Need installation help.
I ran configure without any options because (a) I'm using sendmail and the default user:group is daemon:daemon (the with-mail-gid default) and (b) Apache' Group variable is det to nobody, the --with-cgi-gid default).
bin/check_perms didn't like the group value; it wanted 'mailman'! So bin/check_perms -f "fixed" that.
I created a test group and got the URL about list admin. The error message was
Failure to exec script. WANTED gid 11, GOT gid 70. (Reconfigure to take 70?)
11 is other (!); 70 is mailman.
I'm confused.
Thanks for the help.

Hi -
I've been getting overwhelmed with stuff the administravia filter catches. I'm the only one permitted to post to a certain list I've generated, but many subscribe to the list ("listen-only"). If they want to submit something, they send the submission to me at a different address.
Problem is that I get a few dozen unauthorized submissions directly to the list address, the admin filter catches them as it should, and then I have to scroll through a pile of them to reject them.
Can I filter incoming with something like procmail to just delete stuff that I know to be spam? Or is there a feature I haven't found within mailman which will do this for me?

I would recommend pre-processing with procmail...

You can add spam filters, catch duplicate messages, filter obscenities, etc.

Hello!
I got this Mailman bug when opening the Membership Management - when trying to open 30,000+ Email addresses list.
But, I didn't have any problems with smaller mailing lists (2,000, 6,200).
Can you help me on how to fix this bug?
Thanks,
Robert ..............................
