delivery algorithm does not fit for me
by Dringo Bela July 12, 1999

July 12, 1999

Hi, the delivery algorithm (scripts/deliver) puts members from the same domain ( xyz.com) together and sends them as one job to the MTA. It does not matter that these members are from different subdomain (abc.xyz.com, def.xyz.com...). It's not good for me, because all of the subdomains have different mail server. I have 250 members from the same domain, but most of them from different subdomain. In this way the communication terrible slow. When i make it different way (i hacked the code) the … [View More]

what is the difference digest or nondigest
by Patrick Wagner July 9, 1999

July 9, 1999

Thanks. I missed that completely. I was wondering what is the exact difference between digest and non-digest mode. I want to send a newsletter to my subscribers. But I don't want anyone to have access to post to the list. I know I can set it to prevent anyone accept a certain user to post but what if someone just sets up their e-mail to send a message from the webmaster(a)rapidtraffic.com to the list. webmaster(a)rapidtraffic.com being the only user allowed to post to the list. Will there … [View More]

confirmation e-mail problem
by Patrick Wagner July 9, 1999

July 9, 1999

I have mailman setup properly. But when I go to sign someone up the user gets a confirmation e-mail that goes to newsletter-request(a)rapidtraffic.com (newsletter is the name of the list.) The message bounces back because that address doesn't exist. Do I create it manually or should the program? I need to resolve and get this working today. Thanks for your help. Patrick Wagner

It sounds like you either a) didn't add the aliases to your MTA's config file or b) didn't let your MTA know you updated your aliases. For sendmail, this is usually adding them … [View More]

Performance problems and MailMan
by J C Lawrence July 9, 1999

July 9, 1999

I believe I've found out how to reliably reproduce the performance problemsI've noticed here at VA and at Kanga.Nu, and which Barry and another (forget name, sorry) have observed as well: 1) Create a moderated list. 2) Subscribe 200 addresses to the list (can be bogus addresses but the local MTA must accept them) 3) Post at least 30 messages of an average of at least 2K size to the list. 4) Go to the moderation page, approve every message, and hit submit. 5) Watch your system … [View More]
