mm 2.1.4 - hit error on user validation for pipermail list archives

Feb. 25, 2004

Hi, I updated to 2.1.4 last month and just noticed an error when I try to view a private list archive when entering an invalid email address. If I enter a valid email/password, it loads the archive index.html page correctly. If I enter a valid email and a bad password I get the correct authorization failed message. The problem occurs when I enter an invalid email address (for example, I entered 'jdell' or 'jdell(a)bad.dom' rather than 'jdell(a)unr.edu'). Here is the error: Thanks for any … [View More]help! John Bug in Mailman version 2.1.4 We're sorry, we hit a bug!

AOL users not getting daily nomail notifications...
by Pug Bainter Feb. 25, 2004

Feb. 25, 2004

Good Morning, This one apparently has many of us confused and I haven't seen a real solution in the archives. - My AOL list owners get removed from their own lists. - My AOL list members who go to nomail get removed from the list and never get the daily notifications. - In both cases above, the AOL user gets the notification they were removed, but not the other warnings. I know that I had about a 24 hour period that AOL had the site black listed, although they couldn't tell me … [View More]

request index of archive via the email interface
by todd.wilson Feb. 25, 2004

Feb. 25, 2004

I have tried Majordomo commands such as index list-name but I keep getting "No commands were found in this message." as a response back. I know about sending the help command to get a list of mail commands but the commands sent back are for managing your account via email. Are these commands not supported by Mailman? Yes I know my users could use the WEB interface but I have users who insist on only using command line interface and who dial in via 9600bps.

nested
by Jason Williams Feb. 25, 2004

Feb. 25, 2004

I have 4 lists, one of them only has members specified as the other lists. If I post to that nested list I assumed that the people on any of those lists would get the message. Instead I find that the message is held. I have tried configuring he lists so that only list members can post to them, and then made the nested list a list member. This has not worked. What do I have to do to be able to post to the nested list, and for that message to auto get out to the other list who make up the … [View More]
