mailman question concerning member limit
by Frank Caltabiano March 15, 2011

March 15, 2011

I have looked around and didn't find a definitive answer to my question either in the FAQ's or web search. I am maintaining a list using Mailman v2.1.12 and Windows 7. I find that I can only have 100 users to my list. Mailman will not let me enter more than 100 users into it. From what I have read, it is possible to have many more users than that. I just don't know what to do or how to make the number bigger. I would greatly appreciate if I could get some help on this matter. … [View More]

Bounce Question
by Dennis Putnam March 15, 2011

March 15, 2011

Due to some long time configuration issues, which have now been resolved, I think was missing some list events. Now I have to play catchup. I am not sure how bounce processing works. Lets assume that a list member's email address goes bad. Exactly what happens to the bounced message and how does the list owner get notified? Assuming the owner missed those notifications, how can (s)he tell which users have invalid addresses? Thanks.

Questions about current/future functionality
by Tanstaafl March 14, 2011

March 14, 2011

Hello, There is currently another (this is probably the 3rd or 4th) discussion going on right now on the tdf-discuss list (tdf = The Document Foundation, which is hosting all of the libreoffice lists) about issues with their list infrastructure... They are currently using mlmmj, and have said there were very specific reasons they decided not to use mailman, namely: 1. The problem with virtual hosting and lists with the same name for different vhosts. This is one of their biggest reasons. I … [View More]

AV/AS on lists
by Andrew Hodgson March 13, 2011

March 13, 2011

Hi, What is the best practise for doing AV/AS on lists? I do strip out attachments which works well enough, but we are getting some spam messages on the list which point people at dodgy sites etc., usually through subscribed addresses which have been hijacked. I am worried that by installing SpamAssassin on the list that it will reject good mail, and be yet another place to look for issues. Thoughts? Andrew.

Using Mailman to manage a voting process?
by Peter Hitchmough (Twokan) March 12, 2011

March 12, 2011

Greetings Mailmen - Please can anyone advise me on the suitability of Mailman (and variants) for the following use? I am investigating approaches to manage a lightweight process to approve documents for a shortlist. This process takes place several times a year and has 20-30 interested parties and 1 administrator. A mailing list, particularly managed via Mailman, appeals to me. I have glanced briefly at the Vote-MM add-in. Mailing lists are often used to review things for publication … [View More]
