RE: [Mailman-Users] Need help to help a friend!
I'm new to this myself but I'll try - someone will probably correct me... For both the below questions, I believe that the software will need to be installed Q: What is the directory path to where the e-mail addresses of the subscribers in Mailman reside? (He has been hosting only one list including its digest users.) Don't know sorry Q: Can these e-mail addresses be extracted (exported) to an ASCII file without the use of executing any Mailman software? Don't think so. You can install it and run the list_members command and export that to a file This email is confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual(s) to whom it is addressed.

[Mailman-Users] Digest Email Question
Hello Mailman: My name is Jon Stephenson, I am the VP of Sales for Surplus Record, Inc., our company is an active user of Mailman software. My question has to do with your Digest email format. Is it possible to format the digest email that mailman distributes to our list, where every individual email subject contained at the beginning of the digest, is a hyper link to the content of that respective email that is located further down in the digest? Also, we would like to be able to have our clientele have the ability to print 1 email out at a time that is contained in the digest email, instead of printing all email that are contained in the digest. Is there a way to format this as well, as to separate to respective email from each other when printing? For example print page 7 for email # 7? Thank you for your time and attention to these questions. Regards, Jon Stephenson === Surplus Record, Inc. P.O. Box 700 Holicong, PA 18928 Jon R.

[Mailman-Users] OS/Browser supported by Mailman
Hi, This may actually be a peripheral type of question about Mailman, but... I need to tell our users what OS's/browsers and their versions are supported by Mailman. I think this is related to how the HTML tags are composed dynamically by Mailman and the syntaxes used there are fairly conservaitve and can support virtually every browser available in the modern market. Still I need some specific suggestions regarding the MS Windows OS's, MS Internet Explorer and Mozilla/Netscape browsers with their versions that are completely compatible with Mailman. And which are not. Thanks in advance for your advice.

This entry is being stored in your syslog: pre Group mismatch error. Mailman expected the CGI wrapper script to be executed as one of the following groups: [apache], but the system's web server executed the CGI script as group: root. Try tweaking the web server to run the script as one of these groups: [apache], or re-run configure providing the command line option: '--with-cgi-gid=root'./pre I've searched the Mail-Archive and found a lot of entries, heading the same problem, but I couldn't find the answer.

3. Is there any reason to have the News qrunner active if I'm
not passing any mail to a news server? (I have turned it off

If you're not gating news, then it's safe to turn this off.
4. Can I invoke the qrunner task from cron ('qrunner -o -r All')
on a regular basis in lieu of running qrunner as a background
daemon? I think this is the way it used to work. It would
seem this might be a reasonable tradeoff of CPU cycles for
memory for me in my slice of a low-memory VPS. (It appears
to me that running qrunner as a daemon, with the associated
processes takes about 25 Megs of memory.) Will this cause
any problems (besides making the cron logs balloon)?
Bad idea. You'll just take up this amount of memory every time
the cron job fires up, but then the qrunner won't exit and you'll try
to fire up another one at the next period.
Mailman used to run this stuff out of cron, but not anymore. The
qrunner jobs don't work that way any more. If you try to do things
this way, you're likely to come to much grief.
5. The FAQ discusses several ways of forcing mailman to use a
secure apache connection (https). Is there a way of forcing
the admin functions to a secure connection, without requiring
the same for the list users? (Actually, this may be moot,
as it appears one can explicitly use https initially to
protect the admin password when logging in; encrypting the
rest of the session is less important to me. But, I'd like
to force all administrative users to use a secure link,
at least during the authentication phase.)
We tried this. It's really, really hard to secure just part of
the Mailman site. It's much easier to just secure the whole thing.
