private archiving problems
by deadgrrrl Feb. 14, 1999

Feb. 14, 1999

I just upgraded from b7 to b8. this problem existed in b7 but I never had time to examine it... first of all, is it okay to use the following apache srm.conf aliases for mailman instead of the one it asks for? Alias /archives/ /home/mailman/archives/public/ ScriptAlias /lists/ /home/mailman/cgi-bin/ (everything seems to work fine with that except the following) Second, if it -is- okay to do that. I'm having problems with the private archives. Public archiving works great, but when I click … [View More]

Strange Problem.
by Michael Quigley Feb. 13, 1999

Feb. 13, 1999

Hello.. I just recently converted our site over from Majordomo to Mailman. So far, everything is fantastic and everyone here loves it. However, I'm having a small problem. We have an admin account on one of our machines that runs a custom email generation application, unrelated to anything going on with mailman. The account that the application runs under is called 'mrxadmin'. The mrxadmin account has a .foward file which forwards email to 'webmaster(a)goingv.com', which is a mailman list. … [View More]For some strange reason I keep getting these messages back from my mail server whenever mail is delivered to 'mrxadmin' and .forward'ed to 'webmaster(a)goingv.com'. The mail does proceed to be distributed by the webmaster(a)goingv.com list and ends up at the correct recipients. -- Message Follows -- Received: from argyle (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by argyle.goingv.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id QAA03548 for <michael(a)goingv.com>; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 16:15:05 -0500 (EST) Received: from localhost (localhost) by argyle.goingv.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with internal id QAB03510; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 16:15:03 -0500 (EST) Date: Fri, 12 Feb 1999 16:15:03 -0500 (EST) From: Mail Delivery Subsystem <MAILER-DAEMON> Message-Id: <199902122115.QAB03510(a)argyle.goingv.com> To: webmaster-admin MIME-Version: 1.0 Subject: Returned mail: unknown mailer error 1 Auto-Submitted: auto-generated (failure) Content-Type: multipart/report; report-type=delivery-status; boundary="QAB03510.918854103/argyle.goingv.com" Content-Length: 3746 Parts/attachments: 1 Shown 9 lines Text 2 Shown 353 bytes Message 3 Shown 2.8 KB Message, "Output from "cron" command" 3.1 Shown 104 lines Text ---------------------------------------- The original message was received at Fri, 12 Feb 1999 16:15:03 -0500 (EST) from www.pgdc.net [208.138.186.30] ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- "|/d0/mailman/mail/wrapper post webmaster" (expanded from: webmaster(a)goingv.com) ----- Transcript of session follows ----- 554 "|/d0/mailman/mail/wrapper post webmaster"... unknown mailer error 1 [ Part 2: "Included Message" ] Reporting-MTA: dns; argyle.goingv.com Received-From-MTA: DNS; www.pgdc.net Arrival-Date: Fri, 12 Feb 1999 16:15:03 -0500 (EST) Final-Recipient: RFC822; <mrxadmin@argyle> X-Actual-Recipient: RFC822; |/d0/mailman/mail/wrapper post webmaster(a)argyle.goingv.com Action: failed Status: 5.0.0 Last-Attempt-Date: Fri, 12 Feb 1999 16:15:03 -0500 (EST) [ Part 3: "Included Message" ] Date: Fri, 12 Feb 1999 16:15:02 -0500 From: MRx Administrator <mrxadmin(a)argyle.goingv.com> To: mrxadmin(a)argyle.goingv.com Subject: Output from "cron" command [remaining original message output snipped] Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

NameError : recipients

Thanks to Harald, I figured out my WANTED vs GOT and ended up letting mailman run with the GID it GOT and that seems to be much closer to being happy. However, now, whenever I post, I get the following in the error log: Feb 10 14:48:56 1999 post: Traceback (innermost last): post: File "/usr/people/mailman/scripts/post", line 65, in ? post: current_list.Post(msg) post: File "/usr/people/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py", line 1143, in Post post: recipients.remove(members) post: … [View More]

importing existing archives
by James Strickland Feb. 11, 1999

Feb. 11, 1999

Hi. I've installed Mailman 1.0b7 and am pleased as punch (especially since it's written in Python, the best interpreted language ever :-) ) but I don't see how to import existing mail into an archive. I looked for documentation on this, I looked around the source a tiny bit, I looked at the crontab, I searched the archives for mailman-users, and I just don't see it. Presumably it's relatively simple - plunk down a mailbox file and run the indexing command. Does anyone know the magic … [View More]
