[Mailman-Users] Problem sending one email to multiple lists
Hi, I have a customer that uses Mailman on their VPS (Virtual Private Server) running the Plesk Control Panel. After a recent upgrade of Plesk, they can no longer send a single email to multiple lists. Supposedly, this worked prior to the upgrade. For example, if they send a message to li...@domain.com and 'CC' li...@domain.com, only list1 recipients receive the email. I was able to reproduce this behavior on a test VPS we have available here at our office. I'm able to send to each test list individually but when I send to one list and 'CC' the other, I only receive emails from the first list. The mail server logs show the initial email going out to both list addresses so I'm not sure why one is being dropped after reaching mailman. I experimented with the Mailman Privacy Options | Recipient Filters and set Must posts have list named in destination (to, cc) field (or be among the acceptable alias names, specified below)? to No for both of my test lists, but this didn't help resolve the issue. http://lists.geekchk.com/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/test2-list/?VARHELP=privacy/recipient/require_explicit_destination I'd really appreciate any suggestions! -- Heather Masterson Modwest Support Team supp...@modwest.com http://modwest.com/help/ -- 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

I'm having difficulty getting mailman with sendmail to work on a RedHat 5 box. First, I check that sendmail's prog mailer is working.

[Mailman-Users] Help with setting up listserve?
Hello, I have extensive experience using a listserve, but I've never been involved in the technical aspects of setting one up. I have now been volunteered for this task in a non-profit community organization and I am the only one who has ever even heard of a listserve there, so I got elected to figure out how to set one up. I assume that I would need some server space somewhere to do this, but beyond that I get a bit lost. Could you please point me in the right direction? I'm not a techie, but I would really like to learn how to do this. Are there free hosts out there for non-profit community organizations? Is there anyone who might be willing to help me get started? Our organization is called Canal Street Historic District -- we are trying to revitalize the downtown of our small, Florida city. This is no easy task when it's much easier for developers to simply move west of town and plop down a big box store! I would greatly appreciate any help you could give me.

This is no easy task when it's much easier for developers to simply move west of town and plop down a big box store! First off, listserv is a registered trademark for another product. Mailman is not listserv. If you're looking for someone else to do the mailman hosting for you, there's a list of Mailman hosting services here: http://wiki.list.org/x/Hg But if you're willing to host it yourself, you definitely can learn how to do it. You'll need access to a server where you can set up the software, and you should be able to just follow the instructions in the installation manual: http://list.org/mailman-install/index.html -- 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

From a raw distribution it should be copied to mm_cfg.py. If you already have an mm_cfg.py, be careful to add in only the new settings you want. The complete set of distributed defaults, with annotation, are in ./Defaults. In mm_cfg, override only those you want to change, after the from Defaults import * line (see below). Note that these are just default settings - many can be overridden via the admin and user interfaces on a per-list or per-user basis.

I know that to a nonprofit even $10 a month adds up, but it's worth far more than that in time and reliability if you get real support. One hint is to get the names of some of the tech support people, and then check to see if they participate in this list (mailman-users) or (even better?) the developers' list (mailman-devel). (IIRC, EMWD -- on the list above -- is one such; there may be others. This is not an endorsement of EMWD, just the facts, ma'am. ;-) But if you're willing to host it yourself, you definitely can learn how to do it. You'll need access to a server where you can set up the software, and you should be able to just follow the instructions in the installation manual: http://list.org/mailman-install/index.html This is not hard, as Terri says. But there are a lot of issues that come with running your own lists. It can be a time sink; on the other hand, it can also provide some basic experience that will serve you very well when you decide to expand your web presence, even if you do go with a hosting service. -- 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
