postfix and mailman
by lenny Jan. 26, 2005

postfix, mailman, solaris. I keep getting this error when creating lists via web interface. all data/alias* files are owned by mailman:mailman and I have the mta defined as postfix and /usr/local/data/aliases as postfix alias map. It seems that after I run bin/genaliases command manually, things move on. the list can be managed and mail gets delivered, but it's not good enough, since the list owner never gets the "list created" message because of this error and obviously I don't want to … [View More]

Not out of the starting block
by Chris Wright Jan. 26, 2005

Jan. 26, 2005

I'm trying to install Mailman 2.1.5 on a new server. I've got an older version running happily elsewhere - but I can't get out of the starting blocks on this new one. Which is frustrating... I set it up in /usr/local/mailman and have run: configure --with-mail-gid=admin --with-cgi-gid=mailman make su mailman make install This last runs OK, but ends with an error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "bin/update", line 46, in ? import paths File "bin/paths.py", line 59, in ? … [View More]

SuSE patch mailman 2.1.4-83.10-patch (i586) causing much grief
by Mark Sapiro Jan. 26, 2005

Jan. 26, 2005

At least three separate SuSE users have posted at mailman-users(a)python.org requesting help after the subject patch broke their mailman web access. The part of the patch which patches scripts/driver depends on the escape() function in Python XML library module xml.sax.saxutils. Apparently the XML library is not installed by default with Python on SuSE and the dependency is not noted in the patch RPM. This is causing much grief for SuSE Mailman users and the mailman-users(a)python.org (… [View More]

/etc/aliases
by Pantejo, Barbara FTL Jan. 26, 2005

Jan. 26, 2005

When creating new mailing lists through the web browser, why aren't the aliases automatically generated in the /etc/aliases file? Does anyone know an easy way to configure mailman to auto-generate the aliases when creating new mailing lists through the web browser? I would hate to only run the newlist command, then manually edit the /etc/aliases file, every time a new mailing list is required. Thanks, Barbara

subscription via form
by Grant Henry Jan. 26, 2005

Jan. 26, 2005

Just wanted to tell you all how versatile this program is! I'm using it for a basic one-way mailing list, so I almost feel bad for not using it up to its full functionality. ;) My question is this... I run www.metroidmetal.com. I want people to be able to join the mailing list by filling out the form on the front page, and the e-mail field being automatically submitted for subscription - of course bounces would be handled by the program. This would lighten my manual load. How would I go … [View More]

maiman with postfix
by Eljee (laptop) Jan. 26, 2005

Jan. 26, 2005

Hi All, I got a configuration problem. I try to get postfix to work nicely with mailman with virtual domains. For some strange reason are the mailmanlists under my 'mydomain' of 'myhostnam' working as it should but the mailmanlists under my virtual domains are not working. For example list-1-subscribe(a)anotherdomain.com will not be processed by mailman but just delivered at validuser(a)anotherdomain.com. /var/mailman/data/virtual-mailman contains the line: list-1-subscribe(a)… [View More]
