[Mailman-Users] Problem with making a new list
I installed RedHat 7.3 recently with mailman 2.0.9? I think. Without checking to see if it worked, I upgraded immediately to the latest on the list.org website. I got all sorts of errors so I reinstalled the RPM version rather than the tar version. Now Im back to 2.0.9. Now, when I make my test list I dont get the nasty errors I had before, but it never emails the email address I specify to be the admin. Any idea what would cause this? Something in config files maybe? Im fairly new to the software. I did the same process on a similar server I have without messing around with different packages and it worked flawlessly. What could have messed up when I reinstalled the RPM (rpm install force file.rpm). Any help is appreciated, I need to get this done asap. Thanks Matt

[Mailman-Users] mails from the namelist-bounce
We take care of a Newsletter with 2.1b2+-Mailman and we have a problem: when someone fills the registration form, receives the confirmaton of the registration with a welcome and 2 mails from the namelist-bounce that explain the process of registration. We would like that the user would not receive these two last mails. How can we do? Thank you Alessandra Ferlenga ___ Datasiel S.p.A. Regione Liguria - I.T.

Barry A. Warsaw wrote: Setting up an announce-only list /ought/ to be much easier in MM2.1. - You can disable the List-Post: header separately, since it isn't meaningful for announce-only lists. - You can set a moderate flag on all your members (and for any new members that later join). - You can set an automatic action when a post comes from a moderated member. The action can be something like reject this message or discard this message. - You can set up an automatic action when a post comes from a non-member, similar to the above. - If your allowed posters are members of the list, simply turn off their moderation flag and their posts will go straight through. If your allowed posters are not members, add their address to the accept_these_nonmembers list.

Re: [Mailman-Users] unauthorized people can send mails to the list ...
Why can't you make *ALL* posts to the list subject to confirmation by the listowner? In other words, make the list totally moderated? Then you make only those who are able to post, moderators? When Susan posts an announcement to the list, she herself goes and validates it through the web interface? Thats possible way but there are two things I dont like with it: i) now I just discard all mails from moderated people. I dont know why people are mailing to this adress, but we have about 5 mails per day and the moderators are not bothered with this mails cause they are just deleted. If I authenticate via moderation-approval then the moderators have to deal with this 5 mails. ii) If Susan sends a mail, the other five people allowed to post and therefore moderators also get this mail which might cause confusions (cause they are just users that dont even understand why there is a listserver now, if one can copy/paste all adresses into outlook also ;) thnx, peter -- mag. peter pilsl IT-Consulting tel: +43-699-1-3574035 fax: +43-699-4-3574035 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- 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
[Mailman-Users] 2.1b2 membership management question
Greetings; We're moving from listproc to mailman. I have the 2.1 beta up and running because some of our current list owners missed the proper names feature included in listproc. My questions is, is there a way to include the names in the bulk subscription or subscription by file option, or do you have to enter the names individually after subscription? Mailman removes the white space if space delimited, and ignored it when I tried putting quotes around it.

[Mailman-Users] mailman-2.1b2 / linux install problem
Hi all, I find mailman-2.1b2 quite difficult to install on a linux redhat 7.2 system (problems with file permissions). I install from the sources, following instructions from INSTALL and INSTALL.POSTFIX. My setup: apache (running with uid apache) postfix (running as 'postfix') (both installed form redhat rpms). configure with: ./configure --with-python=`which python2` --with-mail-gid=mailman --with-cgi-gid=apache make install ^^^ ^^ (--with-mail-gid=mailman is stated in README.POSTFIX) The aliases are in data/aliases, created with the following permissions, as stated in INSTALL: # ls -l data drwxrwsr-x2 mailman mailman 4096 May 25 09:22 data # ls -l data/ali* -rw-rw1 mailman mailman 1198 May 25 09:22 data/aliases -rw-r--r--1 mailman mailman 12288 May 25 09:19 data/aliases.db I ran check_perm and genaliases, and did setup httpd.conf and main.cf correctly. BUT, when I try to create a list through the web, I get: Bug in Mailman version 2.1b2 We're sorry, we hit a bug! RuntimeError: command failed: /usr/sbin/postalias /usr/local/mailman/data/aliases (status: 1, Operation not permitted) After some investigations, I noticed that Postfix.py (and thus postalias) is running with UID=apache, GID=mailman, groups=[apache] Can someone help me ? thanks, Emmanuel -- 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

[Mailman-Users] slow web administration
Hey there folks, Not sure if anyone else has run across this issue, but it's slowly driving me batty. I currently have mailman 2.0.9-1 running on a Xeon 800 with 500 megs of ram. It has a single mailing list with roughly 450,000 subscribers. I've found that accessing the web interface for administration is incredibly slow. Is there any way to speed that up, or to handle pending admin tasks from the command line? When watching system processes, I notice that python takes up virtually all available CPU when it's loading the web interface. Thanks in advance for any and all assistance.

No - the aliases file should take care of that with the line: sonar: |/var/mailman/mail/wrapper post sonar Make sure that you run the postalias command to compile the info into the database. :) Jim Hale --- Jim Kathy's Website Collection http://hale.dyndns.org -Original Message- From: Alonso Landauro Canales [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, May 27, 2002 8:26 PM To: 'Jim Hale'; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Mailman-Users] Install question Jim I still have the answer of user unknow, but I think I am very close to finish.

After your do that, change to the '/etc/postfix' folder, run 'postalias /etc/postfix/aliases' and then sending mail to the list should work fine. :) Jim Hale --- Jim Kathy's Website Collection http://hale.dyndns.org -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Alonso Landauro Canales Sent: Monday, May 27, 2002 7:41 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Mailman-Users] Install question Jim I think I have the same problem, Would you please give me an example of setuping my aliases?

Sendmail is at version 8.11.6 What have I missed that allows Mailman to create users?? Thanks!

[Mailman-Users] bin/newlist hangs after initial password entered
system: redhat 7.1 with all available updates for packages that I have installed. versions of related packages: mailman-2.0.11 Python 1.5.2 sendmail 8.11.6-2.7.1 apache 1.3.22-1.7.1 so, I've doubled checked all the steps in the INSTALL file and the related README files. When I run cd to /home/mailman and run bin/newlist, it hangs after I enter the password at the Initial $listname password: prompt. I've given it as long as 15 minutes, and it still just sits there. I'd expect it to prompt me to confrim the password at the point, but alas, nothing. I've tried running newlist as both root and mailman (both su'd to those accounts and having logged in directly with those accounts via ssh) here's the command exactly as I'm running it and the first few prompts up to the time it hangs: [root@rattletrap mailman]# bin/newlist -o nloutput Enter the name of the list: test Enter the email of the person running the list: steven_at_shults.org Initial test password: and that's where it hangs Here's what I find in /var/log/messages while waiting for a response: May 27 18:12:55 rattletrap sshd(pam_unix)[16170]: session opened for user root by (uid=0) and here's what I get after giving up on newlist and hitting ^c (ctrl-c): Traceback (innermost last): File bin/newlist, line 220, in ? main() File bin/newlist, line 169, in main mlist.Create(listname, owner_mail, pw) File /home/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py, line 786, in Create self.__lock.lock() File /home/mailman/Mailman/LockFile.py, line 286, in lock self.__sleep() File /home/mailman/Mailman/LockFile.py, line 424, in __sleep time.sleep(interval) KeyboardInterrupt [root@rattletrap mailman]# any ideas folks? tia, ~steven -- 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
