cPanel mailing list accumulating space
Hi all,
I have 3 mailing lists sent up for myself and my wife, so we both get emails for 1 address. I have limited room on my server space and I want all emails to pass through and none to be archived.

I have got help on this list before for this issue, https://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users@python.org/msg72230.html _but_ the lists are still archiving, see picture above, This might not sound like much but I only have about 30MB to play with my allotment so it's *very *tight.
I can ask my isp to delete and have done ion the past but I want to set it up so it's 100% pass through.
Currently, the lists are setup as follows: [image: image.png] Non-digest options -> scrub_nondigestis set to No.
I have tried the cpanel forum before with no help given.
How are things getting stored?
Any help much appreciated.
Tom.
Cheers,
Tom.

Hi Tom,
I am a cPanel host that offers Mailman 2 hosting and I have seen disk storage accumulate, even for those lists that have archiving turned off. The storage usage is most likely coming from the attachment directory. You can ask your ISP to periodically clean it out for you.
For what its worth, we include unlimited storage for our Mailman 3 clients and several gigabytes of storage for our Mailman 2 clients. You can go to https://mailmanhost.com for more information or you can contact me off list.

If, as stated, scrub_nondigest is No, the only attachments that should be stored are those scrubbed from plain format digests. Unfortunately, I think there's no way to avoid this other than training the users to send plain text only (an impossible task on most lists), because I think the plain text digest is created even if it has no recipients.
You can set Digest options -> digestable to No and force everyone to subscribe to messages, but that may not be acceptable.

Hello All,
I am running a listserv which was recently moved to GNU Mailman 2.1.23 on a Dream Host server (I assume UNIX). I am encountering the following problem:
Replies to Digest messages (both MIME and plain text) sometimes have line breaks stripped from them. We have seen this so far with both a version of Microsoft Outlook and an email client program for an Android phone. As far as I know, the digest messages themselves originally all look fine when sent from the listserv.
Anyone know if there is anything I can do about this?
Bonus Question: I do not have command prompt access -- only admin panel access (listserv software is implemented through Dream Host). Anything I can do from the admin panel? What would I ask Dream Host to change?
Thanks, Michael

Hello All,
Please don't hijack threads. When you want to post a new topic, don't do it by replying to another post, just compose a ney message to the list.
Please see <https://wiki.list.org/DOC/Mailman%20is%20not%20Listserv>.
Use a different mail client that doesn't do this. Otherwse, there's nothing you can do to control what users mail clients do.
There is no change to the digests themselves that would mitigate this issue without breaking the way the original digests render.
Further, people shouldn't be replying to a digest. For a MIME format digest, they should open the individual message and reply to that. For the plain digest, they should just copy/paste relevant context from the digest into a new post to the list. Of course, training list members to do that is probably not possible ...
