Re: [Mailman-Users] Help with Relay Spammers
Hi Ashley, Thank you for the reply. I've been doing some research on the relaying problem that I have to no avail. I have tried to verify the setup again and again but I cannot find anything wrong, except maybe the permissions, I don't know what permissions should be where. Can you point me in the right direction or shed some light on somewhere to look regarding permissions. I tend to think that we are on the right track. Thank you Greg On Mon, 04 Mar 2002, you wrote: To get Mailman-2.0.8 working on my setup, I had to enable relay control in Sendmail so that mailman would be able to send out messages to the list. Things have been working as expected with messages sent to the list and messages going out to the members of the list. Sendmail does _NOT_ need relay enabled for Mailman to work. We'd have a big problem on our hands if that was the case. Verify your setup again, specially permissions. -- H | Life is the art of drawing without an eraser. - John Gardner + Ashley M.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Help with Relay Spammers
Thanks Jon and Ashley, I've made the changes you recommended and I'll test to see if it will work.. I know it should never come to that, but there has never been a problem until now. Thanks again Greg On Mon, 04 Mar 2002, you wrote: Linuxconf is not an ideal tool for manipulating Sendmail You should make sure that you are using an up-to-date version of sendmail and then you will need to setup your sendmail so that it knows all the local names that are used for you mailserver. After that, you can setup allowed relays via the file: /etc/mail/access. If you have problems at that point put in your ip address and the key word ALLOW. Of course Ashley is right, it should never come to that! Jon Carnes --- Original Message: Saturday 02 March 2002 02:25 am --- Hi, I have just been bombarded with those dreaded relay spammers. My setup is RedHat 6.1, Sendmail with Kmail front end, and Apache. To get Mailman-2.0.8 working on my setup, I had to enable relay control in Sendmail so that mailman would be able to send out messages to the list. Things have been working as expected with messages sent to the list and messages going out to the members of the list. Today I had to go into Linuxconf and to the Sendmail part to disable relay control, by doing this, all messages sent to the list are killed off because Sendmail thinks the messages are spam messages (which they really are) but not those dreaded relay spam messages that some people take enjoyment to send around. I have read most of the documentation to find no mention of this occurance, maybe I skipped over the part without knowing or maybe it is not mentioned anywhere. Does anyone know how I can get arround this problem with Sendmail or Mailman.

[Mailman-Users] Editing HTML files
Where do I find the html files that you see when you connect to the list, not the file that mailman offers you to edit so that the appearance of the displayed page can be changed, dramatically.

[Mailman-Users] More problems
When subscribers try to subscribe to the list, a confirmation message is sent but they are not added to the list, hence when they send their confirmation back, they are still not added and there is no welcome message sent out. If you go to the web page as an administrator, you can add users to the list, manually and a welcome message is sent to the new users. When a message is sent to the list, the list doesn't sent out the message to the subscribers list. Greg Lucky my hair is very short and I cannot grab hold of it otherwise I would have none left.

Yes, I ran check_perms and it reported no problems found The /home/mailman/logs/error are clean (empty). No problems there.

All requests are set for PENDING if not, does your mail server log show the request mail coming in to your server and being accepted? Where are the mail server logs found. does logs/smtp show outbound mail successfully sent? Log/smpt show everything is completed but the logs/post show a failure Greg -- Mailman-Users maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users
[Mailman-Users] Still having Problems
Hi I've just install mailman-2.0.8 on RedHat 6.1. It seem that users can partially subscribe, that is, connect and subscribe, receive their email in return to send confirmation, send confirmation and never receive their welcome message. Anyone with any ideas on what is happening. Regards Greg -- Mailman-Users maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users

[Mailman-Users] Mailman Setup
I've just recently installed Mailman-2.0.8 with Python 1.5.2 on RedHat 6.1. The installation went great until users try to subscribe. Users can subscribe OK via the web page but no confirmation email is sent and they are not added to the list. The only email received by the user is an error message. Any ideas on what I may have not carried out during the installation. Greg -- Mailman-Users maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users
