Hi [Mailman 2.1.5, Debian sarge, exim 4, Apache 2]
I'm developing a new Mailman service here, and want to be able to change the available list of things that a mail owner/admin can change for their list. Some things I can configure from mm_cfg.py, but not everything. For instance, I do not want the list owner to be changed: this request has to come to the Computer Centre in other ways. There does not seem to be a way of restricting this by default. The only way I have currently found is to modify Mailman/Gui/General.py and comment out the admin section of the list that is returned. This does exactly what I want, but of course involves changing "program" files rather than "config" files. If there is no standard way of doing this, I will probably look at writing a patch where there is a list, say mm_cfg.RESTRICT_CHANGES, that contains all configuration sections that should not be shown. Is this a good idea? I would also like to hook into the subscription code to, do at least two things: automatically change all addresses with s/@le\.ac\.uk$/@leicester.ac.uk/ and to block subscription requests that match /@lists\.le(icester)?\.ac\.uk/ (I do not want to allow umbrella lists). Is there a standard way, or hook into the code, for doing this (on a site-wide basis, not per list)? Thanks for any help you can give! -- Matthew Newton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> UNIX and e-mail Systems Administrator, Network Support Section, Computer Centre, University of Leicester, Leicester LE1 7RH, United Kingdom ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [email protected] 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=show&file=faq01.027.htp
