Re: [Mailman-Users] Error when subscribing to list

Re: [Mailman-Users] Where's my mail?
See http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showfile=faq03.014.htp. Thanks -- it seems that the problem here is not actually with Mailman, as I can post to lists as long as I'm not in the building. I think I have to configure my main mail server, since in-house PCs deliver all their mail to mail.tblc.org (but machines outside the network have their own MTAs which sensibly deliver directly to lists.tblc.org as per the MX record). I've got mail.tblc.org set up to forward list mail, I think; /etc/aliases on the main mail server looks like this (for each list): youth: [EMAIL PROTECTED] youth-admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] youth-bounces: [EMAIL PROTECTED] youth-confirm: [EMAIL PROTECTED] youth-join: [EMAIL PROTECTED] youth-leave: [EMAIL PROTECTED] youth-owner: [EMAIL PROTECTED] youth-request: [EMAIL PROTECTED] youth-subscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] youth-unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] And I've run 'newaliases' already. So now I'm off to troubleshoot Postfix on the main mail server... Thanks again!

Re: [Mailman-Users] There are no pending requests
If the number of messages being held is -1, then there was a bug/problem with upgrade that caused that. You go to handle the messages, you see -1, you try to release -1 messages, after that things are fine. No, the message I get is ipac Administrative Database (newline) There are no pending requests. Click here to reload this page. Are the messages in fact disappearing, and never being mailed to list members? I'm not sure whether the messages are still being held somewhere. Are any messages getting through? Yes, some messages are getting through. Is it possible that your mail aliases are pointing to the old Mailman, which is storing them in the old queue, and the new Mailman isn't seeing them at all? Probably not, since the old Mailman is on a different server. I've also tried bin/check_perms -f and was told there were no problems. What else might be going on?

[Mailman-Users] Bounces are going to my old mail server
I've created a mailing list called bentest. My bounce messages are going to [EMAIL PROTECTED], but I don't remember telling this new mailman server about a host named snoopy. I did copy the list data over from snoopy (which is our general email server, but not our mailing list server). Several mailing lists' config.* files contain the string 'snoopy', but bentest's config.* files do not, so I think I can rule that out. What's going on here, and how can I fix it?

Re: [Mailman-Users] Bounces are going to my old mail server
One of two things. Assuming DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST is not 'snoopy.tblc.org' DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST was 'mail.tblc.org' but I've changed it to 'lists.tblc.org' and done 'mailman reload'. Still seems to do the same thing. either the host name part of the web_page_url attribute of the bentest list when looked up in the VIRTUAL_HOSTS dictionary (add_virtualhost) returns 'snoopy.tblc.org' How could I test for this possibility? or your outgoing MTA is changing the domain for the outside world. Well, if I just email my Gmail account from the command line, it appears to come from [EMAIL PROTECTED], but the Your mail is being held headers have loads of domains: lists.tblc.org, www2.tblc.org, snoopy.tblc.org, mail.tblc.org...

As you may remember from our last thrilling episode, I've upgraded from 2.1.4 to 2.1.5. Our users are trying to send messages that are being held for review, which is fine.
