[Mailman-Users] Problem with multiple subscription confirmation messages
by S. Krishnan April 6, 2003

April 6, 2003

Hi, I just upgraded my mailman 2.0.13 install to 2.1.1 by downloading and installing from source. The previous version worked fine. However, 2.1.1 has a major issue with subscription messages. Every time someone subscribes to a list, mailman sends them a mailing list subscription confirmation notice. With mailman 2.1.1, replying to this notice does not seem to work. Instead of confirming the subscription, it sends *another* mailing list subscription confirmation notice, with a different … [View More]

Problems with large list
by Leonardo Sá April 6, 2003

April 6, 2003

Hi everyone, I'm running mailman with a list of more than 15000 subscribers. The problem is that i can't log into the web admin interface and i also can't subscribe any new user throught the web, although the lists that have less users can be easly managed. I've checked the apache configuration and it seems to be ok (otherwise, the other lists would not be working). Rebuilding the list from scratch also didn't work, and i do have 401mb ram that i think is enough for this kind of job. … [View More]

Text encoding issue
by Robert Costain April 6, 2003

April 6, 2003

I'm running Mailman 2.1.1 on Mac OS X Server. My lists are primarily English, but a few of them are also in French and even the English ones sometimes have French accented characters. As a result, I would like Mailman to encode all messages as ISO-8859-1. Here's my problem: A few users (particularly one subscriber using Outlook on Windows XP) receive most of the messages as text attachments rather than a message body. Accents were not displaying correctly on the main listinfo page in … [View More]

List of subscribers
by Pete Holsberg April 6, 2003

April 6, 2003

The admin window of my list shows 272 members. However, when I run bin/list_members, the list is only 147. Where did the others go? How do I sync these? There should be 272 members. Thanks.

Re: [Mailman-Users] New Mailman list administrator

Howdy Melissa I'm not positive, but I think this will work. Every web pages is made up of smaller python routines. Your webhost can give you copies of the html pages and probably the python routines. After modifying these files put them in the /lists/listname/en directory. I know this will work for straight HTML replacements and it may work for the smaller python routines. For example, if one list changes its list info page, the changes will be stored in that directory as listinfo.html. … [View More]

Using Mailman in a corporate environment with Exchange 5.5...
by jbrouhard＠ci.st-joseph.mo.us April 4, 2003

April 4, 2003

Okay, I got myself a problem I need some serious help with. I run various mail servers that run RedHat Linux, and a variety of MTA's (Postfix, Sendmail namely) and some have Mailman on them. They all work wonderfully. However where I work we have an Exchange 5.5 server for our mail, and I've got a problem getting Mailman/Sendmail to work with it. Every time I send an email to a test list (for example, test-l(a)listbox.corporate.net), the Exchange server replies saying "Unknown User" or "… [View More]
