[Mailman-Users] Filtering by text
Hi, I help moderate a few lists where certain topics are not permitted. I thought it would be possible to flag a message for moderation based on text found in the body of the message, but I can't immediately see how one might do this. Presumably the administrivia scan uses a technique like this. Is it possible to do this in Mailman?

[Mailman-Users] Group mismatch ( YES I KNOW THIS IS A FAQ BUT..)
Hi, I know this is a FAQ and yes I've tried to read all items and still I can't find my way out so hope someone Can shed some light to this. Just summarizing what I am about to do. I have an old mailman installation I need to port to a new server. The old one is based on EXIM as MTA but I would like to use postfix, because this is the one I use on a lot of servers. I need to make mailman virtual. I have around 20 mail domains to handle. So I install a Ubuntu 10.04LTS 64 bit and get the packages for postfix apache2 and mailman and install No problem. When trying to make the virtual postfix/mailman integration, I ran across a post recommending to use mailman 2.1.14 Ok - I removed the mailman package from Ubuntu , actually 2.1.13 - downloaded the 2.1.14 source Ran configure, make and make install all seems OK.

[Mailman-Users] editing archives html page
To recover disk space I remove the archives on quite a few of my announcement lists. When I went to the Go to archives page I was surprised to see the Archive, View By, etc. listing of messages that were no longer there. Is there a command to clean that page so that it reflects the messages that are still to be seen. In my case, since I deleted all the messages it would say No messages have been ... so archives are empty. That's usually what I see when I create a new list. I can copy the index.html file from an empty archive list and edit that, but is there a way easier way. --myron = Myron Kowalski MoCoSIN Network/Systems Administrator Moravian College my...@cs.moravian.edu -- 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

[Mailman-Users] mail based moderation
Hi, we are using mailman to manage several mailing lists. I'm looking for a way to moderate emails through email interface when I'm offsite. So I manage to use the -request address with the confirmxx topic from a notebook, but using my iPhone, I can't see attached email received in moderation notification from -owner, so I don't have any confirm id... Is there a workaround or do I missed something ?

Re: [Mailman-Users] editing archives html page
The first one command you listed was the one I ran. I looked at another list that I ran it on and, it looked as I expected with the tables removed. In fact, all the other lists looked that way. I must have done something wrong on the one list.

When I went to the Go to archives page I was surprised to see the Archive, View By, etc. listing of messages that were no longer there. Is there a command to clean that page so that it reflects the messages that are still to be seen. In my case, since I deleted all the messages it would say No messages have been ... so archives are empty. That's usually what I see when I create a new list. I can copy the index.html file from an empty archive list and edit that, but is there a way easier way. If you want a totally empty archive, run bin/arch --wipe LISTNAME /dev/null If you want to prune the archive, remove the unwanted messages from archives/private/LISTNAME.mbox/LISTNAME.mbox and then run bin/arch --wipe LISTNAME See the FAQ at http://wiki.list.org/x/2YA9. -- Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.netThe highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

[Mailman-Users] The requested URL /pipermail/aa/ was not found on this server
Hi, I installed mailman on my server, but some problems appeared. Could you please help me solve these problems? mailman version: 2.1.13 operating system: Red hat 4.1.2-50 python version: 2.4.3 gcc version: 4.1.2 problem 1: The requested URL /pipermail/aa/ was not found on this server. When I click the aa Archiveshttp://sysbio.rnet.missouri.edu/pipermail/aa/, a message The requested URL /pipermail/aa/ was not found on this server appears. (aa is a list I created) I added a few lines in the file etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: Alias /pipermail/ “/var/www/cgi-bin/multicom_toolbox/mailman/archives/public/” Directory “/var/www/cgi-bin/multicom_toolbox/mailman/archives/public” Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None Order allow,deny Allow from all /Directory I also set the directory $prefix/archives/private: cd $prefix/archives chown apache private chmod o-x private problem 2: when I create a list, no email is sent to my mailbox, and no false message appears. problem 3: my url is http://$a.$b.edu/mailman; and my email address is $name@mail.$b.edu. I set DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = '$b.edu' and DEFAULT_URL_HOST = '$a.$b.edu' and POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ['$b.edu', '$b.edu']. Are these right? Thank you very much!

Is there a workaround or do I missed something ? This is a problem with the iPhone mail client you are using. You could try taking this up with Apple or maybe find another iPhone mail app that does a better job of rendering MIME multipart messages. I don't think there is any workaround in Mailman other than using your phone's web browser to access the list's admindb interface. -- Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.netThe highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

What does your apache error log say? Is this a SELinux issue? problem 2: when I create a list, no email is sent to my mailbox, and no false message appears.

I set DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = '$b.edu' and DEFAULT_URL_HOST = '$a.$b.edu' And following that do you have add_virtualhost(DEFAULT_URL_HOST, DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST) and POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ['$b.edu', '$b.edu']. It is redundant to list the same domain twice in POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS. POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ['$b.edu'] is enough.
