Hide list address?
by Ricardo Kleemann Nov. 17, 2023

Nov. 17, 2023

Hi, Is there any way to configure Mailman such that, for an announcement-only type list, when a message is sent to the list, the To: shows the member's address, rather than the list address? Some list software allows the ability to hide the list address itself, so that address is not advertised. I couldn't find any configuration specific to that.

Membership Management And Other Problems.
by multimedia-fan＠myrealbox.com March 21, 2006

March 21, 2006

Greetings, I cannot "Set everyone's moderation bit, including those members not currently visible" to on, in the membership management section in any list. I have set OWNERS_CAN_ENABLE_PERSONALIZATION = 1 In /Mailman/mm_cfgy.py But still have the same problem. Also I cannot set or unset digest for all users, any thing I overlooked? This was happening before the changes made in the next issue explained below. In the last couple of days we had to reconfigure reverse mapping in DNS for … [View More]

Where is 'reject' message stored
by Warren Hoffman Jan. 24, 2005

Jan. 24, 2005

One of my associates set up content filters to reject attachments and other things. He created a custom message to explain this. Now he wants to change the message, but I cannot locate which file in /mailman holds the text (and I did look at all of them). Can somebody tell me how I could find it. I do know text fragments. Thanks!!! --Warren

Upgrade hell (Debian)

Jan. 5, 2005

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 … [View More]

Re: mm_stats question
by Jon Carnes May 1, 2004

May 1, 2004

I just double checked and it works fine on all my sites... Do you have any lists with "=" in the name? If that is the case, then you would need to modify the first line and add in an additional cut: SIZ=`grep -i "post to $i" $POST |grep success |cut -f2- -d, | \ cut -f2 -d= |cut -f1 -d,` k=0; for j in $SIZ; do k=$(( j + k )); done echo " Total bytes" = $k >> $TMPFILE This additional cut will remove the listname from the line before using the "=" to isolate the size of the … [View More]message If that doesn't do it for you, then drop a copy of your post log and the name of the list with the problems and I'll see what needs to be modified.

inserting fields into a message
by E Publisher March 7, 2004

March 7, 2004

Hi, I've installed mailman to use as a mailing list (as opposed a discussion list) and I want to do something similar to what can be done in, say, Outlook when sending bulk emails and merging in data fields. Specifically, I want mailman to automatically insert the subscriber's email address into the body or footer of my message. Is it possible to insert a field in this way? Thanks, B.
