling block is whether this is your
 organization's
 Mailman installation vs. a virtual domain on a
 hosted installation. 

This is our organization's Mailman install on a local
server.

If
 the former, you should know the Mailman site
 password. Get whowever
 does have access to the command line scripts for
 Mailman to do
 bin/mmsitepas to set a site password for Mailman if
 there isn't
 already one and tell you what it is. Then, if you
 use this site
 password to access a list's admin interface rather
 than the list admin
 password, you will be able to see a users other
 subscriptions. 

If the site's password is the same one you need to use
when creating a new list, then I know that password. 

Would this be the password that you enter in the last
field on the create a new password page called List
creator's (authentication) password.?

Or,
 perhaps your IT staff can set up a way for you to
 run bin/find_member.

This might be an option, but I don't know if they
want to release that kind of access to me. I'm hoping
to get to this info via the method mentioned above.

The only interface I have to work with now is the web
interface.

Thanks guys,
Dave

[Mailman-Users] List My Other Subscriptions Not working

2006-09-19 Thread Dave Troiano
Hi all,

As list admin for over 90 lists, I have the need to
frequently perform an inquiry to see which lists a
member is subscribed to. 

As suggest here, this option is an ideal solution:


By extension, an admin of any list can go to the
membership list pages
and click any members address to get the members
options page and then
click the List my other subscriptions button to get
the names of all
the lists to which the member belongs.


But, my problem is that this is not working. I have
version 2.1.8.

When I try to do this, I receive the following error
message:

Note: The list administrator may not view the other
subscriptions for 
this
user.

It seems like this should work, and I should not be
receiving this 
error
message. Does anyone know of a way to resolve this
issue so that I may 
see
what other lists a specific member is on?

Please help!

Thank you in advance for any help.
