Mail interface for moderator administration?

by Jens Kjaerulff

Does Mailman allow moderators to use email interface for moderator tasks? For example, for the list example(a)example.net, regular subscribers can unsubscribe by sending a message to example-request(a)example.net, with the word 'unsubscribe' in the subject or body. Can a moderator similarly send a command, for example to reject or approve of a message sent to a moderated list? If so, where can I find information on how to operate Mailman this way, including a listing of existing moderator commands? I am considering to 'migrate' from ezmlm, and one strong side of ezmlm is that it can be operated completely via email interface by moderators. It would greatly facilitate the migration if Mailman could be accessed in similar fashion. Thanks for any feedback on this

From: header rewrite?

by David Piniella

I'm looking to replace an ezmlm server with mailman and have installed mailman 2.1.9-7 on a debian server; lists work but I have a question: Is there an easy way to rewrite the From: address field? I have a list that is used as announce-only and would like it to appear to come from a non-list address (e.g., list is jobs(a)lists.domain.tld and I would like the email to appear as from jobs(a)domain.tld). Reply-To: is good, but not what I'm looking for. The ezmlm analogue is creating a list using the -3 switch to rewrite the address. I have googled, gone through the archives and FAQ and cannot find this info (perhaps I'm not searching for the right terms?) Any help would be appreciated, many thanks in advance.

Reply-To: is good, but not what I'm looking for. The ezmlm analogue is creating a list using the -3 switch to rewrite the address. I'm not sure what you're asking. If you want to know how to put the list address in From:, set General Options->anonymous_list to Yes. If you want to know how to change the domain of this address, put the desired domain in General Options->host_name. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

Sorry, I don't know ezmlm, and I don't know that anyone here does. However, header rewrites of the sort you're talking about would seem to be more appropriate to be done in the MTA, not the mailing list manager. In Sendmail, postfix, or Exim, it should be pretty easy to make these kinds of changes by changing your "masquerade" database to rewrite these kinds of addresses. I have no idea how this concept might be applied to your MTA, however. -- Brad Knowles <brad(a)shub-internet.org> LinkedIn Profile: <http://tinyurl.com/y8kpxu>

Re: [Mailman-Users] Email command in Mailman to get by e-mail a message(like ezmlm has)

No. There are no email commands for retrieving archived messages. The pipermail web archive has periodic pseudo-mailbox (.txt and/or .txt.gz) files and there is normally a global archive mailbox in the file archives/private/LIST.mbox/LIST.mbox that may be linked from the archive table of contents and can normally be retrieved via a URL like <http://www.example.com/mailman/private/LIST.mbox/LIST.mbox>, but there is no mechanism to retrieve messages from the archive via email commends. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

Mailman's philosophy from the beginning has been to provide web based tools and interfaces in preference to email based. Also, I think no one has really perceived a need for this kind of function. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

Using Google Search Appliance With Mailman Archives?

by Jon Forrest

I'm in the process of migrating from ezmlm to mailman. So far everything is working great. I've even been able to migrate ezmlm list archives to mailman so that I can see the messages via the mailman web interface. One of the goals of this migration is to be able to use a Google Search Appliance to search the list archives. What I've found is that the archive for each list is in /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/listname, and in this directory are 1) a directory for each month containing the messages submitted during the month in HTML format. 2) a file for each month containing all the messages for the month in text format concatenated together. I'm trying to figure out the best way to search the archive with a GSA. I'm worried that if I search #1 I'll find what I want but it will be in HTML format which won't be very easy to read. If I search #2 I'll find what I want but I'll see the whole file, which will also contain a bunch of stuff I'm not looking for. Has anybody worked through these issues with a GSA? I'd be interested in hearing how you did it. Cordially, Jon Forrest

Have you tried something like this: http://www.arctic.org/~dean/scripts/ezmlm2mbox Get your Ezmlm archives to Mbox then that can be used as the basis for the Mailman archive. Andrew.

There is a limit to the mail command interface for Mailman. Some user-level documentation on this subject has been written up at <http://www.list.org/mailman-member/node10.html>, but the majority of administrative functions were intended to be used from the web interface, or from the command-line interface on the server. Unfortunately, I'm not aware of anyone having written any documentation on what administrative functions can be performed via the mail interface. That sort of information would normally be available in the List Administrator's Manual (see <http://www.list.org/mailman-admin/index.html>), or in the Site Administrator's documentation (see <http://www.list.org/site.html> and <http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq04.009.htp>). Unfortunately, the information on these pages is incomplete. -- Brad Knowles, <brad(a)stop.mail-abuse.org> "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." -- Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790), reply of the Pennsylvania Assembly to the Governor, November 11, 1755 SAGE member since 1995.
