I am using Smartlist on my server and when I send email it is archived in the archive directory called "latest". I have set smartlist to archive the latest ten emails that I send to the list. However the latest email sent to the list keeps receiving a numeric name that continues to increase. How can I set up smartlist so that the numeric name for the latest ten emails sent to the list remain named 1 - 10?
Alan,
I recently added the linux mandrake 8.0 version of smartlist (3.13-4) onto a system that had a working version of postfix on it. I simply added the rpm with no problems. Creating the list was easy (i did this as root) and updated the aliases as per directions. The first message i sent complained of the "listserv" user id not existing - so i created a listserv user and made its home directory the "listserv" directory just above the .bin directory that runs the lists.
now when I send a message to the list it does pretty much nothing. I turned on logging and debugging by editing the rc.local file and changing the settings in there. Very little in the logs - nothing that jumps out. I tried both just adding people to the list member files and going thru the usual process of approving the subscribers for the list.
Anyone have any suggestions on how to best determine what is going on with this ?
Smartlist looked so easy to setup i can't figure out what could be messed up ?
Thanks in advance.

I maintain several lists and several members do not receive copies of the
posts they send. This happens on several lists and only affects a few
members.
Has this happened to anybody else and does anybody know of a solution?
Thanks,
Ellen

accept file contain emails of people permited to submit
rc.custom and rc.init are configer as follows

Can any of you seasoned listadmins direct me to someplace
on the 'Net that deals withh copyright, intellectual property, and
reserved rights issues that may arise from the hosting and adminsitration
of email mailing lists.
Thanks,

Does anyone know why the mailing-list name is missing from 'To:' field in
all my posts ?
Thanks
Nishi
Does anyone know how/if SmartList can be modified so that the
'Received:' headers from the original mail sent to a list are kept
intact and included in the messages sent to all the list members.
Thanks

Hi
I have the SmartList-3.13-1.i386.rpm from
http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/contrib/libc6/i386/SmartList-3.13-1.i386.html.
I am trying to run it under RedHat 7.0 on a relatively old box
(unfortunately too small for building the 3.15 version which I see is out
there in src form).
After the initial install and fixups (smrsh etc), I successfully can send a
mail to my-list-request AND get a good response back, saying "you were
subscribed". However, when I look at the dist file, it does not have any
email addresses in it. Upon inspection of the log file, it says that it
can't find multigram, which in fact is true, its not part of the rpm, nor
part of my RedHat 7 installation anywhere.
So I really have two questions:
1. Is there a mulitigram binary from the 3.13 version that I can get my
hands on?
OR
2. Is there a binary rpm for the 3.15 version that I should be using
instead?
I've tried my best to solve this without bugging you folks, but am really
stumped now.
Thanks!

Hello,
I'm using Smartlist 3.15 with sendmail 8.12.0 (all debian packages).
I've moved some list from a system with sendmail 8.9.3 and now for every
submission to the list I get the following error:
----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----
"|/var/list/.bin/flist listname-request"
(reason: Cannot open input)
(expanded from: <listname-request(a)mydomain.it>)
----- Transcript of session follows -----
flist: Can't find ".etc" in "/usr/sbin"
550 5.3.0 "|/var/list/.bin/flist listname-request"... Cannot open input
---
I didn't found any suggestions around the Net about this problem.
I've also tryed with a freshly created new list and the problem is the same.
Is this a Sendmail issue or a Smartlist issue?
I've also tryed to use the feature smrsh of sendmail, putting flist in
/usr/lib/sm.bin/ as described in the FAQ but the errors remains the same.
Any clue?
TIA.
Regards,
luca
