mail sent to "list-request(a)listhost.dom" (the request address for the list) with a Subject or Body containing "subscribe <password> address=<address>" will subscribe that address with that password. Anyone can send that mail. If confirmation is turned on, the actual <address> will get the confirmation email, and need to reply to it before the subscription is processed. You can get this information by sending "help" to the request address. > Let me add just a bit of information. > > I have a list owner who does not have access to add_members > who wants to be able to add members via email.

Automated addition of users to a "mailman" maintained mailing list
by Morris Strongson 30 Mar '00

30 Mar '00

I am the administrator of a mailing list that had been run under "listproc", and is now running under "mailman" It allowed addition of users from an "adduser" script that added users to the list via an email message, thus allowing automation of the process. Can this be done under "mailman"? Thanks for your help. -- ************************************************************************** Morris Strongson, RHIC, USAtlas Projects Telephone: (631)344-4192 Information Technology Division (fka CCD) Facsimile: (631)344-7688 Brookhaven National Laboratory Internet: mms(a)bnl.gov Building 515, Upton, NY 11973-5000 WWW: http://www.ccd.bnl.gov/ **************************************************************************

Let me add just a bit of information. I have a list owner who does not have access to add_members who wants to be able to add members via email. This list owner is not a mailman admin. > -----Original Message----- > > Is there a way for a list owner to subscribe users via email? > Can't seem to find it in the documentation.

Digest problems: numbers are not incremental
by Aaron La Mar 30 Mar '00

30 Mar '00

OK, I'll try this request for help again, but provide more info this time... The environment: Mailman 1.1, FreeBSD 3.1, Python 1.5.1, Apache 1.3.6, PHP 3.0.10 As you can see from the digest that follows, the message numbers on several of my digests are not incrementing as they should. Every message is showing up as message number 1 (rather than 1, 2, 3, etc..). I thought this was happening to all of my digested lists, but now I see that it is only happening to a few, but consistently.

Full names on subscribers
by Jens Larsson 30 Mar '00

30 Mar '00

Hi! I have resently installed Mailman and so far I am very pleased. But there is one feature that I miss. In most mailing list softwares you can subscribe with a mail address AND your full name. When a list member reviews the subscribers list they see the real names as well as the sometimes cryptic mail addresses. Is this possible in Mailman? /jens
