[Mailman-Users] extracting banned/rejected/discarded email addresses for exim blacklist
Is there an easy way to extract all the addresses which have been marked as follows in a mailman list setup - but for all lists? i.e. extract all addresses which are listed in: - banned from subscribing to the list - automatically reject posts from $these_addresses - automatically discard posts from $these_addresses It's taken me 30 minutes to manually copy-paste from 10 lists from a single install (with lots of duplicates involved) and I just don't have the time/patience to do it for up to 200 lists. What I'm trying to do is extract all those problem addresses, add to a file and do a `sort | uniq` on it and add it to exim's blacklist (which is another exercise in frustration due to format being $domain $sender and not [EMAIL PROTECTED]) Suggestions appreciated :-) (Ideally I want to setup a script to do this automatically on a regular basis and just add new addresses to exim's blacklist) Part of the reason I'm looking into this is that despite all my pleading some list-owners just won't admin their lists properly (and yes I know I can set a limit on max days to hold - but some legitimate mail might get lost then) -- | Bretton Vine | 083 633 8475 | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | GPG: http://bretton.hivemind.net/bretton_vine.asc | Solitary trees, if they grow at all, grow strong. - Sir Winston Churchill -- 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] MM lists on Gmane
At 5:09 PM -0400 9/18/06, John A. Martin quoted JC Dill: JC The list subscription policy is that it is not OK to setup a JC public archive without specific permission. When a JC subscription request is accepted the list server is saying JC yes to personal archives, and no to public archives JC without specific permission. Gmane ignores this distinction. Where are those restrictions expressed. I do not see them at http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users. I do not see them in either the subscription challenge mail nor in the welcome mail pertaining to a recent subscription to mailman-users. That's a very valid point. I thought we'd already covered this problem last time the Gmane issue came up, but obviously not. I'll talk to JC offline and see if we can work up some suggested improvements to the wording of the respective templates and then we can see what Barry thinks. Once we have a consensus, one of us will make the appropriate changes. -- Brad Knowles, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety. -- Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790), reply of the Pennsylvania Assembly to the Governor, November 11, 1755 Founding Individual Sponsor of LOPSA.

i.e. extract all addresses which are listed in:

- automatically discard posts from $these_addresses
bin/dumpdb list path/config.pck will give you access to all the
pickled data inside a config, which includes ban_list,
discard_these_nonmembers, and reject_these_nonmembers.
Here's a bash hack using grep, tr, and cut to do it:
#!/bin/bash
DUMPDB=/usr/lib/mailman/bin/dumpdb
LISTPATH=/var/lib/mailman/lists/
PCK=`$DUMPDB $LISTPATH/$1/config.pck | tr \n | tr -s `
{ for i in ban_list discard_these_nonmembers reject_these_nonmembers
do
echo $PCK | grep -Eo '$i': \[[^]]*\] | cut -d ':' -f 2 | tr -d
[][' ] # | tr , \n
done; } | tr , \n | tr -s \n | sort | uniq
Put that in a file, e.g. 'script', and run: ./script listname.
You'll probably need to fix DUMPDB= and LISTPATH=.
You can wrap this in something like: for i in `list_lists -b` to
automate over all lists.

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.

You can use the site admin password to create lists, but IIRC there can also be a separate list creator password, at least in more recent versions of Mailman. I have never personally seen a list creator password, I've always just used the main site admin password. The only interface I have to work with now is the web interface. The kind of information you're asking for is not available via the web.

I created these messages with a script that saved its output to a file, then used: mailx -s subject [EMAIL PROTECTED] filename.html If you build the message yourself, as opposed to using a MIME-aware MUA, then yes -- you will also need to build the necessary MIME headers and internal infrastructure. However, this can be a complex subject, and I would recommend that you at least look into command-line utilities that can help make this process easier. I can't think of the names of the toolkits off the top of my head, but you should be able to find them pretty easily with Google. But do keep in mind that even command-line MUAs like mailx won't let you control your own headers. If you want to control the headers, you will need to feed your formatted message directly to sendmail or some other comparable message submission agent. When I've done that in the past, it's looked something like: sendmail -t [EMAIL PROTECTED] /path/to/message If only there is a command line mailer that will allow me to add the mime type header to the email, then that would allow the message to display correctly in both my email client, and the list archives. I'd bet that mutt could do that, since it is the MUA that was originally written by the guy who also wrote the PGP/MIME RFC, so he clearly knows both his crypto/PGP stuff and his MIME stuff. Note that mutt does give you some control over what goes in the headers, but mostly that's for putting in your own X- headers and not doing critical things like mucking about with the MIME structure of the message. -- Brad Knowles, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety. -- Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790), reply of the Pennsylvania Assembly to the Governor, November 11, 1755 Founding Individual Sponsor of LOPSA.

Perhaps anyone having used majordomo as well as MM will know of what I ask: Don't use inject.
