[Mailman-Users] check_perms error?
Hello list This is my first try in mailman. I run mailman-2.1-8 in a RH9 Linux with python-2.2.2-26. Mailman installed automaticaly from redhat installer. When I run check_perms in /var/mailman/bin/ directory the following message shows. Is that problem and how can I solve it before continuing Traceback (most recent call last): File ./check_perms, line 51, in ? MAILMAN_GID = grp.getgrnam(MAILMAN_GROUP)[2] KeyError: getgrnam(): name not found I have run check_perms -f but i got the same error Thank you -- 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 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/

I tried Stephan to move away the files in the data/ directory but then Stephan Mailman complains about missing them, so I guess I have Stephan to do it the Mailman way to keep everything consistent. I've seen this done a couple of times on a 2.0.13 installation with nothing being the worse for wear. Delete the spam messages, get the page, which will still take a lot of time because Mailman looks for them all and builds up a 1000-message long page, each of which says couldn't find the message file, pling any new spam that has come in while you were fooling around, and Mailman will decide that all the spam got thrown in a black hole, and reset itself. I've actually lost spam messages (once) because of a race with a co-moderator; odds are it happens once a day somewhere on the planet, so I'm sure Mailman knows how to deal. Probably you'll get a better answer, and there's no rush, really. But if you _have_ to do that, I'm pretty sure it will work without harm to anything except the spam. :-) -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of TsukubaTennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Ask not how you can do free software business; ask what your business can do for free software. -- 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 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/

Have you gotten her to send you complete samples of the duplicates, including all headers intact? Comparing the headers is a good way to figure out where the duplication is occurring -- there might be a flaw in your mail server causing these problems (unlikely, as you'd probably have other users also complaining), or a flaw in her mail server. Or maybe a flaw somewhere between. It could also be something as simple as people sending a copy of a reply to a message to the list, as well as a copy directly to her.

If you are absolutely bound and determined to use PHP for doing your
list admin via the Mailman admin web GUI and the standard Mailman web
GUI cannot meet your needs then you can drive the standard Mailman
admin GUI by screen scraping. You could certainly do it with Python and
I see no in-principle reason why you cannot do it with PHP. A quick web
search threw up the CURL client support library for use with PHP which,
at first glance, looks like it may be man enough for the job:
http://ca.php.net/manual/en/ref.curl.php
Mailman's web GUI uses cookie authentication and your code has to
understand how to do that but it is not rocket science.
The main issue is being able to extract Set-cookie: headers from
responses and add Cookie: headers to requests.
As an example, the crude Python code fragment below will login to a
Mailman web GUI and extract a list's basic membership admin HTML page.
But be aware of how vulnerable your PHP code is going to be to changes
in the Mailman interface, even if it is extremely well thought out. But
this is true of all screen scrapers.
Python code fragment follows
import httplib
import urllib
# hardwired list admin password - awful security
parms = urllib.urlencode({'adminpw': 'yourpassword', 'admlogin': 'Let
me in...'})
hdrs = {Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded, Accept:
text/html}
conn = httplib.HTTPConnection('server.yourdomain.com:80')
# This request should 'log us in' and get Mailman to return the
authentication
# cookie with the list's general options page
conn.request('POST', '/mailman/admin/listname', parms, hdrs)
resp = conn.getresponse()
print resp.status, resp.reason # should be 200 and OK
data = resp.read()
# data now contains the HTML of the list's General options page
conn.close()
# Get the cookie set by Mailman
scookie = resp.getheader('set-cookie')
# Extract the cookie value to return with next request
cookie = scookie.split(';')[0].strip()
nhdrs = {Accept: text/html, 'Cookie': cookie}
conn = httplib.HTTPConnection('server.yourdomain.com:80')
# Now get the Membership list page for the list
conn.request('GET', '/mailman/admin/listname/members', None, nhdrs)
resp = conn.getresponse()
print resp.status, resp.reason # should be 200 and OK
data = resp.read()
# data now contains the HTML of the list's Membership List page
conn.close()
...
and so on

Re: [Mailman-Users] qrunner lockup / mass moderation (solved)
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Just as a followup to my post explaining how I solved the problem. The lockup didn't have something to do with the overfull moderation queue. There was a 8 MB big file in the qfiles/ directory. The size was not that unusual and Mailman normally has no problems dealing with that, but it had the following strange content: This is an automated response. Command 'this' not recognized. There were problems with the email commands you sent to Mailman via Command 'there' not recognized. the administrative address Command 'the' not recognized. [EMAIL PROTECTED]. Command '[EMAIL PROTECTED].' not recognized. To obtain instructions on valid Mailman email commands, send email to Command 'to' not recognized. [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word Command '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' not recognized. help in the subject line or in the body of the message. Command 'help' not recognized. ... and so on and so on. (email address of the list removed to protect the innocent and avoiding spam). This was a reply from a wronggoing majordomo to a mailman request address. I guess Mailman had problems with all these special characters and commands and locked up while parsing everything. I removed the qfile and everything was running smooth again. If somebody wants the file for debugging purposes, just email me in private and I can send it to you. Anyway. While searching through the web I also found a solution to the mass moderation problem via withlist. Stephen J. Turnbull suggested to just delete the files in the data/ directory, then start the mailman web interface again and mailman will reinitialize everything. This will probably work too, but the follwing seems to be a more elegant way: As user mailman execute: python -i bin/withlist listname Then type: m.Lock() from Mailman import mm_cfg h = m.GetHeldMessageIds() for i in h: m.HandleRequest(i,mm_cfg.DISCARD) return m.Save() ctrl-d I found it here: http://mm.tkikuchi.net/pipermail/mmjp-users/2001-November/000154.html It's in japanese but even without understanding the mail, the script a good hint. There is even a python script which deletes all mails older than x days from the queue (or that's what I think what it does). I didn't try it yet, but it seems to be a nice way to get rid of all the spam in moderation queues via an automatic cronjob.

This idea could be expanded to an novice/advanced view of the options, where the advanced would show all of the options and categories and the novice view would show only some. The site admin could tweak what is visible in the 'novice' view, add more arbitrary views and the initial default. The list admins might be able to select their preferred view (if the site admin let them), and the list moderators might get only the options that apply to them. On top of this, more complex options might be created that combine changing several list attributes, so you could show your list owners a simple open/closed option which would actually change more than one thing under the hood.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Weird domain action
Check your configuration, on the General page. Down toward the bottom you'll find Domain this list prefers for email. Make sure that doesn't have www in it. /edg --On Tuesday, May 04, 2004 1:09 PM -0500 Brian O'Connor [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: We have a web and mail server set up with the domain name osdlc.org.

[Mailman-Users] /usr/local/mailman/mail/wrapper doesn't exist
I installed mailman, trying to use Qmail as the MTA. The only thing that baffles me so far is the wrapper program doesn't exist in the /usr/local/mailman/mail/ directory. Where would I find documentation on this? I'm able to create lists, send notifcations to users but can't send messages to the newly created lists. It shouts something about a program called wrapper. Any advice on this? * - * * Steve Schofield * [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 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/
[Mailman-Users] on mailing to my list: user (=listname) unknown; (sendmail-mailman config error?)
Hi,
I have installed
- mailman
- apache
- sendmail
Successfully created a list, got a confirmation eMail from list. But on mailing to the
list listname = mylist, I get the following error:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:
217.136.223.232_does_not_like_recipient./Remote_host_said:_550_5.1.1_[EMAIL PROTECTED]
me-union.org..._User_unknown/Giving_up_on_217.136.223.232./
It seems to me like the mail delivery agent tries to put the mail to the correct user
mylist,
who doesn't exist. So what can I do that mailman recognizes its for him.
Further information:
- smesrv.sme-union.org = 217.136.223.232
- On Configuration I followed the INSTALL and the README, being included in the
mailman
distribution.
- Furthermore in sendmail, /etc/mail/access there is no discard ... which could
falsly
generate that 550 error message
- mm_cfg.py:
DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'smesrv.sme-union.org'
DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'smesrv.sme-union.org'
add_virtualhost('smesrv.sme-union.org','smesrv.sme-union.org')
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Is there any further information about the
system which
I should provide?
Regards
Walter
