I want all mails sent to the list to come from the list's email address...
But, in this case, if the user forgets to sign their name at the
bottom of their mail body, effectively the mail to the list is
anonymous...!
Is there a way to add the user name (or email address) to the top of
each mail so that the mails have the name of the sender, while the
mail itself comes from the list address?
I have looked high and low for an answer, but noone seems to have the solution.
Thank you!

Hi,
I received the following error this morning. So I rerun configure again with the following command: ./configure --with-cgi-id=apache --prefix=/var/mailman. I'm still getting the same error. Is there any place that I can look for so that I can debug this problem better? Perhaps, looking at the config history file or something. Any other places that I can check the cause of this error?
"Mailman CGI error!!!
The Mailman CGI wrapper encountered a fatal error. This entry is being stored in your syslog:
Group mismatch error. Mailman expected the CGI
wrapper script to be executed as group "nobody", but
the system's web server executed the CGI script as
group "apache". Try tweaking the web server to run the
script as group "nobody", or re-run configure,
providing the command line option `--with-cgi-gid=apache'."
Thanks

Hi, This problem is not caused by mailman, but I still want to give it a
shot here. I'm hosting a mailing list on top of mailman. Emails are
supposed to be sent out by AWS ses. However, ses requires that sender
address must be verified, which leads to a problem that emails sent by
subscribers to mailing list cannot be sent to other subcirbers, since their
addresses are not verified. And it is impossible to verified every
subscriber. Are there smtp service providers allowing unverified email
address to send out emails, or do I have other solutions?
Thanks.

I think this may have been addressed but I can't find it. Now that I am
munging the from address to mitigate DMARC, recipients can no longer
tell who the message is from. What are other folks doing to handle that?
Other than having list members add their own signature? Thanks.
I'm not sure why I am getting these errors but it seems to be associated
with backups. Is there a backup cronjob that didn't run, fail or is
something else wrong? The directories do exist but not the indicated pck
files. TIA

I am in the process of migrating mailman to a new server. It seems to
have been done correctly but mailman is unable to write to the archive
files.
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied:
'/var/lib/mailman/archives/private/rushtalk/2020-February.txt'
I ran check_perms and it found no issues. However, when I look at the
ownership of the archives I get this:
-rw-r--r--. 1 root mailman 72404 Feb 16 14:26 2020-February.txt
Shouldn't either the owner be mailman or permissions be -rw-rw-r--? TIA.
I am pleased to announce the release of Mailman 2.1.30rc1.
Python 2.6 is the minimum supported, but Python 2.7 is strongly recommended.
This is a routine bug fix release with a few new features. See the
attached README.txt for details.
Mailman 2.1.30 will be the last release of the Mailman 2.1 branch from
the GNU Mailman project. It contains some new strings which are
untranslated in most of the i18n translations. If you can help update
any of the translations, please contribute your changes.
Changes can be submitted via a bzr merge proposal on Launchpad or by
sending an updated mailman.po file and or templates directly to me. This
will be the last chance to get i18n updates into a release.
Mailman is free software for managing email mailing lists and
e-newsletters. Mailman is used for all the python.org and
SourceForge.net mailing lists, as well as at hundreds of other sites.
For more information, please see our web site at one of:
http://www.list.orghttps://www.gnu.org/software/mailmanhttp://mailman.sourceforge.net/
Mailman 2.1.30rc1 can be downloaded from
https://launchpad.net/mailman/2.1/https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mailman/https://sourceforge.net/projects/mailman/

Since migrating to mailman 3 on the latest RHEL is going to take some
time, I need an interim solution to DMARC mitigation. I understand
version 2.1.18 will do what I need, at least until I can finish the
migration. However, I have been unable to find a repository or rpm for
that version for RHEL 5. Can someone help me out with that?
I have mailman 2.1.12 installed on RHEL 7 (that is the latest version
available in the RHEL 7 repository). When I try to access the mailman
web pages (apache 2.4) I get the error:

Since it looks correct to me, perhaps some new eyes can see what I am
missing. TIA.
