How does pipermail generated the threaded view. In our installation the 
threaded view of the testlist is identical to to date view. 

Something wrong here, but what?

[Mailman-Users] Removing Yahoo ads.

2001-10-31 Thread Feorag NicBhride

My list has a few people using Yahoo! e-mail addresses. Unfortunately,
this adds advertising to both the messages these members sends and, worst
of all, puts this advertising into the archive on my site. As I have yet
to receive a large cheque from Yahoo!, I would like to excise this
advertising before the messages are passed onto the list or put into the
archive. Anyone done this?

There is no problem -yet-.
2.0.6 is running well, 2.1.x is in beta but it has some new
features I'd really like to be using. I installed it [2.1.x] while running 7.1
and has a problem with it not recognizing the new templates.
I keep really good backups, and restored 2.0.6. and was back in business
as before.
I'm looking for input from anyone who has installed (upgraded) 2.0.6 to 2.1x 
beta **and** did it on RH 7.2 (or roswell 7.1-94)

[Mailman-Users] Long delay before delivering

2001-10-31 Thread Edwin Ringersma

Check through archives, but didn't find anything like my problem.

I'm experiencing long delays between actual delivery to mailman wrapper and 
the delivery to the mailboxes of the subscribed users.
Crontab is installed as suggested. so qrunner every minute, gate_news every 
5 minutes.
Anybody have a similar experience and hopefully a solution ?

 In our installation the threaded view of the testlist is identical

Then the MUAs your users are using are not generating correct

How long?

 Crontab is installed as suggested. so qrunner every minute,
 gate_news every 5 minutes.  

First guesses are:

  -- a poorly configured MTA (especially sendmail)
  -- a high percentage of bad/slow MXes
  -- no local cacheing nameserver and a very slow external nameserver

Compiled into ~mailman/cgi-bin/listinfo is the home directory of Mailman, 
and the assumtion that the lists will be found off the home directory in 
lists/.  
If you have moved the home directory for Mailman or the list directory - or 
your webserver cannot read the list/ directory, then you will get that 
message.

Personally I would start by looking at the rights of the directories.

You can also use the strings command to look inside the listinfo cgi to see 
what it is looking for.

[Mailman-Users] mysterious error shell-init: could not get current directory

2001-10-31 Thread Lucas Hofman

I have just installed Mailman on a Linux box with postfix as the MTA. I have 
a test list with 4 subscribers. 

Now and then (note the uncertaincy of when) is the following block of errors 
displayed on a console window of the machine where Mailman is installed:

shell-init: could not get current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent 
directories: No such file or directory
shell-init: could not get current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent 
directories: No such file or directory
shell-init: could not get current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent 
directories: No such file or directory
shell-init: could not get current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent 
directories: No such file or directory

I think this is related to posting, but cannot repeat it at will. The list 
appears to work OK, except for the threaded view of the archive. It is 
formatted excacted like the 'date' view.

Anybody seen this?

No, as long as you use ~mailman/bin/add_members instead of trying to paste

[Mailman-Users] mailman and qmail using virtual domains

2001-10-31 Thread Chris Nestrud

Hello all. I'm trying to set up mailman 2.0.6 using qmail as my MTA. I'm
using qmail's virtual domain feature to send all mail from subdomain
mailman to user mailman, and using the included qmail-to-mailman python
script to route mail to the correct place. I have the mailman subdomain
in /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts and /var/qmail/control/virtualdomains,
and sending mail to a created list works. The mail is delivered into the
list's mbox file. However, the message is not resent to anyone who is
not a user of the local machine. The ~mailman/logs/smtp log says the
messages are sent, ~mailman/logs/error has no errors, and the qmail logs
don't show any mail being sent out. I've gotten everything else to work,
but this problem is baffling. I'm using user mailman's group, mailman,
as the mail-gid and not getting any errors.

Any suggestions?

Chris

RE: [Mailman-Users] Long delay before delivering

2001-10-31 Thread Wiebe van der Worp

In my opinion it is as follows:
The pauses in delivery are most likely caused by failure to find the host
for the domains being sent to.  The messages get queued and then are
delivered later.  The fault server is usually the server being sent to, not
the one sending.

[Mailman-Users] Forwarding loop?

I've been getting the following error message every time 
I send a message to a list.  A number of other users have 
commented that they are getting the same message when 
they send a message to the list.  The message subject is 
Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender.

This is the Postfix program at host mail.otherwhen.com.

I'm sorry to have to inform you that the message 
returned below could not be delivered to one or more 
destinations.

For further assistance, please send mail to postmaster

If you do so, please include this problem report. You can
delete your own text from the message returned below.

I looked, and the list is not subscribed to itself.   And the 
messages in question are delivered to the list.

System description - AMD K6-3, 450mhz, 128 megs of

I'm pretty sure this isn't a Postfix issue, and I am 
confused.  

Does anyone have any ideas what might be causing this?

hack it :)
1-create a new list call it test
2-enter the password for the list
3- open the config.db of the test list and search for
password
4- in front of it you will see something like this
QI35687p7U193s  write it down .
5- now open config.db of the list you forgot the password,
and overwrite the password with the above string you wrote
down.
Now the password of your list should be same as test list.

I have done it and it works

Cheers

Sounds like a poor MTA configuration.  It could also be the old
pipermail performance problem, much improved in 2.0.5 and improved
yet again in 2.0.6, and hopefully fixed in 2.1.

 I've noticed qrunner hanging and using cpu-cycles. Killing it, and
 removing lockfiles put the mails that where waiting through
 immediately (when qrunner was called by crontab).  I guess
 qrunners hanging is the problem. What causes this I don't know.

Sounds like the archiver/pipermail problem.
