I have create it like in manual, but i don't receive any email. here parameter of my mailing list: Client: client1 Domain: domain.com Listname: liste001 Email: [email protected] Password: ******** In manual it's write :"list administrator will receive an email with all important details..." But witch email is it? where i can configure it. The 2 link in manual:http://example.com/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/testlist and http://example.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/testlist don't work. Can you help me? Thank's
The list you created is named "liste001" and not "testlist" as the example links in the manual and your server is not named example.com. Replace testlist with liste001 and example.com with the hostname of your server in the links.
Sorry, I haven't modify links in my post but I have do that with with my parameters, but it's don't work. The mail i must receive by creating mailing is witch one: the email I enter in mailing list or another? Thanks
Thats the email address that you enter into the email field when you create a list. Are you sure that you installed and configured mailman properly before you installed ispconfig and that you started mailman?
Its pre-configured distribution, i will check that an post an answers when done. Thanks you for help, and for ispconfig.
The installation steps for mailman are: Since version 3.0.4, ISPConfig also allows you to manage (create/modify/delete) Mailman mailing lists. If you want to make use of this feature, install Mailman as follows: apt-get install mailman Before we can start Mailman, a first mailing list called mailman must be created: newlist mailman root@server1:~# newlist mailman Enter the email of the person running the list: <-- admin email address, e.g. [email protected] Initial mailman password: <-- admin password for the mailman list To finish creating your mailing list, you must edit your /etc/aliases (or equivalent) file by adding the following lines, and possibly running the `newaliases' program: ## mailman mailing list mailman: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post mailman" mailman-admin: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman admin mailman" mailman-bounces: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman bounces mailman" mailman-confirm: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman confirm mailman" mailman-join: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman join mailman" mailman-leave: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman leave mailman" mailman-owner: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman owner mailman" mailman-request: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman request mailman" mailman-subscribe: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe mailman" mailman-unsubscribe: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe mailman" Hit enter to notify mailman owner... <-- ENTER root@server1:~# Open /etc/aliases afterwards... vi /etc/aliases ... and add the following lines: [...] mailman: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post mailman" mailman-admin: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman admin mailman" mailman-bounces: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman bounces mailman" mailman-confirm: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman confirm mailman" mailman-join: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman join mailman" mailman-leave: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman leave mailman" mailman-owner: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman owner mailman" mailman-request: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman request mailman" mailman-subscribe: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe mailman" mailman-unsubscribe: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe mailman" Run newaliases afterwards and restart Postfix: /etc/init.d/postfix restart Then start the Mailman daemon: /etc/init.d/mailman start ----------------------- afterwards download the ispconfig tar.gz and run the update script and choose to reconfigure services during update: cd /tmp wget http://www.ispconfig.org/downloads/ISPConfig-3-stable.tar.gz tar xvfz ISPConfig-3-stable.tar.gz cd ispconfig3_install/install php -q update.php
Till, do we have to configure mailman from shell or does ISPConfig 3 do that for us? This is what I get when I install and try to run mailman: # newlist mailman Enter the email of the person running the list: my@email Initial mailman password: /etc/mailman/virtual_to_transport.sh: 39: This is the module which takes your site-specific settings. From a raw distribution it should be copied to mm_cfg.py. If you already have an mm_cfg.py, be careful to add in only the new settings you want. The complete set of distributed defaults, with annotation, are in ./Defaults. In mm_cfg, override only those you want to change, after the from Defaults import * line (see below). Note that these are just default settings - many can be overridden via the admin and user interfaces on a per-list or per-user basis. Note also that some of the settings are resolved against the active list setting by using the value as a format string against the list-instance-object's dictionary - see the distributed value of DEFAULT_MSG_FOOTER for an example.: File name too long from: can't read /var/mail/Defaults /etc/mailman/virtual_to_transport.sh: 55: MAILMAN_SITE_LIST: not found /etc/mailman/virtual_to_transport.sh: 60: DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN: not found /etc/mailman/virtual_to_transport.sh: 61: PRIVATE_ARCHIVE_URL: not found /etc/mailman/virtual_to_transport.sh: 62: IMAGE_LOGOS: not found /etc/mailman/virtual_to_transport.sh: 66: DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST: not found /etc/mailman/virtual_to_transport.sh: 69: DEFAULT_URL_HOST: not found /etc/mailman/virtual_to_transport.sh: 72: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")") Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/newlist", line 266, in <module> main() File "/usr/sbin/newlist", line 233, in main sys.modules[modname].create(mlist) File "/var/lib/mailman/Mailman/MTA/Postfix.py", line 232, in create _update_maps() File "/var/lib/mailman/Mailman/MTA/Postfix.py", line 60, in _update_maps raise RuntimeError, msg % (vcmd, status, errstr) RuntimeError: command failed: /etc/mailman/virtual_to_transport.sh /var/lib/mailman/data/virtual-mailman (status: 2, No such file or directory)
The mailinglist with name "mailman" has to be created on the shell during ininital installation, later all other mailinglists are created trough ispconfig. Which ispconfig version? Did you install mailman before ispconfig was installed or did you run the ispconfig updater and reconfigured services after you installed mailman?
I did an update from previous version running php -q update.php. When I wanted to create a mailing list I noticed nothing was happening. Than I noticed the mailman package was not installed and installed it from shell. Did not reconfigured services after I installed mailman.
I manually run php -q update.php and reconfigured all services, mailing lists are created now. Thanks.
I received the email with access info for the mailing list, but when accessing the links in email https://domain/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/list http://domain/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/list I get ERROR 404 - Not Found! What am I missing now?
Fixed, I missed to include mailman apache config: ln -s /etc/mailman/apache.conf /etc/apache2/conf.d/mailman.conf
