Oddity with list_members
by Bernie Cosell Jan. 7, 2010

Jan. 7, 2010

I'm having some trouble with list_members. I do a list and I see several entries that don't show up in the GUI "Membership List" listings. And the other way around: I got a complaint from a former list member that they were still receiving messages, but list_members did *NOT* list them... but going into the GUI the member was there [and I unsubbed him from the gui]. That got me to checking and I discovered thatAnother odd anomaly: the list_members list is almost entirely in … [View More]

Removal of attachments causes problems
by Ralf Hildebrandt Jan. 6, 2010

Jan. 6, 2010

I have a list where the attachments are removed and stored on the mailman server itself. This works like a charm, but SOME image attachments of the type: image/pjpeg are stored as "attachment.bin" instead of "attachment.jpg" Why? Example below: -------------- nächster Teil -------------- Ein Dateianhang mit Binärdaten wurde abgetrennt... Dateiname : Foto0136.jpg Dateityp : image/pjpeg Dateigröße : 139142 bytes Beschreibung: Foto0136.jpg URL : <http://mailman.charite.de/… [View More]

by Christus Publishing Jan. 6, 2010

Jan. 6, 2010

To whom it may concern, We have set-up but the e-mails coming into the box are not received in the box or left in the e-mail box --- they are just forwarded to the intended recipients. What do we have to do to make sure the e-mails coming in stay in the box? Thanks, peter -- Peter J.

duplicate messages
by Ryan Stasel Jan. 6, 2010

Jan. 6, 2010

All, I did some searching and don't seem to be able to find anything in the archives related to this, so... I previously was running a series of lists on a Mac OS 10.4 Server, which I believe runs Mailman 2.1.3. And there were no real problems with duplicate messages. I have just now updated to 10.6.2, which runs Mailman 2.1.12rc1, and Dovecot (which I wouldn't think would impact anything). And yeah, already had to patch for the admindb error. Anyway, the problem is, I have several … [View More]

moving mailman lists to new server, same domain name
by Andrew Watson Jan. 5, 2010

Jan. 5, 2010

I am moving a number of lists to a new server. Eventually the new server will have the same domain name as the old, so I don't think I need to change urls. I have read the FAQs, and lots of emails on this list, and I think I know what to do, but would like to be sure I am not missing something. I have installed mailman 2.10 on the new server, and now plan to move the lists and archives. /.migrate contains copies of files from the old server on the new server. The commands I plan (on the new … [View More]

odd problem with mailman holding mail in outgoing queue
by Alan McKay Jan. 4, 2010

Jan. 4, 2010

Hey folks, I've been running a FreeBSD / Postfix / Mailman list server for some 7 or 8 years now. The last time I updated FreeBSD was about 3 years ago so it is only at 6.0. That was also the last time I updated Postfix and Mailman until this recent spat of problems which prompted me to upgrade both to the latest stable versions (as of yesterday). So 2.1.13 in the case of Mailman. Things have been running fine on this server for years with nary an issue. I have not made any changes … [View More]recently, so it was quite troublesome when this problem started a few days ago. My lists started experiencing 10 and 12 hour delays between mail coming in, and going back out again. If I look at message headers I can see Postfix gets the message, then hands off to mailman, then it sits there for hours on end, and finally gets sent out. I should mention that this is a pretty lightly loaded system. The lists are basically personal hobby lists - the busiest of which gets maybe 100 to 200 emails a day. It is also a web server but traffic is pretty light. Load average is usually under 1. I spent a good 12 to 14 hours yesterday looking into this - went through some of the archives for this list, as well as the FAQ wiki. Found a few similar problems but nothing just the same. I look in the Mailman logs dir. Nothing really onerous that I see. I look in smtp and see what looks like normal processing. e.g. one of my lists looks like it had a number of messages just a few minutes ago, but I have not seen them yet where normally I would expect to see them almost instantly.

I've used this as an opportunity to weed out most of them, but there are still messages that had been queued up for them so I'm not sure how long it will take those to fail delivery. For example if I "tail -10000" (ten thousand) that file and grep out the 5 main bogus email addresses, I get one single line : Jan 04 12:07:50 2010 (50034) Low level smtp error: (4, 'Interrupted system call'), msgid: <b100e8e71001021626l470dc99fmcea7aceba072823b(a)mail.gmail.com> But i have been unable to find out what this means. But given that I only see it once I am not too worried about it really. Can someone tell me where to look as to why stuff is getting backed up in the outgoing queue? -- “Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV” - Michael Pollan, author of "In Defense of Food" [View Less]

Mailman < > forum ?
by John Fitzsimons Jan. 4, 2010

Jan. 4, 2010

Hi, Are there currently *any* web forum(s) that enable forum/mailman mirroring ? In other words a Mailman email going to a web forum and vica versa ? I believe that something like this could work with phpbb2 but not the current release. Can anyone help please ? Regards, John.
