This e-mail has two forwarded messages embedded in it, one from the poster, and another that looks like this: ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: *-request To: Date: Subject: confirm e2a38902a4d73808769e0bd9e848a069010c3181 If you reply to this message, keeping the Subject:… [View More]

Question on hostnames....
by Chris Thompson Nov. 9, 2009

Nov. 9, 2009

Hey everyone! New user of mailman here and having a little trouble figuring out how to change the hostname that Mailman pulls for the urls and other stuff.

Just edited for security reasons. I'd like to change it to where it only reads this: http://example.com/cgi-bin/mailman/… [View More]

Using robots.txt
by Max Pyziur Nov. 9, 2009

Nov. 9, 2009

Greetings Mailman's email lists are visible search engine spiders from http://www.somedomain.com/pipermail/emaillistname/etc However, /pipermail is an alias of /var/mailman/archives/public/ per mailman.conf I've tried placing a basic robots.txt file at /var/mailman/archives/public/ and set permissions to 644. However, my lists still get spidered. Any suggestions on where to place the robots.txt file to prevent spidering? Thanks! Max Pyziur pyz(a)brama.com
