+These variables, grouped under the general list personality section,

+
+
real_name
+
Every mailing list has both a posting name and a real
+ name. The posting name shows up in urls and in email addresses,
+ e.g. the mylist in mylist@example.com. The posting
+ name is always presented in lower case, with alphanumeric
+ characters and no spaces. The list's real name is used in some

+
owner
+
This variable contains a list of email addresses, one address per
+ line, of the list owners. These addresses are used whenever the
+ list owners need to be contacted, either by the system or by end
+ users. Often, these addresses are used in combination with the
+ moderator addresses (see below).
+
+
+
+
moderator
+
This variable contains a list of email addresses, one address per
+ line, of the list moderators. These addresses are often used in
+ combination with the owner addresses. For example, when
+ you email mylist-owner@example.com, both the owner and
+ moderator addresses will receive a copy of the message.
+
+
+
+
description
+
In the general list overview page, which shows you every available
+ mailing list, each list is displayed with a short description.
+ The contents of this variable is that description. Note that in
+ emails from the mailing list, this description is also used in the
+ comment section of the To: address. This text should
+ be relatively short and no longer than one line.
+
+
+
+
info
+
This variable contains a longer description of the mailing list.
+ It is included at the top of the list's information page, and it
+ can contain HTML. However, blank lines will be automatically
+ converted into paragraph breaks. Preview your HTML though,
+ because unclosed or invalid HTML can prevent display of parts of
+ the list information page.
+
+
+
+
subject_prefix
+
This is a string that will be prepended to the
+ Subject: header of any message posted to the list.
+ For example, if a message is posted to the list with a
+ Subject: like:
+
+
+and the subject_prefix is [My List] (note the
+ trailing space!), then the message will be received like so:
+
+
+
+ Subject: [My List] This is a message
+
+
+
+If you leave subject_prefix empty, no prefix will be added
+ to the Subject:. Mailman is careful not to add a
+ prefix when the header already has one, as is the case in replies
+ for example. The prefix can also contain characters in the list's
+ preferred language. In this case, because of vagarities of the
+ email standards, you may or may not want to add a trailing space.
+
+
+
+
anonymous_list
+
This variable allows you to turn on some simple anonymizing
+ features of Mailman. When you set this option to Yes,
+ Mailman will remove or replace the From:,
+ Sender:, and Reply-To: fields of any
+ message posted to the list.
+
+
+Note that this option is simply an aid for anonymization, it
+ doesn't guarantee it. For example, a poster's identity could be
+ evident in their signature, or in other mail headers, or even in
+ the style of the content of the message. There's little Mailman
+ can do about this kind of identity leakage.

+Mailman sends notifications to the list administrators or list members
+under a number of different circumstances. Most of these
+notifications can be configured in this section, but see the Bounce
+Processing and Auto-responder categories for other notifications that
+Mailman can send.
+
+
+
+
send_reminders
+
By default Mailman sends all list members a monthly password
+ reminder. This notice serves two purposes. First, it reminds
+ people about all the lists they may be subscribed to on this
+ domain, including the lists where their subscription may be
+ disabled. Second, it reminds people about their passwords for
+ these lists, as well as the url for their personal options pages,
+ so that they can more easily configure their subscription options.
+
+
+Some people get annoyed with these monthly reminders, and they can
+ disable the reminders via their subscription options page. For
+ some lists, the monthly reminders aren't appropriate for any of
+ the members, so you can disable them list-wide by setting the
+ send_reminders variable to No.
+
+
+
+
welcome_msg
+
When new members are subscribed to the list, either by their own
+ action, or the action of a list administrator, a welcome message
+ can be sent to them. The welcome message contains some common
+ boilerplate information, such as the name of the list,
+ instructions for posting to the list, and the member's
+ subscription password. You can add additional information to the
+ welcome message by typing the text into the welcome_msg
+ text box. Note that because this text is sent as part of an
+ email, it should not contain HTML.
+
+
+
+
send_welcome_msg
+
This flag controls whether or not the welcome message is sent to
+ new subscribers.
+
+
+
+
goodbye_msg
+
Like the welcome_msg, a ``goodbye'' message can be sent to
+ members when they unsubscribe from the list. Unlike the welcome
+ message, there's no boilerplate for the goodbye message. Enter
+ the entire goodbye message you'd like unsubscribing members to
+ receive into the goodbye_msg text box.
+
+
+
+
send_goodbye_msg
+
This flag controls whether or not the goodbye message is sent to
+ unsubscribing members.
+
+
+
+
admin_immed_notify
+
List moderators get notifications of pending administrative
+ actions, such as subscription or unsubscription requests that
+ require moderator approval, or posted messages that are being held
+ for moderator approval. List moderators will always get a daily
+ summary of such pending requests, but they can also get immediate
+ notifications when such a request is made. The
+ admin_immed_notify variable controls whether these
+ immediate notifications are sent or not. It's generally a good
+ idea to leave this set to Yes.
+
+
+
+
admin_notify_mchanges
+
This variable controls whether the list administrators should get
+ notifications when members join or leave the list.
+
+
+
+
respond_to_post_requests
+
This variable controls whether the original sender of a posting
+ gets a notice when their message is held for moderator approval.
+
+
-Mailman sends notifications to the list administrators or list members
-under a number of different circumstances. Most of these
-notifications can be configured in this section, but see the Bounce
-Processing and Auto-responder categories for other notifications that
-Mailman can send.
+This section contains some miscellaneous settings for your mailing

-
send_reminders
-
By default Mailman sends all list members a monthly password
- reminder. This notice serves two purposes. First, it reminds
- people about all the lists they may be subscribed to on this
- domain, including the lists where their subscription may be
- disabled. Second, it reminds people about their passwords for
- these lists, as well as the url for their personal options pages,
- so that they can more easily configure their subscription options.
+
emergency
+
When this option is enabled, all list traffic is emergency
+ moderated, i.e. held for moderation. Turn this option on when
+ your list is experiencing a flamewar and you want a cooling off
+ period.
-Some people get annoyed with these monthly reminders, and they can
- disable the reminders via their subscription options page. For
- some lists, the monthly reminders aren't appropriate for any of
- the members, so you can disable them list-wide by setting the
- send_reminders variable to No.
+
+
new_member_options
+
Each member has a set of subscription options which they can use
+ to control how they receive messages and otherwise interact with
+ the list. While the members can change these settings by logging
+ into their personal options page, you might want to set the
+ default for a number of the member options. You can do that with
+ this variable, but see also the other categories for other member
+ defaults you can set.
-
-
welcome_msg
-
When new members are subscribed to the list, either by their own
- action, or the action of a list administrator, a welcome message
- can be sent to them. The welcome message contains some common
- boilerplate information, such as the name of the list,
- instructions for posting to the list, and the member's
- subscription password. You can add additional information to the
- welcome message by typing the text into the welcome_msg
- text box. Note that because this text is sent as part of an
- email, it should not contain HTML.
+This variable presents a set of checkboxes which control the
+ defaults for some of the member options. Conceal the
+ member's address specifies whether or not the address is
+ displayed in the list roster. Acknowledge the member's
+ posting controls whether or not Mailman sends an acknowledgement
+ to a member when they post a message to the list. Do not
+ send a copy of a member's own post specifies whether a member
+ posting to the list will get a copy of their own posting.
+ Filter out duplicate messages to list members (if possible)
+ specifies whether members who are explicitly listed as a recipient
+ of a message (e.g. via the Cc: header) will also get a
+ copy from Mailman.

This flag controls whether or not the welcome message is sent to
- new subscribers.
+Of course, members can always override these defaults by making
+ changes on their membership options page.
-
goodbye_msg
-
Like the welcome_msg, a ``goodbye'' message can be sent to
- members when they unsubscribe from the list. Unlike the welcome
- message, there's no boilerplate for the goodbye message. Enter
- the entire goodbye message you'd like unsubscribing members to
- receive into the goodbye_msg text box.
+
administrivia
+
This option specifies whether Mailman will search posted messages
+ for admimistrivia, in other words, email commands which
+ usually should be posted to the -request address for the
+ list. Setting this to Yes helps prevent such things as
+ unsubscribe messages getting erroneously posted to the list.
-
-
send_goodbye_msg
-
This flag controls whether or not the goodbye message is sent to
- unsubscribing members.
+If a message seems to contain administrivia, it is held for
+ moderator approval.
-
admin_immed_notify
-
List moderators get notifications of pending administrative
- actions, such as subscription or unsubscription requests that
- require moderator approval, or posted messages that are being held
- for moderator approval. List moderators will always get a daily
- summary of such pending requests, but they can also get immediate
- notifications when such a request is made. The
- admin_immed_notify variable controls whether these
- immediate notifications are sent or not. It's generally a good
- idea to leave this set to Yes.
+
max_message_size
+
This option specifies a maximum message size, in kilobytes, over
+ which the message will be held for moderator approval.
-
admin_notify_mchanges
-
This variable controls whether the list administrators should get
- notifications when members join or leave the list.
+
host_name
+
This option specifies the host name part of email addresses used
+ by this list. For example, this is the example.com part of
+ the posting address mylist@example.com.
+
+
+It's generally not a good idea to change this value, since its
+ default value is specified when the mailing list is created.
+ Changing this to an incorrect value could make it difficult to
+ contact your mailing list. Also not that the url used to visit
+ the list's pages is not configurable through the web interface.
+ This is because if you messed it up, you'd have to have the site
+ administrator fix it.
-
respond_to_post_requests
-
This variable controls whether the original sender of a posting
- gets a notice when their message is held for moderator approval.
+
include_rfc2369_headers
+
RFC 2369 is an internet standard that describes a bunch of
+ headers that mailing list managers should add to messages to make
+ it easier for people to interact with the list. Mail reading
+ programs which support this standard may provide buttons for easy
+ access to the list's archives, or for subscribing and
+ unsubscribing to the list. It's generally a good idea to enable
+ these headers as it provides for an improved user experience.
+ These headers are often called the List-* headers.
+
+
+However, not all mail readers are standards compliant yet, and if
+ you have a large number of members who are using non-compliant
+ mail readers, they may be annoyed at these headers. You should
+ first try to educate your members as to why these headers exist,
+ and how to hide them in their mail clients. As a last resort you
+ can disable these headers, but this is not recommended.
+
include_list_post_header
+
The List-Post: header is one of the headers
+ recommended by RFC 2369. However for some announce-only mailing
+ lists, only a very select group of people are allowed to post to
+ the list; the general membership is usually not allowed to post to
+ such lists. For lists of this nature, the List-Post:
+ header is misleading. Select No to disable the inclusion
+ of this header. (This does not affect the inclusion of the other
+ List-* headers.)

emergency
-
When this option is enabled, all list traffic is emergency
- moderated, i.e. held for moderation. Turn this option on when
- your list is experiencing a flamewar and you want a cooling off
- period.
-

-
-
new_member_options
-
Each member has a set of subscription options which they can use
- to control how they receive messages and otherwise interact with
- the list. While the members can change these settings by logging
- into their personal options page, you might want to set the
- default for a number of the member options. You can do that with
- this variable, but see also the other categories for other member
- defaults you can set.
-
-
-This variable presents a set of checkboxes which control the
- defaults for some of the member options. Conceal the
- member's address specifies whether or not the address is
- displayed in the list roster. Acknowledge the member's
- posting controls whether or not Mailman sends an acknowledgement
- to a member when they post a message to the list. Do not
- send a copy of a member's own post specifies whether a member
- posting to the list will get a copy of their own posting.
- Filter out duplicate messages to list members (if possible)
- specifies whether members who are explicitly listed as a recipient
- of a message (e.g. via the Cc: header) will also get a
- copy from Mailman.
-
-
-Of course, members can always override these defaults by making
- changes on their membership options page.

+times a day, or they can receive messages immediately whenever the
+message is posted to the list. This latter delivery mode is also
+called non-digest delivery. There are two administrative
+categories available for separately controlling digest and non-digest
+delivery. You can even disable one or the other forms of delivery
+(but not both).
-More details on membership management are described in the Membership
-Management section.
+Both kinds of delivery can have list-specific headers and footers
+added to them which can contain other useful information you want your
+list members to see. For example, you can include instructions for
+unsubscribing, or a url to the lists digest, or any other information.
+Non-digest deliveries can also be personalized which means
+certain parts of the message can contain information tailored to the
+member receiving the message. For example, the To: header
+will contain the address of the member when deliveries are
+personalized. Footers and headers can contain personalized
+information as well, such as a link to the individual user's options
+page.
+
+In addition, personalized messages will contain extra information that
+Mailman can use to unambiguously track bounces from members.
+Ordinarily, Mailman does some pattern recognition on bounce messages
+to determine list members whose addresses are no longer valid, but
+because of the vagaries of mail systems, and the countless forwards
+people can put in place, it's often the case that bounce messages
+don't contain any useful information in them. Personalized messages
+avoid this problem by encoding information in certain headers that
+unambiguously identify the recipient of a message. If that message
+bounces, Mailman will know exactly which member it was intended for.
+
+
+Note that because personalization requires extra system resources, it
+must be enabled by the site administrator before you can choose it.
+
+
+Here are the variables which control non-digest delivery:
+
+
+
+
nondigestable
+
This option controls whether members can receive immediate
+ delivery or not. If not, they will be forced to receive messages
+ in digests. You can't disable non-digest delivery if digests are
+ already disabled.
+
+
+
+
personalize
+
This option turns on message personalization.
+
+
+
+
msg_header
+
This text box lets you enter information that will be included in
+ the header of every non-digest message sent through the
+ list.
+
+
+See below for more information on what can go in the headers and
+ footers. If you leave this text box empty, no header will be
+ added.
+
+
+
+
msg_footer
+
Just like with the header, you can add a footer to every message.
+ The same rules apply to footers as apply to headers.
+
+
+
+
+Headers and footers can contain any text you want. For non-English
+lists, the headers and footers can contain any character in the
+character set of the list's preferred language. The headers and
+footers can also contain substitution variables which Mailman
+will fill in with information taken from the mailing list. These
+substitutions are in Python string interpolation format, where
+something like %(list_name)s is substituted with he name of
+the mailing list. Note that the trailing "s" is
+required2.
+
+
+For example, a footer containing the following text:
+
+
+
+This is the \%(list_name)s mailing list
+Description: \%(description)s
+
+
+
+might get attached to postings like so:

+
+
list_name
+
This is the canonical name of the mailing list. In other words

+
+
+
+
host_name
+
This is the domain name part of the email address for this list.
+
+

+ is configured.
+
+
+
+
+Note that real_name, host_name, description, and
+info substitution variables take their values from the list
+configuration variables of the same name.
+
+
+When personalization is enabled, the following substitution variables
+are also available:
+
+
+
+
user_address
+
The address of the recipient of the message, coerced to lower case.
+
+
+
+
user_delivered_to
+
The case-preserved address that the user subscribed to the mailing
+ list with4.
+
+
The site administrator can configure lists to use a
+simpler interpolation format, where $list_name or
+${list_name} would be substituted with the mailing list's
+name. Ask your site administrator if the've configured your list this
+way.
+
+
Usually it makes no difference which of
+ user_address and user_delivered_to is used, but it's
+ important to remember that they can be different. When they're
+ different, Mailman always uses the lower case address as the key
+ to the member's subscription information, but it always delivers
+ messages to the case-preserved version.
+
+
-Mailman delivers messages to users via two modes. List members can
-elect to receive postings in bundles call digests one or a few
-times a day, or they can receive messages immediately whenever the
-message is posted to the list. This latter delivery mode is also
-called non-digest delivery. There are two administrative
-categories available for separately controlling digest and non-digest
-delivery. You can even disable one or the other forms of delivery
-(but not both).
+Digest delivery is a way to bundle many articles together into one
+package, which can be delivered once per day (if there were any posted
+articles), or whenever the package is bigger than a specified limit.
+Some users may prefer this style of delivery for higher traffic lists
+since they will receive fewer messages.
-Both kinds of delivery can have list-specific headers and footers
-added to them which can contain other useful information you want your
-list members to see. For example, you can include instructions for
-unsubscribing, or a url to the lists digest, or any other information.
+Mailman supports two standard digest formats, and if digests are
+enabled, users can select which of the two formats they receive. One
+is MIME digests, where each message is an attachment inside a
+multipart/digest. This format also contains a summary
+table of contents, and of course the an optional header and footer,
+and it retains most of the headers of the original messages.
-Non-digest deliveries can also be personalized which means
-certain parts of the message can contain information tailored to the
-member receiving the message. For example, the To: header
-will contain the address of the member when deliveries are
-personalized. Footers and headers can contain personalized
-information as well, such as a link to the individual user's options
-page.
+The second type is called ``plaintext'' digests because they are
+readable in mail readers that don't support MIME. Actually, they
+adhere to the RFC 1153 digest standard. The retain some, but not
+all of the original messages, but can also include a summary and
+headers and footers.
-In addition, personalized messages will contain extra information that
-Mailman can use to unambiguously track bounces from members.
-Ordinarily, Mailman does some pattern recognition on bounce messages
-to determine list members whose addresses are no longer valid, but
-because of the vagaries of mail systems, and the countless forwards

-don't contain any useful information in them. Personalized messages
-avoid this problem by encoding information in certain headers that
-unambiguously identify the recipient of a message. If that message
-bounces, Mailman will know exactly which member it was intended for.
+Like non-digest delivery, you can enable or disable digest delivery,
+but you cannot disable both types of delivery. You can specify
+different headers and footers for digest and non-digest deliveries.
+You cannot personalize digest deliveries.
-Note that because personalization requires extra system resources, it
-must be enabled by the site administrator before you can choose it.
+As list administrator, you may want to send an urgent message to all
+list members, bypassing the normal digest bundling. To do this, send
+the message with a Urgent: header, where the value of the
+header is the list administrator's password. Non-digest members will
+receive the message like normal, but digest members will receive the
+message immediately5.

-
list_name
-
This is the canonical name of the mailing list. In other words
- it's the posting address of the list3.
+
digest_size_threshold
+
Normally, digest members get at least one message per day, if
+ there have been any messages posted to the list. However, for
+ high volume lists, you may want to send out digests when the size
+ has reached a certain threshold, otherwise, the one digest they
+ receive could be huge. This variable controls the size threshold
+ by specifying the maximum digest size in kilobytes. Note that
+ this threshold isn't exact. Set this variable to zero to specify
+ that there is no size threshold, in which case no more than one
+ digest will be sent out per day.
-
host_name
-
This is the domain name part of the email address for this list.
+
digest_send_periodic
+
This variable actually controls whether or not a digest is sent

+ msg_header, except for the personalization variables.
-
user_delivered_to
-
The case-preserved address that the user subscribed to the mailing
- list with4.
+
digest_footer
+
Just like with the header, you can add a footer to every message.
+ The same rules apply to digest footers as apply to digest headers.
-
user_password
-
The user's password, in clear text.
+
digest_volume_frequency
+
Each digest is numbered with a volume and an issue. This variable
+ controls how often a new digest volume is sent. When the digest
+ volume number is incremented, the issue number is reset to 1.
-
user_name
-
The user's full name.
+
_new_volume
+
This is an action variable, which forces an increment of the
+ volume number as soon as you submit the form.
-
user_optionsurl
-
The url to the user's personal options page.
+
_send_digest_now
+
This is another action variable. Select Yes, submit the
+ form, and the current digest is packaged up and sent to digest
+ members, regardless of size (well, there has to be at least one
+ message in the digest).
The site administrator can configure lists to use a
-simpler interpolation format, where $list_name or
-${list_name} would be substituted with the mailing list's
-name. Ask your site administrator if the've configured your list this
-way.
-
-
Usually it makes no difference which of
- user_address and user_delivered_to is used, but it's
- important to remember that they can be different. When they're
- different, Mailman always uses the lower case address as the key
- to the member's subscription information, but it always delivers
- messages to the case-preserved version.
+
-Digest delivery is a way to bundle many articles together into one
-package, which can be delivered once per day (if there were any posted
-articles), or whenever the package is bigger than a specified limit.
-Some users may prefer this style of delivery for higher traffic lists
-since they will receive fewer messages.
+The Privacy category lets you control how much of the list's
+information is public, as well as who can send messages to your list.
+It also contains some spam detection filters. Note that this section
+is not used to control whether your list's archives are public or
+private; for that, use the category.
-Mailman supports two standard digest formats, and if digests are
-enabled, users can select which of the two formats they receive. One
-is MIME digests, where each message is an attachment inside a
-multipart/digest. This format also contains a summary
-table of contents, and of course the an optional header and footer,
-and it retains most of the headers of the original messages.
+There are four sub-categories:
-
-The second type is called ``plaintext'' digests because they are
-readable in mail readers that don't support MIME. Actually, they
-adhere to the RFC 1153 digest standard. The retain some, but not
-all of the original messages, but can also include a summary and
-headers and footers.
+
+
Subscription rules - i.e. the rules for joining and leaving
+ your mailing list
-Like non-digest delivery, you can enable or disable digest delivery,
-but you cannot disable both types of delivery. You can specify
-different headers and footers for digest and non-digest deliveries.
-You cannot personalize digest deliveries.
+
+
Sender filters - the rules for who may post messages to your
+ list
-As list administrator, you may want to send an urgent message to all
-list members, bypassing the normal digest bundling. To do this, send
-the message with a Urgent: header, where the value of the
-header is the list administrator's password. Non-digest members will
-receive the message like normal, but digest members will receive the
-message immediately5.
+
+
Recipient filters - moderation rules based on the recipient of
+ the message
-Here are the variables which control digest delivery:
+
+
Spam filters - some regular expression based rules for header
+ matching
+
+
-
-
digestable
-
The option controls whether members can receive digest deliveries
- or not. If not, they will be forced to receive immediate
- deliveries. You can't disable digests if non-digests are already
- disabled.
+The sender, recipient, and spam filtering rules are part of the
+general list moderation features of Mailman. When a message is posted
+to the list, it is matched against a number of criteria, the outcome
+of which determines whether the message is reflected to the membership
+or not. In general, the outcome is one of four states:
-
-
digest_is_default
-
Controls which style of delivery is the default for new members.
- You can choose Regular (non-digest) or Digest
- delivery.
-
-
-
mime_is_default_digest
-
If a member is allowed to choose digests, this variable controls
- which is the default digest style they will receive. Plain
- digests are RFC 1153 format as described above.
+
+
Approved or Accepted - the message may be sent on to the
+ members of the mailing list.
-
-
digest_size_threshold
-
Normally, digest members get at least one message per day, if
- there have been any messages posted to the list. However, for
- high volume lists, you may want to send out digests when the size
- has reached a certain threshold, otherwise, the one digest they
- receive could be huge. This variable controls the size threshold
- by specifying the maximum digest size in kilobytes. Note that
- this threshold isn't exact. Set this variable to zero to specify
- that there is no size threshold, in which case no more than one
- digest will be sent out per day.
+
+
Hold - the message will be held for moderator approval. The
+ list owners and moderators will then have to explicitly approve
+ the message before the list members will see it.
-
-
digest_send_periodic
-
This variable actually controls whether or not a digest is sent
- daily when the size threshold has not yet been met. If set to
- No, then digests will only be sent when they are bigger
- than digest_size_threshold.
+
+
Reject - the message is bounced back to the original sender,
+ often with a notice containing the reason the message was
+ rejected. The list members never see rejected messages.
-
-
digest_header
-
This text box lets you enter information that will be included in
- the header of every digest message sent through the list. The
- same information can go in this header as can go in the
- msg_header, except for the personalization variables.
+
+
Discard - the message is simply thrown away without further
+ processing.
+
+
-
-
digest_footer
-
Just like with the header, you can add a footer to every message.
- The same rules apply to digest footers as apply to digest headers.
+Many of the fields in this section are text boxes accepting addresses,
+one per line. Unless otherwise noted, these also accept regular
+expressions which will be matched against an address, if the line
+begins with a (caret) character.
-
-
digest_volume_frequency
-
Each digest is numbered with a volume and an issue. This variable
- controls how often a new digest volume is sent. When the digest
- volume number is incremented, the issue number is reset to 1.
-
-
-
_new_volume
-
This is an action variable, which forces an increment of the
- volume number as soon as you submit the form.

+This subcategory controls the rules for exposing the existance of this
+list, and for what new members must do in order to subscribe to the
+list.
-There are four sub-categories:
-
-
-
Subscription rules - i.e. the rules for joining and leaving
- your mailing list
-
-
-
-
Sender filters - the rules for who may post messages to your
- list
+
+
advertised
+
This option controls whether this list will show up in the list
+ overview for the site. Normally, an overview contains the name
+ and short description of every mailing list in the virtual
+ domain. By setting this variable to No, it will not show
+ up in this overview, nor will it show up in the administrative
+ overview. The only way then to find the list is to guess (or
+ know!) its name.

subscribe_policy
+
This option controls the steps that a new member must take to join
+ the list. The available options may differ based on some defaults
+ that the site administrator chooses. They are:
-
Approved or Accepted - the message may be sent on to the
- members of the mailing list.
+
None - No verification is done on the subscribing
+ member. This is also called open subscriptions and is
+ generally disabled by default. The site administrator must

+ will not be presented to you.
-
Hold - the message will be held for moderator approval. The
- list owners and moderators will then have to explicitly approve
- the message before the list members will see it.
+
Confirm - An email confirmation step is required before the
+ address is added to the list. When a member requests
+ subscription, either via the web page or by sending a
+ message to yourlist-join@example.com, Mailman
+ will send a confirmation message to the requesting address.
+ This mail-back confirmation contains a unique identifier,
+ which the requester can present to Mailman in order to
+ confirm their subscription. This can be done either by
+ replying to the mail-back, or by visiting the url in the
+ mail-back message. The url points to a page that lets the
+ user either discard or confirm their request.
-
Reject - the message is bounced back to the original sender,
- often with a notice containing the reason the message was
- rejected. The list members never see rejected messages.
+
Require approval - All subscription requests are held for
+ approval of the list moderator. No mail-back confirmation
+ is sent, but the list admins will recieve a message
+ indicating that approval is pending.
-
Discard - the message is simply thrown away without further
- processing.
+
Confirm and approve - Here, a mail-back notice must first
+ be confirmed by the requester. Once confirmed, the list
+ moderator must then approve the request. This is the most
+ secure method for users to subscribe since it both verifies
+ the requesting address, and forces the list moderators to
+ approve the request.
+
+
-Many of the fields in this section are text boxes accepting addresses,
-one per line. Unless otherwise noted, these also accept regular
-expressions which will be matched against an address, if the line
-begins with a (caret) character.
+
+
unsubscribe_policy
+
Specifies whether the list moderator's approval is required for
+ unsubscription requests. No is highly recommended, since
+ it is exceedingly impolite to not allow people to leave a mailing
+ list whenever they want (i.e. opt-out). Yes is useful in
+ some specialized contexts; e.g. you may not want to allow
+ employees to unsubscribe from the company newsletter.
+
+
ban_list
+
This contains a list of addresses (or regular expressiosn), one
+ per line, that are banned from ever subscribing to your mailing
+ list. If a match occurs during the subscription process, the
+ request will be automatically rejected, and the requester will get
+ a rejection notice. You can use this to permanently ban
+ troublesome posters to a members-only list.
-
-
-Subsections
+
+
+
private_roster
+
This specifies who is allowed to view the roster of member
+ addresses. If you choose Anyone, then the list membership
+ is completely public. You can limit exposure of the roster to
+ just list members, or just to the list administrators. In the
+ former case, a user must enter a valid member's address and
+ password before they can view the roster. In the latter case, a
+ list administrator's password must be enter; if a matching admin
+ password is entered, address field is ignored.
+
+
+
+
obscure_addresses
+
Controls whether some simple obfuscation of addresses is used when
+ member addresses are included on web pages. This should reduce
+ the opportunity for email address harvesting by spammers, although
+ it probably doesn't eliminate it.
+
-This subcategory controls the rules for exposing the existance of this

+You can control whether new members get their moderation flag
+ turned on or off by default when they subscribe to the list. By

+ turning the flag on, you can quarantine new member postings to
+ make sure that they meet your criteria for netiquette, topicality,
+ etc. Once you determine that the new member understands the
+ community's posting rules, you can turn off their moderation flag
+ and let their postings go through unstopped.
+E-newsletter style lists can also be set up by using the
+ moderation flag. By setting the member_moderation_action
+ to Reject, and by turning off the moderation flag for just
+ the few approved senders, your list will operate in essentially a
+ one-way direction. Note that you'd also need to reject or discard
+ postings from non-members.
-
-
None - No verification is done on the subscribing
- member. This is also called open subscriptions and is
- generally disabled by default. The site administrator must
- allow list admins to choose this option; if not, this option
- will not be presented to you.
+
+
+
member_moderation_action
+
This is the action to take for postings from a member who's
+ moderation flag is set. For typical discussion lists, you'll
+ likely set this to Hold so that the list moderator will get
+ a chance to manually approve, reject, or discard the message. For
+ e-newsletter and announcement lists, you might want to set this to
+ Reject or Discard.
+
+
+Note that when a moderated member posts to your list, and the
+ member_moderation_action is set to Hold, the message
+ will appear on the administrative requests page. When you dispose
+ of the message, you will be given an opportunity to clear the
+ moderation flag at the same time. If you're quarantining new
+ posts, this makes it very convenient to both approve a new
+ member's post and de-moderate them at the same time.
-

+These policies control the automatic bounce processing system in
+Mailman. Here's an overview of how it works:
+
+
+When a bounce is received, Mailman tries to extract two pieces of
+information from the message: the address of the member the message
+was intended for, and the severity of the problem causing the bounce.
+The severity can be either hard for fatal errors, or
+soft for transient errors. When in doubt, a hard severity is
+used.
+
+
+If no member address can be extracted from the bounce, then the bounce
+message is usually discarded. Every member has a bounce score,
+initialized at zero, and every time we encounter a bounce from a
+member we increment that member's score. Hard bounces increment by 1
+while soft bounces increment by 0.5. We only increment the bounce
+score once per day, so even if we receive ten hard bounces from a
+member per day, their score will increase by only 1 for that day.
+
+
+When a member's bounce score is greater than the bounce score
+threshold (see below), the member's subscription is disabled. Once
+disabled, the member will not receive any postings from the list until
+their membership is explicitly re-enabled, either by the list
+administrator or the user. However, they will receive occasional
+reminders that their membership has been disabled, and these reminders
+will include information about how to re-enable their membership. You

+
+
+There is one other important configuration variable; after a certain

+to the frequency and traffic volume of your list.
-
bounce_matching_headers
-
This variable contains header regular expressions, one per line,
- and if any of a message's headers matches one of these patterns,
- it will be held for moderation. The format is a colon separated
- header and value, where the header is case insensitive and the
- value is any valid Python regular expression. Lines that start
- with # are ignored.
+
bounce_processing
+
Specifies whether or not this list should do automatic bounce
+ processing.
-This variable can be used to catch known spammers by writing
- regexps that match against To: or Cc:
- lines, or known-bad Message-ID:s. Perhaps more useful
- though are patterns that match headers added by spam detection
- tools higher up in the tool chain. For example, you might
- configure SpamAssassin to add an X-Spam-Score: header
- with between zero and 5 stars depending on the spam score. Then
- you can add a line to this variable like:
+
+
bounce_score_threshold
+
This is the bounce score above which a member's subscription will
+ be automatically disabled. When the subscription is re-enabled,
+ their bounce score will be reset to zero. This value can be a
+ floating point number.
-
- X-Spam-Score: [*]{3,5}
-
+
+
bounce_info_stale_after
+
Thenumber of days after which a member's bounce information is
+ considered stale. If no new bounces have been received in the
+ interrim, the bounce score is reset to zero. This value must be
+ an integer.
-This line will match from 3 to 5 stars in the value of this
- field.
+
+
bounce_you_are_disabled_warnings
+
The number of notices a disabled member will receive before their
+ address is removed from the mailing list's roster. Set this to 0
+ to immediately remove an address from the list once their bounce
+ score exceeds the threshold. This value must be an integer.
+
+
+
+
bounce_you_are_disabled_warnings_interval
+
The number of days between each disabled notification.
+
+
+
+
bounce_unrecognized_goes_to_list_owner
+
This variable controls whether unrecognized bounces are discarded,
+ or forwarded on the list administrator. The bounce detector isn't
+ perfect, although personalization can make it much more accurate.
+ The list owner may want to receive unrecognized bounces so that
+ they can manually disable or remove such members.
+
+
+
+
bounce_notify_owner_on_disable
+
This option controls whether or not the list owner is notified
+ when a member's subscription is automatically disabled due to
+ their bounce threshold being reached.
+
+
+
+
bounce_notify_owner_on_removal
+
This option controls whether or not the list owner is notified
+ when a member is removed from the list after their disabled
+ notifications have been exhausted.
-These policies control the automatic bounce processing system in
-Mailman. Here's an overview of how it works:
-
-
-When a bounce is received, Mailman tries to extract two pieces of
-information from the message: the address of the member the message
-was intended for, and the severity of the problem causing the bounce.
-The severity can be either hard for fatal errors, or
-soft for transient errors. When in doubt, a hard severity is
-used.
-
-
-If no member address can be extracted from the bounce, then the bounce
-message is usually discarded. Every member has a bounce score,
-initialized at zero, and every time we encounter a bounce from a
-member we increment that member's score. Hard bounces increment by 1
-while soft bounces increment by 0.5. We only increment the bounce
-score once per day, so even if we receive ten hard bounces from a
-member per day, their score will increase by only 1 for that day.
-
-
-When a member's bounce score is greater than the bounce score
-threshold (see below), the member's subscription is disabled. Once
-disabled, the member will not receive any postings from the list until
-their membership is explicitly re-enabled, either by the list
-administrator or the user. However, they will receive occasional
-reminders that their membership has been disabled, and these reminders
-will include information about how to re-enable their membership. You
-can control both the number of reminders the member will receive and
-the frequency with which these reminders are sent.
-
-
-There is one other important configuration variable; after a certain
-period of time - during which no bounces from the member are received
-- the bounce information is considered stale and discarded. Thus by
-adjusting this value, and the score threshold, you can control how
-quickly bouncing members are disabled. You should tune both of these
-to the frequency and traffic volume of your list.

+
archive_volume_frequency
+
Controls how Pipermail splits messages in the archive. The most

-Mailman provides a set of web pages that list members use to get
-information about the list, or manage their membership options. There
-are also list archive pages, for browsing an online web-based archive
-of the list traffic. These are described in more detail in the GNU
-Mailman user's manual.
+When mail enters the system from your mail server, it is dropped into
+one of several Mailman queues depending on the address the
+message was sent to. For example, if your system has a mailing list
+named mylist and your domain is example.com, people can
+post messages to your list by sending them to
+mylist@example.com. These messages will be dropped into the
+incoming queue, which is also colloquially called the
+moderate-and-munge queue. The incoming queue is where most of
+the approval process occurs, and it's also where the message is
+prepared for sending out to the list membership.
-Mailman also provides a set of pages for configuring an individual
-list, as well as a set of pages for disposing of posting and
-subscription requests.
+There are separate queues for the built-in archiver, the bounce
+processor, the email command processor, as well as the outgoing email
+and news queues. There's also a queue for messages generated by the
+Mailman system. Each of these queues typically has one queue
+runner (or ``qrunner'') that processes messages in the queue. The
+qrunners are idle when there are no messages to process.
-For a mailing list called mylist hosted at the domain
-lists.example.com, you would typically access the administrative
-pages by going to http://lists.example.com/mailman/admin/mylist.
-The first time you visit this page, you will be presented with a login
-page, asking for the list owner's password. When you enter the
-password, Mailman will store a session cookie in your browser, so you
-don't have to re-authenticate for every action you want to take. This
-cookie is stored only until you exit your browser.
+Every message in the queues are represented by two files, a message
+file and a metadata file. Both of these files share the same base
+name, which is a combination of a unique hash and the Unix time that
+the message was received. The metadata file has a suffix of
+.db and the message file has a suffix of either .msg if
+stored in plain text, or .pck if stored in a more efficient
+internal representation1.
-To access the administrative requests page, you'd visit
-http://lists.example.com/mailman/admindb/mylist (note the

-owner password. Again, a session cookie is dropped in your browser.
-Note also that if you've previously logged in as the list owner, you
-do not need to re-login to access the administrative requests page.
+As a message moves through the incoming queue, it performs various
+checks on the message, such as whether it matches one of the
+moderation criteria, or contains disallowed MIME types. Once a
+message is approved for sending to the list membership, the message is
+prepared for sending by deleting, adding, or changing message headers,
+adding footers, etc. Messages in the incoming queue may also be
+stored for appending to digests.

Before you can run Mailman, you need to make sure that
-Python is installed. Mailman 2.1
-requires at least Python 2.1.3, although Python 2.2.2 is
-recommended. Most GNU/Linux systems come with Python pre-installed, so
-you just need to make sure you're running an up-to-date version. You
-can do this by executing the following at your shell's command line:
+
You must have the
+Python
+interpreter installed somewhere on your system. Currently Python 2.1
+or newer is required, with Python 2.3 or 2.4 being recommended. Mailman
+should work with latest patch release on any Python branch from 2.1 to
+2.4, which as of this writing (30-May-2005) is
+Python 2.1.3,
+Python 2.2.3,
+Python 2.3.5, and
+Python 2.4.1.
+
+
Note that because Python 2.1 and 2.2 are no longer being developed, and
+only critical bugs are being fixed on the Python 2.3 branch, it is recommended
+that you upgrade to Python 2.4. It is possible that support for Python 2.1
+and 2.2 will be dropped in a future release of Mailman. Python 2.3 support
+will most likely be maintained for the duration of the Mailman 2.1 series.
+
+
Most GNU/Linux systems and MacOSX come with Python pre-installed, so you
+just need to make sure you're running an up-to-date version. You can do this
+by executing the following at your shell's command line:
% python -V
-Python 2.1.3
+Python 2.4.1
If your Python executable doesn't understand the -V
option, it's definitely too old!

You will also need an SMTP server (a.k.a. mail transport agent or
-MTA) for mail delivery and reception. Mailman should work
-well with any of the most popular Unix mail servers such as
-Postfix,
-Exim,
-Sendmail and
-qmail.
-
-
You will also need a web server.
-Apache is certainly the most
-popular, is available for all Unix systems, and works great with
-Mailman.
-
-
To install Mailman from the sources, you will also need an ANSI C
-compiler. The
-GNU C compiler
-gcc 2.8.1 or later is known to work well.
+
You must have a mail server (MTA) that you can send messages to, and a
+web server that supports the CGI/1.1 API.
+Apache makes a fine choice
+for web server, and MTAs such as
+Postfix,
+Exim,
+Sendmail, and
+qmail
+should work just fine.

You will need an ANSI C compiler to build Mailman's security
