HTML mail getting garbled
by Allen Watson July 28, 2005

July 28, 2005

I'm having a problem like Liviu reported a couple of weeks ago. I'm on Mac OS X Tiger. I created an HTML mail message as follows: Message, including graphic, is posted as a web page by our designer. I open this in a browser, and use Safari's "Mail contents of this Page" command, which creates a message in Mail.app. The message looks perfect. I address it to our list, and CC it to myself. Second method: Using Microsoft Word's "Open Web Page" command, I access the web page. It opens and … [View More]

Extract list members from backup without installing
by Drew Bell July 28, 2005

July 28, 2005

The server that hosted our Mailman list was swiped by management for other use. They were considerate enough to pull the hard drive, though, and it's mounted on my laptop via firewire. Now, I'd like to set up a new list (management provided some space on an existing, non-Mailman list server) and subscribe all our old members. Is there a way to extract the member list without installing Mailman on my laptop? None of the handy scripts (like list_members) work, because the directory structure's … [View More]

Re: [Mailman-Users] unsubscribe without confirmation
by Sintz, James July 27, 2005

July 27, 2005

I am not talking about approval. No approval is required. I don't want the user to be required to CONFIRM their unsubscribe. Mailman seems kind of backwards in that I can configure it to allow open subs without confirmation or approval, but not open unsubs. Unsubs may not require approval, but seem to always require confirmation. Again, my members don't have access to the web interface or know about a password. -----Original Message----- From: John Fleming [mailto:john@wa9als.com] Sent: … [View More]Wednesday, July 27, 2005 11:17 AM To: mailman-users(a)python.org Subject: Re: [Mailman-Users] unsubscribe without confirmation On Wednesday 27 July 2005 09:38 am, Sintz, James wrote: > Is there a way to enable unsubscribing without requiring user confirmation? > Users are added to the list manually by an administrator, yet we do want > to allow users the ability to unsubscribe using the listname-leave@ > address. > > Our list is a one-way newsletter letter list and users do NOT have access > to any of mailman's web based user pages.

Assuming that YOU do have access to the web pages, it seems the default behavior as seen in the Privacy Settings page would be to NOT require moderator approval for unsubscribes. There you can set YES or NO, but the default is NO. Seems to me they should be able to unsubscribe via email. - John ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users(a)python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/jsintz%40opers.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: The Ohio Public Employees Retirement System intends this e-mail message, and any attachments, to be used only by the person(s) or entity to which it is addressed.

unsubscribe without confirmation
by Sintz, James July 27, 2005

July 27, 2005

Is there a way to enable unsubscribing without requiring user confirmation? Users are added to the list manually by an administrator, yet we do want to allow users the ability to unsubscribe using the listname-leave@ address. Our list is a one-way newsletter letter list and users do NOT have access to any of mailman's web based user pages. Our mailman installation is behind a firewall and port 80 is being blocked. Only our admins and moderators have access to the web interface. I searched … [View More]

Hello Mailman-users, I'm a Mailman 2.1.6rc4 site admin.
