Hi all Mailman aficionados,
I have an odd problem with one of my mailing lists. I have added extra
text in the welcome_msg field to be send to new members but that field
is not used. Instead new members get to see this:
Welkom op de %(real_name)s@%(host_name) maillijst! %(welcome)s
Berichten naar deze lijst kunt u richten aan het volgende adres:
%(emailaddr)s
Algemene informatie over de maillijst kunt u vinden op:
%(listinfo_url)s
etc. (it's in Dutch). I assume this is the standard welcome text but as
you can see it gives variable names instead of their values. And the
text from the welcome_msg field is not used. The send_welcome_msg is
switched on and as far as I can see that is the only other option for
the welcome message.
Am I missing something? Am I goofing up? Any ideas where to look? Thanks
for helping me out. My website and Mailman is on a cPanel hosting server.
Kind regards,
Harmen.
