Im in need of a portuguese translation of Mailman, where do I get it? If it doesn't exist yet, what are the guidelines to do it, so it can be included in future releases? Yours, Paulo Schreiner

WebArchives with replies from the archives under MHonArc
by J C Lawrence July 4, 2000

July 4, 2000

A while back I referred to a project I was working on of getting MHonArc and PHP4/PHPLib to produce web archives for mailing lists that support replying to the archived messages with proper quoting, In-Reply-To/References headers and all the rest, right there from the web page. v1.0 is now up and can be seen at the pages under: http://www.kanga.nu/archives/ Note that some list archives support replying, and some don't (simple per-list configuration). eg: http://www.kanga.nu/archives/… [View More]

Hello list. I have recently installed Mailman-2.0beta3, and am trying to create my first list to verify the installation. I'm getting errors (shown below this explanation). The box is running slackware linux, using qmail as the MTA, and Python-1.5.2. Any suggestions would be much-appreciated. The documentation and FAQ didn't seem to cover anything like this.

RE: [Mailman-Users] MHonArc question
by Joseph Gray July 3, 2000

Ok, two people have asked so far. Here is how I have MHonArc setup. To start, edit your "mm_cfg.py" file to define the external archiver (yes, both lines are the same command). I got the "mkdir" idea from someone else's posting. It didn't work w/o it: PUBLIC_EXTERNAL_ARCHIVER = """ mkdir -p /home/mailman/archives/private/%(listname)s;/usr/local/bin/mhonarc -add -outdir /home/mailman/archives/private/%(listname)s -idxfname index.html -nosaveresources -rcfile /home/mailman/mhonarc.mrc """ … [View More]PRIVATE_EXTERNAL_ARCHIVER = """ mkdir -p /home/mailman/archives/private/%(listname)s;/usr/local/bin/mhonarc -add -outdir /home/mailman/archives/private/%(listname)s -idxfname index.html -nosaveresources -rcfile /home/mailman/mhonarc.mrc """ You will note from the above that "-rcfile" defines the location of the MHonArc resource file. Here is mine:    <UMASK> 022 </UMASK>  <MULTIPG> <IDXSIZE> 20 </IDXSIZE>  <Sort>  <FieldOrder> to from date reply-to </FieldOrder>  <TITLE> Mailing List Archive (by Date) </TITLE>  <TTITLE> Mailing List Archive (Threaded) </TTITLE>  <LiTemplate> <LI><STRONG>$SUBJECT$</STRONG>, <EM>$YYYYMMDD$, $FROMNAME$</EM> </LI> </LiTemplate>  <MIMEargs> text/plain;maxwidth=80 </MIMEargs> For an explaination of these settings, read the MHonArc documentation on Resources. They are explained fairly well. You just have to figure out which ones you want to change. Note that I could have put the "idxfname" and "nosaveresources" options in the resource file instead of in the command line. Most resources are this way. [View Less]

The easy way is to select an appropriate directory based on the current month (use `date`) in your wrapper script and thus place the archived messages (and … [View More]

MHonArc question
by Joseph Gray July 3, 2000

July 3, 2000

I finally have MHonArc running as the external archiver. However, there is one feature of the Mailman internal archiver that I can't seem to duplicate with MHonArc. How do I make MHonArc generate the _monthly_ archives? The best I seem to be able to do is to have MHonArc break up the entire archive into pages of a certain size. This works, but isn't as good as breaking up into months. Any suggestions? BTW, If anyone likes, I can post my MHonArc configuration to the list. I found previous … [View More]
