Re: [Mailman-Users] Can mailman pickup mail via pop3

That's usefull thanks!! I may be able to get it work.

However, is there anyway to do it without having the local MTA involved at
all?

 A program called 'fetchmail' can... fetch mail, from a POP3 server and
 deliver it using the local MTA. It's pretty easy to set up.

 Mailman can do this natively. It's pretty trivial; you just change the
 SMTPHOST variable in your mm_cfg.py appropriately.
 Alternatively, you can set up the MTA on the mailman machine (FWIW, I
 recommend Postfix) to deliver via a smart host. This is also pretty
 easy to do.

fetchmail could theoretically be configured to deliver directly to
mailman's wrappers. However, I think it'd be much easier to use
fetchmail as it's designed (i.e., to deliver to the local MTA), and
then use the MTA to deliver to mailman- a configuration that is much
more mature and which we can much more easily support.

[Mailman-Users] Can mailman pickup mail via pop3

2006-12-06 Thread Matthew
Hi all,

I was wondering if this was possible with mailman:

I would like to be able to have mailman pickup incoming mail to the list
via an external POP3 server (important) and submit it out to the
list via an external SMTP server (not as important).

If this can't work does anyone have any ideas on a good way to make mailman
work when you don't have full control of the mail server?

Thanks
