Problem with "Tend to pending moderator requests"
by Bob Furber 11 Feb '10

Mailing list name: aresst-exec(a)aresst.org Administrator/Moderator: aresst(a)aresst.org ISP: arvixe.com When I try to change the status of a pending email from "Defer" to "Accept" by checking "Accept" and then clicking "Submit All Data", I get a http error 404 "File not found" and "Oops! This link appears to be broken" showing "mailman adminb aresst-exec_aresst". When I return to the "Tend to pending moderator requests" page, the pending items are still present. In addition, I get an email from aresst-exec-bounces(a)aresst.org (sender: mailman-bounces(a)ant.arvixe.com) telling me: The Aresst-exec(a)aresst.org mailing list has 2 request(s) waiting for your consideration at: http://aresst.org/mailman/admindb/aresst-exec_aresst.org The mailing list is hosted at aresst.org. But, to complicate matters, the aresst.org domain has had its CRECORD and A RECORD altered to redirect http://aresst.org and http://www.aresst.org to another website ..without affecting emails (a_name(a)aresst.org). For instance, to access the CPanel, I must do so through http://alternate_domain.com/cpanel. I wonder if this is the root of the problem ..and, if I can do anything about it? I should mention that I can successfully set up new mailing lists and add subscribers manually using "Membership Management - Mass Subscription". I just am unable to deal with "Tend to pending moderator requests". Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks, Bob

Looks like I've got to get into terminal to make these changes. w On Feb 10, 2010, at 4:50 PM, Mark J Bradakis wrote: > You have to have personalization turned on for user_address to work. > It should be a setting on the non-digest options page, just above the > boxes where you edit the header and footer information. > > mjb. >

Hi all, I have had an old server crash, running Ubuntu Hardy and Mailman 2.1.9. I have setup a new server, running Ubuntu Jaunty and Mailman 2.1.12. Is there a way to import Mailman 2.1.9 files (lists, users, archives, etc ...) to the new 2.1.12 Mailman server ? I have all the content of /var/lib/mailman from the old server. Thanks in advance for any advice. Nicolas Canonne

Hiding sender info query.
by John Fitzsimons 10 Feb '10

Hi, I have a mailing list that is set to "Require approval" for membership. So if people aren't "Members" they cannot post. If I select .. "Hide the sender of a message, replacing it with the list address (Removes From, Sender and Reply-To fields) " (1) ...will all the members still be able to post as before ? Or will it effectively make everyone "anonymous" and as I don't have a member called "anonymous" reject all posts ? (2) If I set the above and "Fred Smith" posted then would the name "Fred Smith" appear anywhere in the email that other list members receive from him ? Can anyone here give me help on either/both questions please ? Ideally I would want list members to know who is posting but not their private email address. I am using a cPanel setup. Regards, John.
