by Paul Williams Oct. 25, 2004

Oct. 25, 2004

We have over 300 lists, many are being archived and we allow our members to send attachments. The archives are rapidly using up all the disk space on the partition. We could remotely mount a larger partition, but that would just delay the problem, because it looks like mailman archives will just keep growing without bounds. Looking through the documentation I haven't found a good solution as to what I need to do to manage the archives. I don't have time to individually edit each ~… [View More]

I know my MTA works, you folks get all my mail, my question is, why all ofa sudden mail to my mailman lists is not going through, not even mail from myself (my mail acocunt is on the same machine as the list).

Basic NewBIE Question
by Brett Hoffman Oct. 23, 2004

Oct. 23, 2004

Hi All, thanks in advance for any help offered. Could someone outline, step by step how to set up on a webpage a "subscribe to list" link. I should explain further I can get the page made on the web and add the link, I just have no idea how to set up mailman to accept a message from a certain address and add that address to a mailing list. Hope that makes sense, I want nothing more that all email sent to mylist(a)mmmm.com to be added to a list. Brett
