Is there a way to on/off the dupes option via command line? Possibly withlist?

See <http://www.msapiro.net/scripts/set_nodups.py>. This withlist script turns On nodupes for all members of the list. To turn the setting Off instead, change '1' to '0' in the line

    mlist.setMemberOption(member, mm_cfg.DontReceiveDuplicates, 1)

To do only a few members (e.g. 2), change

for member in mlist.getMembers():

to

for member in ['user1@example.com', 'user2@example.com']:

Or better yet, when I import a file of users can I set dupes unchecked? I currently do this via command line with a text file not through web admin.

Uncheck the "Filter out duplicate messages to list members (if possible)" box in the list admin General Options -> new_member_options settings before running add_members.

You could also do this via withlist. E.g.

bin/withlist -l LIST Loading list LIST (locked) The variable `m' is the LIST MailList instance

...

...

from Mailman import mm_cfg m.new_member_options &= ~mm_cfg.DontReceiveDuplicates m.Save()

Unlocking (but not saving) list: gpc-test Finalizing
