I am having that problem where qrunner is unable to deliver emails and files start to ad up in the qfiles dir without a single email being delivered. I am using sendmail and it looks like the problem is what I get in the smtp log dir (from mailman): Mar 01 16:11:05 2002 (81012) All recipients refused: host not found Mar 01 16:11:05 2002 (81012) All recipients refused: host not found Mar 01 16:11:05 2002 (81012) All recipients refused: host not found Mar 01 16:11:05 2002 (81012) All … [View More]

How to prevent....
by Michael H Moran March 1, 2002

March 1, 2002

Running mailman 2.0.8 on RH 7.2 with sendmail. I thought the list was locked do to just the listowner being able to approved held messages and no explict pass throughs. Today someone replied to an approved message ( which uses the list as the sender and explict reply-to of the list ) and it went all the way to the list without being held. Is this a bug or a feature? Better yet, how can I prevent it from happening again ? Thanks. Mike

My net is going down ... I need urgent help!!!

The University is shutting down our network for several days to upgrade. I have a list for birdwatchers which is 24/7 ... and is very important to the members. If you are willing to host this list for a week or so I would appreciate it. The list is about 500 regular members and 150 digest members. I have the addresses in files that I can send to you. thanks so much in advance. -- Paul L. Schumacher Winona State University Computer Science Department

Random Mail List
by MikeT＠scitechsoft.com March 1, 2002

March 1, 2002

I would like to be able to prove when a list begins and ends sending. I tried subscribing aaa(a)mydomain.com and zzz(a)mydomain.com. But the list does not seem to send in alpha order. Looking at a generated file using ~/mailman/bin/list_members does not show the list members in order of date of subscription or alpha. How does mailman choose to send to the list, "Alpha, Date of subscription"? What is a good way to know how many have been sent, or percentage done? Thanks for any help. Regards MikeT

reminder to moderator?
by Andrew Watson March 1, 2002

March 1, 2002

Today, as expected, my list sent out reminders to subscriber regarding features and options. But even though the message already went to the list, a reminder was also sent to the moderator for approval. Why is that, and is there any harm in just discarding it? -Andrew

Initial configuration
by Ralph Boersema March 1, 2002

March 1, 2002

Dear Folks, We have just installed mailman and are as yet unfamiliar with it. We have run into a problem with the configuration. I can't get email aliases to work. We tried it out by creating a test group. The problem is that when a user registers for the group, an email is sent to a certain email address created by Mailman. This address forwards (or is supposed to) to the administrator of the group. The problem is that the email address aliases that should point to him are not being created … [View More]

Approval
by Gregory Bouckhuyt March 1, 2002

March 1, 2002

Hi ... I'm using mailman 2.0.8 and it's working fine except for one little detail but annoying. In the general options of my 2 lists, I choosed "No" for the "(Administrivia filter) Check postings and intercept ones that seem to be administrative requests?". But when I send a mail from a subscriber's address to a list, mailman sends a mail to the list owner asking him his approval. Obviously, mailman then waits my approval :).... Isn't "(Administrivia filter) Check postings and intercept … [View More]
