I've also come to know there are installer script available to get rid of 
this problem, is it so? I am also suggested to use throttling. Does it solve 
such issues?

I suspect you don't understand how emails are counted. Each list message 
to each recipinet probably counts as one email. If I'm understanding you 
correctly, your are sending 50 to 60 messages per day to 360 users. 50 
times 360 is 18,000 outgoing messages per day.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Sevier Issue with mails, are these compromised?

2012-05-16 Thread David
Are you referring to the problem that your daily email traffic is 11,655 or
more and your host has specific quotas that limit your email volume?

If the quota is 500 per hour, that is 12,000 messages total in 24 hours. As
you mentioned, your traffic can exceed that level (18,000 outgoing messages
per day was mentioned in a prior message). So throttling will not totally
solve your problem. It might help a little, but it doesn't sound like a
long term solution.

I have no idea how an installer script could possibly help. I would say
that's likely a misunderstanding. Don't expect an installer script to
magically reduce your traffic level or increase your quota on your current
host. An installer script might be part of the solution if you move to a
new host.

Why don't you contact some potential new hosts and see who is willing to
help you migrate your list to their service?

Good luck.

[Mailman-Users] Sevier Issue with mails, are these compromised?

2012-05-14 Thread Amit Bhatt
Hello all,

I have recently shifted my site and mailing list on Hostgator server here in 
India.
Today, I've got an E-Mail from them saying that as per the mail policy, our 
members can send 500 mails per hour but we are exceeding the number of mails a 
day!
While the fact is we have around 360 members and we send hardly 50 to 60 
messages in entire day of 24:00.
so, I am unable to understand what's wrong with us. Are some of our mails 
account got hacked and compromised?
Hostgator team has send me the number of messages and Email addresses sent 
from: 
-- 
sayeverything-boun...@sayeverything.org: 11,655 
mailman-boun...@sayeverything.org: 4 
sayev...@in6.hostgator.in: 2 
modera...@sayeverything.org: 1 

They also send me some Random recipient addresses. 

Please advise me, what it looks like, problem with some mailman setting at our 
end? any issue with the technicality of my service provider? or as I suspect, 
are above mail accounts being misused?

Thanks,

Amit Bhatt

2012-05-14 Thread Amit Bhatt
So, does it mean that we cannot run our mailman with hosting provider like 
Hostgator? If this is the case, who is good service provider where our 
mailing list can work properly without such interruption.

Hi Amit:

You will not be able to use that mailman list with Hostgator due to 
their email limits. I recommend you to check out our mailman hosting 
services at http://www.mailmanhost.com. We have a number of clients from 
Hostgator and Bluehost who use us to host their mailman lists since we 
do not impose any limits on our mailman clients.


Please let me know if you have any questions.
