[Mailman-Users] email bouncing back to sender...

2004-09-06 Thread Nathan K. Stazewski
I'm not sure if this is a problem on the listserv side.or if bowdoin edu's.
I didn't see anything about this on previous postings, so I thought I'd ask.
Basically, whenever this user tries to post to our listserv, it waits 2 days
and says it can't deliver.  I never see the email to be able to approve it.
We don't seem to be having any other problems.just this one user.  Thanks in
advance.

Re: [Mailman-Users] email bouncing back to sender...

2004-09-06 Thread Richard Barrett
You do not seem to have an MX record published for the  
alumni-office.swarthmore.edu domain and while an A record is acceptable  
for a machine with a public IP number it is indicative of a possible  
failure for your network to be configured so as to allow SMTP  
connection to port 25 on that machine.

I also found that attempting to connect to port 25 on  
alumni-office.swarthmore.edu failed with a timeout which suggest that  
something may be blocking connections to it. I suggest you discuss this  
with your local sys admin as the cause of your problem may be the  
configuration of firewalls on your machine/LAN

The following illustrate the inability to connect, which is what the  
MTA that sent the bounce message was reporting:

;; ANSWER SECTION:
alumni-office.swarthmore.edu.  2h5m45s IN A  130.58.82.74

[Mailman-Users] Redirecting from one list to another

2004-09-06 Thread Bruce Embrey
Mailman Users:

 

I am running Mailman 2.1.5. I have several lists where one is allstudents,
and several others that are a subset such as commuters, residents, etc.
Sometimes messages are sent to the allstudents list which should have been
sent to one of the other lists. How do I redirect the message to the subset
list without it going to the allstudents list? Can this be done through the
admin interface? If not then how?

 

Thanks,

 

Bruce Embrey

There is a mistake in the Danish translation that shipped with
2.1.5.  It is missing an 's' in one of the translated strings.

[Mailman-Users] trouble with setup: Cron, receiving mail outside lan

2004-09-06 Thread Jim Dory
I'm a newb with this and am a bit overwhelmed with the installation and 
docs. Been searching the archives but hoping for quick help, as I 
suspect I made a dumb error.

I'm installing on Suse 7.3, I have python 2.1.1 and latest stable 
mailman. Using Sendmail. I have it working more or less on local lan, 
but outside of it, email clients do not receive mail from it. They can 
send. I get error messages locally to my root and user email accounts on 
the server every 5 minutes or so:

Here's a snip of my mm_cfg.py:

from Defaults import *
##
# Put YOUR site-specific settings below this line.
IMAGE_LOGOS = '/icons/'
DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'www.dorydesign.com'
DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'dorydesign.com'
add_virtualhost(DEFAULT_URL_HOST, DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST)

(I thought you would add the actual host names under the add_virtualhost 
line but it returns errors when trying to start or stop mailman).

I figure it is probably a simple mistake or overlook. Hopefully someone 
can lend a hand. I can post more info - just not sure what is needed. My 
/etc/aliases contains the suggested aliases from the INSTALL.  My hosts 
file has 127.0.0.1 localhost and then also its IP Address and 
linux.local (the name of server). Not sure if I need to add anything 
more there.

Perhaps I just need more in my mm_cfg.py file ? or perhaps a permission 
problem with cron?

Thank you very much for reading and also to anyone who may offer 
ideas/inquiries!!!

cheers, JD.

Have you run bin/check_perms -f ? the obvious cause of the error is a

FWIW, my locks directory is 775 and the lock files themselves are 664. 
Before even messing with that, however, if you have no need for the 
NNTP gate, then comment out the gate_news in the mailman crontab and 
you don't have to worry about it :-)

BTW, did you install from source? If so, know that Mailman-2.1.5 (the 
latest) requires python 2.3.

Hello Dan,
Thanks for the reply! 

Check_perms had some errors and with -f it no longer reports any errors.
The problem could well be the older python version. I installed python 
via a package on the Suse 7.3 disks as I could not find one that worked 
otherwise. I downloaded the latest source for python and I got back gcc 
./configure errors. I found an rpm of python that was perhaps for suse 8 
and it didn't work either. So that is why I went with the older python. 
The only one I could get to install.  I could search more for an 
upgrade, but didn't have luck the first time.  I've thought of upgrading 
to Debian on the server but really didn't want to go through the hassle 
(learning curve and time)- but maybe that would be an alternative.

I'll try commenting out the NNTP gate (haven't researched what it is yet 
- don't even know if I need it). Locks directory under 
/usr/local/mailman is drwxrwsr-x, as is all of those directories.

But if it ain't gonna work with python 2.1.1, maybe that is where my 
attention should lie?

As an aside, should I reply to the list? When I hit reply, or reply-all, 
it does not include the mailman list. Seems odd.

cheers, JD

Probably.  Can you write code in Python?
 Does an open source solution exist?

 I'm installing on Suse 7.3, I have python 2.1.1 and latest stable mailman.
What do you consider the latest stable mailman?
	If you search at the Mailman FAQ Wizard at 
http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py, you will find that item 
5.008 informs you that you need Python 2.3 if you're going to use 
Mailman 2.1.5.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Replying to list (was:trouble with setup: Cron, receiving mail outside lan)

2004-09-06 Thread Mark Sapiro
Jim Dory in response to an off list reply from Dan Phillips:

As an aside, should I reply to the list? When I hit reply, or reply-all, 
it does not include the mailman list. Seems odd.


Your reply-all doesn't automatically include the list because Dan's
reply to you didn't include the list.

It is always tricky to know what to do in this case. This list is set
up so simple replies to list messages go to the originator and
reply-all goes to the originator, the list and any other explicit
recipients of that message. I happen to believe that this is the
proper way to set up a list, but I don't want to start that thread
here (there are plenty of examples in the archives if you want to see
the arguments).

The problem is if I receive an off list reply, do I treat it as though
ommitting the list was a mistake and continue the thread on the list,
or do I treat it as though it was off list on purpose and respect the
replier's privacy and not copy back to the list? I tend toward the
latter but will do the former if I think there is enough general
interest.

As far as ethics is concerned, unless the reply specifically indicates
it is off list, I don't have a problem including it in a further
reply to the list.
