Hello, I've installed and followed all the instructions on the INSTALL file. I added some instruction lines on /etc/aliases to enable a "test" mailing list. # test: "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper post test" test-admin: "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper mailowner test" test-request: "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper mailcmd test" owner-test: test-admin test-owner: test-admin # I'm running sendmail on a Linux (Red Hat) 2.3.2 #4 SMP … [View More]

sender/envelope addresses esp with mailed commands
by Nigel Metheringham July 19, 1999

July 19, 1999

I tried experimenting with the mail command interface to MailMan with total lack of success until I discovered some oddities regarding the detection of sender addresses. I am using Mailman 1.0rc3 (same result with 1.0rc2). I have the default zero setting for USE_ENVELOPE_SENDER. The MUA I am using on the test account is Netscape running on Linux connecting through an ISP by POP/SMTP. Netscape appears to add a "Sender: nigel" header - ie my unqualified user name, which is not … [View More]

os.error: (2, 'No such file or directory')
by Mariella Di Giacomo July 19, 1999

July 19, 1999

Hello, I've installed the mailman-1.0rc3 and as suggested on the INSTALL file I'm running the ~/bin/check_perms script. Unfortunately at a certain point the script looks for checking perms on /home/mailman/data/adm.pw and this file doesn't exist and I get os.error: (2, 'No such file or directory') Is data/adm.pw compulsory ? If yes, where can I get it ? What does it contain ? Thanks Mariella ____________________________________________________________________ … [View More]

masquerading?
by Ron Jarrell July 19, 1999

July 19, 1999

I'm using mailman with lists on virtual hosts... The web and inbound work fine. But when you set the hostname in the web page, isn't that support to masquerade outbound, or did I misunderstand it's use? All my lists are coming from listname@realhostname... I could swear this worked when I tested it.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Timezone problem

[don't quite have the bits to build a patch right now...] If you find the line near the bottom of Message.py which has:- def SetDate(self, date=time.ctime(time.time())): and modify it to something like:- def SetDate(self, date=time.strftime("%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S %z", time.localtime(time.time()))): [which has probably wrapped on mail send :-( ] BTW the %z might be a GNU library special - not sure what other strftimes have. Also if you use gmtime rather than localtime you may … [View More]

internationalization
by Ulrich Wisser July 19, 1999

July 19, 1999

Hello, I installed mailman succesfully on my Linux system. I got my mailinglist technically working but now comes the hard part. All pages must be in the sites layout and everything must be in German. I found the templates which can easily be translated but I didn't get a clue on how to make any <MM-Tag> appear in German. Did anybody already "port" mailman to German language? Thanks Ulli -- ----------------- Die Website Effizienzer ------------------ luna-park Bravo … [View More]

Timezone problem
by Brian Knotts July 19, 1999

July 19, 1999

I have mailman up and running for the most part, but am bothered by one little problem. I thought maybe it was unique to me, until I noticed the same problem after subscribing to the mailman-users mailing list. The problem is the Date: header. It seems to be incorrect in mail that is sent out by Mailman. Here is the Date: header I received in the 'Welcome to "Mailman-Users"' mail: Date: Mon Jul 19 11:45:43 1999 No time zone is specified, so my mailer (XFMail) assumes UTC, and sorts it … [View More]
