Issues with mailman starting.
by ogre＠rpg-vault.net June 6, 2006

June 6, 2006

I am currently running mailman in a plesk enviroment. This is the first attempt that I have made to use it on the system. However I noticed that it was not working. Deeper investigation showed me that mailman was not even loading. Checking the error logs I found that following: Jun 05 16:23:57 2006 mailmanctl(14382): Traceback (most recent call last): Jun 05 16:23:57 2006 mailmanctl(14382): File "./mailmanctl", line 597, in ?

Probably RTFM
by Chris Wright June 6, 2006

June 6, 2006

I've read through all the FAQs I can find - and discovered several bits of "good advice" - but still haven't done it... My Mailman admin pages all lack the logos, mailman.jpg etc. Some advice tells me to put it in the Apache default icons folder (in my case, I think that's /usr/share/apache2/icons/) - and I am sure that may be true for (eg) this mailman-users list, which calls for: <img src="/icons/mailman.jpg"> However the pages created by my installation say: <img src="/… [View More]

Added email address to "posters" in list config, but user's email must be approved each time, why?
by Kenneth A. Wolcott June 5, 2006

June 5, 2006

Hi; I added a user's email address to the "posters" variable in the specific list config file, but still the user's email must be approved each time. Why is this? Do I need to shutdown and restart Mailman for the config changes to take effect? I then subscribed the user. Still had to manually approve email messages. I then unsubscribed the user. I looked at the FAQ and spent some time in the email archives and looked at the manual and even looked at python code -- still … [View More]

Virtual Domain / Postfix
by Eduardo Meyer June 5, 2006

June 5, 2006

Hello, I am willing to configure Virtual Domains in Postfix, and followed documentation available at: http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/mailman-install/postfix-virtual.html Other than correctly configuring Postfix and mm_cfg.py with POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = pointing all my virtual domains, I also added add_virtualhost('www.XX.domain', 'XX.domain') To mm_cfg.py after I tried without it. And in both cases (with and without) I didn't work. When I try to add a list which already … [View More]

June 5, 2006

We're new to mailman, which we are testing on our own departmental staff list prior to wider roll-out at the univeristy. System: Fedora Core 5 Mailman 2.1.8 (RPM: mailman-2.1.8-0.FC5.1) sendmail 8.13.6 (RPM: sendmail-8.13.6-0.FC5.1) On the test list for our staff (89 members), some of the emails are failing, while others succeed. On a failure email: 1. it only reaches 59 (out of 89) recipients; 2. it loses the hidden headers ("Received:" etc.) prior to the Mailman expansion; 3. … [View More]

Second request - Code edit question.
by 7D June 5, 2006

June 5, 2006

So I ask a TECHNICAL question on the developers list which in the sign up for these lists says if for technical questions, and I am promptly told to put the question on the users list which is non-technical. OK so now I am asking here (in the wrong place by y'alls descriptions) how to do something. Sorry if I sound a little frustrated, but had the descriptions of the lists not been written so poorly I would probably have an answer by now. ANYWAY... Can someone PLEASE help me with editing … [View More]

I would like to move the pipermail archives to a different host then the main Mailman system. Specifically for better archive searching performance with htdig. Is this possible? -Jim P.

show senders address
by todd＠simplyjew.com June 4, 2006

June 4, 2006

Hi. I am trying to set my list up so that the senders address appears in the header. Ideally, the list users should see who sent the email. The reply should still direct the message back to the list, but like I said, the user can see who sent the message as well. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Todd

Bounced messages?
by Webmaster June 3, 2006

June 3, 2006

Is there a way to see what messages bounce? I would find it helpful to keep a mailing list up to date to know which messages don't get through. ------------------------------------------------------- Steven Weyhrich <IX0YE>--< Go Dogs! Webmaster http://www.GoDogsOmaha.org
