Command line modification of user options?
by Jim Norton May 8, 2008

May 8, 2008

Hello all, I run a large list and have a need to turn of the no-mail by-bounce setting from a large number of subscribers. Is there an easy way to do this from the command-line? Or perhaps somebody has a script? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jim Norton "The starting point of all achievement is desire. Keep this constantly in mind.

More clearly, I guess I am hoping to integrate MM with other applications to work as a contact manager, to track calls, letters, emails, for my growing contact list. Suggestions? -- "If you can't afford Prevention now, how will you afford … [View More]

by Chris Waltham May 8, 2008

May 8, 2008

A couple of weeks ago our Mailman 2.0 server crashed (a physical problem, it wasn't Mailman's fault!) and we had to upgrade to 2.1 in a real hurry. As a result, I had to copy the entire ~mailman/data directory... which may not have been such a good idea: [mailman@list ~/data]$ ls -al | wc -l 40054 There are a _lot_ of files prefixed with "heldmsg-" in the data directory, as you can see. There are entries all the way back to 2005, in fact! I realize that I'm going to have to deal … [View More]

Mail can be sent back as undeliverable for any number of reasons. If you had included one of the rejection messages, maybe we could have made some educated … [View More]
