'unknown user' error
by Mailman Sept. 3, 2002

Sept. 3, 2002

I created a small list with 4 subscribers. After sending the first e-mail, I get this bounced back to me. I never entered a user with this name, no record of this user is listed in ~/logs/subscribe I have been puzzled over this for about the past hour or so. BTW, thanks to all those who helped me with my install. Once made, the rest of the install went off without a single problem. >From legg(a)iastate.edu Tue Sep 3 16:24:02 2002 Status: RO X-Status: Return-Path: <MAILER-DAEMON> … [View More]Received: from pop-2.iastate.edu (pop-2.iastate.edu [129.186.1.62]) by pop-5.iastate.edu (8.12.0/8.12.0) with ESMTP id g83LO2gi011035 for <legg(a)pop-5.iastate.edu>; Tue, 3 Sep 2002 16:24:02 -0500 Received: from mailin-2.iastate.edu (mailin-2.iastate.edu [129.186.140.12]) by pop-2.iastate.edu (8.12.0/8.12.0) with SMTP id g83LO1rd024596 for <legg(a)iastate.edu>; Tue, 3 Sep 2002 16:24:01 -0500 Received: from frybread.stuorg.iastate.edu(129.186.47.113) by mailin-2.iastate.edu via csmap id 5658; Tue, 03 Sep 2002 16:23:32 -0500 (CDT) Received: by frybread.stuorg.iastate.edu (Postfix) id 011C9FF4B; Tue, 3 Sep 2002 16:27:33 -0500 (CDT) Date: Tue, 3 Sep 2002 16:27:33 -0500 (CDT) From: MAILER-DAEMON(a)frybread.stuorg.iastate.edu (Mail Delivery System) Subject: Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender To: legg(a)iastate.edu MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/report; report-type=delivery-status; boundary="CEABEFE00.1031088453/frybread.stuorg.iastate.edu" Message-Id: <20020903212733.011C9FF4B(a)frybread.stuorg.iastate.edu> X-UIDL: bd46b13ab3517c98fc70708c20c22111 This is a MIME-encapsulated message. --CEABEFE00.1031088453/frybread.stuorg.iastate.edu Content-Description: Notification Content-Type: text/plain This is the Postfix program at host frybread.stuorg.iastate.edu.

large list questions (15000 users)
by Lars Andersson Sept. 3, 2002

Sept. 3, 2002

I've been using mailman for my private small lists for a while now and I am very pleased with it. Now it's time to sneek it into my work. I'm working for a webhosting company and a customer wants me to implement a list with around 15.000 recipients. The list will be used for a daily post from the administrator to the recipents, so the traffic will be fairly limited and controlled. I have a few questions. 1. Can mailman handle such large lists (It will be running on a dedicated linux box with … [View More]

I have Mailman 2.0.13 and I notice every month I'm getting lots of unsubscribe requests to mailman-owner(a)aros.net. Is there a way to change the configuration so that the list owner gets these requests and not me (ie: listname-owner(a)aros.net).?? Any help would be appreciated.

Hi, I feed some mailinglists to a local newsserver. 4 local people read this lists and discuss on them. The problem is, that I register an address ml-XX(a)alae.gnuu.de.

2.1b3 and making a list moderated?
by Mike D. Sept. 3, 2002

Sept. 3, 2002

Hello, My server administrator just installed 2.1b3. There was the option to moderate all postings to a list in the privacy section of the previous version of Mailman, but now I can not locate any such option. The only thing I can find is the "Emergency moderation of all list traffic" selection at the top of the admin pages. Is this the only way to have the email list now be moderated, or is there another way I am missing. -- Take care, Mike D. AOL Instant Messenger "fnmjd" Yahoo Instant Messenger "fnmjd"
