Does anyone out there know where to find an rpm for a newer if not the most current version of mailman that'll run in cos 6.6? I'm looking for something newer than what's in the official repo. Sincerely, Fabian Santiago Sent from my iPhone

Possible problems using a site-wide list auto-responder?
by Bill.Costa＠unh.edu May 5, 2015

May 5, 2015

I couldn't seem to find any docs, FAQs or postings on this topic. The auto-responder feature built into Mailman looks like it would be perfect for the site-wide list as a way of letting users know when somebody will be looking at their questions (normal business hours) and to point them to self-help documentation. But since the site-wide list is used for various automated tasks, are there any downsides or cautions in using this feature? I was thinking of turning it on both for the posting address as well as the -owner address. ...BC -- =====================================[ Bill.Costa(a)unh.edu ]== Bill Costa 1 Leavitt Lane UNH IT -- 1st Floor University of New Hampshire Durham, NH 03824 USA Voice: +1-603-862-3056 No good deed...

Mystery of the site-wide mailing list...
by Bill.Costa＠unh.edu May 5, 2015

May 5, 2015

I'm migrating our site from ListProc to Mailman and am in the process of wrapping my head around the Mailman way of doing things. For almost 20 years we have had the established email address list.admin(a)unh.edu as *the* way to contact your friendly local neighborhood mailing list site administrator. ListProc, as part of the list configuration, made it easy to specify this already established address as the single contact point for the site admin for all automatically generated emails. With Mailman I am seeing the convention of using the site-wide mailing list's owner address for contacting the site admin, both in messages for list owners... > From: mailman-owner(a)lists.unh.edu > To: joe list owner > Subject: Your new mailing list: my.list > > The mailing list `my.list' has just been created for you. The > following is some basic information about your mailing list. : : > Please address all questions to mailman-owner(a)lists.unh.edu. ...and in messages sent to subscribers.... > From: mailman-owner(a)lists.unh.edu > To: mary list subscriber > Subject: lists.unh.edu mailing list memberships reminder > > This is a reminder, sent out once a month, about your lists.unh.edu > mailing list memberships. : : > If you have questions, problems, comments, etc, send them to > mailman-owner(a)lists.unh.edu. Thanks! But if you go to the top-level listinfo web page, you see the suggestion: > If you are having trouble using the lists, please contact > mailman(a)lists.unh.edu. This address in particular does the user no good since, if configured as suggested, the site-wide mailing list does not accept non-subscriber postings. > From: mailman-owner(a)lists.unh.edu > To: fred random user > Subject: How do I... > > Your message has been rejected, probably because you are not > subscribed to the mailing list and the list's policy is to > prohibit non-members from posting to it. If you think that > your messages are being rejected in error, contact the mailing > list owner at mailman-owner(a)lists.unh.edu. I searched the archives for more information about the role of the site-wide mailing list, and found this thread that is related to my issue. It is unanswered as far as I can tell. https://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/msg25082.html So here is what I want to do. Any place that mailman would direct the user to the site administrator, I would like it to use our long established address for that function, and not mailman-owner, and certainly not the mailman list posting address if that is not what it is suppose to be used for. At this point the only thing I can find that is relevant is changing the name of the site-wide list, but then I would still get the auto-generated email address of "list.admin-owner(a)lists.unh.edu" which is not desirable, and I would have to open up postings to the world to the site-wise list which does not seem to be the recommended practice. Any help or suggestions would be welcomed. ...BC -- =====================================[ Bill.Costa(a)unh.edu ]== Bill Costa 1 Leavitt Lane UNH IT -- 1st Floor University of New Hampshire Durham, NH 03824 USA Voice: +1-603-862-3056 No good deed...

Please consider donating to the GNU Mailman project
by Barry Warsaw May 5, 2015

May 5, 2015

I should have included this in our release announcement. I'd like to remind everyone that GNU Mailman has a directed donation fund set up at the Free Software Foundation. Please consider donating! http://wiki.list.org/x/4816967 This year, we used a portion of our fund to sponsor Abhilash coming to PyCon 2015. Abhilash has been a core developer since his participation in GSoC, and has proven himself to be indispensable across a wide range of the project. We were beyond happy to be able to meet him in person and work with him over the course of the sprints, and we reached the 3.0 release in large part because of his participation at the sprints. Your donations can help with future sprints, user testing, hosting, and more. We're a small team of volunteers and every dollar can help. A portion of your donation also goes to the Free Software Foundation, so you can help two great organizations with one donation. Cheers, -Barry

Hi, I have Mailman installed on my Debian and I don't get any message in my syslog server from Mailman. I have exim4 on the same server and I get syslog from it.

Re: [Mailman-Users] /etc/mailman/mm_cfg.py (was EyeLand's problem)

May 4, 2015

In poking around debian systems to see if I could shed any light on EyeLand's problem, I ended up with a question. On all the machines I can ssh to, I have an /etc/mailman/mm_cfg.py as well as a /usr/lib (or /var/lib) /mailman/Mailman/mm_cfg.py, and the second is a symbolic link to the first. Why do we have an /etc/mailmand/mm_cfg.py at all? Just curious, Laura

Mailman and dmark help -- please
by Dennis Longnecker May 2, 2015

May 2, 2015

I have a mailing list setup for our boy scout troop. The site is running mailman version version 2.1.18-1. I looking at various lists, I believe I have as much set as I can. (Details for from_is_list) = Munge From I really -- really want the list set so when someone gets an e-mail from the list they can see who sent it and when they click reply it goes to the original sender. When I have the remove sender option, etc. People don't know who the e-mail came from or how to directly reply. I was reading about some DNS DMARC settings, but frankly it really confused me. What I have observed: E-mail from MSN to list Comcast Users = DOn't Get it AOL Users = Don't Get it Yahoo Users = Don't Get it users with arvixe accounts = Do Get it. E-mail from GMAIL to list Comcast Users = DOn't Get it AOL Users = Don't Get it Yahoo Users = Don't Get it users with arvixe accounts = Do Get it. E-mail from Comcast to list Comcast Users = DO Get it AOL Users = Don't Get it Yahoo Users = Do Get it outlook.com = Do Get it users with arvixe accounts = Do Get it. E-mail from AOL to list Comcast Users = DO Get it AOL Users = Don't Get it Yahoo Users = Dont Get it outlook.com = Dont Get it users with arvixe accounts = Do Get it. E-mail from Outlook to list Comcast Users = DO Get it AOL Users = Don't Get it Yahoo Users = Dont Get it outlook.com = Dont Get it users with arvixe accounts = Do Get it. E-mail from Yahoo to list Comcast Users = DO Get it AOL Users = Don't Get it Yahoo Users = Do Get it outlook.com = Do Get it users with arvixe accounts = Do Get it. Any sugestions? My site is troop101-wa.org if looking at its DNS records could help. Dennis

Still struggling with mailman3 a little bit. :-) When i try to access /archives i get this error: FilterError at /archives/ module.js:340 throw err; ^ Error: Cannot find module '../lib/less/fs' at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:338:15) at Function.Module._load (module.js:280:25) at Module.require (module.js:364:17) at require (module.js:380:17) at Object.<anonymous> (/usr/bin/lessc:4:10) at Module._compile (module.js:456:26) at Object.Module._extensions..js (module.js:474:10) at Module.load (module.js:356:32) at Function.Module._load (module.js:312:12) at Function.Module.runMain (module.js:497:10) Request Method: GET Request URL: http://127.0.0.1:8000/archives/ Django Version: 1.7.7 Exception Type: FilterError Exception Value: module.js:340 throw err; nodejs-less is installed (i guess). Does this error come from nodejs-less? Thanks and Ciao t.

Hello. Just installed mailman3 on one of my testsystems. There is only exim installed. No postfix. When i try to create a new list i get error 500 from nginx. The logfile says: sh: /usr/sbin/postmap: No such file or directory sh: /usr/sbin/postmap: No such file or directory Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib64/python3.4/wsgiref/handlers.py", line 137, in run self.result = application(self.environ, self.start_response) File "/home/mailman/mailman-bundler/venv-3.4/lib/python3.4/site- packages/mailman/database/transaction.py", line 57, in wrapper rtn = function(*args, **kws) File "/home/mailman/mailman-bundler/venv-3.4/lib/python3.4/site- packages/mailman/rest/wsgiapp.py", line 65, in __call__ environ, start_response) File "/home/mailman/mailman-bundler/venv-3.4/lib/python3.4/site- packages/falcon/api.py", line 182, in __call__ responder(req, resp, **params) File "/home/mailman/mailman-bundler/venv-3.4/lib/python3.4/site- packages/mailman/rest/lists.py", line 207, in on_post mlist = create_list(**validator(request)) File "/home/mailman/mailman-bundler/venv-3.4/lib/python3.4/site- packages/mailman/app/lifecycle.py", line 81, in create_list call_name(config.mta.incoming).create(mlist) File "/home/mailman/mailman-bundler/venv-3.4/lib/python3.4/site- packages/mailman/mta/postfix.py", line 69, in create self.regenerate() File "/home/mailman/mailman-bundler/venv-3.4/lib/python3.4/site- packages/mailman/mta/postfix.py", line 104, in regenerate raise RuntimeError(NL.join(errors)) RuntimeError: command failure: /usr/sbin/postmap /home/mailman/mailman- bundler/var/data/postfix_lmtp, 127, Key has expired command failure: /usr/sbin/postmap /home/mailman/mailman- bundler/var/data/postfix_domains, 127, Key has expired [01/May/2015 04:14:48] "POST /mailman3/lists/new/ HTTP/1.0" 200 2716 Why is mailman looking for the postmap command?
