Mailman 3 March 2002 - Mailman-Users

The dreaded GID mismatch problem

March 1, 2002

I have been trolling the net and recompiling for hours but I have made little headway. Here's hoping someone has a tip that hasn't been archived somewhere online yet... I'm getting the classic "Child process of list_transport transport returned 2" error. My setup is FreeBSD 4.5, exim 3.34, mailman 2.0.8. It's a fresh install, though I brought some config files over from the previous build -- including an exim config file that played nice with mailman 2 on the old system! If there is a … [View More]

feature I would like to see ....

It's the first of the month. I am drowning in reminders of my password in all the mailing lists I am in. If I ever want to find out my passowrd, I can just click the button on its page, so I would really like a way to specify -- DO NOT REMIND ME EVERY MONTH ABOUT THE PASSWORD. That shouldn't be hard to add. Thanks very much, Laura Creighton -was this the correct place to send this?-

Hello I have just installed postfix and mailman. Sending mail works fine, but when a member tries to send a mail to a list he is a member of, it only results in : This is the Postfix program at host [snip] I'm sorry to have to inform you that the message returned below could not be delivered to one or more destinations. For further assistance, please send mail to <postmaster> If you do so, please include this problem report. You can delete your own text from the message returned … [View More]

Web Forum Frontend to Mailinglist
by Thomas Guettler Feb. 28, 2002

Feb. 28, 2002

Hi! Is it possible to get a web-frontend to a mailinglist? I think about a forum where you have threaded display of the messages and can post messages through the web without subscribing. Would be nice to have a bridge between these two "worlds" Please CC to me, I am not on the list. thomas -- Thomas Guettler <guettli(a)thomas-guettler.de> http://www.thomas-guettler.de

How the archives get indexed
by Kirez Korgan Feb. 28, 2002

Feb. 28, 2002

folks, I still haven't found a solution to getting my archives into reverse-chronological order. I emailed Mailman-Developers on this, and nobody responded, maybe I shouldn't have posted there. I've been searching through the archives of Users and haven't found anything yet. There certainly is nothing in the documentation. There's nothing in config_list. Does anybody know where, in the code, the chronology or indexing of the archives is set? That might give me something to tweak. … [View More]

I upgraded from mailman 2.0 to 2.0.8 and all those error messages in the cron jobs have disappeared! Super! Easy upgrade as well. From a previous Majordomo admin, Mailman rocks! Keep up the great work. gf

Broken subscribe form
by Molly Cliborne Feb. 28, 2002

Feb. 28, 2002

Hello out there! I'm a new user of Mailman, trying to get the system up and running for a friend. I changed some of the wording, and experimented with changing the order of options on the List Info Page (placing Unsubscribe option before Subscribe). Well, that'll teach me to mess with code. Now my form doesn't work. The Submit button does nothing in IE, and the form blanks don't show up in Netscape. I've switched the order back around, but my form still doesn't work. The form is located … [View More]
