Giant lists
by Tyler Strickland Feb. 24, 2005

Feb. 24, 2005

In the process of researching for better ways to do things with our mailman list, I came across the 'Giant Lists' thread of a few weeks ago. Realizing that our list is actually larger than the list mentioned (though not by much) and that this is probably a list I should be participating in, I decided to sign up. I'm sorry Cabel, but I'm going to have to take away your 'largest list' title. The AdoptionWeek E-Magazine, currently run with MailMain, sendmail, and the MySQL … [View More]

by Helen East Feb. 24, 2005

Feb. 24, 2005

Hiya, I'm the listowner of a mailman list and I will need in the future to export the 300 list members to another mailing list. I can't find any kind of way of getting all the email addresses out of Mailman into another format (eg. .csv file, or something) and there are too many to do by hand! I have tried to join your email list but the page seems to be down. Hope you can help! Helen East --------------------------------------------------------------- Helen East Research … [View More]

Is it possible to add the Description field on the list create web interface?
by Brian Ensor Feb. 24, 2005

Feb. 24, 2005

Running Mailman v.2.1.5 on RH Enterprise ES v.3 We have an issue with lists being created and having to rely on the list admins to input a list description. We would like to have the list creator be able to input the list name and description when using the web interface. Is there a way to modify this 'http://<yourserver>/mailman/create' page to include this at the time of creation?

HTML In lists and archives.
by Geoff Staples Feb. 24, 2005

Feb. 24, 2005

I could use some help in getting a mailing list configured properly with reference to HTML. It's mailman 2.1.5 Here's the issue: I understand the issue with the different Mime's, etc. So, I have a couple of questions - Which I hope may provide some solutions for me and others: 1. Am I correct that I cannot send a message in html to the list without having part of it broken out into attachments unless I do not send a mailman header or footer to the list? 2. Can I use html in the header and … [View More]

Email management
by Sam Bergin Feb. 24, 2005

Feb. 24, 2005

Hi group, New member, sorry if this has been asked before. I'm looking to setup Mailman on an OS X Server and pairing it to a full web front-end. The website is that of an association of some 8000 members, all of whom will need to be automatically subscribed when we cut over to the new system. (We can add the current members thru the Mailman web interface). New members will need to choose desired lists during their initial signup, and all members will need to be able to unsubscribe … [View More]
