withlist docs?
by Josh Berkus 06 Nov '12

06 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

Delete all members with nomail[B]
by Josh Berkus 05 Nov '12

05 Nov '12

Howdy, I have a mailman list with 3200 members, about 900 of which are now nomail[B] from bounces. I'd like to know how to purge all the nomail[B] members from the list -- without spending an entire day doing it through the GUI. -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com

by Khalil Abbas 04 Nov '12

Hello .. This is the second time that happens with me and I changed the server the first time.. I’ve been using my lists for months without any problems, I post to all lists from one address –which is moderated- and I accept all messages manually from the web admin.. but then after sending to the lists, the messages does not appear waiting for moderation although maillogs show that they’ve been delivered to the lists addresses.. also I noticed a warning that I used to see when thing were working fine, I don’t know if it’s the cause of the issue.. the mail log is below.. please advise.. Thanks..

Login to private archive
by Michael 02 Nov '12

02 Nov '12

Hello mailman-users, I am new to mailman and ran into a problem with my fresh 2.1.13 installation of mailman. My first created list is defined with private option for archive, so list members have to login before they can view the archive. The login for users works well on the edit profile page, but not on the archive page. After entering the login credencials I receive a 301 redirect to the archive page. I consider there should be the archive shown now. Instead there is only the login form again. Taking a look at the cookies in the browser I can see that there has no cookie been set. Do you have any idea about this problem? Regards from Augsburg, Germany, Michael

DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST
by Norbert Aschendorff 02 Nov '12

02 Nov '12

Hi all, I wanted to figure out which effect DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST has but I didn't have much success. The only place where I found this variable was add_virtualhost() in mailman-install.pdf and in Defaults.py. My question: Does DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST have an effect on the mailman instance when I am not using (e.g. Postfix) virtual hosts? Does it have an effect _when_ I'm using virtual domains? And if yes, which? Or should it always be set to a sensible value? Does it influence to which hostname the "aliases" file belongs? And if yes, does that make sense? I ask because when I change the value of DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST, nothing happens except of some address changes on the web interface. Sending mails to the lists works without any problems. I'm pretty confused :) Norbert
