This is a follow-up to my question earlier today. Apparently, the
administrators of my server DO block mass-mailing based on a secret
quota scheme (they will not tell me how the quota is measured). This
is happening even though their service agreement says nothing about
the prohibition of solicited mailing lists.
That said, is there anyway to throttle the smartlist message processing so
that I can defeat their misguided SPAM-blocking?
Thanks Again,

Can 'moderators' file have comments in it say, starting with # or ! ?
I have a main moderator and a backup moderator. I want to put both emails in the file with the backup moderator's email commented out so that I can uncomment it when the main moderator is unavailable (and comment out main's email address).
Thanks

Hi!
It seems to me that smartlist inserts 'hostname -f' as hostname into the messages, when someone wants to unsubscibe or to subscribe.
How can I switch this to the real hostname for mail used by smail?
or better:
How can I define the adresses all myself, because I want to use the following construct: bla(a)domain.de forwarded to smartlist at bla(a)flop.swb.de. It would be fine if no one must use bla-request(a)flop.swb.de and could use a bla-request(a)domain.de...
Thanks

I'm attempting to maintain a moderated Smartlist from a Windows PC
(ie via e-mail). I've built a small SMTP client (in Delphi) that can massage
the message header to successfully send X-Commands.
But so far I have no luck in resending an 'Approved:' message back to
the list so that it is distributed. Does anyone know what header lines
need to be present, or if there's already a PC program that can do this for
me,
Thanks, Peter Wiltshire

Hi,
I am using smartlist with a moderator and it is
working fine but I've got a problem when I
approve a message containing attachment. It seems
that it does not recognize my approvement and send it
back to me instead of diffusing it.
Have you got an idea about this problem ??
Thanks.
Does anyone know if it is possible to get smartlist to
include in the body of the message (or as an additional header) the actual
address from the dist file that each message is sent to?
Frequently messages to my list bounce back to me from forwarded accounts
which have expired, and I can't track down the bad address in my dist
file. If I could see the original address as part of the bounced message
it would make life much easier.

Hi,
Has anybody had an idea about why smartlist does not work
when I attach a file to a message using a moderator.
It works fine without attachment. I saw that the header of the message
is different if there is or not an attachment, but I thought smartlist
was
smart enough to face the eventuality ?!
Well, if somebody know something, please, help me !!!
Thanks.
Hi,
I'm trying out to figure what is the syntax for unsubscription. I looks
if I use the code from
http://www.hartzler.net/smartlist/SmartList-FAQ.html#Section_3.2
that users have to say:
Subject: X-Command: unsubscribe , right?
It also applies to the message body, right?
Can someone explain me the sentence "Now X-Commands can go at the top of
the message body. Add a blank line between the X-Commands and any other
message content (as for instance with moderator approval)." from the above
URL? Can you post an example of such moderator approval?
I'm sorry for such stupid question, although I have been using majordomo
for years and procmail for 2 years, smartlist is not that intuitive and
the docs are not clear to me. :(
TIA

Hi,
I have recently configured smartlist and it look users cannot
unsubscribe or subscribe from the list:
This is what I see in the log:
procmail: Match on ! "^Subject:(.*[^a-z])?(Re:|erro|problem|((can)?not|.*n't)\>)"

I think I have somehow screwed up the configuration. ;( I did not use the -a option
whiel creating the list, according to my history. ;) Anyway, it look the archive server
running and trying to process administrative requests.
Could anyone help me. Thanks!
