list of lists per host?

Is there a way to browse a list of lists hosted by this mailman
server?  (Like the MajorCool interface works)

	If you go to the Mailman admin web interface, you will get a list 
of all public lists that are hosted there.  The private lists won't 
be shown, but knowing the names of the private lists on the system, 
it's not hard to construct the URL that you need to go to in order to 
access the admin web interface for each private list.

Wow.  Guess I should've actually tried that (or at least R'd TFM)
first, huh?  This is exactly what I wanted.  Keep up the good work,
guys.

Unable to subscribe after confirmation

Hi, 
I havn't received any reply and hence I am resending this mail. Please
let me know if have any clues to this problem. 

Regards 
Jerome 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi, 
Till yesterday my setup of mailman 2.0.14-18 was working which was
running on SUSE Enterprise 8. 
All of a sudden, it's giving straneg problems... 
Now, if any mail is sent to the list, it doesn't reach the recipients. 
I checked all the logs and even tried creating a new mailing list but
that too didnot work out.. 
Here is what I did with the newlist. 

1.Created the new list.. Added the aliases.. 
2.Got the mail upon list creation 
3.Subscribed to the list through my different email address. Checked in
the ~mailman/logs/subscribe.. it shows as pending 
4.Received a confirmation mail - so that the subscription can be
validated. 
5.Sent reply mail confirming the same.. But the log still shows as
pending and not as new.. 
6.Checked the membership management and the membership list is blank. 
7. Sendmail logs shows that the replied mail for confirmation has been
received successfully. 

Please help me with getting this setup up and running

Scripting newlist gives weird errors!

Hello:  

I'm developing a script to automate list creation, particularly
alias creation.  I'm running into weird errors.  

All clues are appreciated.  

Using the mm scripts at a command line as intended seems to work
fine.  But when I try to call it from a script, it hangs and
fails to return cleanly so my script can continue to execute.

bash-2.05$ newlist testy hesco <at> greens.org qwerty
To finish creating your mailing list, you must edit your
/etc/aliases (or equivalent) file by adding the following lines,
and possibly running the `newaliases' program:

## testy mailing list
testy:              "|/home/mailman/mail/mailman post testy"
testy-admin:        "|/home/mailman/mail/mailman admin testy"
testy-bounces:      "|/home/mailman/mail/mailman bounces testy"
testy-confirm:      "|/home/mailman/mail/mailman confirm testy"
testy-join:         "|/home/mailman/mail/mailman join testy"
testy-leave:        "|/home/mailman/mail/mailman leave testy"
testy-owner:        "|/home/mailman/mail/mailman owner testy"
testy-request:      "|/home/mailman/mail/mailman request testy"
testy-subscribe:    "|/home/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe testy"
testy-unsubscribe:  "|/home/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe testy"

Hit enter to notify testy owner...

bouncing subscribed users

	I have mailman, qmail, and the qmail-to-mailman.py script 
installed. New installation, this is the closest its ever been to 
working.
	Any posts to mailman lists get bounced with 'not allowed to 
post', even though they clearly are from subscribers.
	Any suggestions?
	Run check_perms, check_db, etc.
	For the test list in question I am list owner and sole 
subscriber. Actually, subscribed under dave <at> mail.difference.com.au as 
well just to be sure. Other lists have same problem.
	Thanks in advance

		David

	Note that if you use postfix as your MTA, this process can be 
automated.  See the POSTFIX.README file that should have come as part 
of the Mailman documentation.

	If you use sendmail as your MTA, it is possible to modify the 
above process to work for sendmail instead of postfix.  See 
<http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq04.049.htp>.

	However, if you use any other MTA, I'm not aware of an integrated 
method of achieving the same goals.

Re: mailman 2.1.5 subject line problem

Hello,

i am sorry i was not very consistent describing problem because i was
looking at the problem from the user point at first. That is why i said that
mailman does not pass letters with national characters in subject line. I
was not talking about encoded letter's source. After i investigeted sent
letter's source i described problem differently: from system view point. I
tried to switch on some encoding methods in my MUA and made hypothesis that
problem is not related to encoding.
But now i see that it is related only to windows encoding (with other
encodings: ISO, UTF is all right) and i guess it is not python problem
because i have installed 2.2.1 version.

Using Exim, once the initial install is done correctly, no aliases need be
messed with when creating or removing mailing lists.
