Dear Sir,
I own a mailing list which I manage thru mailman software. I am quite new to this software. I actually used Yahoo Groups for more than theree years for my list but recently migrated to my own server with mailman to manage the list. I have difficulty in getting members ban from the list. The ban list screen says the following: "Addresses in this list are banned outright from subscribing to this mailing list, with no further moderation required. Add addresses one per line; start the line with a ^ character to designate a regular expression match." which means an address should be like ^x@y.z. But when I tried to directly subscribe this address (after banning) it gets added to the list. I also tried ot ban x@y.z but still able to add this address to the list. Could you please help me on this? I also could not figure out how to see the complete list of members as one file. I have more than 25000 members on my list. Same for the unsusbcribed members as I used to get these in Yahoo Groups quite easily. I have tried to find the info at university of washington pages but unfortunately the information given there did work with me.
Thanks in advance.
