Do you have syslog set up so that you are logging mail.debug to a maillog file? The information in maillog will tell you exactly what's happening with your mail delivery... what's being delivered and what isn't and why. This would be the most helpful thing to check at this point. If you aren't syslogging the mail stuff you should start immediately. It's invaluable for troubleshooting. -- We've Got Your Name @ www.mail.com!!! Get a FREE E-mail Account Today - Choose From 100+ Domains

Cleaning up archive that aren't in mbox format?
by Dennis Carr Sept. 5, 2007

Sept. 5, 2007

My list server, as near as I can tell, does not appear to be parsing out from mbox format. (To backtrack, early last month, I had asked the list for help on correctly parsing out the From information. It is apparently doing this correctly, as in putting the > in front of the From.) Now, though, I have the 2007-July file that has the broken messages still in here. In short, did I run the archiver correctly? Or for that matter, where should I be looking/running this file/whatever? -Dennis Carr

Two questions
by Michael Anderson Sept. 5, 2007

Sept. 5, 2007

1. Is there a way to mass unsubscribe all the members of a 5k list? 2. I need to send a broadcast message to about 4K addresses. Just a one-time announcement. Should I use Mailman for this? I'm not sure how to set up a broadcast-only list. Thanks! MA

Sept. 5, 2007

We have several mailing lists running on our list server. I am looking for a script that will extract the number of active users in each list. Is there such a utility? -- -- B.G. Mahesh

Re: [Mailman-Users] Another twist on Error: Unknown virtual host

This worked... in cases like mine you have to be sure not to use the add_virtualhost command but instead edit the mm_cfg.py file by hand. -- We've Got Your Name @ www.mail.com!!!
