FreeBSD 4.7-Rel Python 2.2.1 Sendmail 8.12.6 I'm still getting this daily on a number of cron driven jobs. Running the ~mailman/bin/list_lists script by hand as user mailman also returns the same error. Is there a way to repair the pickle file? > cPickle.UnpicklingError: member is not safe for unpickling Thanks in advance.

Web interface question.
by Tussing, Leith Oct. 29, 2003

Oct. 29, 2003

If this is a repetitive question I apologize for that. I looked and was unable to find anything useful on this topic to help me. We're in the process of setting up a mailman server for some of our clients for the first time. Our boss wants to give the clients access to the web interface, but we would prefer not to have users accessing this machine directly at all for anything. Currently we have mail being smart hosted to it, and the machine locked down so that only the smart host can talk to the mailman server at all. My question is, is there a way to run the web interface from another web server (preferably not using the NFS method because all of the other machines are Windows machines)? If someone could point me to any resources about this topic it would be greatly appreciated. We've thought about writing some web applications that would craft emails in the correct form to be used as a remote web interface, but our boss does not wish us to take the time right now to create such scripts. If someone knew where I could find some scripts already made that would be great as well. -Leith Tussing

Mailman locks directory
by mailman＠darksleep.com Oct. 29, 2003

Oct. 29, 2003

Hi folks, How dangerous is it to muck with the locks directory of a mailman install? I'm trying to figure out why my mailman installation doesn't send messages through. - postfix receives mail and passes it into the mailman wrapper (from looking at /var/log/mail) - mailman appears to be able to send (things like subscription confirmations get sent out) - but normal list traffic doesn't get through. - there are a dozen or so files in the locks directory, even though no messages have been sent out to the lists in a couple weeks. I'm wondering if there might be a way to kick-start mailman again, maybe by removing the lock files. But would this be dangerous? I'm not worried about the messages that haven't gone out, at this point, just about getting things moving again. -- Steven J.

Is the MM-Stylesheet patch written for 2.1.1 now a part of 2.1.3? I'm running 2.1.2 and wondering whether to apply the patch or upgrade. Thanks in advance, Jose
