Dear mailman developers, Problem in the format that the mail from the listserve arrives to our members. It looks very jumbled and not very user friendly for people who would just like to read the message. not very user friendly messages looks like this one: From: Nmptaor To: boardofficers Reply-to: Nmptaor X-Priority: 3 X-Mailer: UebiMiau 2.5 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-MSMail-Priority: Medium Importance: Medium Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1"; MIME-Version: 1.0 Message-Id: Subject: [Boardofficers] test Errors-To: boardofficers-admin <at> nmpta.org X-BeenThere: boardofficers <at> nmpta.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.0.8 Precedence: bulk List-Help: List-Post: List-Subscribe: List-Id: List-Unsubscribe: ,(Continue reading)

Attempting to do updates tonight, I ran into problems with upgrading help2man. I was able to manually update most other ports. The log for help2man says: :info:configure configure: error: perl module Locale::gettext required :info:configure shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_textproc_help2man/work/help2man-1.38.4" && ./configure --prefix=/opt/local --enable-nls " returned error 1 :error:configure Target org.macports.configure returned: configure failure: shell command failed (see log for details) :debug:configure Backtrace: configure failure: shell command failed (see log for details) port installed shows (among many others): gettext <at> 0.18.1.1_0 gettext <at> 0.18.1.1_2 (active) help2man <at> 1.38.2_0 (active) p5-locale-gettext <at> 1.05_3 (active) and port outdated shows: The following installed ports are outdated: help2man 1.38.2_0 < 1.38.4_0 ghostscript 9.00_4 < 9.01_0 ImageMagick 6.6.6-3_0 < 6.6.7-8_0 I'm hoping I don't have to go in and hack the port file for the two ports that are dependent on help2man so that they're looking for 1.38.2_0 instead of 1.38.4_0. Any better solutions?(Continue reading)

Mailman limit

Hi, I have an issue that I can't find an answer for on the wiki. Is there a limit on how many users can be part of the mailing list group? I'm running a Mac OS X 10.6 server that uses mailman and when I send mail via the mailing list to a group with 200+ users they keep getting multiple copies of the email ( up to 50 copies). I have to kill the mail system otherwise it would keep sending more copies. I have created a new mailing list with the same users and it does exactly the same thing.

bilingual list problem

I'm in Canada, which as you probably know is an officially bilingual (english and french) country. I am attempting to set up some mailman discussion lists, with bilingual footers for the messages. These are on my web hosting service, dreamhost.com. Unfortunately, when I have US english set as the default language, mailman strips out all the accented characters in the french portion of the footer. Using french as the default language prevents this from happening, but most of my list administrators want english for their admin pages. What I would like would be a way to set mailman to NOT strip out accented characters when english is set as the default language. Alternatively, is there a way to have the admin pages open in english when the default language is french? Thank you for your help! Henry

Add one of the following lines to mm_cfg.py depending on your preferred
character set
add_language('en', 'English (USA)','utf-8')
or
add_language('en', 'English (USA)','iso-8859-1')

There shouldn't be, but it is possible to misconfigure things between Mailman and the MTA such that things don't work well when lists have too many members. >I'm running a Mac OS X 10.6 server that uses mailman So maybe this is an issue for Apple? >and when I send mail via the mailing list to a group with 200+ users they keep getting multiple copies of the email ( up to 50 copies). >I have to kill the mail system otherwise it would keep sending more copies. > >I have created a new mailing list with the same users and it does exactly the same thing. What do you see in various logs such as the MTA's logs and Mailman's smtp and smtp-failure logs? My first guess is that the MTA is actually accepting some or all recipients of the message but is returning some status to Mailman indicating a retryable failure. If you have invalid local addresses on the list, this could be related to <http://bugs.python.org/issue5713>. In any case, I suggest setting SMTP_MAX_RCPTS = 10(Continue reading)

Beware:
If you use utf-8, you have to change all english templates to contain
the Unicode BOM-Bytes at the beginning.
