subscribe policy for admin and user approval not working
by Jana Nguyen Feb. 24, 2006

Feb. 24, 2006

Do I need to comment out the DEFAULT_SUBSCRIBE_POLICY=1 in the Defaults.py file (I believe you don't modify this file). # SUBSCRIBE POLICY # 0 - open list (only when ALLOW_OPEN_SUBSCRIBE is set to 1) ** # 1 - confirmation required for subscribes # 2 - admin approval required for subscribes # 3 - … [View More]

Introduction and a quick question.
by Jason Pruim Feb. 24, 2006

Feb. 24, 2006

Hello, Just wanted to say HI, I'm using mailman on an Apple Macintosh OS X Server 10.4.5 and absolutely love it. I haven't had any other exposure to mailman so I'm hoping to pick up some good info from here. One thing that I am wondering is if there is away to set mailman to use .shtml files so I can incorporate my ssi files for navigation in it and still maintain the one ssi file? I've looked and haven't found away to do it yet. Hoping someone out there might be able to help me! … [View More]

Mailman attempts to inline attachments of MIME type text/plain
by Jeff DeReus Feb. 24, 2006

Feb. 24, 2006

Is there a way to allow attachments of text/plain without them being added inline in the message post? Would it be possible to have the mailman archive split out the attachment and, for each message, provide a separate link to download the attachment as a separate file?
