[Mailman-Users] Need help with Mailman software
Greetings, My name is Justin Viera and I work for Wareham Public Schools in Wareham, MA. We are just setting up our list server using mailman software and we ran into a problem that the company we are using to host can't seem to give us an answer on. In the "archives" section, how would you delete threads or the entire archive if we wished to do so in case something that no longer applied or we didnt want seen got posted. I know there is filtering but some things that are allowed to mail out we dont necessarily want permanently showing on the archives. Please help!!

[Mailman-Users] Changing internationalization
Hi, I'm using the German translation of Mailman. Unfortunately, the German translation is not complete and has quite a few errors and I'd like to correct them. How can I make Mailman include my corrections? Simply editing the file messages/de/LC_MESSAGES/mailman.po doesn't have any effect.

RE: [Mailman-Users] HTML
Yes you can. But I'm afraid I've lost sight of the original problem you're experiencing. There is nothing prohibiting html messages thru mailman except the individual settings for your list. Have you looked at your Content Filtering settings? - yes Is is set to convert html to plain text? - no, its set not to convert it. Is it set to remove attachments with the text/html content type? -Not sure haven't looked at this and will do so now. What happens when you send html messages? -When I send one out, it send it but when it comes over, it has all the graphics as attachments, and the text is laid out but with html link tags shows instead, it still comes as html, just strips the graphics I have sent that are embedded , such as sending a html webpage from site to the list. But when it comes the text and all are there, the graphics(jpgs) are removed from seeing and sent on as attached files. What exactly do you see? -See above Do the html tags get displayed as text rather than showing the html result? -Yes Or do you just see the text, no html tags, no html? -I see text, in html, with tags and links ive made for things. Perhaps it's something in your particular email program? -I send via outlook to mailman 2.1.3 Have you tried a different email program or a webmail site? -I don't have another email program, will try form another site and see what's up. \ Thanks you so much for looking into this with me. I hope to sort it out as bcentral, which I was using for emails, is just one helluva pricey thing. But it send s out just what I need. I am sure mailman can do the job but have to get over this hump.

[Mailman-Users] mladmin script
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello, I recently completed an upgrade from Mailman 2.0.11 -> 2.1.4 on our server, and things seem to have gone reasonably well (we did get bit briefly by the requirement to modify aliases in /etc/aliases though). I do have two questions, however, that I'm hoping someone on the list can help clarify. 1. Due to the ungodly quantity of spam that our lists are currently receiving, we had been making use a neat perl script called 'mladmin' that we found on Sourceforge. Basically it allows long queues of held posts to be deleted all at once, instead of the labour-intensive 'discard one-by-one via the web admin interface' approach. Since the upgrade, unfortunately, the mladmin script no longer works :-( It reports the queue as empty even when there actually are held posts in queue, and it reports no errors. Has anyone else experienced this, and is there a workaround or solution? 2. Is there any plan to include a feature in Mailman that will allow long spam-filled queue's to be deleted all at one time? I really hope so, because the current web interface is really just too time-consuming for our list moderators, given the high volume of spam we are receiving.

Re: [Mailman-Users] View list subscription
There are a couple of ways to get your complete list of subscribers. 1- Use the Membership Management/Membership list on the admin page If you have shell access, here is the process to make your admin interface membership management/membership list display more than the default number of subscribers. cd /lists/bin ./config_list -o list_name.txt list_name Edit list_name.txt and add the following: # Increase viewable member list in Admin interface admin_member_chunksize = 100 (note: you can make this number whatever you want, depending on the number of subscribers) ./config_list -i list_name.txt list_name rm list_name.txt 2- As a user, enter your password and email address on the list information page. 3- Temporarily, change who can view the list of subscribers (done on the admin page) to 'administrator only' and then do #1 above and enter your admin password. 4- If you have shell access, you can use the /lists/bin/list_members command and write the results to file.

[Mailman-Users] domain woes
Our mail server (host.my.domain) recieves mail addressed to @host.my.domain and @my.domain. Right now, it is set up to send mail as @my.domain, but before, it was set up to send mail as however joe user had it set up in eudora to send (either @host.my.domain or @my.domain). However, since the change to force @my.domain on outgoing mail (using the "MASQUERADE_AS" option on sendmail, many users have complained that they cannot post to mailing lists because they subscribed as @host.my.domain. Is there a way to set up mailman to accept either domain as coming from the same domain? i.e. : if Joe user ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) subscribed to my a list as "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" through the web interface, is there a way that I can let him post as "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"? I realize that I could set up a filter to specifically allow "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" to post, but I would prefer that mailman accept an "@my.domain" address to be treated the same as the corresponding "@host.my.domain" addresses. /tim -- Tim Faircloth, System Administrator GSW OIIT Office: (229) 931-5076 Beeper: (229) 928-1458 -- 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] Vs Listserv
Hi I'm new to Mailman (currently run several Listserv servers) and haven't yet got my linux box up and running to test Mailman out on, however I am interested to get a few general impressions on the software first. If anyone here has experience with Listserv, how do you think Mailman compares to it? Off the top of my head, I'm thinking along the lines of issues like: - Listserv being compiled, including it's cgi web interface, whereas Mailman uses an interpretted language which presumably has an impact on performance. Of course, Listserv may be more bloated than Mailman, so that could be an offset. - How does a Mailman system handle say 5,000 mailing lists, big lists with 5,000+ subscribers or archive searches over say 100Mb of message files? One thing with Listserv is that it is single threaded which means that a big archive search for example can hold other processes up significantly. You can have multiple instances of it's web interface but if they need to interact with the main Listserv executable when it's busy they have to wait. I presume you can have multiple Python processes, which would effectively make Mailman multi-threaded? - How well does it manage to block out of office messages. eg: some OoO systems send responses back to the Reply-To: address, which can be a pain if it's the list address and on Listserv you have to set up a content-filter - is there a content filter in Mailman to capture such things? - Can list owners get any list-based statistics, like how many people join, leave or post to the list in a given period, or are logs easily parsable and comprehensive enough for a site admin to do this? - How easy is it to "tap in" to Mailman's authentication system? For example, if you wanted to add your own feature like a file area/upload mechanism, but you want to make sure only subscribers with a valid login can get to it, can you easily check Mailman's working files or are passwords encrypted?

Recently, I've looked at the freelists.org running on ecartis: http://www.ecartis.org/ It seems that the lists on freelists have some interesting options, which Mailman haven't got, so maybe you could introduce some of them into Mailman. I put some screenshots over there: http://znik.wbc.lublin.pl/~ak/rozne/ecartis/ Description of the options: http://www.freelists.org/help/ I like that it has statistics, quoting limits and strip-headers (a colon seperated list of headers to remove from outgoing messages).

You can view the list of subscribers (and search it) using the web interface, under Membership Management. It doesn't yet let you export the list from the web, but if you have shell access you can use list_members [listname].

The way Mailman treats this variable makes it so that you *must* instead make the change in: DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN = 'http://%s/mailman/' In your case I think this will work: DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN = 'http://%s:8080/mailman/' > > to my mm_cfg.py file at the end. > > I then stopped and started mailmanctl. > > When I try again the url still keeps loosing the port# 8080 from the URL. > > > Referencing the following list off the create page returns similar no > port# url as follows. > > > http://pipeline.langara.bc.ca/mailman/admin (overview) > > http://pipeline.langara.bc.ca/mailman/listinfo (list overview) > > > Can you offer any suggestions on how to keep the port# in the URL's for > mailman? > > > Thanks > > Jim > Give that a try, Jim. Note: I believe that your existing lists will already have the old URL stored in their database (config.pck) - so you will need to either recreate the lists (after making the above change) or you will have to use "withlist" to modify the url inside the existing lists databases.

It's not just that *I* don't like it, millions of other poor innocent people don't like it. Hear the voice of reason, do not subject the masses to such evil. If you want to promote your company or service, use the web, you can link to it in your emails. Email should be a plain text medium. You also have the advantage of knowing that your message is going to look the same in any email client in the world. HTML is plain dangerous, there have been numerous examples of virii spreading using HTML and vulnerabilities in everyone's favourite MUA - Lookout. As a duty of care to your 'customers' do not use it, they'll thank you for it eventually. "HTML usually looks like it has been designed by stoned amateur chimpanzees using Front Page Express with their feet" Oh, and if you think you actually like flashy-seizure-inducing HTML mail - I wholeheartedly invite you to take an agonising look at http://www.seizurerobots.com This is getting way off topic, this is all I'm going to say on the subject.

Re: [Mailman-Users] New list password

You were asked for a list password, or one was created for you. Either way it was probably emailed to you. You can use the site password to gain access to the list and change the list password, if you've forgotten that, you can use mmsitepass to change it, on my Debian install of Mailman it's at /var/lib/mailman/bin, but YMMV.
