[Mailman-Users] Images lose integrity and size changes.
Pretty basic question, I'm hoping. First of all-Hello everyone! W hen sending a newsletter out via mailman (postfix mta), what is the best method for setting the images correctly and in the appropriate places. Meaning, sometimes they shift from where we originally placed them, and the entire framework of the newsletter is compromised. We have been using outlook to build up the newsletters before sending them, but perhaps there is a better method when it comes to using mailman. Is there a trick to this, or is the error on our end (which almost always seems the case) :) Thanks a ton! -Tyler -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org

Hmm. GoDaddy is the main one. Another is 1&1. I'll look into it there though, and thanks so much. Best, -Tyler On Wed, May 5, 2010 at 6:58 PM, Mark Sapiro wrote: > Ty Nelson wrote > > > >Perfect!

Re: [Mailman-Users] Mx Records and Mailmans use of a domain
Perfect! Thanks for letting me know those two options. I think my last question is how can I teach my MTA to relay non-Mailman-list mail to the hosting company's server? Is that something that is simple or should I contact the hosting company to inquire about that?

[Mailman-Users] Mx Records and Mailmans use of a domain
Hey geniuses, In the beginning I was initially told that a shortcut moethod of getting mailman to work with a domain was to just remove the domains mx records. This has worked. My question is, how can I make it so my domain can still have email working on the domain, as well as mailman? As of now, mailman is all the domain is used for. Probably a dumb question, but how should I setup my domains mx records so that the hosting company email still functions with the domain, and mailman can also use the domain?

Re: [Mailman-Users] Simple, yet over my head multiple domain problem
Mark, That solved it! Not only are you really smart, you're nice too. That always makes my day better. Thanks for taking the time to answer the question. That was so easy and simple to do-but somehow when I get inside mailman I have this horrible fear of breaking it. (I've done that a few times). Thanks again! -Ty On Wed, Apr 28, 2010 at 8:39 AM, Mark Sapiro wrote: > Ty Nelson wrote: > > >I don't know how to make it so I can have more than one domain on my > mailman > >install.

[Mailman-Users] Simple, yet over my head multiple domain problem
Greetings Geniuses... I have mailman 2.1.11 running with postfix, and it's absolutely great. I love it. The problem is...I'm going to be honest when I say I'm definitely below average intelligence with this sort of thing. I don't know how to make it so I can have more than one domain on my mailman install. I have all the domains pointing to the correct IP address, so the interface works on each domain. I can change the hostname in my main.cffile to whatever domain I want to work at that instant, and it works-but I don't know how I can have 5 domains that work at the same time. I can only get them to work one at a time. I understand that these files must be changed: main.cf mm_cfg.py (something involving virtual hosts) But I've looked everywhere on the internet and I can't find a step by step guide for (idiots) if you will on what I need to do to what file word for word. Basically, how can I make: domain1.info domain2.info domain3.info domain4.info domain5.info all work at the same time. I know this forum is for advanced issues in general, been on it for quite sometime. So I apologize for filling your inbox with such a silly question. I am so grateful for your assistance.
