mailman 1.0 problems
by Trevor Clarke Sept. 9, 1999

Sept. 9, 1999

I have been running an older beta version of mailman(don't remember the exact version offhand)on a DECstation running NetBSD. Recently, we upgraded that machine to an Alpha running Digital UNIX. I grabbed mailman 1.0 and compiled and installed it. I ran make update and can get to the mailing list options and archives via the web. If I create a new list I get the Welcome mail(sent to the admin). However, when I post a message, I get an error. Sendmail says that the mail was recieved and | /var/… [View More]

Mailman, exim and QP encoding
by Pekko Piirola Sept. 8, 1999

Sept. 8, 1999

Hi! I'm trying to use mailman with exim for a finnish speaking mail list. The problem is that mailman (or is it pipermail?) archives QP encoded messages without decoding them first. So the archives are almost useless because no browser can decode QP. How could I transform archives I already have to standard ISO-8859-1, and what steps I need to take to hook some filter to mailman/pipermail for decoding new mails? Or does mailman already have some option for Quoted Printable encoded mail? (I'… [View More]

What steps are necessary to create a readonly list where only the admin has posting privelages? I'd like to create a announcement style list and do not want users to post to the list. Also is there an option to not allow users from seeing who is on the list? Thanks Brad

approval of subscription
by Michelle Craft Sept. 8, 1999

Sept. 8, 1999

I've just installed Mailman 1.0. Everything seems to work aside from the approval of subscription requests. I was trying to test out the 'confirm+approval' setting for a list, and it doesn't seem to work. This is what I did: 1) I try to subscribe from address craft(a)biostat.wisc.edu (or where else). 2) Mailman emails me asking for confirmation and I reply. 3) My reply is correctly sent to the list master and logged in $prefix/logs/subscribe as pending. 4) When the list master (me) … [View More]

Question about moving lists from one machine to another
by Bill Bradford Sept. 7, 1999

Sept. 7, 1999

Anybody know of a quick and easy way to move four or five lists (complete with archives, subscribe lists, etc) from one machine to another? I'm upgrading sunhelp.org to an UltraSPARC box, and would like to compile the latest/greatest versions of everything instead of just tarballing it up and moving it over.. however, in this case, the version of mailman isnt changing. I just need to move the lists. Suggestions? Bill -- Bill Bradford * mrbill(a)sunhelp.org * http://www.sunhelp.org ------… [View More]
