I've noticed that the web interface for this list is mailman? I'm trying to find a graphical interface for smartlist, and was wondering if mailman is a solution. Thnxs, dansan.

Re: procbounce unsubs the sender
by Zhiliang Hu 20 Nov '00

I and at least another person experience the same problem, although it does not ALWAYS occur (about 5% of the time, I guess) on my list. Do not know if the newer versions addressed the problem. Please refer to archives on this list with the Subject: "This should NOT be right" around March, 1999.

Smartlist
by Chris Green 20 Nov '00

20 Nov '00

I am trying to set up Smartlist (is there a separate list for that?). Do I need root access to do this? I have my own domain and shell access on the system where all mail to this domain gets delivered but I don't have root acces there. I can install Smartlist but it appears to need accesss to /usr/lib/aliases, is there any other way to do it? -- Chris Green (chris(a)areti.co.uk) Home: chris(a)isbd.demon.co.uk Work: cgreen(a)bcs.org.uk WWW: http://www.isbd.co.uk/

Moderating: How to approve without becoming sender?
by Jorge Astray 19 Nov '00

19 Nov '00

Hello, I have reviewed all the Smartlist FAQ and manuals and they all miss one point: + What is the way for a moderator to re-send an approved message without becoming the sender of the approved message? I have started moderating a list and since then, all messages seem to be posted by myself, and what is worst, answers are sent to me instead to the original sender. Maybe the trouble is the e-mail SW that I use (Pegasus), but my guess is that SmartList has to process somehow the message in order to clean all moderator data. Jorge Astray Rodriguez-Lafora

I see the xcommand.phtml page at several web sites, but have been unable to find the actual script. I'd like to get this up and running as quickly as possible, so don't want to mess around with writing my own script. I alreay have smartlist up and running just fine. -Adam

'Reply-To'
by Anne-Marie Oualit 14 Nov '00

14 Nov '00

Hi! I just started using SmartList yesterday. I've got "Reply-To: $listaddr" in my rc.custom file but it doesn't work for all subscribers. When I hit reply to some of the members' messages, the reply goes to the sender. I don't have this problem myself - I get the list address when I hit reply to my own messages. Does this have something to do with the way the various mail programs are set up? Kind regards, Anne-Marie Oualit Copenhagen, Denmark

SmartList for Dummies?
by Listmail 14 Nov '00

14 Nov '00

Hello, My host offers mailing lists through the installed SmartList program. I am also a reseller for said host, so my customers may also have mailing lists. Can you point me towards any resources that deal with SmartList specifically from the beginning end-users standpoint? End-users who do not have access via/(or don't want to use) telnet and also don't have access to modify the program itself, just their own directory files, and who also don't know a whole lot about programming. For instance, I've seen a lot of the same FAQs over the past few days saying to de-link the accept file from the dist file. I discovered quite by accident that if I deleted the accept file then recreated a new one, they were no longer linked. Now that is something a newbie can handle! Jo

List-* headers...
by Charlie Summers 14 Nov '00

14 Nov '00

Afternoon, folks. Although not directly SmartList-related, I'm wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of the RFCs detailing the List-* headers that are recommended for mailing lists; adding them to rc.submit.20 and .bin/digest should be trivial, assuming I can figure out what the "standard" proposal is.

choplist?
by Evan Knop 13 Nov '00

13 Nov '00

What is the current status of choplist? It is mentioned in the manuals, but none of the distributions I've seen (one RPM of 3.13, the 3.15 tarball from procmail.org, and a 3.10 tarball from a mirror) seem to contain this tool. I saw something in the HISTORY file for 3.12 [choplist wasn't counting addresses correctly], but all the documentation seems to make reference to it. Should I just use sendmail, or is there a current version of choplist?
