Is There a Hack to Add Author Confirmation of Messages?
by Conrad Richter Nov. 10, 2009

Nov. 10, 2009

I need to move a LISTSERV list to a new listserver. The main hurdle to moving to Mailman is the fact that Mailman lacks the ability for authors to confirm their own messages. The principle is similar to the way Mailman confirms new subscribers, with a web-based message confirmation link emailed to the subscriber. Is there a hack somewhere for adding this confirmation feature for messages? The fact that Mailman already has an email confirmation ability for subscriptions built-in suggests to me … [View More]

Customizing Mailman
by Kim Huff Nov. 10, 2009

Nov. 10, 2009

Hello everyone, My name is Kim Huff and I am new to the list. I have been using Mailman for some time now but I know that I have barely tapped its full potential. I have my own dedicated server and on there I have a few of my clients using the Mailman service. Most of them would like to offer a way for their possibly subscribers the ability to sign-up on line. We want to be very careful about this because we want to make sure people that do not belong to the organization can sign up. … [View More]

by Joe Ruffolo Nov. 10, 2009

I want my list members to be able to respond back to the original poster. So when they hit reply the actually reply back to the person who posted the message. How do I do this? I've tried changing all the settings in the admin interface but nothing seems to work. The reply to is always blank-bounces(a)mylist.com. How do I make the reply to be the sender of the email? Thanks, Joe

Can't post with thunderbird
by Johannes Wienke Nov. 9, 2009

Nov. 9, 2009

Hi, I got a strange problem with a mailman mailing list hosted at kde.org. I'm registered at that list and also got access to the admin interface. The problem is that if I post a message with thunderbird it gets into the archive but isn't delivered to the subscribers of the list, including myself. This is independent of the smtp server or account I use for that list. If I post a message with any other mail client (gmx web interface, kmail) everything works as expected. Has anyone got an … [View More]

Is there a way to allow messages from non-members to go to a list without any moderation?
by Deb Seidman Nov. 9, 2009

Nov. 9, 2009

Hostgator uses mailman to provide mailing list features. So I used it to set up several lists and started playing with them. The problem is that I really am looking for the lists to work as a multiple destination alias (which hostgator doesn¹t appear to support) rather than a real list. I just want a simple way to have certain email address automatically route to several other emails at the same time. What I got instead is a situation where I will send out an email to the list only to get back … [View More]

Can't get off a list.
by Allison Nov. 9, 2009

Nov. 9, 2009

Years ago, I was subscribed to an email list. Since then, the owner lost the domain, but each month I still get a user name and password reminder. I'd love to unsubscribe, but the domain is no longer registered, therefore email and links do not work. I just want to stop getting the reminders from this dead list. I was unable to find a solution on your website, nor to I wish to be a part of a mailing list just to get off of a mailing list. Please advise. Thank you, Allison Cleveland … [View More]

by Kuntz, Taina M. Nov. 9, 2009

I am the List Administrator for a couple of mailing lists. I am unable to get into the system. I'm not sure if I typed my password incorrectly too many times or if I've forgotten my password. Is it possible to get my password reset? Thanks! Taina (tkuntz(a)purdue.edu) Taina M.
