I can't get to the pending request page for a mailing list.
(My web clients just say "waiting for response" and finally give up.)
I think it is because there are too many pending requests after some
problems. (config.db is almost 10MB.)
How can I do this some other way?
How do I edit the html for the main /mailman/listinfo url that shows the
lists of lists. I tried editing /mailman/templates/listinfo.html but
nothing happened.
Thanks,
Matt
I've noticed that lately replying to subscription confirmations doesn't
work. I know that it worked just fine using mailman 1.1, and I'm sure that
it's broken in 2.0 beta 5. I don't have any of the earlier betas still
running, so I can't test those. Has this code changed significantly since
1.1? Can we get it working again? The client that I've been having
problems with is Outlook 2000 (yeah, I know). Thanks,
Greg
I has anyone seen this error message before? I try to connect to the
URL admin
to change some configs but this keeps coming up. I've tried restarting
the server
but nothing. Is there anything I can do other than upgrade at this
point? Thanks

There's no facility to auto-bounce, but you can have posts matching
certain header fields held for moderation (see Privacy options in
your list config) and of course you can insert a grep/formail recipe
in front of the list to detect verboten words and insert a header to
make the Privacy options catch the post.

Is there any way to make it easier for members to unsubscribe.
In particular, is there a way to turn off requiring a password to
unsubscribe ??
Thanks.
So, after our switch off majordomo, I've received feedback from users.
First, digest users complained that a lot of extra headers were
making it tough to see the separation between messages. I also
personally noticed that a -lot- of bandwidth is wasted by not
stripping the footer of each message from the digest version(so the
digest ends up with 20+ copies of the list's footer, with the list
name and all.)
Our list ballooned in bandwidth requirements when we went to mailman,
and we're limited to an ISDN line. Alternatives like handing mail
off to another server for expansion+delivery are not options at the
moment; neither is a faster line(DSL is not available yet in the area
where the server is.)
I'd also like to know if there is a way to strip a lot of unnecessary
headers, to save bandwidth and to make posts easier to read. Mainly,
I don't see why we need listers(and especially digest users) to get
much more than from, subject, to/cc, date, and reply-to if it's
defined by the sender.
Now, granted, there are strange setups, and it probably isn't
compliant with some RFC thus-and-such to just hose headers, so it
could be a non-default feature.
However, I think that stripping each message of the mailman-addred
footer -before- it is put in the digest would be great(just as how
this is done with Pipermail archiving.) I would settle for this
alone...
Make sense?
I've considered some kind of pre-processor program/script that takes
a message and does stuff like:
-remove unneeded headers
-remove MIME/attachments
-remove HMTL
I'd guess that it's probably been done before, but a quick(and I do
mean quick) search did not find anything.

PS:I should mention that people commented to me that they like the
options/preferences, the archives, and

Hi,
I'm trying to configure my mailling list through the administrative
authentication web page and receive the following error:

Can someone please tell me if it is possible to bounce messages which
contain certain keywords?
I recently switched from Majordomo to Mailman
and cannot see how this is done.
