[Mailman-Users] Mailman feature request
Barry, First, thanks for all the nice new features. I have three minor requests for the next round. 1) When displaying the domain name in the listinfo and other web page headers, use the value from the preferred domain setting such that it will display in upper/lower case instead of all lower case. 2) Now that mailman keeps a name along with the email address (YEA!), It needs to (at least optionally) display the name with the email address in the member list. 3) Make requiring a password to unsubscribe optional. I manage a rather large list where I have applied the work around of setting up an unsubscribe address that runs through a script to add the master password before sending the request on to mailman. The problem is that there are too many people out there who forward their mail around until they have no idea what email address they subscribed from, so I spend half of my day wading through messages about failed unsubscribe requests. I can't have these go directly to the user because they reveal the master password. Annother nice, but I am sure very difficult feature, would be a way to include the subscribed email address in the outgoin email. Again, thanks Barry for all you work. Regards, Richard -- Richard B.

[Mailman-Users] Changing list headers
Hi, all, I just upgraded to Mailman 2.1, and apparently a change has been made in how the From: header is contructed. I'd like to change it back. The specific issue is that mail for each list appears to the client as from [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of as being from the actual sender, which was the behavior previously. It's a minor issue, but it's irritating a lot of my subscribers, so I'd like to resolve it. Thanks!

[Mailman-Users] Digest topic list - spurious line breaks
Howdy, I'm subscribed to a number of Mailman lists in digest form. There is a marked difference between the topic lists generated by Mailman 2.0.x and Mailman 2.1. Many of the topic lines are split at odd places, making reading them very arduous. Line breaks at the beginning of the topic or in the middle are not uncommon, and sometimes the line break is in the middle of a word! An example: the Mailman-Users Digest, Vol 4, Issue 68 has the following topic list: > Today's Topics: > >1. finding list members (Eric Luhrs) >2. Re: finding list members (John DeCarlo) >3.

Re: [Mailman-Users] implicit addressing
Hmmm... That sounds like an unending email circle. How about this: - redirect the alias for the new Mailman list to the current list. - create a second unadvertised alias and point that at the Mailman list - subscribe this second unadvertised alias to the current list - as you delete them from the current list, add them to the Mailman list That should get you what you want. All requests (using the current list name and the new Mailman list name) go to the current list where it gets sent to any folks still on the old list and then sent to any folks who have been moved over to the Mailman list. Once everyone is moved over, then you simply remove the redirect from the Mailman list (replacing the unadvertised alias with the real alias) and all is well. For this to work you will will still need to take care of the implicit destination problem. Configure your Mailman list to either, allow non-explicit destinations (the name of the mailing list does not appear in the To: field or the CC: field of the email). Under Privacy Options in the Web-admin: Must posts have list named in destination (to, cc) field (or be among the acceptable alias names, specified below == No or fill in the names of the current list and the second unadvertised list as acceptable aliases for this Mailman list Under Privacy Options in the Web-admin: Alias names (regexps) which qualify as explicit to or cc destination names for this list Hope this wasn't too confusing! -- Jon Carnes On Wed, 2003-01-22 at 16:48, Sarah Baker wrote: > So we're trying to smoothly transition an existing > mailing list on another system over to mailman. > > So we've put the mailman list as a member of the > existing mailing list, and I've added that mailing > list as a member of the mailman list. > > How can I get the mailman mailing list to accept > the other mailing list name as acceptible > for the list in the To: or cc: (ie not requiring explicit > administrative approval)? > > - > Sarah Baker > Technical Operations Manager > Carnegie Mellon University - West > 650-603-7014 > > -- > 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/ > > This message was sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Unsubscribe or change your options at > http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/jonc%40nc.rr.com -- 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/ This message was sent to: archive@jab.org Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org

Re: [Mailman-Users] Help with sending HTML mail and using externalweblinks for images
Yes. Marketing folks do it all the time. If you want a live example of an email that does this, just open up some spam from your mailbox and peruse the source/content of the email. Spammers us this technique all the time as a means of "registering" that the email arrived at an actual email address and was read. When a person opens the email, their Email App does a web look-up and down loads images from a website. One of the image pull downs will reference the email address (or group of email addresses) that the spam was sent to. This gives the spammers loads of info about the user: - verifies the email address as valid and used - indicates the users ip address, OS, and email client Take care - Jon Carnes BTW: Linux on the desktop helps break this "invasion" of privacy. My Evolution email client is set to "not" download images from html email. Though I can click on the email and have it download if I want it to.

Re: [Mailman-Users] dumping a large list to a file
This question comes up fairly regularly, so I wouldn't be surprised if its covered in the FAQ. When your lists get really big and it takes forever to do any maintenance to the config.db then you should look at using a RAM disk. You can either set aside working RAM for use as a disk or purchase a small battery backed-up RAM disk. Either way, you then simply mount the lists config directory on the RAM disk (and copy the old config directory over to it. After that your operations that used to take 8 hours take 8 minutes. The size of your Ram disk should be at least twice the size of your current config directory (which if you'll look is really quite small). Several folks on this list have similar setups and it has dramatically increased the responsiveness of huge lists - allowing them to keep Mailman running on their older less powerful servers. Another alternative is to move on up to version 2.1 and then to move all your configurations/email addresses into an SQL database. Good Luck - Jon Carnes On Wed, 2003-01-22 at 16:07, Scott R.

[Mailman-Users] dumping a large list to a file
I have a list with upwards of 600K emails on it.

The problem is when we work from the file that 'list_members' outputs, mailman spins its wheels trying to deliver mail to the nomail addresses(most of which are not valid addresses) and it slows things way down because the mail server has to deal with all these bounces.

I assume this proxy sites between your web browser and the world.
Looks like an accident waiting to happen if that regex and similar is run

Re: [Mailman-Users] htdig integration patches
Todd
It would help to know which version of the patch file you are using and
where you got it from.
I have grep'ed my copies of the various versions of my htdig patch file and
cannot find a line that reads as you assert yours does; see the grep
results below.
There are three lines containing the string "(os.system(cmd) >> 8) & 0xff"
in the various 2.1 patch files: one each for the scripts nightly_htdig,
remote_nightly_htdig and remote_nightly_htdig_noshare.
But I cannot see the assignment your copy of nightly_htdig is said to contain.
It would appear to be that the file added by the patch has been "corrupted"
somehow.
I'd suggest download a new copy of the latest version of the patch.
If I can be of further assistance then let me know.

Re: [Mailman-Users] htdig integration patches
Steve In response to your input I have posted a revised version of patch #444884 for MM 2.1 on sourceforge as file htdig-2.1-0.3.patch Thanks for your heads up on the problem and your observation. Sorry for the errors. Your suggested change was not quite right; good try but no cigar.:) I've commented below on the points you raised. Any further problems or comments with the patch then let me know. Richard At 23:41 21/01/2003, Steve Huston wrote: I've applied the patches, but have had a few problems. I emailed Richard Barrett through sourceforge, and don't know if you got it, so I'll start with what I've figured out since then. Should line 1485 of htdig-2.1-0.2.patch read "if (not ctype) or cencode:" instead of reading "if not (ctype and cencode):"? Because with the way it was, when I clicked on a found item from a search, it tried to download the file as type application/octet-stream, but changing it to (not ctype) or cencode lets it come properly as text/html. That one took a bit to figure :> The code is wrong but your solution is not correct. It should read "if not (ctype or cencode):" so that application/octet-stream is used when neither of the two (1)mime type (2)encoding can be guessed. There is also another error 3 lines down: ctype = "application/x-%s" % ctype should read: ctype = "application/x-%s" % cencode Sorry about that, I have posted a revised version of the patch (htdig-2.1-0.3.patch) with these errors corrected. Another thing I noticed is that it seems there are quite a few references in the code to "DEFAULT_URL", but I believe that changed to "DEFAULT_URL_HOST"; setting DEFAULT_URL to the same thing made some of the error messages I'd received actually work instead of dumping Python (somewhere in make_inserts). You are correct on this. htdig-2.1-0.3.patch corrects this. Lastly, I'm a little confused by one way things fit together. Granted, it works, but... Why does the htdig script make its results point to itself? For example, if I search for 'foo', and find an instance, the URL that the result points to is "http://host/mailman/htdig/listname/2003-January/06.html";. I tried setting HTDIG_ARCHIVE_URL to "/pipermail/" instead to get it to output the links as "http://host/pipermail/listname/2003-January/06.html";, but this seemed to have no effect. Perhaps this works differently than I'm thinking, but it seems more resource-effective to have the link point right to the file instead of going through another cgi, when we know the location of the file we're trying to get. One of the objectives of this patch was to preserve private archive privacy and make changing an archive from private to public or vice-versa a non-event from the archive search standpoint. Normally, private archive access is mediated by the $prefix/Mailman/Cgi/private.py which is what htdig.py was originally derived from. htdig.py does the same for document references returned by htsearch. I'm sure there are other ways of handling this issue and I might change it if and when I've got the time and energy. But as its working after a fashion ... I attempted to explain this in the INSTALL.htdig-mm file installed by the patch: Introduction ... 3. a common base URL for both public and private archive access via htsearch results. This means that htdig indices are unaffected by changing an archive from private to public and vice versa. All access to archives via htdig is controlled by a wrapped CGI script called htdig.py. ... The patch adds: -- $build/INSTALL.htdig-mm This file. $prefix/cgi-bin/htdig $prefix/Mailman/Cgi/htdig.py these are a CGI script and its wrapper, which is always on the path of URLs returned from searches of htdig indices. The script provides secure access to such URLs in the same way that the $prefix/cgi-bin/private and $prefix/Mailman/Cgi/private.py. htdig.py ensures private archives are kept private, applying the same criteria for permitting access as private.py, and delivering material from public archives without demanding any authentication.

[Mailman-Users] member database qyestion
assuming that Mailman is using a fully relational database is it possible to create a one to many relationship between the list of members and the names of a dozen databases? short and sweet I have a dozen elists and many of the members - ok, VERY many of the members belong to many of the elists. it would make it much easier to control a member or a class of members (bouncing, banned, change of subscription, yada) if the change could be made on a single member field in a membership table, for all of the lists those belong to. hope that is more clear than mud. thanks chas ... -- 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/ This message was sent to: archive@jab.org Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org

The offending email should have a check in > this spot. Uncheck it and it should start receiving email. The list members affected by the DNS outage are not on the list of the "Member management section" of the list admin interface. Since my post I've tried to fix the situation by unsubscribing all the list members, then subscribing them again, without success. Messages are still not sent to them. Here are excerpts from the logs: /home/mailman/logs/post: Jan 22 09:02:14 2003 (13236) post to alist from [EMAIL PROTECTED], size=1502, 60 failures /home/mailman/logs/smtp: Jan 22 09:02:14 2003 (13236) smtp for 61 recips, completed in 10.392 seconds /home/mailman/logs/bounce: Jan 22 09:02:14 2003 (13236) xxxlist: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - first -- then the same for other subscribers. Should I restart Mailman, if so, how do I do that? Or, should I backup lists, remove and then reinstall Mailman? Please help. Thank you.
