[Mailman-Users] Specific geographical membership in the maillist; Folkemusiklisten
Hi mailman, I have a question from a subscriber, who asks if its a possibility to narrow her receiving mails down to a specific geographical area. She just wants to receive mails on Folkemusiklisten (typical mails about upcoming shows and concerts) from the area where she lives. Can I set the mail list up in mailman, so I can accommodate her request? It should be a feature, where the subscribers themselves can enable this and not as an implied feature for everybody, because many still prefer to receive mails, covering the whole country. My thoughts on this, is that it cant, because the sender is not registered by geographical area, but only by his or hers mail address.

[Mailman-Users] SSPS-L mailing list using Mailman
My organization, the South Shore Power Squadron, maintains a mailing list using Mailman. We recently had a falling out with several of our members. They are now using the list to communicate with its subscribers and advance their own agenda. Is there anything that can be done by the list administrators to mitigate this? As it is an open list, unsubscribing these members would be pointless. Is there a way to close the list or filter/force a moderator review of submissions from certain members? Please advise.

[Mailman-Users] Create new mailinglist from Java programm
Hello everybody, I have a question about the possible interfaces from mailman. We want to connect our software written in java with our existing mailman server. To be precisely, we want to create new mailing list with our java program. So we need some kind of interface to access the mailman. When it's possible, we don't want to start a Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec to run the commandline tool from mailman, because in that case we need a separate ssh tunnel through our firewalls to our mailman server. In the Wiki I read about the new REST interface http://wiki.list.org/display/DEV/REST+Interface. Is it already available or in development. If not, is it possible to send a suitable POST request to the webinterface from mailman to create new mailinglist?

This basically emulates the Postfix virtual style setup, but includes the routers etc to get Exim to see the relevant virtual aliases files. I have converted three Mailman setups that were using Postfix (on a mix of Ubuntu and FreeBSD) to this setup, and it worked fine. In all these cases this was a separate box managing a bit of web stuff and lists, not the primary email server. Thanks.

I was able to remove everything associated with mailman and use apt-get install mailman, which on this occasion, worked like a charm. I am currently experiencing a hiccup at, documentation 6.1.1 (http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/mailman-install/node13.html). I am not understanding the aliases/aliases.db instructions. I, seemingly, successfully ran /usr/lib/mailman/bin/genaliases but now, cannot seem to find any data/aliases file or directory. Any ideas?

Disregard that last email... I wasn't looking in the appropriate directory. Sorry Beyer, Clay Wrote: Mark Sapiro Wrote: [...] This is a Debian packaging issue. If you wish to install Debian's Mailman package, you'll have to take this up with Debian. How would I go about completely removing the current, albeit, partial install of mailman? Is there a way to do any kind of complete removal other than just searching and deleting (after an apt-get remove)? I am a bit of a Linux beginner, so I am not entirely sure how the tarball installations works, but I am betting that is simpler to figure out and will ask if I need any assistance. apt-get purge mailman, then delete files in /var/lib/mailman, /etc/mailman, /usr/lib/mailman, /usr/share/mailman and /usr/share/doc/mailman (I think that is it). Purge should do all this for you (especially if you haven't touched any list config). On the other hand, that is a strange error you got, and suggests you may have another underlying issue. If you haven't got anything else on the box, you may just want to reinstall with the latest Lenny minimal server install and work upwards. Using the Tarball is easy enough, though I always use the Debian package because I never have any issues with it. Thanks.

[Mailman-Users] Getting rid of footer ?
Hi, I am using the CPanel approach to Mailman. The footer to every post has.. ___ my mailing list myl...@mydomain http://mydomain Is there some way to ensure that the above does NOT appear on every post please ? If so then where/how do I remove it please ?

Re: [Mailman-Users] Warning: I/O Error While Trying To Byte-Compile
Below, you suggested not to use postfix-to-mailman.py.
What should I use if not this? My postfix master.cf file contains the
mailman MTA lines toward the bottom...
Mailman unix n n 2 pipe
Flags=FR user=list
argv=/usr/lib/mailman/bin/postfix-to-mailman.py
${nexthop} ${user}
This seems to be making the server go crazy, tons of processes running
at once, bogging down the server. Commenting these lines out returns the
server to normal operation, but then in my mail.info log file, I have
tons of Mail Transport Agent not found.
Please help.

Have successfully set up a Debian server and installed and configured
Postfix and have been trying to integrate Mailman. I am receiving the

You clearly don't need qmail-to-mailman.py, and while Debian seems to
like postfix-to-mailman.py (which is not distributed even as
contributed source by the GNU Mailman project), I don't recommend it.
Again, this is happening during install and it seems like the install
is
failing or not completing properly. I have tried uninstalling and
reinstalling but continue to receive the same I/O errors. Can anyone
assist?
This is a Debian packaging issue. If you wish to install Debian's
Mailman package, you'll have to take this up with Debian.
If you download and install the 2.1.13 tarball from
https://launchpad.net/mailman/2.1/2.1.13 or
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mailman/, it will be less convenient, but we
can help you with any installation issues.

You seem to have some kind of mail loop creating all these
messages/references.
That notwithstanding, You need to either remove transport_maps from
Postfix's main.cf or if there are non-mailman transports referenced in
/etc/postfix/transport or whatever transport_maps references, remove
the mailman transport entry.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Specific geographical membership in the maillist; Folkemusiklisten

She just wants to receive mails on Folkemusiklisten (typical mails about upcoming shows and concerts) from the area where she lives. You might be able to use Mailman's Topics feature for this if the area is mentioned in the Subject: of the post or in a Keywords: line at the beginning of the body. Otherwise, there is no way. Another alternative would be to have separate lists for each local area, and have those lists also feed into regional lists or a national list. Which way to go depends on how much manpower you have. Mark's suggestion is way less demanding on administration, about equally flexible in terms of configuration, and requires somewhat more effort from the subscribers. -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
