Mailman2 - separator lines for headers and footers
by vince＠vheuser.com 14 Jul '20

I added a header temporarily, then deleted it. Now I have lines separating the sections for header and footer but nothing in those areas. Search the manual. Not finding it. Is there any way to turn off the lines between the body of the message and header/footer? Thanks! ~Vince

(core) features in MM2.1 not available in MM3
by Brett Delmage 11 Jul '20

Is there a reliable and comprehensive list of features (some which I consider fundamental and core) implemented in MM2.1 which are not yet, or never will be implemented in MM3? I've see messages here which give me concern about fundamental operations which would unexpectedly break in MM3. I'v considered migrating to MM3 but it feels like there are a lot of hidden gotchas. Thanks. Brett

10 Jul '20

I am pleased to announce the release of Mailman 2.1.34. This is a minor bug fix release and has updates to the Spanish i18n. See the attached README.txt for details. As noted Mailman 2.1.30 was the last feature release of the Mailman 2.1 branch from the GNU Mailman project. There has been some discussion as to what this means. It means there will be no more releases from the GNU Mailman project containing any new features. There may be future patch releases to address the following: i18n updates. security issues. bugs affecting operation for which no satisfactory workaround exists. Mailman 2.1.34 is the fourth such patch 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.org https://www.gnu.org/software/mailman http://mailman.sourceforge.net/ Mailman 2.1.34 can be downloaded from https://launchpad.net/mailman/2.1/ https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mailman/ https://sourceforge.net/projects/mailman/ -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

One list subscribed to another fails to deliver email
by Philip Colmer 07 Jul '20

07 Jul '20

We have a number of "source" lists, e.g. listA, listB and listC. Each of them has listZ as a member, with the intention that all posts to A, B and C get replicated to Z. This all works until it gets to the point where posts to Z get emailed out to the members of Z. This is currently failing because the gateway mail system we are using is reporting "Duplicate header 'Delivered-To'". Is there a setting or mechanism I can set in Mailman 2.1 that strips the duplicate header or does anyone have any other suggestions on how to resolve this? Thanks. Philip
