[Mailman-Users] How to delete large numbers of held messages
We had a mail loop on one of our lists and ended up with over 51k messages in
pending (held due to post not form a list member)
Trying to delete them from the web UI will take forever, as the largest
pagination you can view is 200 at a time.
Tried to delete them from the Python interactive shell, but it looks like the
API times out after a while.
Is there another way to delete all these unwanted held posts?
The problem comes after executing:
reqs = list(adminlist.held)
After a couple of minutes it comes back with:

Is the unsubscribe notice used for bad addresses as well as unsubscribes? Yes. When a member is unsubscribed by automated bounce processind, the same message is sent to the list owner if bounce_notify_owner_on_removal is Yes. Also, if bounce_notify_owner_on_disable is Yes, there will be a notice to the list owner containing the triggering bounce at the time the member's delivery is disabled which may or may bot be the same as the time the member is removed depending on the setting of bounce_you_are_disabled_warnings. So these may have been legitimate bounce unsubscribes or they may have been bounce unsubscribes due to some abnormal mail delivery failure or they may be something else.

Why would you need to change any templates? the 'en' ones are all
us-ascii which is a proper subset of iso-8859-1.
I tried changing the selection in Defaults.py for English to
iso-8859-1,
but that did not do it.
It seems you've changed the question from how do I put HTML into .txt
templates to how do I change the character set of Mailman generated
list mail.
From this, I gather that the real issue you are trying to address is
inclusion of non-ascii characters in templates.
If that is the case, changing the character set for 'en' from us-ascii
to iso-8859-1 or utf-8 should work provided the non-ascii characters
in the templates are encoded in the same (iso-8859-1 or utf-8)
encoding.
It is best not to change this in Defaults.py, but rather override it in
mm_cfg.py (see the FAQ at http://wiki.list.org/x/fIA9) with a line
add_language('en', 'English (USA)', 'iso-8859-1', 'ltr')
(and the omission of the i18n _() around 'English (USA)' is
intentional).
As to why this didn't seem to work when you changed Defaults.py, did
you restart Mailman after the change?

Re: [Mailman-Users] Availability of patches on Launchpad
It looks like logging out and closing everything and relogging in allows me to see a few patches. However, in addition to yours, dozens of others are missing. I can't say I think much of the usefulness of Lauchpad's search functions, since there is not one to simply search a project.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Availability of patches on Launchpad
Not sure what patches your are seeing, but right now there are zero patches on Launchpad and the are removed from Sourceforge. Having two different Mailman listings on Launchpad does not help, either. Only one has the pogram - but neither have any patches. https://launchpad.net/mailman/+download has the standard Mailman program. ~mailman has nothing.

[Mailman-Users] Mailman not sending email to list users / Archives giving 403
I had a server crash and I needed to move two domains that are using
mailman lists to a new server. I didn't think this was a big deal
because they were moved from server that was taken out of production to
the server that crashed without issue. Everything seems to be working
just fine. They can manage their lists and add new ones but two things
are happening now.
First, the archives are giving 403 errors when you try to view them.
Apache logs a client denied by server configuration: error. Here are
the current permissions:
drwxrws--x 26 root mailman 808 Jul 9 14:36 private
drwxrwsr-x 2 root mailman 288 Jul 9 14:36 public
All the subdirectories in private are set to drwxrwsr-x with the
root:mailman user/group. All the html and txt files are set to 644. And
in the .mbox dirs the .mbox file is set to 664.
I'm not sure why it's pulling a 403 error. Is there something I missed?
I ran bin/check_perms -f everything once they were moved over and it
fixed all the permissions and ownerships.
Second, none of the email is being sent to the list users. If a new user
joins the list the welcome letter is sent. If a non-user tries to post
to the list the moderators are emailed and the poster is emailed the
your post awaits approval but the registered list users are not
receiving emails.
This is what I see in the maillog: 2008-07-14 16:13:20 1KIUQB-00053s-5D
= test [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=mailman_router T=mailman_transport
I'm using Exim 4.69 with Mailman 2.1.10

$local_part
current_directory = /mail/${domain}/mailman

MAILMAN_USER and MAILMAN_GROUP are mailman.
Can anyone give me any insight on this please?

As the author of mmdsr, I'll say that you should be able to feed it old Mailman log data and have it just work, but I won't guarantee that. If you try this and it doesn't work for you, please let me know and I'll try to work with you to modify the code so that it does just work when fed old log data. Keep in mind that there's a good chunk of mmdsr where it goes and looks at the current status of what is in the various queue directories, etc... and this obviously won't be relevant for processing of historical log data. I should probably add a command-line flag so that you can tell it whether to just do the summary based on the log data (which should work regardless of whether the data is historical or current), or to do the log data summary plus the current condition report. Let me think about that, and see if I have any time available. Alright, I just ran a blanketed request that went through the whole log file, which was pretty nice since I haven't rotated ever. It goes back to April 2006. I do have some questions about the report though, and please forgive my ignorance. I use MM but I really haven't dove into like I should have so I'm still a little shaky on how things work. According to the report one list has 14,297 posts but according to the Post Count by Sender report 13,797 of those posts came from [EMAIL PROTECTED] So does that mean that only 500 posts were made by members or are those 13,797 more then just commands from the members? I would appreciate a better explanation on that. Also, under the Hourly Summary of Message Sent report from the smtp log. The totals are based on how many email addresses the message was sent to, correct? So if a list has 250 members it counts each message per member? I know that it bundles the message per connection so a single SMTP connect could have 100 messages in it. I just want to make sure. The problem is that my email server is being beaten in to the ground and it looks like this clients lists (they have 8 or so) are seeing a heavy increase in membership and frequency. I need to put numbers together so I can tell them they need to either get a dedicated list server or pay more (so I can upgrade!). Any help would be great. I'm just a bit ignorant on the internal workings of MM but am learning. Plus I don't know Python from a hole in the ground so I'm leery about messing with code to much. -- 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=showamp;file=faq01.027.htp

So I'm sure I'm understanding you correctly then that some of those message could be valid posts made by members since this list was around since 2.1.4 or so? These are all valid posts made by list members. Everything in the 'post' log should be a valid post to the list. Occasionally, when there is an smtp-failure on a mailman generated message (say a reject of spam with a forged non-existant local address), you can get a failure entry in the post log even though the message wasn't a post, but if you filter out the failures (or the [EMAIL PROTECTED] message-ids), everything else is a legitimate list post. Note that these failures appear in the mmdsr report under Other Messages:-Log file: post. Thanks. That helps a lot. Thanks for the information. I'm tearing apart the post log because I want to get the total size of the message. Then I need to figure out how many emails where sent so I can figure out bandwidth usage. I mean if they send a 10K file to a list with 1,000 members that's a lot of bandwidth to send out. Yes, but if you want to be truly accurate, you also have to look at your MTA logs. For example, if a 10K message is sent to a list with 1000 members, and the list is not personalized, and the message is not VERPed in Mailman, mailman might deliver this to the MTA in say 5 transactions with 200 recipients each for a total exchange between Mailman and the MTA of about 50K plus the address list. The MTA in turn might batch delivery so if say 50 of those 1000 recipients are in the aol.com domain, the MTA might send one 10K + transaction to AOL for all 50, rather that sending 10K 50 times.

We started using mailman for announce only mailing list for our school district. We have all the subscribers setup to be moderated so they can't post to the list.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Weirdness
Mailman maintains a current version of its config file and a backup that is one generation older. It sounds to me like the current config is corrupt and it is falling back on the backup. This should show up in the logs, probably the error log or maybe qrunner. Something you can try is to run bin/dumpdb on the config.pck and config.pck.last files for that list to see if it throws an exception or reports a problem.

[Mailman-Users] Sender filters discard messages but can't forward to the list owner?
MailMan Users list. Here is what seems to be to be a limitation of MailMain, I am writing to this list to confirm the limitation as I understand it. I want to have a moderated announce-only list where list members cannot post to the list. I have done this by making all of my users moderated. In Privacy options Sender Filters, I can set members' messages to be Accepted, Held, Rejected, or Discarded. What I want are the messages to be Discarded, but ALSO forwarded to the mailing list owner. It seems that this is impossible with MailMan, please confirm if this is your understanding as well. I was trying to configure it this way because I wanted users to be able to hit 'Reply' and send an unsubscribe request and have their message be intercepted by the MailMan software (it says it can intercept message that look like admin requests), perform the necessary unsubscribe, OR if the message does not appear to be an admin request, forward it to the list owner. If I set the Reply-To of the to be the list owner always (or an explicit address in General Options), then when a user hits 'reply' and types a command it goes to that list owner's email address, by passing the list altogether. Please let me know if there is any way I can do what I am trying to do with Mail Man. What I am concluding from this experience is the MailMan is basically programmed only to let you unsubscribe in two ways: 1) using the unsubscribe email address provided in the List Headers 2) using the URL provided in the user's General List Info page It is not programmed to intercept messages and check them to see if they are requests and forward them if they are not.

[Mailman-Users] Mailman options
I have a customer that is essentially asking me for a mailing list that is not the traditional mailman way of doing things. I started out customizing Mailman in several ways according to their requests, however they are, I think, needing another system and I'm just not sure where to find such a creature. They had a problem where their provider started spamming their list and had to change, thus this is where I come into the mix, and they simply want to send out their own newsletters intermittently and not allow members to chat with each other, but when they send messages that they go back to the administrator. They also do not want users to have to worry about passwords and they want unsubscription will be as simple as clicking a link in the newsletter. One final kicker is that they want reporting on if members addresses have become invalid (ie messages bounced to them). Can mailman be customized to function after this manner (basically providing a super clean interface for subscribers with the above options) or should I be looking for another solution? If I should be looking for another solution does anyone know of such an application?

[Mailman-Users] Installation Error - ImportError: No module named korean
Hi, I am a new user trying to install Mailman for the first time and the 'make install' routine is throwing up an error: Compiling /usr/local/mailman/Mailman/i18n.py ... Compiling /usr/local/mailman/Mailman/mm_cfg.py ... Compiling /usr/local/mailman/Mailman/versions.py ... Traceback (most recent call last): File bin/update, line 46, in ? import paths File bin/paths.py, line 59, in ? import korean ImportError: No module named korean make: *** [update] Error 1 Having looked at the archives this seems to be a previous problem, but should have been resolved? Also from the archives I have noted that /usr/local/mailman/pythonlib/ is entirely empty. My 'configure command is: ./configure --with-mail-gid=admin --with-cgi-gid=mailman And this does not seem to throw up any errors. I am installing the latest version - 2.1.5 - from the list.org website. Python info: Python 2.2.2 (#1, Mar 12 2004, 16:44:37) [GCC 3.2.2 20030217 (Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2.2-2)] on linux2 I am installing onto a Virtual Server hosted by DSVR in the UK. Can anyone help??

[Mailman-Users] Rejected RCPT - Sender Verfy Fail
I am now receiving this error with any new list created - when an attempt to post or who or anything. Does not happen with old lists. Even tried copying one list to another - no difference. See no answer in archives. Running v2.1.5 and was on 2.1.3. Old lists created on that. -- 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/
[Mailman-Users] Changing List Name
Since v2.1.5, the FAQ's are no longer correct in changing a list name. The Realname cannot be changed - error occurs and tells you are not allowed to change ral name. Any idea how to do so now? Cannot change/import setting through config_list either. Same error cannot change real name. -- 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/
[Mailman-Users] Mailman not delivering.
Hi All, we have just installed Mailman, and I'm pretty sure we followed instructions to the letter. The admin and list info functions work fine via the Web Interface. However the software doesn't deliver any mail to anyone. Exerpt from logs. SMTP log Feb 19 19:09:02 2001 (16657) All recipients refused: host not found Feb 19 19:09:02 2001 (16657) smtp for 5 recips, completed in 0.144 seconds SMTP-FAILURE log Feb 19 19:10:05 2001 (1) -1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] (ignore) Feb 19 19:10:05 2001 (1) -1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] (ignore) System is RH 6.2 running Sendmail which isn't reporting any errors in it's logs. Some of the archives of this list seem to suggest it may be that we haven't setup the correct crontab entries, however crontab.in is listed for user mailman which I think is all we need. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Joseph -- Mailman-Users maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users
