Mailing Lists

Hi

If I add a list does posting go both ways when posted on the news group or
does it only only stay in the news group and not on the server.

Regards

Petrus

The groups are bi-directional unless otherwise specified.

Re: Mailing Lists

Hi

Thank you for your quick response.

I have subscribed my Topaz for Delphi group to be added to your news groups.
Thank you for the oppertunity to be bale to convert it and offer the users
both solutions. The group is not big, about 250 people, with an average of 2
posts a day.

How long will it take to get it it added?

Thank you

Petrus

Would you like to submit the group archives to gmane?  If so, right
now is the best time to do it (ie. the least disruption of article
numbers).

If you put in an email address in the submit form, an email will be
sent you when it is added.

Re: Mailing Lists

Hi

Thank you for the reply

The list is on Topica and I don't know how to archive the list. Will try,
but I don't think it is needed to add the archive, if you know how to get
the archive on Topica it will be great.

Please can you let me know if you received the application and all is
correct.

It was for Topaz for Delphi and I asked for gmane.comp.lang.delphi.topaz

Regards

Petrus

sourceforge mailing list

The mailing list on sourceforge uses mailman but it seems they
use some other ways to do the "archiving". I don't see a "mbox"
format file anywhere. Is it still possible to import one of such
mailing list into gmane?

Thanks!

If you manage to gather a Unix mbox archive, it can be imported.  If
not, not.

(Or a one-file-per-message tar file.)

gmane software setup

I just downloaded the gmane software (0.4) and try
to setup between one of my mailman mailing list and
inn2 news server, just for testing.
It seems the documents are pretty rough, and it says
go to the web site for more documents :)
anyway, a "make install" gives "syntax error".
I tried to manually run those commands from Makefile
and got:
cp: cannot stat `news-post2': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat `nntp-post2': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat `gmane.conf': No such file or directory

also, the INSTALLATION talks about Exim, does that mean
it won't work with "sendmail"? a grep of sendmail seems
to have some matches ...

btw, does the source include the script to import mbox file
into my inn news server? If not, how to do that?

http://gmane.org/links.php mentioned TMDA, SpamAssassin,
Newsportal and INN. Are all of them required? I have
INN installed for now.

Thanks!
Frank

Yes, that doesn't work.  One of these weeks I'm going to write a
proper install script.

I don't know -- it probably will work with sendmail.

Yes.

That depends on what you want to do.
