Hello Mark, For the possible alternative you mention below:
If we do set up the unsubscribe policy to "yes" and in the "unsubscribe MODERATORPASSWD address=user@example" command we include the moderator/owner password would that accomplish the removal of the user without confirmation? ************* A possible alternative is to set the list's Privacy options... -> Subscription rules -> unsubscribe_policy to yes and send unsubscribe [email protected] to the list's -request address. This will result in the unsubscribe (all unsubscribes) being held for admin approval, but the admin can't approve the held unsubscribe by email, so tha probably won't help. *********** -----Original Message----- From: Mailman-Users [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mark Sapiro Sent: Friday, July 15, 2016 10:56 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Mailman-Users] Mailman 2.1.2 unsubscribe without confirmation action This is an EXTERNAL EMAIL.

Only if the admin knows the user's list password. If so, the admin can send the command unsubscribe users_password [email protected] to the list's -request address, but it must be the user's list password. No other password will work.

You could consider patching Mailman/Commands/cmd_unsubscribe.py to accept the list admin password or some other secret as an alternate to the user's password. I think that's the only way. -- Mark Sapiro <[email protected]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
