I do not understand what you mean by When i go to the archives, the
search fields appear 3 or 4 times. 
Does this mean that multiple copies of the search form appear on a given
archived list's TOC page or what? If that is the case then can you
forward directly to me a copy of the list's TOC page HTML.
If my understanding of your meaning is wrong, can you supply a better
description of the problem so that I can try and reproduce the
problem.
Richard
Oh and by the way, they are not plugins. They are patches.


[Mailman-Users] mailman-htdig integration patch for MM 2.1b3

2002-08-15 Thread Richard Barrett

The first version of this MM 2.1b3 compatible patch (htdig-2.1b3-0.1.patch) 
that I uploaded yesterday introduces a syntax error at line 721 of 
$prefix/Mailman/Archiver/HyperArch.py

The effect of this error may be to introduce copious error logging from the 
ArchRunner qrunner.

Anybody affected has my apologies.

A revised patch (htdig-2.1b3-0.2.patch) has now been uploaded which fixes 
this error.

How to get Mailman to support ALL your Virtual domains on Postfix
This was done on Mandrake 8.2 prosuite server with an Openwall security 
patched kernel
with Postfix-20010228-pl08, Apache-AdvancedExtranetServer/1.3.23 and 
Mailman 2.09

in terms of postix specific configurations you need to use two files 
which you will call out in your main.cf
like so

alias_database = hash:/etc/postfix/aliases
alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/aliases
smtpd_recipient_restrictions = reject_invalid_hostname,   
   permit_mynetworks,
   reject_non_fqdn_recipient, 
   check_client_access
   hash:/etc/postfix/pop-before-smtp, 
   check_relay_domains
   virtual_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual

they (virtual and aliases) are both essentially tables, mapping the users 
to specific virtual domains and also
virtual users to their user accounts either local or remote.

I am using two files to do this one is /etc/postfix/virtual the other is
/etc/postfix/aliases
the table i am using to make virual domains itself work is 
/etc/postfix/virtual and should look
something like this inside of it
###
# beginning of /etc/postfix/virtual file ##
 ###
 ##   ##
 ### this is my first virtual domain ###
 ##   ##
 ###
one_of_my_domains.com virtual
mail.one_of_my_domains.com virtual
[EMAIL PROTECTED] user1
[EMAIL PROTECTED] user2
[EMAIL PROTECTED] sales1
[EMAIL PROTECTED] info1
[EMAIL PROTECTED] webmaster1
 ##
 ##  ##
 ### first mailing list on domain 1 ###
 ##  ##
 ##
[EMAIL PROTECTED]   test
[EMAIL PROTECTED]test-admin
[EMAIL PROTECTED]  test-request
[EMAIL PROTECTED]test-owner
  #
  ## ##
  ### next list ###
  ## ##
  #
[EMAIL PROTECTED]foobar
[EMAIL PROTECTED] foobar-admin
[EMAIL PROTECTED]foobar-request
[EMAIL PROTECTED]  foobar-owner
 ###
 ##   ## 
 ### next virtual domain ###
 ##   ##
 ###
someone_elses_domain.net virtual
mail.someone_elses_domain.net virtual
[EMAIL PROTECTED] anotheruser
[EMAIL PROTECTED] user3
[EMAIL PROTECTED] sales2
[EMAIL PROTECTED] info2
[EMAIL PROTECTED] webmaster2
   ##
   ##  ##
   ###  mailing list on second domain ###
   ##  ##
   ##
[EMAIL PROTECTED]   test
[EMAIL PROTECTED]test-admin
[EMAIL PROTECTED]  test-request
[EMAIL PROTECTED]test-owner
#
## ##
### next list ###
## ##
#
[EMAIL PROTECTED]boofar
[EMAIL PROTECTED] boofar-admin
[EMAIL PROTECTED]boofar-request
[EMAIL PROTECTED]  boofar-owner
 end of /etc/postfix/virtual file #
###

that does the mapping of the virtual domains and also gets mailman going 
on the 
virtual domains, each new list you create must be added in here in the 
same fashion
and also in your /etc/postfix/aliases file if your doing any user account 
mapping as we are above by having [EMAIL PROTECTED] and 
[EMAIL 

[Mailman-Users] Moving mailman to new server and upgrading mailman

2002-08-15 Thread Adam Brons

I'm looking for some advice, here's the situation:

I have mailman 1.x installed on server 'A'.  We're upgrading mailman to
2.x but we're also moving it to server 'B'.  On server 'A' the install
directory for mailman is /usr0/mailman.  On server 'B' the install
directory for mailman is going to be /usr1/mailman.  

Symlinking /usr0/mailman to /usr1/mailman on server 'B' is NOT an option.

Would it be easier to just do a fresh install of mailman 2.x on server 'B'
and manually migrate the lists from the old server following the steps in
UPGRADING and fixing whatever else may arise.  Or should I copy the
installation on server 'A' to server 'B' go through and make all the
changes where the path is wrong and then do a make install of mailman 2.x
on top of mailman 1.x?  Or is there some much easier way to do this?  

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

[Mailman-Users] Counting the number of new subscribers from a certain age

2002-08-15 Thread Jonathan Chum

Hi,

I didn't see any tools that would do this but after poking around with a few
utlities, I came up with this tool, list_members in the bin directory.

I played with it and it dumps the users, but each time it ran, it didn't
dump the users in any certain order, randomly. . . If he dumped it out from
the oldest subscriber to the newest subscriber, maybe then can I code a
script that searches for an individual then count how many new users were
added since that individual.

That's the goal I was trying to achive is counting the number of new
subscribers.

Any ideas of how I could acheive this?

Jonathan Chum

[Mailman-Users] Apache errors causing user-management problems

2002-08-15 Thread Stephen R Laniel

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

I've recently had some Apache problems, which started when I encountered
this bug:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=155939repeatmerged=yes

I used the hack that they mentioned at the bottom of that bug, then
upgraded to the latest unstable build of Apache when it came out. This
fixed Apache, which I can now use to load my Website
(http://www.laniels.org/ , if you want to confirm it).

At least one problem is left: I'm having troubles now subscribing new
members to my lists. When I try to do that, I get the mailman message
that we've hit a bug; when I look in the error log, the following looks
like the relevant error:

admin(5271): [- Mailman Version: 2.0.12 -]
admin(5271): [- Traceback --]
admin(5271): Traceback (most recent call last):
admin(5271):   File /var/lib/mailman/scripts/driver, line 98, in run_main

ValidateEmail
admin(5271): realname,str = rfc822.parseaddress(str)
admin(5271): AttributeError: 'rfc822' module has no attribute
'parseaddress'


I think the problem is that somewhere along the line, I downgraded
libc6 back to an earlier version to fix my Apache problems, and apt
*removed* some of my packages; I must have keyed too quickly through
apt-get when it did this. I think it probably removed some package
that's important to mailman.

I tried reinstalling mailman (apt-get install --reinstall mailman), and
apt did as I said. I still get the same problems, though; I still can't
subscribe new members. Any idea what might be the problem? It looks like
the rfc822 module got downgraded, or removed, or something. But a quick
scan through apt-cache doesn't show any package where rfc822 and
python appear together. Might this be the problem?

Thanks,
Steve

[Mailman-Users] Subscribe like majordomo or listserv

2002-08-15 Thread zeek


Greetings,

I asked this question earlier but I don't think it was clearly articulated.
Since then I've searched far and wide for answers but have not found them.


I'd like to provide a single address that would make queries to all lists
available listname[EMAIL PROTECTED] won't suffice.  This address would
allow for such commands as help, lists, show listname, and etc. As
far as I can tell there is no way to do this with mailman at this time. If
there is and I'm overlooking it, please let me know. If there really isn't,
is this slated as a future feature? Hey, that sounds kinda funny.

Cheers,

 have a file with the listname, listadmin-addr, and a default password. 
 I would like to have newlist read this file and generate the lists in a

This is just an idea, untested:

Run another MTA process, maybe on another port proxied out and have procmail
filter out the list traffic. This 2nd MTA process would have to run in queue
only mode until you want them sent out. Then just set up a crontab to change
the MTA args and send a SIGHUP.

RE: [Mailman-Users] Add Security Features in PHP

Hi Wash,

I am sorry that I didn't make it clear.  I have a web collaboration tool
that is using the Mailman for the mailing list service.  Every user is
required to log in in order to use the collaboration tool.  The security
checking that I was talking about is to check user's person status against
Boeing's internal database.  All this security/log in checking is written in
php.  What I am saying is that I don't want any users access Mailman pages
unless he/she is logged in.  I don't know really know how to program in
Python yet.

Is there anyway that I can interface Mailman with PHP code?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Mary,

What do you feel is lacking (so far) in terms of the security that mailman
provides? Not that I am negating your question. I am still so new to mailman
but I am also satisfied with the level of security that it gives so far, in
terms of access to list admin, members list, archives. Well maybe for me I'm
not anal about security but those seem enough to me.
Maybe you should join the dev team and introduce new features ;-)

Hi Mary ,


Any chance that you can use a .htaccess on the mailman pages - that ht.access
authentication against Boeing's Internal DB?? Apache has got something called
mod_auth_* modules you can use with your Db, for example you can look at this:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/mod_auth_dbm.html

as a start

just my US$ 0.02 ;-)

Even if the resources are stretched, the new version should do a better job 
of handling the checks for sending out Digests.


 Other stuff:
 Duplicate and frivolous subscriptions are annoying, and a discard
 option
 for
 sub. requests would be much appreciated. Awareness of a pre-existing
 sub.
 request from the same address should be implemented. Rejection just
 confuses
 legitimate (albeit impatient) subscribers, and encourages people who are

Available in the new version


 messing around to keep trying. In the same vein, the ability to
 modify/eliminate
 the default rejection message for posts would avoid antagonizing people
 who
 need coaching now and then. If true moderation and customization of all
 the
 various messages is forthcoming, then that's ideal.

Also available in the new version

[Mailman-Users] No such file or directory: '/home/mailman/qfiles/x.msg'

Hello:

Maybe, somebody of you know about the following error:

Aug 15 01:30:02 2002 qrunner(2047): OSError :  [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 
'/home/mailman/qfiles/x.msg'
Aug 15 01:31:01 2002 qrunner(2054): Traceback (innermost last):
Aug 15 01:31:01 2002 qrunner(2054):   File /home/mailman/cron/qrunner, line 283, in ?
Aug 15 01:31:01 2002 qrunner(2054):  kids = main(lock)
Aug 15 01:31:01 2002 qrunner(2054):   File /home/mailman/cron/qrunner, line 205, in

My queue (qfiles) is full of messages, but Mailman is not sending e-mails.

Thanks.

[Mailman-Users] Re: Mailman or Postfix error?

You swapped the | and / characters.

Christopher Adams:
 I am unsure if this is a Postfix error or Mailman. I apologize if it doesn't
 pertain to whatever list you subscribe to. I have read some of the archives and
 seems to be a permission problem. I would most appreciate it if someone could
 point me in the right direction. Here is the message that I get when I post a
 message to a list. I have other functional lists, but all new lists created
 result in this problem, though even that behavior is variable, which makes it
 really hard to figure out.

[Mailman-Users] Mailman broken in Debian 3.0

2002-08-15 Thread Barry A. Warsaw


With Ben's permission I'm forwarding this message to these lists.
We'll have to add this to the faqwiz at the least, and probably the
MM2.0.x README file (although I'm hoping to avoid a 2.0.14 :).

Brace yourselves,
-Barry


---BeginMessage---

Just to let you get a heads-up, you're going to get a ton of complaints 
and bug reports (if you haven't already) from people doing fresh 
installs of Debian 3.0 (woody), recently released.

The package maintainer moved the lock directory to /var/lock/mailman, 
but forgot to set the permissions to root:list 2775.  You'll probably 
want to add this to any FAQs you might have, because every CD pressed 
and every net install of Debian 3.0 will be broken like this.  The users 
will just see the Oops, we hit an error! message when they try to go 
to the admin interface.

The fix is:

chown root:list /var/lock/mailman
chmod 2775 /var/lock/mailman
