Mailman Installation with Multiple IP Addresses
by Amardeo Sarma July 13, 2009

July 13, 2009

For many years I have been running Mailman with several mailman lists using multiple domains (virtual hosts) on a single server without major issues (Thanks btw for this great and reliable software - hard to imagine living without it). Now I have a problem with a server with multiple IP addresses (FreeBSD 6.3, Mailman 2.1.12, Apache 2.2, Sendmail). When virtual hosts are assigned to *different* IP Addresses, the Mailman Web Interface does not work for any but the virtual hosts assigned to the … [View More]

Rewriting or identifying late bounces
by Stefan Förster July 9, 2009

July 9, 2009

Hello world, some of my list members have a mail address like recipient(a)example.com - nothing special about that. When mail is delivered to their address, their ISPs mail server rewrite the address internally to recipient(a)intern.example.com and try to deliver them to the users mailbox. If for any reason, e.g. quota, this fails, a NDR/DSN is sent with the new name: Received: from mout3.example.com (mout3.example.com [195.4.92.93]) (using TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA (256/256 … [View More]

Unicode in daily digest
by Naresh Cuntoor July 8, 2009

July 8, 2009

Hi, I am an administrator for a mailing list that uses unicode extensively. Mails containing unicode are garbled in daily digest mode. The same mail with unicode is faithfully transmitted in individual email mode (i.e., when a list member signs up to receive mails directly instead of digest mode). Any info would be appreciated. Thanks, Naresh

Non-subscribers defeating the generic non-member action
by Robert Boyd Skipper July 8, 2009

July 8, 2009

I've been running lists for years, and the filtering has been pretty good at blocking posts from non-members. But recently, there have been some leaks, allowing non-member spammers to slip a message onto the list. The first time this happened, it turned out to be due to non-alphanumeric characters at the beginning of email addresses in the From: field. So, I made a regex filter that put a stop to that. But now, it has happened again, and I can't see anything unusual about the emails.… [View More]

Customizing Special Addresses -request, -bounce, etc.
by Lawrence Chan July 7, 2009

July 7, 2009

How can I customize Mailman's special addresses? It seems like it uses listname-request, listname-bounce, etc.. I'd like to use my own. For example, if my listname is list_domain.tld and my virtual and alias mappings are list-request(a)domain.tld to list-request_domain.tld to |/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman request list-request_domain.tld, I want Mailman to respond with list-request(a)domain.tld instead of list_domain.tld(a)domain.tld.

Resetting users to 'mail' [from nomail]
by Bernie Cosell July 6, 2009

July 6, 2009

I had a delivery problem and a bunch of users at one server all got "nomail". I know who they are [list_members --nomail], but I've been looking through bin/* and I don't see exactly how I can set them back to 'mail'. I can do it one-at-a-time via the web interface, but i was wondering if there was some command-line way to do it. Thanks!! /Bernie\ -- Bernie Cosell Fantasy Farm Fibers mailto:bernie@fantasyfarm.com Pearisburg, VA --> Too many people, … [View More]

Newbie question? Maybe not.
by Allen Sullivant July 6, 2009

July 6, 2009

Greetings, I administer a list provided by my organization's hosting service. I didn't have to install anything, just "turn it on" and then set my parameters in the administrative interface. The last 48 hours or so the list simply just does not receive mail or commands, from myself and other list members. "There are no pending requests". I have changed no settings whatsoever from the last working configuration. The "emergency moderation" has been on since Day 1. I have a support ticket … [View More]

July 3, 2009

Hello, folks We experience posted messages hosted with Google never make it to our Mailman. We think it is the ISP spam filter but would like to know whether there is a file or command that we can use to extract from for all blocked senders of all lists? Thank you very much,
