removing archives?
by Matt Singerman Jan. 26, 2001

Jan. 26, 2001

Hallo all, I am trying to remove a list's archives, but I am having a hard time figuring out how. I trying moving the listname.mbox file to listname.mbox.OLD, and then touching a new listnamee.mbox. I set permissions/ownership to match the old file, then ran arch: ./arch listname /usr/mailman/archives/private/listname.mbox/listname.mbox However, this did not work. Am I just doing this completely wrong? What is the proper way to delete archives? PS - I am not on this mailing list, so … [View More]

Mailman + Qmail not working
by Casey Allen Shobe Jan. 26, 2001

Jan. 26, 2001

I'm having strange problems with Mailman, because I don't know what I'm doing. Help would be *greatly* appreciated. I can look at the mailing list via the web, so it's interfacing with Apache correctly. When I created a list using the command line, I even got a confirmation email. However, I can't sign any other email accounts up via the web, no response is ever received. I tried signing up via email, or sending a post to the list, and get a "no such user" reply back from qmail. The … [View More]

mailman-2.0.1: Quoted text in the archive.
by Thomas Roessler Jan. 26, 2001

Jan. 26, 2001

The attached simple patch seems to fix the display of quoted text in the web version of the list archives. Of course, setting SHOWBR is mostly a matter of taste. However, making the addition fo <br>'s in the quoted text depend on whether or not SHOWHTML is set looks a bit fishy to me. WK: You may wish to re-create your HTML archives. ;-) -- Thomas Roessler <roessler(a)does-not-exist.org>

accessing admin pages: hit and miss
by Christopher Kolar Jan. 25, 2001

Jan. 25, 2001

Hi everyone. We are running 2.01 (upgraded from 1.0) under DEC True64 4.0F. Most of the lists are working just fine, but there has been some weirdness with a recently created batch. When we access /mailman/admin to work on the lists we are able to get into some, but others the request times out before we get the login screen. Among the five lists in question this error seems to be at random, but we seem to have access for a half day, then the ones that work and don't work seem to … [View More]
