[Mailman-Users] (no subject)
Good day, When importing a mailing list using mass import, is there a way that one can import the persons name and email address at the same time?

Hello, I have happily noticed that mass subscription allows for a b [EMAIL PROTECTED] rather than just [EMAIL PROTECTED]. But I see two problems: 1. if a or b includes a letter with an accent, mailman says that the invitation/susbcription has failed. 2. the subscriber list for members includes email addresses only; there are no names.

[Mailman-Users] Reject *to* non-subscriber
I've seen several posts about restricting non-subscribers from posting. This is a little different. I run a private list where the list-members have decided they don't want non-subscribers on the threads at all. But occasionally one will forget and cross-post. I'd like to bounce subscriber messages where a non-subscriber is anywhere on the receiver list. Is there anything like this currently available or contemplated?

[Mailman-Users] Mail Stuck in Mail Queue
Hey guys I am running MailMan version 2.1.9.cp2 on a RHEL 4 box with cPanel 11. One of my cleints has a list with about 10,000 subscribers. It is set up as a news list (only the owner sends mail oue to the subscribers) that gets an email sent about 3-4 times a year. I have noticed that when the owner sends out an email, several emaisl get 'stuck' in the mail queue with about 500 recipients per mail. I have nothing set on the server to limit any user in the amount of mail they can send. The mail was sent out 2 days ago and stil about 19 emails with up to 500 recipients are in the queue. I have noticed that among the recipients are addresses that have already received the mailing from the owner. I guess I have a few questions... 1) Is this 'normal' activity? 2) Why does the mail stay in the queue even for recipients that have already received the mail? 3) Is there a setting within MailMan that can control this? 4) Any suggestions based on the described activity that will help the lists run better?
