The owner of one of the mailing lists asked me to put all the addresses in BCC, but when I put the address of my own mailing list in BCC, my email to the group does not go directly to the group, but it requires moderator's approval. I want the emails with implicit address to go directly to this mailing list. How can I do that?

We moved our mailman server to a VPS with a new IP address. After the move, our IP has been blacklisted by AT&amp;T. We had some DNS trouble initially, and this may be why. I've submitted the form that at&amp;t tells you to in order to get your IP removed from the blacklist. I then get a response back saying that the IP is not blacklisted. However, I've got recent bounce messages saying we are. If I try and telnet to at&amp;t's mail servers from the mailman server, I get rejected because of a blacklisted Ip. The IP they are saying is blacklisted is the same one I submitted on there web form. Does anyone have any strategies in dealing with at&amp;t? I would love... god forbid... to actually talk to someone in their postmaster team about this. We host around 200 mailing lists for the National Federation of the Blind.

We have a patron, who was unsubscribe from our mailing list on Mar 1st. The subscribe log has the entry (delete test&lt; at &gt;web-ster.com; email confirmed). On May 6th, the patron then received an email states that the unsubscribe didn't go through due to invalid confirmation string. We search the list and couldn't find the patron listed anymore. How do we check and clear pending queues so patrons wont receive these notices again? Thank you, Here is the bounce email message: The results of your email command are provided below. Attached is your original message. - Results: Invalid confirmation string. Note that confirmation strings expire approximately 3 days after the initial subscription request. If your confirmation has expired, please try to re-submit your original request or message. - Unprocessed: RE: Your confirmation is required to leave the CSD_parents mailing list Remove from this mailing list plz.</pre> Hung Phan 2013-06-10T22:17:53 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.mailman.user/75168 <pre>Hi all, since upgrading to mailman 2.1.15 the following problem occurs: When lists admins want to change the list parameters or member-list by the webinterface they receive: "Error: The form lifetime has expired. (request forgery check)" and no change is done. IMPORTANT: This error only happens when the list-name contains a plus-sign "+", like e+test&lt; at &gt;lists.myorg.com. The other list functions are working fine. Unfortunately we have got a lot of such lists and ist nearly unpossible to change all the list-names.

These same characters names look fine on the web "Membership Management... Section", which the HTML header reported as UTF-8. My console is UTF-8: ( LANG=en_CA.UTF-8 ) I tried piping list_members through iconv for an 8859-1 conversion to UTF-8, in case that's how they were stored. Not sure if I used it right, but the characters were still messed up. I tried the Jim Tittsler script to fetch names from web, but it crashes with an exception: ...

So far, everything has worked great, but I've now discovered that the archive message numbering has changed. For example, I'm referring to the numbers "006782" at the end of a URL like http://lists.hdfgroup.org/pipermail/hdf-forum_lists.hdfgroup.org/2013-May/006782.html. I believe that this happened because after the list was first created in mailman (in 2009), older archives were added using "arch &lt;listname&gt; &lt;older.mbox&gt;. My hypothesis is that if I were able to separate the current mbox into the messages that existed before older.mbox was archived, and those that were added afterwards, I could then rebuild the archive in the original order so that the message numbering would be preserved. As best as I can tell, there's no way for me to determine which messages were in the archive before older.mbox was added. Is there a way? Alternatively, is these a better way to preserve all of the links that are now sitting in Google, various th</pre> Matthew Needham 2013-06-12T19:10:32 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.mailman.user/75156 <pre>I'm trying to setup mailman with nginx and fcgiwrap, but I'm getting 403 errors, well a page that is blank except for the number 403.

When looking into this further, I notice that these messages are mainly administrivia responses, and that all of them mostly come from non-list members. Does anyone know any way of discarding messages to specific addresses (mainly requests addresses) where the member is not on the list? Obviously the subscription addresses I would like to leave as is for the moment. I have also set all the moderation settings to discard for non-members as well to see this this improves matters.

I'm announcing it here in case any of you can make use of it, or perhaps point me to something I've overlooked.

Is it possible to add this feature for when the list owner is notified for subscriptions/subscriptions? So instead of the usual admin link, there's a confirm url which doesn't require a user logging in with the list administrator password? Simply clicking the link would confirm the user's subscribe/unsubscribe request. I had a look through the confirm python file, but unfortunately I don't have enough experience with the language to make the necessary changes, Thanks for your time, Regards, Adrian ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users&lt; at &gt;python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python</pre> ORiordan, Adrian 2013-06-07T10:38:56 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.mailman.user/75117 <pre>Hi community, I've installed mailman (Version 2.1.12) at my CentOS 6 server and in gernerally it works fine.

We have just migrated our mailing lists from a old server running cPanel to a new one, also running cPanel. I have a feeling that this issue may have to do with the patches that cPanel applies to Mailman. If I go to domain.com/mailman/listinfo, I see all of our public mailing lists. However, if I go to www.domain.com/mailman/listinfo, I am told that there are no public lists on the server. The crazy thing is that this worked on the old server. Since I wasn't the one who set up the old system, it is possible that someone put some sort of apache rewrite rule on the old system to make this work.

The server is hosting around 200 lists. The mail archives on this server are around 30GB. The only way I can get the data to the new server is over the internet. Due to the speed of the DSL link (700k upload), I need to turn off the mail server in order to migrate data at any sort of reasonable speed. What I would like to do is move the list archives out of the mailman directory temporarily while we migrate everything else over. Then, once we have the new server set up, move the archives. cPanel is doing the migration, and they cannot selectively exclude directories. They need to move the account with the mailing lists as one package. If this makes any sort of sense, can someone point me in the right direction on how we might accomplish this. If we can't do the archives later, I'm going to need to have the mail server down for about a week while the data moves over.
