Mailman Setting question
by Kory Wheatley Jan. 31, 2004

Jan. 31, 2004

In Mailman 2.1.4, what option do I change to allow members and non-members to post to the list without moderator approval. I want every message sent directly to the list.

Jan. 31, 2004

Hi, My name is Amanda Faith and I work for a church that is interested in setting up email lists for different groups in the church. We were wondering about your services and how exactly we'd set up the lists. Also, I would like to know if there is a limit to the number of lists we would be able to set up. Thanks for your help, Amanda Faith All Souls Church Reception & Admin. Asst. (918) 743-2363 afaith(a)allsoulschurch.org

x.509 cert authentication for web interface?
by Noah Meyerhans Jan. 30, 2004

Jan. 30, 2004

Hi all. I'm wondering if anybody has devised a way to authenticate to the admin/moderator interfaces in Mailman using browser certificates. We try to use them to authenticate to web services wherever possible, and have a fairly widely deployed PKI at my site. It seems like this should be possible, but I really don't know python and am not very familiar with Mailman's code. We use Apache and mod_ssl, which means that we can make a bunch of environment variables associated with the … [View More]

Never mind. It helps to use the right password. That being said, how can a subscriber cause his password to be resent? I had to unsubscribe and then resubscribe myself to find my missing (subscriber) password. > I am the adminstrator and subscriber to a list. I sent a command to > list-request(a)mydomain.com with the body of the message "who > <password>". The server responded, "You are not allowed to retrieve the > list membership." "Who can view subscription list?" … [View More]

removing members who aren't on the list ???
by Heather Skojec Jan. 30, 2004

Jan. 30, 2004

Hi. I'm the list administrator for a listserv that goes out weekly to about 2000 email addresses. Each week I receive about 15-20 bounced emails. When I try to remove them from the list, the address listed is not subscribed. I assume that this means the listserv email is forwarded to the email address that isn't working. Is there anyway to find out what the original email address is so that I can remove these from the subscribers list? Thanks for your help. Hillary Edwards Program … [View More]

Can I set up a user-friendly write-to address?
by Lee Jan. 30, 2004

Jan. 30, 2004

Hello, I have Mailman installed as a standard option on my web host, but the only thing stopping me from moving over to it is the way the write-to email address is configured, which I feel is far too complicated for my users to grapple with. Here's how my list's address gets set up : incel_incelsite.com(a)incelsite.com where 'incel' is my chosen list name and 'incelsite.com' is my primary domain on that web account. I need to have the write-to address as simply : incel(a)incelsite.com … [View More]
