Duplicate emails in umbrella lists
by Lindsay Haisley Sept. 17, 2025

Sept. 17, 2025

I want to set up two anouncement-only lists, call them U and P with the following linked conditions. * Posts by the authorized poster to list U will go to members of BOTH lists U and P. * Posts by the authorized poster to list P will go ONLY to members of list P. * If a subscriber's address is on BOTH lists U and P, said subscriber will only receive ONE copy of an authorized post to list U. Is this possible, and if so, how? I'm running Mailman 2.1.18-1. -- Lindsay Haisley | "The arc of the moral universe is long, FMP Computer Services | but it bends toward justice" 512-496-7118 | http://www.fmp.com | - Martin Luther King, Jr.

Question regarding "topics" (mm2)
by Ralf Hildebrandt Sept. 5, 2025

Sept. 5, 2025

In 25 years of operation one in-house working-group FINALLY decided to activate the "topics" feature in a list on our MM2 instance. Questions: * when a user is added, no topics are automatically chosen. Is there a way of (for example) enabling ALL/CERTAIN topics by default? Rationale behind this: If it becomes "too much" for a member he or she can simply opt out of certain uninteresting topics. * Is there a way of setting a default for "Do you want to receive messages that do not match any topic filter?" for every (new) member? Rationale behind this: Uncategorized topics should not be lost or invisible. -- Ralf Hildebrandt Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin Geschäftsbereich IT | Abteilung Netz | Netzwerk-Administration Invalidenstraße 120/121 | D-10115 Berlin Tel. +49 30 450 570 155 ralf.hildebrandt(a)charite.de https://www.charite.de
