listmembers still requiring moderation

After upgrading to 1.b11, listmembers of my lists are having their messages require moderator approval, even though I've set them up to be allowed to post.
What am I missing? Is it a permissions thing?
Wish I could search the archives...
-John Lewis

If the messages you and they get from Mailman, and the admininstration page, mention "implicit" addressing, then the problem is that they sent to the list via Bcc: and put friend@public.com or the like on the To: and Cc: lines. I just explained to the writers that it was a small measure against spam and asked that they address the list explicitly, and they had no problem with that. __ Trevor Johnson

Did you rerun configure when you upgraded? Check Defaults.py to be sure USE_ENVELOPE_SENDER=0 (or add that to your mm_cfg.py file).

You can, actually. The entire Python.Org web site is indexed at <http://www.python.org/search>. You should narrow your search to just the SIGs.

I may be ignorant here, but I have my own server up and I have root access on it, and it is running the new version of Red hat. I have figured out what two files I need to download to get mailman but I can't figure out the instructions to install it.
Basically I don't know what directory on my machine to put the archive file in and what commands to use to get it to unpack & install itself. Basic stuff, but I'm not fully versed in Linux as of yet. I looked for a very basic idiot proof instruction file but could not locate one, and I'm afraid of doing this wrong and blowing the system up.

got it all working (finally) and the archives and all work ok. yea!
Is there any info on doing some sort of a html frames version?
What I'm looking for: top frame - month index left frame - msg threads (with option to view by auth/subj/date) right from - msgbody (or custom intropage if you've just started viewing the archive)

Take a look at my archive database program, written in PHP. The messages are actually stored in MySQL--they are inserted into the tables with a Perl program. It's being used right now on the Harmonet mailing list (of which, I believe, you are a part) but it can be used with any mailing list or any MLM:
