Subscribe OK/ Doesn't Post [Imap-specific]
by Karl R. Balsmeier May 3, 2004

May 3, 2004

I have a unique problem. Users operating squirrelmail[via imap] can subscribe to a list. But cannot post to it. They see the traffic, but when responding to a post, the replies never make it to the list. The same user can switch to Eudora/Ximian/Kmail[pop3d] and respond to a post, and see their reply, it makes it to the list just fine. I've read the logs in mailman, thinking smtp-failures log would have some answers, none found there or the other logs. I have also monitored traffic with … [View More]

Anyone know how to edit the html of the "confirm subscription page?" I see how to edit the html of the other four pages, but then it gives you the standard, crappy-looking mailman page to confirm your subscription. If you know the answer, please keep in mind i am not a programmer, and just pretty much know html. Thanks! Jonathan www.zzizzle.com

I was advised by Barry Warsaw to contact you . I am in need of help with my subscription to The _peterson_trial_ The Peterson Case Updates. I have been a subscriber since November 30, 2004.

I also keep up with news on the LACI board. Since all this took place and changes have been made, I simply do not understand the … [View More]

Problem with subscription parsing?
by David Bourguignon May 2, 2004

May 2, 2004

Hi all, I have a problem to register to mailing lists managed with gnu mailman. I think it comes from the way my free email provider writes the subject line content but I'm not sure. I copied below the email I sent to the gnu mailman server using the first "reply" method and the answer I got back from it. I did not use the second "single line in the message body" method because my email provider automatically adds a few extra lines at the end of my emails (advertisement for its ADSL internet … [View More]service). Since this is not the first time this problem occurs to me, with different gnu mailman servers, I thought it might be of interest. If you need more information, please let me know.

Extreme CPU usage..
by Anders Norrbring May 2, 2004

May 2, 2004

I've noticed that at change of month when e-mail should be sent to all list members (the password reminder) my CPU usage increases dramatically. Right now I can see that Python consumes 93.4% of the CPU time (checked in top). My mailman is v2.1.2 and the list (one and only) has about 180 members. A wild guess would be that about 5% of these are invalid addresses. Anyone with a qualified guess? Anders.
