RE: [Mailman-Users] python 2.0 -> 2.2 upgrade?
by Roedel, Mark 04 Nov '02

The Changelog indicates that 2.0.9 included "some additional Python 2.2 compatibility fixes." Given that, I'd consider updating your Mailman at least to that point (if not all the way to the current 2.0.x release) before attempting the Python upgrade. --- Mark Roedel | "Blessed is he who has learned to laugh Systems Programmer | at himself, for he shall never cease LeTourneau University | to be entertained."

Help with Mac OS X Server (Jaguar) and Mailman?
by Stephanie Mitchell 04 Nov '02

04 Nov '02

Hello all: Hope you can help with this. I'm a little lost, and his may not even be a Mailman problem, but here goes. I have Mac OS X 10.2 (Jaguar) Server running AppleMailServer (for regular mail) and sendmail (for Mailman). My problem is that all mail to Mailman's lists is bounced with unknown user. I think AMS needs to be shown how to forward this mail to sendmail so it can be processed by Mailman. Sendmail has all the aliases defined (and newaliased) for the lists. Mail going out from Mailman (e.g. mass subscribe notices from the web interface) works just fine. By the way, special thanks to Kathleen Webb for her great walk-through on the basic install. It works fine, except her non-server system doesn't have AppleMailServer and sendmail is the only mailserver involved. Any ideas? -- Stephanie Mitchell For beautiful lips, speak words of kindness.

python 2.0 -> 2.2 upgrade?
by Morgan Fletcher 04 Nov '02

04 Nov '02

I'd like to upgrade python on our mailman server from 2.0 to 2.2, so that when we make the mailman jump from 2.0.8 to 2.1 we'll already have python installed. And I want to see what's new in python 2.2. Does mailman work OK with python 2.2? Are there are any caveats to know about, before I make the upgrade?

RE: [Mailman-Users] Mailman postfix

Postfix doesn't allow programs in virtual maps. You need to point the list name to a local (@$myhostname) address and then put the wrapper program in the alas map.

Hello, I'm trying to figure how to subscribe to a list, say "test(a)black.ils.unc.edu" without using the web interface. Is there a way that I can send an email message to the server to subscribe? Thanks! Tommy tmann(a)black.ils.unc.edu

by jsingh 02 Nov '02

02 Nov '02

Hey Guys I am a newbie doing this mailman install. So far I have installed everything fine, I am able to view almost everything over the web(leaving the archives). I created a new mailing list, and mailman sent out a message to all the subscribers I enrolled. But when I send a message to the mailing list I got this in my Mail log "Oct 30 18:58:18 dragon sendmail[1508]: g9UNwImp001508: <mytestlist(a)dragon.fdu.edu>... User unknown " So I sent an email back to the admin and I got the same thing back "Oct 30 19:02:53 dragon sendmail[5302]: g9V02rmp005302: <mytestlist-admin(a)dragon.fdu.edu>... User unknown " Could anyone possibly tell me where I am staggering from my path. Please I need help on this, anyone who does , my thanks to them before hand. Newbie --
