I know this is possible, but I cannot find any docs on how to do it. I know the newserver IP/name … [View More]

messages pending approval
by Andreas Freyvogel June 28, 2001

June 28, 2001

Greetings all, I am just new with Mailman, so please bear with me. My question is this: if someone is sending a message that requires approval, where is it set that the administrator of that list will get an email (immediately preferably) telling him/her that it is waiting for their approval/denial? I hope you understand, and thanks in advance for any assistance. -Andreas

by Yanuar Nugroho June 28, 2001

Hi, How is the principle of archiving in Mailman? Is it related to storing and retrieving data when the archives are accessed thru the website? Can mailman take a particular message in the archive and stick it to new message to be distributed? Yanuar
