Altering the URL for admin pages?
by Dennis Carr July 9, 2006

July 9, 2006

OK, I have a small number of MLs, here, but there's been a slight change in URL scheme to the point where http://chez-vrolet.net no longer resolves correctly (it must now be http://www.chez-vrolet.net). Problem is, though, on my admin pages, everything still wants to go to http://chez-vrolet.net/url/to/admin/etc. Where do I make the change to this behavior? -Dennis

Blocking entire domains
by Martin Dennett (Gmail) July 8, 2006

July 8, 2006

Probably in common with most list admins, I get lots of requests to join from spam addresses. A lot of these seem to be from the same domain name for example joe.bloggs(a)123abc.com. How do I add an entry into the banned members list which would stop all 123abc.com members joining - in such a way that I would never see the request and therefore have to action it? Rgds MD

List Using Old Membership List
by David Andrews July 7, 2006

July 7, 2006

I run Mailman 2.1.6 on a sun Cobalt RAQ 550 server. There are about 100 lists with memberships ranging from 50 to 350. On several occasions, several of the lists seem to have reverted to using membership lists from the past. People who had unsubscribed as much as two years ago, were suddenly subscribed again. Is this possible? If so, how does it happen, and how can it be prevented? finally, my UPS has gone bad, and is in the process of being replaced, so the server has had some … [View More]

Hi All We are using Mailman 2.1.5 on RaQ550 Kernel 2.4.19C12_V-1. When we mail the list with an attached zip file the extension is changed to bin in the list archive. The list members receive a zip file with the correct extension. Is there a fix for this. Thanks in advance Michael Barnard michael(a)acrobat-technology.com

Weird mailing list issues
by Lawrence Bowie July 7, 2006

July 7, 2006

I have a mailing list that will not accept a specific HTML message from a subscribing user. It will accept other messages but not this particular. I tested the message against a test list and the message posted just fine. So, I can probably conclude that there is something wrong with that particular list. Is that correct? Any ideas? Will rebuilding the archives help? Thanks, LDB

Capital Letter (first letter) Maillist Issue
by Brian Oliver July 6, 2006

July 6, 2006

Here is my issue. I have a maillist named itservices(a)mailman.whatever.org when I post to the list nothing happens. But when I capitalize the "I" in itservices to Itservices(a)mailman.whatever.org the message goes through. I have tried tweaking the listname in the general settings page, and I even deleted the list and recreated it. Both ways produces the same results. All of my other mailists (about 75 of them) appear to work if the first letter is capitalized or not. Does anyone … [View More]
