Moderation question
by Taylor, Marc June 11, 2010

June 11, 2010

Hello All, I am using Mailman 2.1.9 in Ubuntu 8.0.4 LTS. In Mailman 2.0.x there was a handy field called posters where you could use the command line or the web interface to populate it. I see in Mailman 2.1.x that the poster's field has been removed and one can set individual users to be moderated or not moderated by checking or unchecking a button in the membership web page and also by setting the default setting in /etc/mailman/mm_cfg.py to one or the other. Question: Is there a way to set the moderation flag for an individual member via the command line? Nothing pops out that is obvious to me. Thanks! Marc Taylor

Subscribing people + setting nomail option
by Eli Barzilay June 11, 2010

June 11, 2010

I have a script which I use to interact with mailman to approve messages that are held for moderation -- it's conveniently shows me each message and asks what to do with it, which I find way more convenient than clicking my way around the html interface. One thing that keeps happenning is that people who are not on the list will post on it (some from a google group mirror, some from mailman, and some just use the mail from the web page). For that, I made it possible to approve the post and send a message to the sender telling them about it, asking them to subscribe, and I mention the no-mail option that they can use. The problem is that this is very ineffective. Is there some easy way to subscribe people and set the no-mail option in one quick shot? This way I can have my script tell them that if they keep posting without subscribing then I'll do it for them, with an explanation of the few implications (that most people won't care about anyway). -- ((lambda (x) (x x)) (lambda (x) (x x))) Eli Barzilay: http://barzilay.org/ Maze is Life!

HTML templates
by Eli Barzilay June 11, 2010

June 11, 2010

I was looking at the "Confirm subscription request" and "Subscription request confirmed" pages -- there's no way to customize them too, right? Is there at least some way to have my own header used? (Without that, having a very customized look means that these pages stick like a sore thumb...) -- ((lambda (x) (x x)) (lambda (x) (x x))) Eli Barzilay: http://barzilay.org/ Maze is Life!

Including sender's email address in footer of email
by herbmankr-mailman＠yahoo.co.uk June 10, 2010

June 10, 2010

I'd like to try to set up the footer of the list I manage so that people can click a link if they want to reply to the sender only, rather than the whole list. Is there a way to do this? I read somewhere something about switching on personalisation, which I have done, but I've not got any further than that. Thanks pachmarhi

Require approval for new requests
by Schwartz, Robert - IS June 10, 2010

June 10, 2010

How do you make the List Monitor require approval before a new request for access can be granted. It does not seem to work the way I thought. The user gets a confirmation email and they can get access without the List Monitor approving it. Robert P. Schwartz CAS, Inc.

Trouble Subscribing - You must supply a valid email address Error
by Wang, Mary Y June 10, 2010

June 10, 2010

Hi, I recently migrated Mailman to another server. One user reported that he went to subscription page to subscribe a mail list, he entered a valid email address , picked a password and hit the Subscribe button, the page returned 'You must supply a valid email address'. I tried to subscribe the list myself and got the same error. I took a look at the error log, and it said "Jun 10 06:21:14 2010 (30782) No such list "_images":". Do you have any ideas why I got that error? Maybe I missed something during the migration? I'm running on Mailman 2.1.9. Please advise. Mary

Announcement: Voting and RSS for mailman (Vote-MM)
by Cesar Fernandez Gago June 10, 2010

June 10, 2010

Hello, Vote-MM project has just been released. It aims to improve current Mailman mailing lists with some Web 2.0 time-saving functionalities (RSS, voting-capabilities..): * It adds support for RSS to Mailman (patch is provided) * Mail footer is modified to include voting links * A new webapp for reading mail/voting is provided (to be released soon..) * A Mozilla Thunderbird plug-in is also provided, so users can vote and see voting information[1] The system works in this way: Mailman sends modified mails including footer links to users, and generates an RSS feed. A web application fetches that RSS feed and the user votes, and Thunderbird displays those votes. You have all the information related with this project at http://votemm.libresoft.es/votemm/ Greetings, [1] http://votemm.libresoft.es/thun_plugin/

by Jeff Johnson June 9, 2010

June 9, 2010

Using Mailman v2.1.13 Is it possible to insertt the 'Member Name' within the body of the welcome message? I haven't been able to find a variable that works, I've tried: %(user)s %(username)s %(user_address)s These all come through as code, not as the subscriber's full name. Thanks !
