XHTML Compliant Web UI - 2.1.6 Patch
by Bryan Carbonnell 12 Jun '05

12 Jun '05

I have just uploaded an updated patch that will make the web UI for MM 2.1.6 XHTML 1.0 strict compliant. This patch allows for some CSS formatting as well. I have tried to make all the pages compliant, but I may have missed some combinations of pages and options, so if you find some that aren't compliant, please let me know which page isn't compliant and under which circumstances it's not. It it patch 1160353 in the Sourceforge Mailman patch repository. http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1160353&group _id=103&atid=300103 If anyone has any feedback on it, I'd love to hear it,since this is my first attempt at creating a patch. -- Bryan Carbonnell - carbonnb(a)sympatico.ca The man who claims to be the boss in his own home will lie about other things as well.

changing mailing list name
by Cassie Ferguson 12 Jun '05

12 Jun '05

Is there a way to change the name of a mailing list using the administrator's web interface? If not, is there a relatively simple way to do it by logging into my machine? I'd rather not have to bother with resubscribing people, plus it would be nice to move the archive from the old list into the newly named one. Thanks, Cassie

Insert character to footer
by Terry Allen 11 Jun '05

11 Jun '05

Hi all, I'm not really having any problems as such with Mailman currently, but I do have a minor question that some searching has not revealed an easy answer to. I wish to insert an ampersand (&) into the footer, but when I use plain &, it generates & into the footer. Should I enclose it in some way? Also, I am running 2.1.5 with the security update. Could someone please outline the easiest way to update to 2.1.6? I am currently running Mac OSX 10.4.1 if that's of any consequence. Many thanks. -- Bye for now, Terry Allen ___________________________________________________________________ hEARd Postal Address: hEARd, 26B Glenning Rd, Glenning Valley, NSW 2261, Australia Internet - WWW: http://heard.com.au http://itavservices.com EMAIL: hmag(a)ozemail.com.au Phone: Australia - 02 4388 1400 / International - + 61 2 43881400 Mobile: Australia - 04 28881400 / International - 61 4 28881400 ----------------------------------------------- Non profit promotion for new music - since 1994 -----------------------------------------------

Public Mailing list
by Dennis Putnam 10 Jun '05

10 Jun '05

I cannot see how to create a public mailing list. I want to create a list that allows anyone to post a message (non-subscribers) but distribute the message to list members. Can someone point me in the right direction? TIA.

messages without Date:
by Meike Reichle 10 Jun '05

10 Jun '05

Hi all maybe you can help me with a small problem: When creating a new mailing list using the web interface I receive two emails, the confirmation email and another one telling me which aliases I have to create. The latter however comes without a Date: line in the header. I am not sure whether this is a mailman issue or rather a flaw in my system/MTA configuration. It's more an inconvenience than an actual problem but I'd like to fix it anyway. So, if anyone can provide a hint ...

Auto discard non-members messages
by Daevid Vincent 10 Jun '05

10 Jun '05

I'm starting to see a lot of spam sent to my two lists. Both are members only. I'd like mailman to automatically discard any messages sent to the list from non-members. However, I would like to accept (and send to me/admin) any subscribe request messages (otherwise, how would I get new members ;-) Can someone tell me how to do this?

by Julien Francoz CoCoZ 10 Jun '05

10 Jun '05

I have another problem on one mailing-list. It was working fine, but since 2 days, all mails to list departement-linux(a)minux.esi-supinfo.com are not deliver. All others mailing lists are working fine. Here are the logs of mailman for this list post:Jun 09 12:07:49 2005 (23711) post to departement-linux from julien.francoz(a)supinfo.com, size=6134, message-id=<42A81532.6060503(a)supinfo.com>, success smtp:Jun 09 12:07:49 2005 (23711) <42A81532.6060503(a)supinfo.com> smtp for 40 recips, completed in 2.202 seconds There is no error in postfix logs. Have you got an idea ? (it's the mailman package on MacosX server) -- Julien Francoz CoCoZ

subject_prefix is missing
by Julien Francoz CoCoZ 10 Jun '05

10 Jun '05

I have a list with subject_prefix=[dept-linux/pedago] , but since a few hours, this prefix is not added to the subject of mails of this list. Is there an options to allow/deny the subject_prefix ? Note: This prefix is added to all mails in the mailing-list archive, even for mail which are delivered without subject_prefix. Thanks -- Julien Francoz CoCoZ
