hello i just installed mailman 2.0.9 on redhat 7.3, and i've run into a snag. i created a new list called "test", added the aliases for it to /etc/procmail/aliases, ran "postalias /etc/procmail/aliases", and then sent a message to my newly created list. i can see the message in the archive, and i can see in my maillog where the message was piped out to the wrapper script, but i haven't received the message at either of the accounts that i subscribed to the list. i don't see any errors … [View More]

After upgrade to MM 2.1.2 some messages sent to our mailinglists were being shunted and some discarded. I think that shunting had to do with MIME encoding (our users write in Slovak languague that uses characters with accent in windows-1250 encoding). We disabled all content filtering, but some problems still persist. Some messages sent to some public, unmoderated mailinglists with no content filtering set are still being automatically discarded by Mailman with no notice sent to poster or … [View More]

Subscribing people by email
by Simon Harrison June 25, 2003

June 25, 2003

Hi, We would like to subscribe people to Mailman 2.1.2 using a form on one of our websites that will generate an email to the request address with a subscribe request, however we do not want Mailman to send confirmation to each email address subscribed nor do we want to have to approve each request manually. Is there a way of achieving this, perhaps by including an approval password in the body of the message so that subscribe requests are automatically approved without the need for a confirm.… [View More]

Hello, I have set up Procmail, so that it fiters all the incoming mails, pipes them to spamassassin and then feeds them to the mailman wrapper.

I have a client who uses your Mailman to distribute messages to his list members. He would like to do two things: 1) embed html into the messages (font changes, images) 2) export the member list to CSV format (or similar ASCII file) Can he do either of these in Mailman? If you'd like to put his name on your inthenews.htm page, his name is Senator David Aronberg, site URL www.davearonberg.com Thanks so much, Debbie Sun Creations Web Design www.suncreations.biz debbiefry(a)… [View More]
