Using the command line (was Re: List all users on one page)

There are quite a variety of tutorials, all of which are rather out of 
scope for this list.  Search for "command line tutorial" or somesuch in 
google and you'll find plenty of links.

Here's one for linux: http://www.linuxcommand.org/
And here's for windows: 
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial76.html

(I haven't used either of those, since I learned the command line 
several decades ago, but at a glance they look reasonable.)

If those don't suit, many local libraries and colleges can introduce you 
to someone who can do one-on-one training, assuming you're willing to 
pay for an hour of someone's time.

Did you see my initial reply in that thread at
<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2010-April/069315.html>?

If not, see it. If you did see that and you can't do this from the web
admin interface, your Mailman must be 2.1.9 or older. If that is the
case, and as it appears, it is hosted on a server that you don't have
command line access to, then you have no way to change
admin_member_chunksize from it's default value to get all the members
on one page.

It's Privacy options... -> Spam filters -> header_filter_rules

You first need to download and install Python on your Windows XP box.
The windows installer for Python 2.6.5 is at
<http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.6.5/python-2.6.5.msi>

Then, if your list's web admin interface were for example
<http://www.example.com/mailman/admin/listname>, you would at a cmd
prompt type

cd (the folder where you saved mailman-subscribers.py)
python mailman-subscribers.py -c -o output-file.csv www.example.com
listname password

The last line starting with python and ending with password is all one
line, not wrapped as here. output-file.csv is the name of the file to
receive the csv and password is the list's admin password.

You might also need to use the -u option if the admin interface URL is
not of the above form.

Re: Block reply to all

I tried this an I'm not getting any header.  I tried it for non-digest
options and digest options.

If you put text in msg_header and saved that change and then sent a
post to that list and the post as received from the list didn't
contain the header text, it may be because the post to the list was
multipart or HTML and the header was added as a separate MIME part
which your mail client doesn't display.

See the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/84A9> for more on this.

If the header is not added in any form at all, I cannot explain why. Do
messages from your lists contain the default (or other) msg_footer?

Re: get list of users

This did exactly what I needed.  Thanks. If I want others to be able to do
this, will they need to download
http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.6.5/python-2.6.5.msi?

Re: Block reply to all

That seems to be the issue.  When I looked at the email from my work email I saw the header text that was added,
but my message was added as an attachment.  I like the header text to be added and the message not to appear as
an attachment.  If there is no way to do this, I'll just live with it.

As it says in the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/84A9> (option 2), if
the incoming post is plain text only or if the list's content filtering
is set to remove all non-plain text parts, the msg_header text will be
prepended to the plain text message body. Otherwise the msg_header text
will be added as a separate MIME part (attachment).

I may seem obtuse about this, but it would help me to help you if you
explained in terms of simple scenarios what it is you want.

For example, user x sends a post to list y. user z receives the post
from the list.

a) I want user z to only be able to reply to user x and otherwise to be
required to send a new, original, non-reply message to the list, or
b) I want user z to be able to reply to user x only or to the list only,
but not to both, or
c) I want user z to be able to reply only to the list and not directly
to user x at all.

Those are only examples, but I would like to know what you would like to
have happen.
