Mailman 3 February 2000 - Mailman-Users

Mhonarc + Mailman (was external archiver urls)
by Scott Russell Feb. 25, 2000

Feb. 25, 2000

Rick - Good question. I'm replacing the previous admin so honestly I'm not quite sure. The kicker is the admin I replaced didn't set it up either! He had yet another admin set it up. From the mailing list side, which is right this moment still majordomo, emails sent to 'archive(a)system.name.com' are automatically archived. This is for three different lists. Mhonarc takes care of sorting them out (based on the [listname] in subject) and sticking them into the correct web archive. I'll ask … [View More]

Seems that when a message is sent from Outlook (HTML Mail format) the default footer doesn't get attached.... Is there something special that I need to set?

External Archivers and listinfo page archive url
by Scott Russell Feb. 24, 2000

Feb. 24, 2000

All - In my conifg I use an email address to a second system that keeps the Monarch web archive of the lists. So any message sent to archiver(a)monarch.ibm.com will end up being added to the appropriate archive. The listinfo page has an url to the archive location which points to the pipermail archives on the local system. Is there a setting that I can use to redirect this url or will I have to change it on the template html manually? -- Regards, Scott Russell (scottrus(a)raleigh.ibm.com) … [View More]

Sorry, never had that kind of trouble with my Mailman 1.1 installation. Do the aliases call upon smrsh directly? I don't quite recall, but I don't believe so. -- Matthias Andree Hi!

Confiuration Help
by Roy Pitchford Feb. 24, 2000

Feb. 24, 2000

I have installed mailman 1.0 on a Linux 6.1 system. Everything seems to work except the subscription confirmation replies bounce. I don't see an entry in /etc/aliases for the test-request user. Should something have been created here for the group Test? What is the mechanism to map these messages to the mailman program? Any help is appreciated. Roy

Feb. 23, 2000

Heyas all, I'm having problems getting Mailman up and running. All mail that is sent to my mailing list is bouncing back with "unknown mailer error 2". I think the aliases are having problems expanding. Problems are occuring on a Linux box, sendmail is 8.9.3, python is 1.5.2, mailman is current release. I will refer to the list as 'mylist'. Mail going to mylist(a)myhost.com is bouncing to mylist-admin(a)myhost.com with mailer error 2. Mail fails sending to mylist-admin(a)myhost.com with … [View More]

Translating Mailman
by Alexandre Denes dos Santos Feb. 23, 2000

Feb. 23, 2000

Hi there, I want to translate all the pages and messages of Mailman to Portuguese. I think that translating the files in directory templates should work, but I do not know how to do with the lists that are already created. Does anyone know how to do it? Thanks in advance. Denes
