by liuhao Nov. 9, 2009

Nov. 9, 2009

Dear Mailman, I am currently maintain the maillist for *ecfs.com.au*. we are now facing a issue that, some members want to unsubscribe from the mail list, and they just reply the mails we sent to them, meanwhile the email they replied went to every members' mail account on the list. How could we stop this? Thank you very much. Cheers! -- Darren, LIU HAO

Hi All! I need to put an easy "unsubscribe" link at the bottom of the newsletter that goes to my mailing list. Where should I link it to? An email address, or to a web page? Thanks, Siren E

Settings for list addresses
by Anne Anderson Nov. 9, 2009

Nov. 9, 2009

Hello Mailman folks - We are running Mailman 2.1.9 on Linux SLES 10. The name of this server is mail.westmont.edu, so in mm_cfg.py we have these settings: DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN = 'http://%s/mailman/' DEFAULT_NNTP_HOST = 'mail.westmont.edu' DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'mail.westmont.edu' DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'mail.westmont.edu' This works fine for URLs to the administrative or user websites, but we get problems when people try to use the address links displayed on the website (i.e. on the listinfo page)… [View More]

by b19141＠anl.gov Nov. 6, 2009

Nov. 6, 2009

My Mailman 2.1.12 server was flagged with a low-risk vulnerability: 42057 Web Server Allows Password Auto-Completion and I cannot tell from the description what URLs have this vulnerability, nor do I know how to correct it.

GNU Mailman roadmap
by Barry Warsaw Nov. 2, 2009

Nov. 2, 2009

As you know, Mailman 2.1 has long been in maintenance-only mode. Mailman 2.2 was where we were going to add new features and update the user interface, without changing the basic model. Mailman 3 was where we were going to fix the model and modernize the architecture to allow for better embedded use. Mark has been doing an incredible job fixing Mailman 2.1, and forward porting these fixes to Mailman 2.2. I have been working on Mailman 3 and have released several alphas. The … [View More]

New list bounces postings, cannot post
by Thomas Gramstad Nov. 1, 2009

Nov. 1, 2009

Hi, A new list in my Mailman installation refuses to let postings from a subscriber and list administrator through (not sure if this applies to all posters -- the list is new), and bounces the postings instead. Below is the error message -- unfortunately in Norwegian -- maybe someone recognizes the structure of the problem or has any suggestions or tips? (The other, old lists at the server work just fine.)
