Unknown local-part error
by Steve Barr Aug. 4, 2005

Aug. 4, 2005

Good morning. Our district mail server is running Exim on a Debian Woody box. Mailman is installed and has been working fine for several years. However, I have been creating new lists, and have run into a problem that I can't seem to figure out. I created a list named "mad-mail-admin". The list created fine, and I received the e-mail stating that the list was created. When I send a message to that list, I get an error in my Exim log that says: mad-mail-admin(a)example.net: unknown local-… [View More]

Hello, It seems the bounce scores do not appear into the administration pages. In particular into the membership administration pages. Where these scores are stored?

Hi Everyone, I've managed to get mailman installed on my FBSD 4.X system, but I can't seem to get a few things working. 1. I'm unable to access the web interface at the URLs provided in the confirmation email after creating the default mailman list. I just get the error: Bug in Mailman version 2.1.6 We're sorry, we hit a bug! Please inform the webmaster for this site of this problem. Printing of traceback and other system information has been explicitly inhibited, but the webmaster can find … [View More]this information in the Mailman error logs. 2. The error_log for the site contains the following traceback: (*Note, Sorry, but I've munged the actual system name on purpose, I've had to learn the hard way unfortunatly.

Aug. 4, 2005

Hello All - With Mark Sapiro's help, I got Mailman running on my apache virtual server, at least for the most important virtual host, xxx.org.

So, before unsubscribing from this list, I have a couple of questions. - 1) In the mm_cfg.py file, I have DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'xxxx.org' DEFAULT_URL_HOST =… [View More]
