[Mailman-Users] FAQ 5.3 localdomain.localhost problem
http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=all#5.3 I have the correct DEFAULT_HOST_NAME, DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST and DEFAULT_URL_HOST in mm_cfg.py and I am still getting emails with urls referring to localdomain.localhost in them. I have restarted mailman after the change. I noticed in Defaults.py there is a note that DEFAULT_HOST_NAME has been replaced with DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST. In any case, they are both defined and both correct. DEFAULT_HOST_NAME was NOT defined in my mm_cfg.py file when the problematic list was created. I added it to solve this problem. No other lists or new ones I create have this problem. This was the first list I created that has this problem. Ideas? -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py 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://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showamp;file=faq01.027.htp
Re: [Mailman-Users] FAQ 5.3 localdomain.localhost problem
I've updated FAQ 5.3 to clarify that DEFAULT_HOST_NAME should not be used and to reference FAQ 4.69 re: fix_url. withlist -l -r fix_url listname worked great.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Moving archives (from L-Soft LISTSERV toMailman)
Once you have a .mbox file, that's the hard part, really. It took me days to find a script to do this. Were I better at perl I could have probably done it myself, but I am not. I would strongly recommend performing this on a dummy list first, and then renaming the cleaned mbox file to import into your real list. Here's a quick and dirty, but hopefully complete set of steps to convert LISTSERV log archives to mailman mbox archives. What you need: - the .logxx files for the list, probably located in \LISTSERV\listname\ if you have access to the file system, otherwise you can get them with a combination of INDEX and GET commands to the LISTSERV processor. - the n2folder.pl script, which apparently shipped with some old version of a PINE conversion package. I think this is the same as a script called l2mail. I can't find where I got my clean, unwrapped copy but would make a copy available on request. 1. Make the case of the .logxx filenames uniform. It may not be, especially if the LISTSERV is on Windows. (e.g listname.log0404 and LISTNAME.LOG0404) 2. cat the log files to listname.notebook 3. run the perl script on the notebook file: perl n2folder.pl listname.notebook * This script copies the resulting converted file to the mail folder of the current user by default. * be prepared for the script to barf on poorly formatted dates. You may need to edit the .notebook file and run the script repeatedly. 4. copy and rename the notebook file from ~/mail/listname.notebook (or wherever you put it) to listname.dirty.mbox (or whatever to indicate it's not cleaned up) 5. /usr/local/mailman/bin/cleanarch listname.dirty.mbox listname.new.mbox 6. stop mailman 7. rename the currently active mailman list mbox if there is one in /listname.mbox/listname.mbox/ 8. cat listname.new.mbox listname.mbox.renamed listname.mbox 9. bin/arch --wipe listname 10. check the web archives to make sure they are ok. 11. Go back and clean up dates in bad messages, or clean up misinterpreted forwarded messages that were treated as sent messages. A single missing From line can screw up several messages. 12. lather, rinse, repeat #9-11 13. start mailman -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py 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://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showamp;file=faq01.027.htp
Re: [Mailman-Users] Moving archives (from L-Soft LISTSERV to Mailman)
Is is cumbersome or possible to move archives from a listserv running on L-Soft into Mailman. I just took over an existing list and created it on Mailman. There are archives from the old list I would like to import into Mailman. I am running Mailman 2.1.7. I cannot find anything in the listserv archives on this nor on google. If anyone can send me any links or information that would help. I just spent several days doing exactly this. I was going to write up a very quick procedure, because your right about there being no good reference. The faq's quoted in this thread are good starting points but not complete. You will need to do some fine tuning of the resulting .mbox file. In particular, listserv manages dates in its archives independently. Over five years of LISTSERV archives I had mail from 1967 to 2098, thanks to bad clocks on email senders. I'll see if I can put something together. You will need access to the LISTSERV .LOG files for the list, not the HTML archives. Do you have those? You can get them with a LISTSERV command if the list is still active. -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py 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://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showamp;file=faq01.027.htp

[Mailman-Users] Rebuilding archives, stop mailman?

Re: [Mailman-Users] Rebuilding archives, stop mailman?
My suggestion to minimize impact is to create a copy of the .mbox file in another directory, edit it as needed. Shut down mailman, move the file over to where it needs to be using the mv command. Restart mailman. Better safe than sorry. that very close to my plan -- I've already done the editing and /arch --wipe on a test system, but my main question was whether or not mailman should be running while the arch script was running. Sounds like it's not a good idea, which was my suspicion. -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py 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://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showamp;file=faq01.027.htp
[Mailman-Users] password reminders, subscribers with [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I have a mailing list set up to send monthly password reminders. Today, two of these reminder messages ended up in the Administrative requests for the list as being posted to the list from non-members. Coincidentally, the subscriber's email addresses are [EMAIL PROTECTED] Their email address usernames are the same as the name of the problematic list sending out the password reminders, but their complete email address is in another domain. I am running Mailman 2.1.8 on RHEL4 with Exim. Any ideas?
