Receiving Dupes
by Bob Branch 30 Nov '04

30 Nov '04

Any Idea why I am receiving 2 copies of each message? I have made sure I am not signed in under 2 different addresses, I have signed out and made sure I don't get any more messages. But when I sign back on (just once) I get the dupes again. Bob --------------------- E-Mail: mailto:bob@w2ras.com Website: www.rebhosting.com

How to disable "the results of your email commands" notifications???
by Alan Silcott 30 Nov '04

30 Nov '04

I am trying to setup a list where you can email a subscribe request and not receive any confirmations at all. I am not sure if I am missing a setting, but I can't figure out how to disable the "the results of your email commands" notification. I did do some searching before hand and found this post: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2004-January/033757.html But I would like to see if there is a easy way to do this before I start commenting code. Thanks!!!! Alan

user's replies are detected as bounces
by Anne Ramey 30 Nov '04

30 Nov '04

All other users of this list can reply to messages normally, but I have one user that every time he replies, the list admin gets a message like: -----Original Message----- From: mailman-bounces(a)ncees.org [mailto:mailman-bounces@ncees.org] Sent: Monday, November 29, 2004 10:12 AM To: list-owner(a)ncees.org Subject: Uncaught bounce notification The attached message was received as a bounce, but either the bounce format was not recognized, or no member addresses could be extracted from it. This mailing list has been configured to send all unrecognized bounce messages to the list administrator(s). His user looks like it is set up exactly like all the others. Any ideas why this might be happening? -- Anne Ramey

archive link returns a 404
by R DeWald 30 Nov '04

30 Nov '04

When I click the archive link from my admin or general information pages it returns a 404: "The requested URL /pipermail/eat/ was not found on this server." The list name in this example is "eat," by the way. I have a feeling this is an apache redirect issue, a mm_config mistake or something similarly brain-dead, I am getting the same result for all lists on this server. I have tried the faq wizard, but apparently I am equally incompetent there. Any hints would be appreciated.

Allow list members to send mails to another list
by DIGITAL FOR YOU - Alexander Schwethelm 29 Nov '04

29 Nov '04

Hi there, I know I just bothered the list with my installation problems, but I hope you all allow me another questions. :-) I am in the process to get my lists up and running and I do have a little problem. Is ther a way to either allow a complete list to send messages to another list they are no subscribed to or open this list to allow anybody no matter if subscribed or not to send messages to a list? As said before I am installing mailman for a hockey club and team members should be able to send messages to each other. So e.g. all men should subsrcibe to the list "hockeymen" and all women to "hockeywomen". I they want to send a mail to both men and women I would like them to simply send the mail to both lists, but they are only subscribed to one of the lists. Of course I could create a third list "hockeyboth" but this would not be very userfriendly. In the adminpanel I have the field "accept_these_nonmembers". Could I set some kind of wildcard there? What would I have to write? Something like ^*? Thanks for any help and best regards, Alex

How to configure a "moderated list"
by Douglas McCarroll 29 Nov '04

29 Nov '04

Hi All, How should I configure my Mailman list so that it's a moderated list? I don't see a setting for this. I see two ways to approximate it but both have problems. 1. I can set every user to moderated. The problem with this is that every time someone new subscribes I have to set them as moderated. I'm looking for a global setting. 2. I can turn on emergency moderation. The problem with this is that when a member who isn't set to moderated posts a message I don't get an email informing me of the fact. It just sits there on the server until I check for posts. Is there some way that I can specify that all messages should be moderated, and get a notification email every time any member posts? Without having to individually set each new subscriber to moderated? Thanks, Douglas

wee problem with web site showing "wrong" email address for the owner.
by Steven Jones 29 Nov '04

29 Nov '04

Hi All, I have an issue with mailman's web interface when I go to mail a list owner, it shows "ssk at vuw.ac.xxxx" as the owner contact (which is correct, except for the @) but when you click URL on this to send an email it appears as ssk-owner(a)vuw.ac.xxxx in the email client applications. This will not work as xxx-owner@vuw does not exist in the vuw.ac.xxxx domain. What I need the output to be is either ssk-owner(a)mailman.vuw.ac.xxxx which is the lists server or ssk(a)vuw.ac.xxxx which would go directly How can I set this please? regards Steven
