improper shutdown causes mailman not to start?
by Zbigniew Szalbot 27 Feb '08

27 Feb '08

Hello, I rebooted my machine today and mailman wouldn't start. Feb 27 06:46:56 2008 mailmanctl(692): The master qrunner lock could not be acquired. It appears as though there is a stale master qrunner lock. Try re-running mailmanctl with the -s flag. Now could the reason be that mailman startup script did not have the -s flag? mailman_start() { /usr/local/mailman/bin/mailmanctl -q start } I removed it recently because I was having problem with two instances of mailman at startup. But I then realized I had two different scripts to start mailman so I removed one. I did not however change the main (and now only) startup script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ to have the -s flag included. Many thanks! -- Zbigniew Szalbot

Specify different SMTP server
by Andrew Hodgson 26 Feb '08

26 Feb '08

Hi, Reading previous emails seem to suggest I can make Mailman output to a different SMTP server by changing the options in the configuration files. I would quite like to do this, as currently Mailman is on a server which doesn't do much email, and the Exim on that machine outputs to the destination SMTP server in any case. My only question is: Is this a common deployment, and what happens if the destination SMTP server is down? Thanks. Andrew.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Delete message in large mbox
by Barry Finkel 26 Feb '08

26 Feb '08

> I tried to use vim, but it's a too long file to manage (I don't know how > to do, too). I have not had as chance to read this entire thread from the weekend, so maybe what I have to say has already been said. I once had to processs a 1+Gb mbox file where there had been a mail loop, which caused the mbox file to grow in size. The owner wanted to save all of the non-looping mail in the mbox. I ended up using head, tail, grep, and a few other Unix utilities to find the wanted mail and extract it into a new mbox file. It would have been easier to use vi or vim, but the file was too large. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Barry S.

Thanks for that info, Mark. Any idea of how close (or far away) the 3.0 release is? Jan C. ----- Original Message ---- From: Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> To: Jan Cohen <najnehoc(a)yahoo.com>; mailman-users(a)python.org Sent: Monday, February 25, 2008 8:17:48 PM Subject: Re: [Mailman-Users] Introduction, and another archive question In the current Mailman archiving system and architecture, it's just not possible for the mail delivery process to know the id of the message in the archive. There will be improvement in the Mailman 3.0 time frame.
