bin/arch and large mbox
by Jon Parise 23 May '02

23 May '02

I'm in the process of integrating a large set of old ezmlm archives with my existing Mailman archives. After converting the ezmlm archives to mbox format, I've been merging the archives together into a single listname.mbox file and then running bin/arch to rebuild the indexes. Everything has been going well until I hit a large mbox archive (~11MB). bin/arch only gets through the first 200 or so messages before it decides to finish up. This leaves me with only three weeks of archive indexes (from the year 2000, at that). The bin/arch usage text alludes to bin/arch having issues with large mbox'es, and it seems as though I'm experiencing one of them. =) Something like "bin/arch -s 0 -e 500 listname" doesn't seem to help. Any thoughts on how to proceed? -- Jon Parise (jon(a)csh.rit.edu) . Information Technology (2001) http://www.csh.rit.edu/~jon/ : Computer Science House Member

Python and Mailman problem
by Kory Wheatley 23 May '02

23 May '02

Critical trying to run Python 2.1 on my production mailman 2.0.11 Univeristy Mailing Lists. I had to revert back to Python1.5.2 Does Python 2.1 work with Mailman 2.0.11. Details & and error messages below. Does anyone know the solution of this problem below? I've install mailman 2.0.11 on Red Hat 7.2 and it was working fine until I upgrade to Python 2.1. Once I upgraded to this version everything seemed fine for 5 hours. I was able to receive messages from my mailing lists at our University. The Web Interface administrator options for the lists all worked fine. Then messages started piling in "qfiles" and it would not send anymore messages out. I moved them out of the queue and started moving them back in one at a time and then again the messages seemed to be sent properly, but then they started piling back up in the qfiles directory again . Here is the errors I received in the "error" logfile. I'm not totally efficient on Python yet, so I would like some help I would appreciate it.

It appears that a couple of messages were boucing between the mailman request addresses and a Majordomo server, with more error transcript being added to the message on each bounce. This then appeared to completely block the qrunner. Removing the 2 huge messages from the qfiles directory fixed it. Broken message qfiles attached. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Barry Warsaw (bwarsaw) Date: 2002-05-21 16:47 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=12800 Heh, I think this is a general problem when you get two email robots talking to each other! In MM2.1cvs the robot will refuse to respond to a message marked Precedence: bulk|junk|list -- but it looks like that wouldn't have even helped in this case (since the Majordomo server isnt' setting that header ;/ ) The only other solution I can think of is to add a config variable which is a blacklist of known addresses (regexps) that Mailman should not respond too. You'd still get into the robot infloop the first time, but at least you'd have a hope of avoiding subsequent replybot storms for the same address. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nigel Metheringham (nigel) Date: 2002-05-21 08:03 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=31288 and other file ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100103&aid=558633&group_id…

A few weeks later, I changed my mind and set this to "No". However, whenever someone tries to post to the list, I still receive a message from Mailman, saying that the posting requires approval (the subject line says "Posting to a restricted list by sender requires approval"). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100103&aid=559558&group_id…

[ mailman-Patches-444884 ] Integration of Mailman & htdig for archi

Patches item #444884, was opened at 2001-07-26 18:27 You can respond by visiting: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=300103&aid=444884&group_id… Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Richard Barrett (ppsys) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Integration of Mailman & htdig for archi Initial Comment: This patch is applicable to Mailman 2.0.6 release that has had search enhancement patch 444879 patch installed - if your Defaults.py has the ARCHIVE_INDEXING_ENABLE and ARCHIVE_INDEXING_DISABLE in it then you've got that patch. It replaces earlier patches 401670 and 402423 and is mainly to correct some problems arising from fixes introduced into Mailman by bug fix releases since the 402423 patch. This patch integrates htdig with Mailman and provides: 1. per list search facility with a search form on the list's TOC page. 2. maintenance of privacy of private archives which requires the user to establish their credentials via the normal private archive access before any access via htdig is allowed. 3. a common base URL for both public and private archive access via htsearch results so that htdig indices are unaffected by changingan archive from private to public and vice versa. All access to archives via htdig is controlled by a new wrapped cgi- bin script called htdig.py. 4. a new cron activated script and extra crontab entry which runs htdig regularly to maintain the per list search indices. 5. automatic creation, deletion and maintenance of htdig configuration files and such. Beyond installing htdig and telling Mailman where it is via mm_cfg you do not have to do any other setup. Well not quite you do have to set up a single per installation symlink to allow htdig to find the automatically generated per list htdig configuration files. You probably want to run this patch as follows: cd <mailman 2.0.6 untarred and unzipped directory> patch -p1 < <this patch file> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Richard Barrett (ppsys) Date: 2002-05-23 09:59 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=75166 htdig-2.0.11-0.1.patch is a revised version of the patch that is compatible with MM 2.0.11 This version removes an incompatibility with Python 2.2 which caused warning messages to be generated when any of the family cron/nightly_htdig scripts were run.

This patch should improve the quality of search results returned by search engines such as htdig (http://www.htdig.org) where the seach engine's index builder responds to strings embedded in the html pages that are the subject of the indexing. The changes in this patch: 1. allow strings for enabling and disabling indexing to be defined in mm_cfg.py. 2. embeds those strings in the pages generated as the html version of a list's archive. By default nothing in the html changes. To get the desired effect, you must define ARCHIVE_INDEXING_ENABLE and ARCHIVE_INDEXING_DISABLE in mm_cfg.py You probably want to run this patch as follows: cd <mailman 2.0.6 untarred and unzipped directory> patch -p1 < <this patch file> See also the associated patch for integrating the htdig search software with mailman's internal archiver ouput. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Richard Barrett (ppsys) Date: 2002-05-23 09:50 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=75166 indexing-2.0.11-0.1.patch is a revised version of the patch that is compatible with MM 2.0.11 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Richard Barrett (ppsys) Date: 2002-04-19 10:53 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=75166 indexing-2.0.9-0.1.patch should apply without problems to MM 2.0.10 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Richard Barrett (ppsys) Date: 2002-04-08 17:43 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=75166 indexing-2.0.9-0.1.patch is a revised version of the patch that is compatible with MM 2.0.9 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Richard Barrett (ppsys) Date: 2002-03-06 16:14 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=75166 indexing-2.1cvs-20020306.patch is a revised version of the patch that is compatible with the code published in mailman CVS on sourceforge as 12:30 GMT 6 Mar 2002.

[ mailman-Bugs-559417 ] "arch" utility spews output

Would it be possible to have a more sensible status report so that people aren't confused when they rebuild a large archive? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100103&aid=559417&group_id…

[ mailman-Bugs-558909 ] Auto-responsder doesn't send response.

Bugs item #558909, was opened at 2002-05-21 18:43 You can respond by visiting: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100103&aid=558909&group_id… Category: mail delivery Group: 2.1 beta >Status: Closed >Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Submitted By: Donal Hunt (redgiant) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Auto-responsder doesn't send response. Initial Comment: Auto-response mail never gets sent on -admin and -owner addresses. Set the autorespond_admin and autorespond_admin_text properties on the auto-responder page of the admin page for the list. Sending mail to either <listname>-admin@host or <listname>-owner@host results in the admin receiving the email but no auto-response is sent to the sender. Found on Mailman CVS (May 9th). Up to my eyes at present so haven't got a chance to dig deeper yet. Will do so middle of next week if needed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Barry Warsaw (bwarsaw) Date: 2002-05-22 19:51 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=12800 Fixed in cvs. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100103&aid=558909&group_id…

Do the tests I outlined and it will reveal how your MTA handles unqualified and fully qualified From: headers. -- J C Lawrence ---------(*) Satan, oscillate my metallic sonatas. claw(a)kanga.nu He lived as a devil, eh? http://www.kanga.nu/~claw/ Evil is a name of a foeman, as I live.
