Hello! We have had enough turnover within our non-profit to the point that nobody has permissions to add new groups. We can perform membership and other management functions on the existing groups however are unable to create new ones. We receive a "not authorized" error message when we try. Would someone please contact me at 619-379-6322 and let me know what information is required to have either or password reset or this access given? Thank you!

Sept. 24, 2009

Hi there I am using Mailman -2.1.9-4 amd Postfix 2.6.5-1 on a Red Hat EL 5 box.

Question about Troubleshooting Mailing List Issues
by Emmett Rahl Sept. 24, 2009

Sept. 24, 2009

One of the administrators of our Mailing List (and I also tried it myself) tried to send out a message on one of our lists. The policy on this particular list is that any mailing list member can send out a message as long as it is under 100K in size. After a couple of hours, the message bounced back to him and it said something like "Try again later." I also tried to send a message (I am also an administrator (but am not in charge of the list) and member.) and I haven't gotten any response … [View More]

Digest Headers
by Bob Fishel Sept. 24, 2009

Sept. 24, 2009

So I recently had a member of our list ask that the headers about sending and receiving messages be put at the end of the email, and I happen to think it's a good idea as that is a standard format that people are used to seeing. However my header field is blank, though I do have a custom footer. My question is how can I move this text to the bottom of the email? In case it is unclear I've included the portion in question below. Thanks -Bob Fishel <capdist-announce-request(a)dx.ayw.org> … [View More]

Re: [Mailman-Users] Error when list Moderator deals with pending requests
by Mark Ryan Sept. 24, 2009

Sept. 24, 2009

Following up on my own post, I think I found the problem. One of the subscribers that was added to one of our moderated lists had an email address that wasn't legitimate. The domain name the person submitted was "@domain.s" when it should have been "@domain.us" there (having just one character there certainly won't work!) - the moderator didn't catch it. After I unsubscribed that address from the list, I haven't seen the bug appear again so far.

We've run into an issue when a list moderator takes care of pending requests.what happens is when the moderator takes an action for the request and hits the Submit Data button, it throws the "we hit a bug" message. I looked through the error logs and found this entry which I've copied and pasted below. I'm the owner for all of our lists and I don't encounter this when I take care of the pending requests, it only happens to the moderators. Can anyone give me some insight as to what may be going on?
