List disappeared after reboot
by Gaved Adriano Jan. 20, 2000

Jan. 20, 2000

Hi all I had to reboot my Linux (Mandrake 6.0 - very similar to RH6.0) without being able to sync. Afterwards when I tried to access to http://myserver/mailman/listinfo/mylist it gives "List mylist not found", where mylist worked fine before my unfortunate reboot. Further, messages cannot be exchanged anymore. Looking into mailman directory tree I find /usr/local/mailman/archives/public/mylist /usr/local/mailman/lists/mylist with the right stuff in. How can I get mylist up and running again? … [View More]

Huge lists of stuff for moderation...
by Nigel Metheringham Jan. 20, 2000

Jan. 20, 2000

Some clueless idiot attempted to gateway one of my mailing lists into a newgroup over night. I have some rather large number (of the order of a thousand) messages waiting to be dealt with all from one envelope sender. So far its taken close on 15 minutes for netscape to load the list admin page, and it hasn't finished yet. I then have the joy of working my way through several hundred messages and rejecting them all. This raises a number of issues:- 1. The current moderation method … [View More]

Re: [Mailman-Users] Appeal for help using "withlist"

Chris, That fixed my problem - it was a shame I couldn't find that recipe when searching the archives earlier :-( Any chance that recipe could be added (with lots of caveats etc) to the FAQ?

Finding disabled users
by Dan Mick Jan. 19, 2000

Jan. 19, 2000

No, not users who have some sort of physical problem: I mean those who the list (probably) has set the "disabled" option for. I asked for a hack to find them; no one responded, so I got dangerous and hacked up withlist to make a command. Here it is. I use it with a shell script to send them all a message reminding them they're disabled (since, if they were disabled by having a full inbox, they may never have seen the message). #!/usr/bin/python """List disabled members of a mailing list … [View More]
