[Mailman-Users] Sudden error
Dear List - after more than a year of loyal service, my mailman configuration (1.0.9 on Debian) stopped working! My /var/log/mailman/error shows: Sep 24 00:00:03 2003 qrunner(823): Traceback (innermost last): Sep 24 00:00:03 2003 qrunner(823): File /usr/lib/mailman/cron/qrunner, line 282, in ?

All I can say is that the double '.msg.msg' seems odd. Other than that I am clueless. Any suggestions to a possible cure are much appreciated! -- Erik van der Meulen [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ This message was sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
[Mailman-Users] Bounces from Hotmail
Dear Mailman people - I have managed to setup mailman and am very pleased (after operating an old Majordomo list server for years). On thing I do much appreciate is the option to detect bounces and take action accordingly. Unfortunately it seems that the majority of bounces that I receive pass through the filter. They are the 'mailbox full' messages from Hotmail users. I receive many of those and would like Mailman to set the 'nomail' option for as soon as possible. Does anyone have a proper solution for that available? I would be much helped! Thanks all. -- Erik van der Meulen [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Mailman-Users maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users
Re: [Mailman-Users] Crons don't run (Mailman Htdig)
I have been installing Mailman on Debian. I have noticed that the package does not use a user.group 'mailman', but has user 'list'. You might want to 'grep' your /etc/passwd to check.

It seems that the option 'Hold posts with header' does just do that too. I would have liked to use the bounce detect feature from Mailman (which adds to /var/log/mailman/bounces and shuts down user accounts automatically after a number of pre-specified bounces. I was hoping that I could adapt its detection mechanism in some way to catch those Hotmal 'mailbox full' messages, rather than just filtering 'm. I use Mailman 1.1, maybe those features are better in new releases?

[Mailman-Users] Bug against Mozilla?
Hi - I have just installed Mailman 1.2.4 (thanks to the support on this list!) and I have come across the following: If I hit the 'send' button after composing a mail, I get the hour glass and that never goes away. The message does get send in the background, but the compose window remains. This happens in Mozilla 0.9.7, in the MS flavours I have checked this functions as one would expect. Any ideas?

[Mailman-Users] Apache Alias
Dear List - this is a RTFM I know, but in case of Apache the FM is hudge, so I hope somebody can pull this right out of the hat... My Mailman (1.1) documentation reads: Configure your Web server to point to the Pipermail public mailing list archives: For example, in Apache: Alias /pipermail/ $prefix/archives/public/ My question is: in what file does this go, and where exactly? I have access.conf and httpd.conf Other thing is that I would like to alias the name: www.myhost.nl/cgi-bin/mailman to something a little easier like www.myhost.nl/mailman. Again, I would like to know how to do this in Apache. Thanks a lot, best regards. -- Erik van der Meulen [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Mailman-Users maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users
[Mailman-Users] Issue with cron in new installation
Dear Mailman people - I am new to this list, new to Mailman and not too much off a wizz in this respect, so I hope my question does not upset anyone. I have just installed Mailman 1.1 on my Debian/GNU box (2.2). The packaging system seems to handle that quite well. I have made a 'test' list and things seemed to work. Next I tried to figure out the frequency of resending the posts, and I found a script 'mailman' in /etc/cron.d which reads: 12,42 * * * * list[ -x /usr/bin/python -a -f \ /usr/lib/mailman/cron/run_queue ] /usr/bin/python \ /usr/lib/mailman/cron/run_queue */5 * * * * list[ -x /usr/bin/python -a -f \ /usr/lib/mailman/cron/gate_news ] /usr/bin/python \ /usr/lib/mailman/cron/gate_news Next I have changed this first '12,42' into '/3' because I hoped to execute the queue every 3 min rather than every half hour. Since I have touched that script, I receive error mails to root every 3 minutes (quite sure I did not get them every half hour before) saying: Subject: Cron root@souterrain list[ -x /usr/bin/python -a -f +/usr/lib/mailman/cron/run_queue ] /usr/bin/python +/usr/lib/mailman/cron/run_queue X-Cron-Env: SHELL=/bin/sh X-Cron-Env: HOME=/root X-Cron-Env: PATH=/usr/bin:/bin X-Cron-Env: LOGNAME=root /bin/sh: list: command not found and also a mail that I made to the test list resulted in: From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Mail sent to Test To: root X-Mailman-Version: 1.1 Precedence: bulk List-Id: Testlijst test.avondel.nl Your mail to 'Test' with the subject: Cron root@souterrain list [ -x /usr/bin/python -a -f /usr/lib/mailman/cron/run_queue ] /usr/bin/python /usr/lib/mailman/cron/run_queue Is being held until the list moderator can review it for approval. The reason it is being held: Implicit destination I have tried to find the reason in the doc's, but did not manage.
