Hevy resource footprint forces backdrop to mailman 2.1
by Martin Lorenz 05 Aug '23

Greetings, after many years of smoothly running a mailman2 instance I had to migrate my virtual server to a new provider. There I found, that mailman2 was no longer supported and tried to migrate to mailman3 .. with much pain and no success. Mailman3 keeps crashing my v-server and swallows almost every mail sent to any of the migrated lists. So I wanted to switch back to mailman 2.1.39 by installing from the source package and found that this also fails due to missing python2 support. How to solve this? Thank you very much

Unwanted digest to moderator

I am an administrator and moderator for a Mailman 2.1.18 list. Some months ago I started getting frequent digests addressed to the <list>-requests@<--> address. Why might this be happening and how can I stop it? John

Dream Host GNU Mailman Nuked
by Michael Reeder -- Hygeia MS 29 Nov '22

29 Nov '22

Dream Host had -- something -- happen over the holiday weekend. As of right now, Tuesday 11/29 at 11:51am EST, I believe that all GNU Mailman lists are still offline. I'm posting here in case any Dream Host list admins are not aware yet that your lists are likely not working. The last message my list received was 8:08AM on Sunday (and traffic was unusually slow for two days before that). My list is usually at its busiest on Sundays (semi-retired psychotherapists there as much for socialization as professionally). Lists are not functioning and admin control panels not reachable. They also had other webserver and email problems Sunday and Monday that seem to be sorting out. Yesterday they were saying they had a solution in mind. At this moment their status webpage merely says "*[Identified]*Our Technical Operations team has identified an issue impacting Discussion Lists and is currently working on a resolution. We'll update this post with new information as it becomes available." See: https://www.dreamhoststatus.com -- Michael -- *Michael Reeder, LCPC * *Hygeia Counseling Services : Baltimore / Mt.

mailman not sending email to all the members of mailing list
by Ninad 25 Nov '22

25 Nov '22

Dear All, Myself Ninad and we are using mailman 2.1.29 from long time. From last few days, I have observed a strange behavior in mailman. mailman not sending email to all the members of mailing list and the mail is getting posted to random members of the list. Even "nomail" option is also not set for the members. I observed this issue with random mailing lists. Below are the some logs form the smtp log. I dont know how can I debug this issue. I kindly request all to guide me in this regard.

Override recipient filters for specific sender
by karlgsiewert＠gmail.com 16 Nov '22

16 Nov '22

One of our list members sends announcements from their organization to the list on a regular basis. This is not a problem for us. However, because of the way they are structured, they get held for approval with either the "Message has implicit destination" or "Too many recipients to the message" errors. I then have to go in and accept them. I would like to save time by allowing this specific member to bypass the recipient filters. Is there a way to do this?

Administrator Membership List
by Dennis Putnam 10 Nov '22

Is there a way to get the entire membership list on a page like before? I don't have a large number of subscribers and going through them alphabetically is a royal pain.
