Cron jobs
by Robert Brandtjen March 1, 2001

March 1, 2001

I just installed Mailman yesterday, as I watch my system log, I see it running a cron job every 2minutes or more! is that really necessary? Or is there some way to scale that back a lil bit? TIA, Rob -- Web Site Creation and Hosting Services Hostmaster(a)prometheusmedia.com www.prometheusmedia.com

socket.error
by Rick Whitmore March 1, 2001

March 1, 2001

Every few weeks, Mailman seems to hang, and the smtp-failures log indicates: TrySMTPDelivery: socket.error / host not found (deferred) and tells me to restart my MTA. This usually works, but it's happening with more frequency. The system is: RedHat 6.2 Mailman 1.1 Exim 3.13 Any advice is appreciated.

preventing a subscriber from posting
by David Herren March 1, 2001

March 1, 2001

I am aware that one can enter the address of a subscriber into one of hte fields in the Privacy section of the admin tools, but I would love to see this feature be a little easier to access. Wouldn't it be possible to add another check box to the membership management area--something like "Posting Allowed" which could be deselected for particular "read only" users? /david -- david herren | In an Internet without doors, shoreham, vt | who needs Windows or Gates?

I 've installed mailman-2.0beta5-3.i386.rpm in my Red hat 6.2 with apache-1.3.14-2.6.2 and when i try to admin 1 of my list, the server respond me : Mailman CGI error!!! The expected gid of the Mailman CGI wrapper did not match the gid as set by the Web server. The most likely cause is that Mailman was configured and installed incorrectly. Please read the INSTALL instructions again, paying close attention to the --with-cgi-gid configure option. This entry is being stored in your syslog: … [View More]

by Andreas Hasenack March 1, 2001

March 1, 2001

Ok, I saw that this feature is on the current wishlist, but has somebody created some workaround for now? I want to ban a specific user from talking, subscribing, etc. The list is moderated, so of course I can stop his postings, and I get notified of all subscriptions, but I would like to even stop him from subscribing. Yes, he can change his email, etc. Whatever. Has someone implemented something, even if ugly :), for this? Perhaps another wrapper, let the alias expand to that, check the … [View More]

Moving List
by The BOFH March 1, 2001

March 1, 2001

Is there a FAQ or a README or some other documentation which details the steps to move a list from one machine to another? I'm replacing a machine, and I don't know if I need to simply gzip up the list directories and move them, or if there are other steps involved. Thanks, SWS
