Re: [Mailman-Users] cant't create lists within the webinterface
Thanks John! But that was not the only problem between SELinux and mailman. With SELinux turned on I couldn't import a list of new members. I got the error that no usable temporary file could be found.

[Mailman-Users] Discarding stripped messages and rejecting implicit declaration posts.
I have two Mailman lists and a problem for each. 1. On the first messages with disallowed attachments are stripped of these, but not held for moderator approval. I would like to see them held for such, how do I accomplish this? 2. On a different list messages that are posted either with implicit declarations or with to many recipients are being held for moderator approval. I would like them to be discarded. How do I do this? I've tried to look up and down the administration interface to find the correct options, but can't seem to find the right mix. On the first one I thought selecting filter_action discard would be of use, but this had no effect. The remainder of the message was still sent to the list. --lars -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org 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] RE: Question about Mailman feature
Hello, I had a question about a particular Mailman feature. There is an option that states preserve message for site admin Until yesterday I was under the impression that this meant the messages in the pending request queue would remain there untouched. But I was testing it out with this option checked and the messages are always deleted from the pending requests page unless you select the defer option. When they specify that a copy is kept for the site administrator do they actually mean that the pending message is deleted from the page but saved on the machine housing the list messages? Is this only accessible only by those with direct access to the hardware it's stored on and not the list admin/mods? Hopefully you can clarify things for me a bit.

Re: [Mailman-Users] mailman isn't sending the posts out.
Hi Bryan, i am having more or less the same problem. I send messages to my lists, they are given over to the wrapper/mailman. They are even archived, but they do not get sent. Nothing in the MTA-logs. Just the bounces for the subscribers get also filed in the smtp-failures log. This is after a new install on SUSE OpenExchange, postfix as MTA. I searched through the FAQ already, but i cannot find the answer. Somehow i have the feeling it lies with the right hostname and so on, but i am not sure.

[Mailman-Users] Mailman/VERP problems.
After several months of a nicely functioning Mailman server, I opted to enable VERP yesterday. We're running MM 2.1.4 on SuSE with exim. Since then most everything has worked fine, until an announcement only list of 4000 sent a message earlier this afternoon. Of the roughly 4000 messages, about 1600 are now frozen in the exim queue. The exim queue has lots of entries like this: 2005-02-03 12:27:31 1CwklP-0002Rm-5i = [EMAIL PROTECTED] H=localhost (server.org) [127.0.0.1] P=esmtp S=47504 [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2005-02-03 12:27:31 1CwklP-0002Rm-5i ** [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=dnslookup T=remote_smtp: SMTP error from remote mailer after RCPT TO:[EMAIL PROTECTED]: host mxb.earthlink.net [207.217.125.26]: 550 [EMAIL PROTECTED] unknown . . . 2005-02-03 12:27:32 1CwklP-0002S1-Rp ** [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=mailman_router T=mailman_transport: Child process of mailman_transport transport returned 6 from command: /usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman Resulting in the following from syslog: Feb 3 12:27:32 list Mailman mail-wrapper: Illegal command: bounces+namepart=domain.tld It seems that suddenly large numbers of addresses are suddenly bouncing. Mailman is then chocking on the bounces. I followed the instructions from http://www.exim.org/howto/mailman21.html#verpin when I setup VERP. I'm not carefully reviewing those changes to check for mistakes. If anyone has insight into why so many addresses are suddenly bouncing, and why mailman is chocking on the bounces I would very much appreciate it. The other detail worth mentioning is that several smaller lists are continuing to function properly. This list was transferred some time ago from another server.

I saw a lot of people saying this is why I strip attachments. I saw Stephanie's (very helpful) post, but when I checked the box she referenced I found it empty, as I expected. I found that even the list owner's mod bit (who the virus spoofed) was set, and the list owner in turn scanned his own machine for virii right after this got out. Nada. I checked the vette log. The message isn't even in there. Some of the auto-replies to it are (i.e. message rejected, it's a virus). And the message shows in the pipermail archives. In the end, this group I'm working with has had a lot of unsubscribes as a result of this, and are switching to a different system that I'm not hosting, so I'm a bit apathetic about the whole deal. I'm still sure there's something I'm missing, and if someone wanted to try and give me a clue as to how this happened, I've saved that day's sendmail logs, and I've got all the following: Here's the message in the archives: http://lists.vagrassroots.org/pipermail/vgc-announce/2005q1/38.html Here's a snippet of that day's vette log: Jan 26 21:26:54 2005 (39137) Vgc-announce post from [EMAIL PROTECTED] held, message-id=01a901c50416$42a15c70$a3bafea9 @micronxp: Message has implicit destination Jan 26 21:28:58 2005 (3682) held message approved, message-id: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jan 26 21:28:58 2005 (3682) vgc-announce: Discarded posting: From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Fwd: FW: Media Advisory Reason: No reason given Jan 27 23:12:05 2005 (39137) Vgc-announce post from [EMAIL PROTECTED] held, message-id=05b001c504ef$a199e740$6b0 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Post to moderated list Jan 27 23:25:36 2005 (39137) Vgc-announce post from [EMAIL PROTECTED] held, message-id=010901c504ef$fe21a5c0$a3bafea9 @micronxp: Post to moderated list Jan 27 23:27:42 2005 (39495) held message approved, message-id: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jan 27 23:27:43 2005 (39495) vgc-announce: Refused posting: From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Reply: virus in your message from: [Virginia Grassroots Coalition] Delivery by mail Reason: No reason given Jan 28 08:46:48 2005 (39137) Vgc-announce post from [EMAIL PROTECTED] held, message-id=[EMAIL PROTECTED] org: Post by non-member to a members-only list Jan 28 08:53:02 2005 (99241) vgc-announce: Discarded posting: From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Delivery service mail Reason: No reason given Here's the full headers of the thing: Return-Path: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Received: from prime.gushi.org (localhost [IPv6:::1]) by prime.gushi.org (8.13.1/8.13.1) with ESMTP id j0S2GH5b080701 for [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Thu, 27 Jan 2005 22:50:56 -0500 (EST) Received: from ROBERTA.net (pcp08579508pcs.alxndr01.va.comcast.net [68.83.208.54]) by prime.gushi.org (8.13.1/8.13.1) with SMTP id j0S2FV8o080233 for [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Thu, 27 Jan 2005 21:15:35 -0500 (EST) Date: Thu, 27 Jan 2005 21:05:09 -0500 From: Ericgraves [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Security: MIME headers sanitized on prime.gushi.org See http://www.impsec.org/email-tools/sanitizer-intro.html for details. $Revision: 1.139 $Date: 2003-09-07 10:14:23-07 X-Security: The postmaster has not enabled quarantine of poisoned messages.

Hi myself ;-) Martin Mewes [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote : apparently I forgot to set that I do not want double message filtered out, so I just want to say that the answer given to this post did the trick :-) After I did PUBLIC_MBOX = Yes in mm_cfg.py and did a bin/arch --wipe listname afterwards I installed a new list. Well totally empty at the beginning, but after some messages I checked if the mbox-download is available and there was none. Then I waited for the nightly runs of mailman-cron's thinking they will be enalbled then, but in the end I had to do this for this list again in order to have the mbox-download.

Hi, Dan Mahoney, System Admin wrote: I saw a lot of people saying this is why I strip attachments. Mailman 2.1.6 has a nice feature for those who can't strip attachments; the new spam filter 'header_filter_rules' checks attachments' headers recursively. So, messages which have executable attatchments can be held, rejected, or discarded by your configuration. Regex patten like: content-.*name.*\.(exe|com|cmd|bat|pif|vbs|scr|zip) can match most of the current virus messages. Mailman 2.1.6 beta 2 can be downloaded from http://mm.tkikuchi.net/mailman-2.1.6b2.tgz Cheers, -- Tokio Kikuchi, tkikuchi@ is.kochi-u.ac.jp http://weather.is.kochi-u.ac.jp/ -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org 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/
