BTW how can I add taglines, i.e. random strings picked frpm a text file
where they lies every one on a separate line. ALmost every list manager
has tag lines administration, but I did not find them in mailman...

"rarest jewel is a true heart"
Upgrade script broke (not the first time).
from Mailman import MailList
from Mailman.LockFile import TimeOutError
from Mailman.i18n import _
I'm getting error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/mailman/bin/update", line 51, in ?
from Mailman.i18n import _
ImportError: No module named i18n
It doesn't balk on the line before, so it doesn't seem to be a path
issue.
When I comment that line out (for grins), it balks on:
from Mailman.Queue.Switchboard import Switchboard
from Mailman import OldStyleMemberships
from Mailman.MemberAdaptor import BYBOUNCE, ENABLED
Any clues?

I finally figured out my error -
The missing configuration was in mm_cfg.py
The mailman list was not defined.
All is working now.

I am trying to use exim with mailman. I've followed the directions at
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2002-November/
024041.html , but changing MAILMAN_WRAP=/usr/local/mailman/mail/wrapper
to MAILMAN_WRAP=/var/mailman/mail/mailman and changing the various
instances of config.db to config.pck.
When mail is passed to mailman, I get the following in my
/var/spool/exim/log/mainlog:
2003-09-15 23:40:19 19z2x8-0005cR-Ub ** thingies(a)3e.org
<thingies-request(a)3e.org> R=list_request_router
T=list_request_transport: Child process of list_request_transport
transport returned 6 from command: /var/mailman/mail/mailman
What does the return value '6' mean?

Can anyone tell me how to change the text formatting of my information page for my mailman list?
Whenever I change fonts simply by using <font> commands or using style sheets and <div> commands the subscribe command doesn't work..
Is it possible to change teh formatting?? If so how??
Thanks

Hi,
Is there a way for mailman's configure script to detect the
current settings (such as
--with-username, --with-mail-gid and so on)?
Or is there a quick way for me to manually check what they
should be?
I want to be able to upgrade mailman, but I never remember
exactly what those settings should be, and since I have
non-default settings, everytime I rebuild mailman,
everything goes out of whack because I haven't specified the
appropriate configuration.

My organization recently switched from Majordomo to Mailman. We are *very*
happy with the change to say the least.
One of my list owners needs to get a list of all subscribers for a
particular list and she needs to do this frequently. She does not have shell
access to the box running Mailman. With Majordomo it was a simple matter of
sending Majordomo the "who" command. Is there something comparable in
Mailman? The web interface doesn't solve the problem because it doesn't show
all subscribers at once.
I was about to set up a cron job to email her the list of subscribers
weekly, but I thought I'd check with this list first. Is there a Mailman
equivalent for the Majordomo command "who"? Thanks.
