Re: [Mailman-Users] Is there an easy way to discard all messageswaiting to be reviewed
You can also set the automatic discard to delete held messages after a certain number of days. General Options --- scroll way down to the bottom --- "Discard held messages older than this number of days. Use 0 for no automatic discarding." I set most of my lists to 4 days, which is the longest I would ever go without checking e-mail. That means when I get the moderator requests by e-mail, I glance at the notices to make sure the messages are spam, then go on with my work instead of having to log in to the list and moderate the message. After the 4 days, Mailman lets you know "1 old request(s) automatically expired." Works like a charm.

Re: [Mailman-Users] old mailserver interfering with new one??
Good morning. One of my clients has recently switched hosting companies, both of whom use Mailman. The new e-mail accounts seem to be working intermittently. When I looked into the old server's mailboxes, there seem to be "stray" messages in there that were sent after the hosting switch. Is it possible the old mailboxes are intercepting messages? I have attempted to contact our old host with no results so far. I can't make changes because they did not allow us access to the control panel to create and delete mailboxes or mailing lists. I'm suspecting something similar may be happening to the lists. I'd appreciate insight as to how the Mailman system works. Thanks -- Gretchen Ohmann Lady Weave Web Design P.O.

[Mailman-Users] FW: connection refused by lists.
Aha. I thought as much. And indeed, the sender uses an AOL account. Thanks, everyone, for the tips! Gretchen -Original Message- From: John W.

The sending MTA--aside from anything else--has a remarkably short retry limit. There are, for example, a bunch of school districts around here to which they couldn't send mail on weekends as the districts shut their servers down. (The districts we send to most often have stopped doing that.) --John -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org 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/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
Re: [Mailman-Users] connection refused by lists.
Greetings! I'm a newbie, a user, not a programmer -- and I have a question. A message to one of our lists didn't go through. Does the error message indicate a problem at the server or is it within the program? The list seems to be working fine now. Thanks for any advice you can give.
