1. Is there no capability to edit moderated messages? I have a couple of moderated members that have asked me to edit their messages, and I don't see how. (FYI, they tend to promote their own products within their otherwise extremely valuable posts).
There is no real capability to edit moderated messages, no. There is what I would classify as a work-around, described in FAQ 3.9 at <http://wiki.list.org/x/24A9>.
If you go to the Mailman FAQ landing page at <http://wiki.list.org/display/DOC/Frequently+Asked+Questions> and do a search on "edit moderated", this should be the second item that shows up on the list.
3. More of a comment than a question. Mailman archives do not perfectly allow importing Eudora mailboxes, even though they are a form of mbox-formatted mailboxes. Most messages seem to do fine but maybe (I am not sure) those few that do not import well have a blank line before Eudora's "From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [date time]" header. Not sure if that is the cause, but it is possible.
Eudora mailboxes are not in proper 7th edition mbox format, so they cannot be imported directly. You need to get that "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" crap fixed to be something reasonable before you can import them.
Why the hell Eudora decided to be so damn stupid as to use something that is almost-but-not-quite a proper mbox format I will never know, but then Eudora is dead so I guess the point is more or less moot.
4. Finally, I want to reiterate the desire for a web-based interface for responding to messages. I'd estimate that 5-10% of my list members used this feature when we were at Topica. I also would value a way for admins to remove individual messages from the archives through a web-based . I understand that work on Mailman is done by a handful of dedicated volunteers, and I do appreciate the software and its robustness. I appreciate you folks that put so much time and energy into it and into helping us users.
These things are on the list, and may be addressed in Mailman3. I don't know if we'll get a chance to look at them before then.
If you have code you can contribute to fix these issues, that would greatly speed up things between now and whenever a future version of Mailman3 might ship that may address them.
