Hi all,
I have a few mails for my list awaiting moderation.
When I try to moderate them (in my case, they have to be removed, this were all test mails not intended for posting) it just doesn't work.
In the web interface, I open the list, go to "Tend to pending moderator requests", and set the messages to either "Reject" or "Discard", then click the "Submit All Data" button.
A pop-up appears, security warning: "The information you have entered on this page will be sent over an insecure connection and could be read by a third party.
Are you sure you want to send this information?"
I click Continue, and get back the same page with all the to-be-moderated messages untouched. Nothing happens.
Any ideas?
Wouter.

You are accessing the admindb pages via https, but the form action URLs on the pages are http. Your server redirects the http URL to https and the redirect loses the POST data.
This is discussed at https://wiki.list.org/x/4030602 and https://wiki.list.org/x/4030702. You need to do steps 2. and 3. at https://wiki.list.org/x/4030702. If you are not an admin of the Mailman installation, then tell the admins they need to do this.

That did the trick, thanks! I installed MailMan on an existing https site, didn't realise there's an issue with it.
