[Mailman-Users] Moderation bit not working?
I continue to receive alerts on my list for *one particular user *when they attempt to post to the list: > *post from i...@example.com requires approval* > The user has been added to the member list with the moderation toggle off. As far as I can tell they are identical to other members that don't trigger this alert and who's messages are automatically sent to the list. Is there some additional step I need to take to allow this member to send messages to the list without the need to approve them? Any ideas what might be going wrong here? -- Mailman-Users mailing list -- mailman-users@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to mailman-users-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/mailman-users.python.org/ Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: https://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users@python.org/ https://mail.python.org/archives/list/mailman-users@python.org/

Help, someone? When the moderation bit for a member is turned on, that member gets an error message when trying to post a message. The error message says Your message could not be processed because of an internal error (software problem). We are very sorry. The system administrator has been notified of the problem. I'm sure this message is pretty generic therefore not much help. The message is no where to be found in any log that I can see and it never gets to the tend to pending moderator requests mode. Anyway, this happened after our system got upgraded from Fedora Core 3 to 7. The Mailman version is 2.1.4. Is there something I may have missed in the upgrade that would cause Mailman's moderation bit to act up? I've only been introduced to Mailman as the administrator since July last year.

Re: [Mailman-Users] moderation bit silently turns off on some lists
Thanks for this advice,
Very helpful - thought I'd write back to update you on what I did ... I
incorperated your ideas, especially as regards trying and excepting. I
refined my original idea a bit more too ... I decided the safest way to do
things was to initially set everyone as moderated, and then only go through
those that are admins and set their mod bits to off.
so here is the script. actually, one more small question - the line that
prints the error: should it have after the print command? Is that a part
of the python language I'm not familiar with, or is it something an email
client stuck in ?!?!
Thanks a lot,

[Mailman-Users] moderation bit silently turns off on some lists
Hi there,
I operate a number of mailing lists. Some of these lists are announce only
lists. The annouce only lists work by setting everyone's moderation bit to
1 apart from those that have posting permission. This is done
automatically by a script that takes its data from a remote database via a
text file that is created when requested. (and yes, I know that's a long
winded way of doing things!)
But every now and again on some lists (its only happened so far on large
lists) all the moderation bits are set to 0 allowing anyone to post. Any
ideas why this would be?
Below are the script that sets posting permissions [A] and a sample of the
text file that inputs into this script [B].
Any ideas why this would happen? As always, many thanks if you can help.
PS I don't blame you if you tell me to use a simpler solution. In fact, I
agree and I am completley redoing the project getting rid of the manual
synching and using default mailman admin interface. But in the mean time it
is still a problem that I would be really grateful if someone could help me
find a solution to.

Someone could log on to the admin interface and set everyone off using
the button under Additional Member Tasks on the Membership List page.
Some script could do it.
I know of no way Mailman would do it automatically.

As far as recommendations for a different way, I would set Privacy
options...-Sender filters-default_member_moderation to Yes if it
isn't already. Then I would set everyone to Moderated using the button
under Additional Member Tasks on the Membership List page.
At this point all members are moderated and all new members will be
moderated by default.
Then I would have the authorized posters post using an Approved: header
with the list's moderator password, but if you wish to have them be
unmoderated, just unmoderate them manually via the admin interface.
Unless the authorized posters change frequently, this should not be
too burdensome.

It can be done, but it is tricky. You have to call the list method to
do it.
The config file is the one obtained from the ./config_list -o list.conf
MyList.
When I specify this in
owner = ['[EMAIL PROTECTED]', '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', '[EMAIL PROTECTED]']
moderator = ['[EMAIL PROTECTED]', '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', '[EMAIL
PROTECTED]']
it does not help, the message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] waits for approving.
You made these addresses both owner and moderator which is redundant
and only means that they will receive notices for the owner/moderator.
It has nothing to do with posting. Go to the FAQ wizard
http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py and see FAQ's 3.27, 3.45
and 3,60 for more on this.
I set up this further settings:
default_member_moderation = True
member_moderation_action = 0
generic_nonmember_action = 3
I tried to setup the config like here
http://www.modwest.com/help/kb13-195.html, but I think this is the case I
have now - any message that came to the list is moderated, without
exceptions. But I want these exceptions - some people can post without
moderation.
See FAQ 3.11 for our advice on this.
Can anyone help me? If you want to know any other options I have in the
config, let me know please.
Why can't you use the web interface?
We don't want to use the web interface, because we don't want to have another
software running on our mailserver - we understand it as another possible
security hole.
from Mailman import mm_cfg
mlist.setMemberOption('[EMAIL PROTECTED]', mm_cfg.Moderate, 0)
del mm_cfg
This works, I used this, thanks!

Why can't you use the web interface? If you can't use the web
interface, you must be approving posts by email which means you know
how to use the Approved: header. The best way to post to an announce
list is to use the Approved: header with the list password in the
post. If you do this, the post will not be held.
If you allow certain, unmoderated members to post, anyone can post by
spoofing their address. See FAQ 3.11 and 3.34 for more on this.
If you still want to unmoderate a specific user, and you can't use the
web, you can put the following 3 lines in input to config_list.
from Mailman import mm_cfg
mlist.setMemberOption('[EMAIL PROTECTED]', mm_cfg.Moderate, 0)
del mm_cfg
You can put additional mlist.setMemberOption() lines between the first
one and the del mm_cfg line.
