Unsubscribed members still getting emails.
by Colin 14 Mar '14

14 Mar '14

I have got a problem that has suddenly arisen. Three members left my mailing list over a year ago and they stopped getting messages. Suddenly last week all 3 started getting emails again. Their email addresses are not in the membership list. I have not made any changes to the list. Any suggestions? I can't find anything in the FAQ or on Google about something like this. -- Regards Colin

add mailto: link to the bottom of each posting
by Steve Nospam 14 Mar '14

14 Mar '14

Because each email client deals with mime differently, I would like to add a link to the bottom of each posting that would allow the recipient to click and replay to the posting. This will allow digest recipients to reply more easily and hopefully avoid replies with the entire digest being sent back. mailto: listname(a)my.domain subject=subject of the message being read In my experiments, I see that gmail interprets the digest as a single email with all the postings strung together and no ability to reply to a particular message. Outlook creates a separate attachment for each posting in the digest. With a handler like above, digests would become much more useful for my lists. I've done lots of searching the archives and have not found this capability.

Direct message to archive only?
by Keith Bierman 14 Mar '14

14 Mar '14

The closest thing I can find in previous threads was entitled "Archive a message without send email" (sic) Similar to that posting, I find myself needing to "replay" off list discussions for the record. With mailman, controlled by cPanel is there any way to accomplish this without actually posting to the list itself? Keith Bierman khbkhb(a)gmail.com

Messages addressed to Mailman lists are systematically diverted to predefined default email account
by Jacques Setton 14 Mar '14

14 Mar '14

Hi, I have been able to get the Mailman web interface to fully operate satisfactorily. This includes lists consultation, subscription / un-subscription, setup and management. But I am not yet able to get mailing to any list accounts (ex. mylist(a)domain.tld, mylist-request(a)domain.tld, etc. ) to correctly operate. Every time a mail is sent to one of these accounts, the sender's mail gets systematically diverted to a predefined default email account. This indicates that the above email addresses are not recognized by Postfix as Mailman related lists to be processed accordingly. For example, in the below maillog trace we see that the memo initially addressed to myslist(a)domain.net by admin-europe(a)waycast.eu is finally delivered to the default account admin(a)domain.net instead of being processed by '/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post mylist' as it should normally be the case : - - - [root@vps12345 ~]# more /usr/local/psa/var/log/maillog | grep 1A52911616E Mar 11 23:12:27 vps12345 postfix/smtpd[19763]: 1A52911616E: client=relay6-d.mail.gandi.net[217.70.183.198] Mar 11 23:12:27 vps12345 postfix/cleanup[19767]: 1A52911616E: message-id=<!&!AAAAAAAAAAAYAAAAAAAAAHqVdj4TMlNNnKyTMxcTrDTCgAAAEAAAABDlMhHAh X9PqvkRNi1Uq10BAAAAAA==(a)waycast.eu> Mar 11 23:12:27 vps12345 postfix/qmgr[19671]: 1A52911616E: from=<admin-europe(a)waycast.eu>, size=17420, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Mar 11 23:14:57 vps129345 postfix/smtp[19770]: 1A52911616E: to=<admin(a)domain.fr>, orig_to=<mylist(a)domain.net>, relay=mx1.ovh.net[213.186.33.29]:25, delay=150, delays=0.1/0.01/60/90, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 ok 1394576096 qp 28763) Mar 11 23:14:57 vps12345 postfix/qmgr[19671]: 1A52911616E: removed [root@vps12345 ~]# - - - Despite skimming through this Mailman-Users list and many other source publications, I haven't yet been able to figure out the exact origin of this abnormal behavior. Though I suspect a poorly defined Postfix 'transport' specification (see item 7 further below), but this remains to be confirmed. Please note that I am using a hosted VPS running CentOS with, among other things, Plesk, Postfix and Mailman. All software versions and configuration details are communicated below. Another piece of useful information : the 'admin(a)domain.fr' default account has been specified at Plesk's web admin interface level. I'd therefore welcome any help on this issue. Many thanks in advance !

Add a footer to each digest entry that will allow a reply
by Steve Nospam 13 Mar '14

13 Mar '14

I would like to add a footer to each message in the digest that will allow the recipient to click and post a reply with the correct subject, etc. Is this possible? My searches haven't produced any useful hits. I have subscribers who only want to get a single email each day but they would like to answer some of the postings. Thanks!

Sorry. Just realized there was a arch file in the bin directory. ./arch --wipe [listname] did the trick.

None of the things I suggested can be done from the Mailman list admin web UI. They all require direct access to the Mailman installalation on the server which users of a cPanel hosted Mailman typically don't have. See the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/display/DOC/Mailman+and+CPanel>. > The following is a typical email requesting a list subscription: That email is the notice from Mailman to the list owner of a pending subscription. It doesn't say how the subscription request arrived to Mailman. The bottom line is in a cPanel hosted Mailman installation, there is probably nothing more you can do beyond what you've been doing. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

Suspending Requests for Subscription
by certuspersonality 09 Mar '14

Some scammer has discovered the possibility to subscribe to my Mailman subscriber list and is now inundating me with requests for subscription. So far, I have dealt with the requests by rejecting them through Mailman, but the next day there are new ones with different email addresses. Is there a way of suspending requests for subscription temporarily? Regards, Herward
