Re: [Mailman-Users] Message Unparsable

After some research I have concluded that the errors I am getting from Mailman are because of a malformed MIME content. Since I am creating the message myself with a php page I am not surprised (my first time). Since this probably is a MIME issue I know this is not the correct forum. However, I am posting the suspect raw data here in the hopes someone is familiar enough with MIME to spot the problem. At the very least perhaps someone can point me to a good MIME forum. TIA.

How to set up a simultaneous unmoderated and moderated forum.
by Don Saklad June 23, 2005

June 23, 2005

How do you set up a forum so that a version is available that is unmoderated along with a version that is moderated, the choice up to subscribers?... Subscribers could alternate back and forth between the unmoderated and moderated versions of the forum depending on the threads that are of interest.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Need assistance trouble shooting problem after moving Mailman from one box to another

Thanks to everyone who has emailed me with assistance so far. I have some follow up questions: Following FAQ 3.1.4, I ran check perms. I see a print out of perms. does this command just tell you what they should be; does it fix them? As per Aliases, the FAQ is confusing to me, but may be the cause of my problems. I do not understand how to tell if postfix is recognizing the ~mailman/data/aliases file. How do I rebuild the aliases.db file? Thanks, On Jun 21, 2005, at 2:10 PM, … [View More]

strange change to email lists
by Thomas Hillson June 22, 2005

June 22, 2005

I just moved my server to a new box with RedHat Enterprise and I have a strange change in all my lists now. Rather than coming from the list-name they are all coming from the list-name-bounces. What would make that happen, I tried taking the alias list-name-bounces out of my my alias list. Mailman still is sending email as list-name-bounces. Where do I find the parameter to change this back to being sent from list-name? thanks, -- --Tom /-------------------------------------------------… [View More]
