Re: [Mailman-Users] Getting unsubscribes notifications despite settings
by Anne Ramey March 2, 2004

I think what you are looking for is in the bounce processing section of the admin tool. Scroll down to notifications. Do you see what you need. Those 3 options are set to no for me, and I'm still getting notifications. Anne On Mar 1, 2004, at 10:57 PM, Lloyd F.

Cannot Find/Receive Bounce Messages
by Lloyd F. Tennison March 2, 2004

March 2, 2004

I am trying to review the bounce messages - as with the new SPAM blockers if you are not on the person's "approved" list you email may not go through. I cannot seem to get the bounce message that Mailman cannot process - with or without Mailman bounce processing on. I have tried setting to send the messages to the list owner, and have set the posting by non-members to be held and forwarded. I get one or two messages sent to the list admin, but when I turn off processing and purposely … [View More]

virus in mailman tools
by hongmj March 2, 2004

March 2, 2004

Dear sir, Thank you for your good production "mailman". It's really wonderful. I download mailman-2.1.3, but my virus scan tools(officescan 793) report "find a virus: mailman.tar.gz(mailman-2.1.3\tests\msgs\nimda.txt) virus name: HTML_IFRMEXP.GEN". Is it really a common nimda virus or not? Maybe it infect virus when you zip the "mailman". Could you please investigate it. And how about new version mailman-2.1.4? Best regard! your's truly hongmj

Split Digests and equal line wraps
by Anthony Carter March 2, 2004

March 2, 2004

Hi, If this is a double post I am sorry, but I can't find my message on the list so I sent it again. My digests are coming in about 4 attachments including a header, a footer, a message and another text message. Is there a way to combine these so that they are all one message rather than split? Secondly, I am getting '=' signes at the end of lines instead of carriage returns. The parsing seems to be really bad...For example: Because it's the favored payment system of its owner, online … [View More]

Problem creating a new List
by Nikhil Bajpai March 2, 2004

March 2, 2004

Hi, Sometime back I experimented with using Mailman on windows through cygwin. The approach worked after few hacks like changing file MailList.py and recreating MailList.pyc. (http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2003-August/031287.html) I want to know if there is a better way to use Mailman on windows ? Thanks, Nikhil Bajpai Induslogic Inc.

Spam, Etc.
by Robert Miller March 2, 2004

March 2, 2004

Hi, I'm a list manager in the United States Power Squadrons. I manage two of our e-mail lists through usps.org where Mailman is the system. Both my lists are suffering from multiple (3 to 6) attempts daily to send to the list from non list members which we do not allow. The problem is that I am continuously faced with clearing these messages. What is really needed is a way to set a switch to automatically reject messages from non-list members rather than have to intervene in every case. Is … [View More]

March 2, 2004

What/why are there forwards created from owner - listname @ domain to admin - listname @ domain? I have both tried with and without creating those email accounts and still receive net to no mail to the admin account as specified in the general setups option. Cannot find bounce (or any other except the one or two the system sends as bounce questions) messages. Thanks. Lloyd F.

AOL BS
by Dave Beightol March 2, 2004

March 2, 2004

Hello, We are using your mailing list system via Plesk server software on our site. When a normal email address is submitted, the system works perfect. When an AOL address is submitted it does not send the confirmation email or make any attempt to add the address to the list. Is this a mailing list issue or an AOL filter or something like that? How can we fix this? Here is the link to the sign up page on our site in case you need to see it. http://www.wiltshirepantry.com/… [View More]
