Why Not Upgrade to 2.1.8?
by Barry Finkel Aug. 25, 2006

Aug. 25, 2006

> Our Mailman was recently upgraded to 2.1.5. I have seen many posts on this list from people who are running 2.1.5 (or earlier). I am wondering why someone would recently upgrade to 2.1.5 instead of to 2.1.8, which is the current release? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Barry S.

Hi all, We're running a site with a mailman 2.1.5 configuration with 40-50 lists on it, and some lists have a list address as a subscriber to the list.. ie the general@ list might have a bunch of individual addresses and an otherlist@ address also as a member, (and the otherlist@ also contains individual addresses) So, what happens, is that when an email is sent to the general@ list it gets subject modified [General] as normal, but the people on the otherlist@ also get rewritten so they get … [View More]

Re: [Mailman-Users] Message IDs & Security
by Jon Loose Aug. 25, 2006

Aug. 25, 2006

Thanks Brad/Mark for comments. It seems outlook is to blame for the message ids. Re: Security, I will pass back to the list anything I find that's simple enough for me! The potential feature set of 2.2 looks good. Any guesstimates on when this will be coming?(!) Are there plans for 2.2 to be as easy to apply as an upgrade as the 2.1.x releases have been? One further issue: Is it possible to discover who has been invited to join a list but has not yet responded to the invitation email? … [View More]

qmail setup question
by Peter Horst Aug. 25, 2006

Aug. 25, 2006

Hi, I'm trying to set up Mailman on a Fedora Core 5 system running qmail. I'm using the current yum (rpm) package of Mailman. The 2.1 Installation Manual says: "Then make your aliases: .qmail => mailman@...’s letters .qmail-owner => mailman-owner’s letters" I can't parse this - can someone break it down for me? What does "mailman@...'s letters" mean? Thanks, hope this is not too dumb. Peter
