Everytime I run mailman from one of like 50 lists I
get
Failure to exec script. WANTED gid 99, GOT gid 514. (Reconfigure to take 514?)
and gid 514 changes based on which user executed this script... HOW Do I fix this please? I can't find the configuration files anywhere I have Mailman store
Just to be on the safe side I use:
grep -c ^"From " .mbox
To separate them by Month use something like:
grep ^"From " .mbox |grep -c " Mar "
The months are: Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, May, Jun, Jul, Aug, Sep, Oct, Nov,
Dec.
Good Luck

The log files record all subscriptions. You could easily write some
scripts to parse the log files (~mailman/logs/..) nightly and send your
automated messages.
Good Luck

Each message starts with a line like "From [EMAIL PROTECTED]",

I recently added subscribers using a dump from a database list which I
manually edited to remove some extraneous characters. I didn't look

As far as I know, you can unsubscribe by: sending email to

Does Mailman have the ability to automatically send a pre-written
message to subscribers based on their length-of-subscription? For
example, we would like to send one message to each subscriber after they
have been with us for a week, then a different message after they have
been subscribed for a

You should go ahead and upgrade to the latest version of Mailman
(v2.0.13).
Also, you can edit the file ~mailman/Mailman/mm_cfg.py and modify the
value for: SMTP_MAX_RCPTS = 500 and change it to 1
SMTP_MAX_RCPTS = 1
This will leave a trace for each individual email on the list. You only

Hi there!
I am a Debian Woody admin who some days ago installed (via Debian's
apt-get) Mailman 2.0.11 and yesterday, when I tried to use it I suffered
of locked mails. Searching on the web I found this page:

where someone had
If you ran $prefix/bin/check_perms OK then look at youf httpd.conf file.
It may be that a -FollowSymLinks Option is being applied that is stopping
the symbolic link in $prefix/archives/public directory to the public list's
archive being followed. This is mentioned in the MM INSTALL document.

About five minutes after I sent this, I came up with a solution that
