Getting the raw list of users
by Tom Limoncelli March 23, 2000

March 23, 2000

The people that run mailing lists on my servers would like to be able to get at a raw list of the email addresses. (i.e. as a .txt file, instead of .html). Preferably using a URL that they can "wget" and pipe to other processing scripts. They do not have logins on the server itself. Is there such a URL? Thanks in advance, --tal

Feature questions
by Derek Simkowiak March 23, 2000

March 23, 2000

Hello, I am new to MailMan, and have a couple of quick feature questions. First, it is possible to set up a mailing list that does *not* require a password for its subscribers? Second, I currently use Majordomo and a customer had a feature request: He has several mailing lists (6 of them). Many of the people subscribed to the first three are also subscribed to the last three. If he has an important announcement that needs to go to all the subscribers of all the lists, he mails the … [View More]

Held mail - "fixed"
by Robert Davidson March 23, 2000

March 23, 2000

Hi all. I fixed the mail holding problem I was having in Message.py, it was in the GetSender() part from memory. It preferred to use the "Sender:" field in a message, then failing that, it would use "From:" and failing that it would use "unixfrom:" or something like that.. It's the first time I've looked at Python code (I'm a C programmer) must say I like python :) I simply changed it's preferences around, so it's now From, Sender, unixfrom. Any problems with this? The other thing which I … [View More]

Held mail
by Robert Davidson March 23, 2000

March 23, 2000

Hi Everyone. We've set up Mailman on one of our servers (version 1.1) using Exim as the mail server. Most people can mail through fine, but a few cant, me being one of them. The problem is that Mailman seems to think I'm not subscribed, although I am. My username on the PC is "puttputt", the email account I am sending from is "pathetic(a)mail.ebbs.com.au". The mail client is Netscape Comm 4.61, the PC is also on the local network, but the same problem occurs when I'm at home (same email … [View More]

interesting twist on "unknown mailer error 2"
by Jean Marie Diaz March 23, 2000

March 23, 2000

I am attempting to install 2.0 beta 1 on an Alpha running Digital Unix 4.0D. This machine is currently serving a number of lists with majordomo and sendmail. It doesn't use smrsh. The message in syslog is: Mar 22 15:29:16 av-ops4 Mailman mail-wrapper: Failure to exec script. WANTED gid d, GOT gid d. (Reconfigure to take d?) gid 'd', huh? I tried running (as the mailman user) python -c'import os; print os.getgid()'. The result was 60, which is what I fed to --with-mail-gid. Any … [View More]
