by Ralph Oser Sept. 4, 2006

Sept. 4, 2006

Happy Labor Day - Is it possible to tweak the individual settings on our 60+ MM lists at one time? Our site runs cPanel to provide us admin access to all our website functions, including access to individual MM lists via each lists admin panel. It sure would be nice not to have to log into each list and make the changes one..by...one. Any suggestions? Thanks, R Ralph C.

Date for Posts - How is it decided?
by Drew Tenenholz Sept. 4, 2006

Sept. 4, 2006

Folks -- What is the 'official' date for a post? I am the admin for a small, moderated where the following seems to be happening: 1) The daily digest lists several posts from yesterday/early toady and has a delivery date of 'today'. 2) The message archive can be used to show the exact day the message was posted (today or yesterday). 3) Individual posts are being received with delivery dates exactly ONE MONTH in the FUTURE! Is this a Mailman setting, or is could it be the moderator has … [View More]

French Accented Characters become "?"
by BdF Sept. 3, 2006

Sept. 3, 2006

Hi there, We run a 400 user mailing list (www.lutecium.org) with Mailman 2.1.8-2, on Linux (Debian) Kernel 2.6.16-2. The main language is French, but our users also use English, Spanish and Portuguese. Some of our subscribers have complained about receiving the list's emails with ALL the French accented characters replaced by "?", which obviously makes reading difficult, if not ambiguous. The charset used by the original sender does not seem to matter (see examples below after my signature). … [View More]Further, they insist that this happens ONLY on emails received from our discussion list. I have performed the following test: -email from me in both TXT and HTML (with French accented characters àèéïóùê) directly to user(s): no modifications. -(same) email from me in both TXT and HTML (with French accented characters àèéïóùê)to the subscription list: user(s) receive it with all accented characters replaced by "?". Trawling the Mailman's archives, I have not found something referring specifically to this issue, although I have seen emails from people having problem with German and Japanese characters. So: -is this a known issue? -If not, is it a user or a Mailman issue? -If a user issue, does it take place on sending (when being composed) or on receiving (when being read)? -If a Mailman issue, what settings should be changed?

Mailman working, but very slow delivery of posted mails
by Mal Sept. 3, 2006

Sept. 3, 2006

Hello, I am running mailman / postfix on Ubuntu 6.06 (using apt-get latest standard versions) I have everything working correctly, except that when people send mails to the list, it takes on average one hour to send the mails out to subscribers!! The volume is only small now, as we are testing with only three people.. I have searched this list, but can not find an answer for slow delivery times on systems where mail volume is very low. If you have a clue what I could be missing, I would … [View More]

config_list doesn't copy the HTML forthe public HTML pages
by Ken Winter Sept. 3, 2006

Sept. 3, 2006

Thanks to Mark and others for getting me unstuck. All is well, except for one thing: The config_list utility doesn't include the "public HTML pages" (most importantly, the "General List Information Page") as part of the configuration that it copies from one list to another. This provokes three questions: 1. Is there some way to get config_list to do this? 2. Or is there some other utility that does it? 3. Or is there some easier way to do it that opening the "source" and "target" lists in … [View More]

Just archives
by David Dyer-Bennet Sept. 3, 2006

Sept. 3, 2006

I've got a mailing list running successfully in Mailman, formerly on my own server, now being hosted at Dreamhost. A peculiarity of their implementation is that I don't have access to the archive files or any of the other mailman-specific directories; or apparently to the executables either (I haven't looked really hard, or asked; it's not key to my question). I've also got old archives of the mailing list, both old ezmlm archives, and from a more recent incarnation a large mbox file … [View More]
