I have tried "nomail" and "ack" back and forth with no problems.

Hi, Has anybody run into a problem where the "unsub" check-box + Submit Your Changes in the Membership List does not work? Mass Removal works fine. Thank you, Vladimir

mailman across firewall
by E Kogler 09 Nov '12

09 Nov '12

Hello, my task is to establish access to mailman across a firewall. The configuration looks (of course ;-) ) like that: INTERNET---FW--INTERNAL On the Firewall there is a mail-relay with postfix installed, on the Internal server the courier-mta does the job. I'm wondering how to cross the firewall without much work for me as the sysadmin. What I came up with is to have each list with all its addresses on the valid recipients list on the mail-relay but it seems to me a little bit complicated because I'm planning to have a few lists running on the internal server. The other solution which came to my mind is to have mailman on the FW and tweaking the mail-relay. Is there a better way doing this ? Edgar

Why is Mailman still sending bounce messages?
by Josh Berkus 08 Nov '12

08 Nov '12

Folks, 1) I set bounce_you_are_disabled_warnings=0 2) Using a withlist script, I removed all list members with any bounce stats at all. Yet, when I checked today, there were 98 outgoing bounce warnings (undeliverable) in the queue. Huh? -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com

Mailman continues to deliver to deleted list
by Josh Berkus 07 Nov '12

07 Nov '12

Folks, I deleted a mailing list using rmlist. However, mailman continues to send out messages to the recipients on this list, and I can't seem to make it stop. There's ~~ 3000 pending deliveries, so I'd really rather that they not go out. For now mailman is shut down. How do I clean out its pending messages queue entirely? -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com

suppress duplicate when posting addressed to list and its alias name
by Sahil Tandon 07 Nov '12

07 Nov '12

Many of our lists have full addresses in the form of 'foo-bar(a)baz.org', with corresponding alias names 'bar(a)baz.org'. When someone sends a message To:foo-bar@baz.org and also Cc:bar@baz.org, his or her MUA sends two separate messages to the list which transmits these duplicates to list members. However, only one copy makes it to the pipermail HTML archives. Is there a Mailman way to activate, in the context of delivery, the same duplicate suppression that occurs when archiving? If not, I will have to do this based on Message-IDs on input at the MTA, but I would prefer to do it via the mailing list manager if this is already possible. Thanks, -- Sahil Tandon

Mailman archive - archive date does not match the date the message was posted
by Anthony Wilson (Jaf) 06 Nov '12

06 Nov '12

There is an existing Mailman list with an archive which needs to be moved to a different server, however it seems that the archive is a bit messed up. I assume that the list was set up in 2006, but for some reason there is a 2002 archive, and all of the posts in there seem to have been posted in 2012. It's a public archive so I assume there's no harm in posting a link to it - https://secure.neap.net/pipermail/montrealers/. Is there some way to fix this?

Adding custom header
by Eric Smith 06 Nov '12

06 Nov '12

I want to receive all mail relating to lists that I create and manage into my inbox. Because there are arbitrary list names and also numerous domains, I think that the best way is for all list mail to carry an identifying mail header. Having searched the archives, I understand I should edit the source. I am thinking like appending a tag to an existing header like List-Id: Is this giving the corre t file to edit. $ find /usr/lib/mailman -type f -exec grep -l List-Id {} \; /usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/CookHeaders.py Any caveats, guidelines, bearing in mind this: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2011-December/072595.html -- Eric Smith

withlist docs?
by Josh Berkus 05 Nov '12

05 Nov '12

Folks, I'd like to use withlist more to troubleshoot certain issues, but I can't find any documentation on the objects and methods available in the withlist context. Do such docs exist somewhere? For example, I'd like to figure out how to set all addresses in a certain domain nomail. But I can't figure out: - what the parameters and outputs of getDeliveryStatusMembers are - what the method is to set someone nomail -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com
