Addresses
by billc May 4, 2008

May 4, 2008

I've got a couple questions about addresses: 1) I'm running virtual hosts w/apache. On the mailman/listinfo pages, the address mailman(a)domain2.com is given, though the server (and the only mailman@ address that has been set up so far) is @mydomain.com. Do I need to set up mailman@ addresses for all the other domains that have lists? Can I forward them to mailman(a)mydomain.com, and would that require that I then set up the mailman list to also accept mail for mailman(a)domain2.com, … [View More]

How many bounces
by admin＠evasfamily.com May 4, 2008

May 4, 2008

I understand how to set bounce thresholds, but is there a place to see where indidivual users are at regarding bounces? Let's say I have the threshold set to 5 bounces. Obvioulsy mailman is keeping track of each users number of bounces that are "current". How can I see where each user is at? It seems it would make a nice column addition to the Membership Management table. Dave

misleading description
by Zbigniew Szalbot May 4, 2008

May 4, 2008

Hi all, I wonder if it is possible to change a description which appears on options page when you try to unsubscribe. Suppose you enter your email address at the general list information page. Then the options page gets displayed and you click the Unsubscribe button. There appears a message: The confirmation email has been sent. This is all right if you entered the right email address. But if by mistake you have entered an email address you are not subscribed with, the page still claims … [View More]

no moderator notification
by Rueben May 2, 2008

May 2, 2008

Hi, Moderators to my list do not get notifications that there is a pending message. I entered their email addresses on both the general page and the detail page. As the list owner, I get a notification that there are messages pending, but the moderators do not. The list was existing before I took over, and I only changed the email addresses. This might be completely stupid, but do AOL email addresses work with Mailman? I know... sounds dumb, but after reading the FAQ's and archives I'm … [View More]

Mailman 2.1.9 List Problem
by Bejong, Kay May 2, 2008

May 2, 2008

We are running Mailman 2.1.9 and had a moderated list with 17,000 users which had several issues and I was wondering whether anyone has noticed this behavior: 1. list members were able to reply to all 2. http interface became unusable 3. list members sent Unsubscribe message to all users on the list and it was not filtered as an admin request, even though configured to do so. 4. command lines "hung" and were unresponsive. Eventually after re importing the configuration, we were able to put … [View More]

Permissions issue w/ Apache
by Bill Honneus (honneus) May 1, 2008

May 1, 2008

Hi, I just completed the mailman setup instructions and was able to create a mail list with the command line option and receive an email notification. However, the Apache web browsing part doesn't seem to work as I get a permissions error page when I attempt to browse to "http://<my-mailman-IP-addr>/mailman/create. I have my httpd.conf set up to point the alias to the mailman script folder as such: ScritpAlias /mailman/ "/usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin/" The permissions on each … [View More]

Mail/News duplicates problem
by NFN Smith May 1, 2008

May 1, 2008

I'm not sure if this is a problem with Mailman or INN, but I'll start on the Mailman side. If it's an INN problem, I'll be happy to redirect my question to the appropriate forum. I'm in the process of adding a news/mail gateway to a server that's running Mailman 2.1.9-7 on a Debian 4.0 box. I'm adding INN 2.4.3-1 . Both Mailman and INN are installed from the Debian Stable channel. Where I'm having problems is with messages posted from the news side -- they're gated into Mailman, and … [View More]

Hi, Overview of all ... mailing links points here to the local ip of the server, where all other links point to the right url. How can I change that? Hans -- Hans Gubitz <gubitz(a)netcologne.de>
