I want to remove html attachments from postings but the links in the FAQ don't work and seems to be quite old. Could someone give me a working solution for the removal of this garbage? Werner

I am using smartmail, for my mailing lists, and I have encountered a couple problems. One is I can't get the [listname] to stop repeating upon replies. I have read all the documentation I can find on this, and have tried the examples in the smartlist documentation. They don't work. The sample to simply add the [listname] to all message subject lines worked, but the prevention of repeating [listname] simply doesnt work. I am also having trouble trying to figure out how to manipulate the digest settings to make it go out every day regardless of size. If anyone here is willing to spend a few minutes on me to help me out, I would be so dang grateful you have no idea.... Thanks a million.. Mike --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Large posts getting duplicated
by Doug Mansfield 31 Oct '01

31 Oct '01

Posts to one of my lists that are larger than 4.5K are being duplicated. The archive only has a single entry. The message headers are the same for both messages (except for the outgoing ID and date stamps). And as near as I can tell, it does not happen to everyone on the list. Just to confirm it, I subed a free yahoo account and it received the duplicates. My sendmail logs show both messages being delivered. Any idea? -- Doug

What does someone have to do to get some help with smarlist? Is there no in between hiring a consultant, and having someone help me with a couple of items??? I'm trying to learn here, and I think my question is one of the most basic smartlist problems--can someone help me figure out why the examples in the documentation for preventing [listname] from repeating in the subject clearly does not work???? If the documentation isnt helpful, where else am I supposed to turn to learn how to configure this thing?? Please help- Mike --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Loading a list of email addresses and performance
by Austad, Jay 27 Oct '01

27 Oct '01

I'm planning on converting from ezmlm to Smartlist. How do I go about loading a text file of addresses into the list database? With ezmlm, I can just do: cat addresses.txt | xargs ezmlm-sub ~/DIR Is it something similar with Smartlist? Also, what email server does everyone recommend for maximum performance? I'm thinking Postfix or zmailer. Right now, I'm using qmail+ezmlm, and qmail spends A LOT of time processing queued mail because I have several lists with half a million subscribers or more. Basically, the smartlist server needs to just pass outgoing mail to my smarthost, but bounces and stuff are obviously going to come back to the Smartlist box. How does the performance of Smartlist compare with EZMLM? ---------- Jay Austad Network Administrator CBS Marketwatch 612.817.1271 austad(a)marketwatch.com <mailto:austad@marketwatch.com> http://cbs.marketwatch.com http://www.bigcharts.com

postfix/procmail doesn't pass on the subscriber's address to the smartlist
by Chunnuan Chen 24 Oct '01

24 Oct '01

Hi, I installed smartlist on my Mandrake 8.1 Linux box and created a mailing list. However when I tried to subscribe to the list, I got nothing back. On the server side, the maintainer got an email with the subject of "Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender". The following is the whole email: ------------------------------------- Subject: Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender Date: Tue, 23 Oct 2001 23:12:50 -0700 (PDT) From: MAILER-DAEMON(a)bioweircom.com (Mail Delivery System) To: bio93-request(a)bioweircom.org This is the Postfix program at host www.bioweircom.com. I'm sorry to have to inform you that the message returned below could not be delivered to one or more destinations. For further assistance, please send mail to <postmaster> If you do so, please include this problem report. You can delete your own text from the message returned below.

If the wrong address has been subscribed and you seem to be unable to fix it yourself, reply to this message now (quoting it entirely (for diagnostic purposes), and of course adding any comments you see fit). ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I checked the log for postfix and found out the following related lines: ---------------------------------- Oct 24 08:19:51 chench1 postfix/smtpd[22159]: connect from chench3.bioweircom.com[192.168.1.3] Oct 24 08:19:51 chench1 postfix/smtpd[22159]: 5ED151E565: client=chench3.bioweircom.com[192.168.1.3] Oct 24 08:19:51 chench1 postfix/cleanup[22160]: 5ED151E565: message-id=<3BD6D95D.AE6DF77F(a)sun.com> Oct 24 08:19:51 chench1 postfix/qmgr[22157]: 5ED151E565: from=<chunnuan.chen(a)sun.com>, size=613, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Oct 24 08:19:51 chench1 postfix/smtpd[22159]: disconnect from chench3.bioweircom.com[192.168.1.3] Oct 24 08:19:51 chench1 procmail[22164]: Error while writing to "log" Oct 24 08:19:51 chench1 postfix/pickup[22156]: BFD481E5A0: uid=417 from=<bio93-request(a)bioweircom.org> Oct 24 08:19:51 chench1 postfix/cleanup[22160]: BFD481E5A0: message-id=<20011024151951.BFD481E5A0(a)www.bioweircom.com> Oct 24 08:19:51 chench1 postfix/local[22162]: 5ED151E565: to=<bio93-request(a)bioweircom.org>, relay=local, delay=0, status=sent ("|exec /var/spool/listserv/.bin/flist bio93-request") Oct 24 08:19:51 chench1 postfix/cleanup[22160]: BFD481E5A0: to=<unknown>, relay=cleanup, delay=0, status=bounced (Message processing aborted: No recipients specified) Oct 24 08:19:51 chench1 postfix/cleanup[22194]: D88D21E565: message-id=<20011024151951.D88D21E565(a)www.bioweircom.com> Oct 24 08:19:51 chench1 postfix/qmgr[22157]: D88D21E565: from=<>, size=2451, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Oct 24 08:19:51 chench1 procmail[22196]: Error while writing to "log" Oct 24 08:19:52 chench1 postfix/pickup[22156]: 1EE9E1E5A0: uid=417 from=<postmaster> Oct 24 08:19:52 chench1 postfix/cleanup[22160]: 1EE9E1E5A0: message-id=<20011024151951.D88D21E565(a)www.bioweircom.com> Oct 24 08:19:52 chench1 postfix/qmgr[22157]: 1EE9E1E5A0: from=<postmaster(a)bioweircom.com>, size=2790, nrcpt=1 (queue active)Oct 24 08:19:52 chench1 postfix/local[22162]: D88D21E565: to=<bio93-request(a)bioweircom.org>, relay=local, delay=1, status=sent ("|exec /var/spool/listserv/.bin/flist bio93-request") Oct 24 08:19:52 chench1 procmail[22223]: Attempt to fake stamp by "jwang" Oct 24 08:19:52 chench1 postfix/local[22162]: 1EE9E1E5A0: to=<jwang(a)bioweircom.org>, relay=local, delay=0, status=sent ("|/usr/bin/procmail -o -a $DOMAIN -d $LOGNAME") --------------------------------------- It seems to me the postfix or the procmail didn't pass on the subscriber's email address to the smartlist.
