This includes pages for -subscribing and unsubscribing members, and for searching for members, -and for changing various member-specific settings. +Mailman delivers messages to users via two modes. List members can +elect to receive postings in bundles call <em>digests</em> one or a few +times a day, or they can receive messages immediately whenever the +message is posted to the list. This latter delivery mode is also +called <em>non-digest delivery</em>. There are two administrative +categories available for separately controlling digest and non-digest +delivery. You can even disable one or the other forms of delivery +(but not both). <P> -More details on membership management are described in the Membership -Management section. +Both kinds of delivery can have list-specific headers and footers +added to them which can contain other useful information you want your +list members to see. For example, you can include instructions for +unsubscribing, or a url to the lists digest, or any other information. <P> +Non-digest deliveries can also be <em>personalized</em> which means +certain parts of the message can contain information tailored to the +member receiving the message. For example, the <span class="mailheader">To:</span> header +will contain the address of the member when deliveries are +personalized. Footers and headers can contain personalized +information as well, such as a link to the individual user's options +page. +<P> +In addition, personalized messages will contain extra information that +Mailman can use to unambiguously track bounces from members. +Ordinarily, Mailman does some pattern recognition on bounce messages +to determine list members whose addresses are no longer valid, but +because of the vagaries of mail systems, and the countless forwards +people can put in place, it's often the case that bounce messages +don't contain any useful information in them. Personalized messages +avoid this problem by encoding information in certain headers that +unambiguously identify the recipient of a message. If that message +bounces, Mailman will know exactly which member it was intended for. + +<P> +Note that because personalization requires extra system resources, it +must be enabled by the site administrator before you can choose it. + +<P> +Here are the variables which control non-digest delivery: + +<P> +<DL> +<DT><STRONG>nondigestable</STRONG></DT> +<DD>This option controls whether members can receive immediate + delivery or not.

For non-English +lists, the headers and footers can contain any character in the +character set of the list's preferred language. The headers and +footers can also contain <em>substitution variables</em> which Mailman +will fill in with information taken from the mailing list.

List members can -elect to receive postings in bundles call <i>digests</i> one or a few -times a day, or they can receive messages immediately whenever the -message is posted to the list. This latter delivery mode is also -called <i>non-digest delivery</i>. There are two administrative -categories available for separately controlling digest and non-digest -delivery. You can even disable one or the other forms of delivery -(but not both). +Digest delivery is a way to bundle many articles together into one +package, which can be delivered once per day (if there were any posted +articles), or whenever the package is bigger than a specified limit. +Some users may prefer this style of delivery for higher traffic lists +since they will receive fewer messages. <P> -Both kinds of delivery can have list-specific headers and footers -added to them which can contain other useful information you want your -list members to see. For example, you can include instructions for -unsubscribing, or a url to the lists digest, or any other information. +Mailman supports two standard digest formats, and if digests are +enabled, users can select which of the two formats they receive. One +is MIME digests, where each message is an attachment inside a +<span class="mimetype">multipart/digest</span>. This format also contains a summary +table of contents, and of course the an optional header and footer, +and it retains most of the headers of the original messages. <P> -Non-digest deliveries can also be <i>personalized</i> which means -certain parts of the message can contain information tailored to the -member receiving the message. For example, the <span class="mailheader">To:</span> header -will contain the address of the member when deliveries are -personalized. Footers and headers can contain personalized -information as well, such as a link to the individual user's options -page. +The second type is called ``plaintext'' digests because they are +readable in mail readers that don't support MIME. Actually, they +adhere to the <a class="rfc" id='rfcref-1080' xml:id='rfcref-1080' +href="http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1153.html">RFC 1153</a> digest standard. The retain some, but not +all of the original messages, but can also include a summary and +headers and footers. <P> -In addition, personalized messages will contain extra information that -Mailman can use to unambiguously track bounces from members. -Ordinarily, Mailman does some pattern recognition on bounce messages -to determine list members whose addresses are no longer valid, but -because of the vagaries of mail systems, and the countless forwards -people can put in place, it's often the case that bounce messages -don't contain any useful information in them. Personalized messages -avoid this problem by encoding information in certain headers that -unambiguously identify the recipient of a message. If that message -bounces, Mailman will know exactly which member it was intended for. +Like non-digest delivery, you can enable or disable digest delivery, +but you cannot disable both types of delivery. You can specify +different headers and footers for digest and non-digest deliveries. +You cannot personalize digest deliveries. <P> -Note that because personalization requires extra system resources, it -must be enabled by the site administrator before you can choose it. +As list administrator, you may want to send an urgent message to all +list members, bypassing the normal digest bundling. To do this, send +the message with a <span class="mailheader">Urgent:</span> header, where the value of the +header is the list administrator's password.

By - turning this flag off by default, postings by members will be - allowed without further intervention (barring other restrictions - such as size or implicit recipient lists - see below). By - turning the flag on, you can quarantine new member postings to - make sure that they meet your criteria for netiquette, topicality, - etc. Once you determine that the new member understands the - community's posting rules, you can turn off their moderation flag - and let their postings go through unstopped. - -<P> -E-newsletter style lists can also be set up by using the - moderation flag. By setting the <code>member_moderation_action</code> - to <i>Reject</i>, and by turning off the moderation flag for just - the few approved senders, your list will operate in essentially a - one-way direction. Note that you'd also need to reject or discard - postings from non-members. - -<P> -</DD> -<DT><STRONG>member_moderation_action</STRONG></DT> -<DD>This is the action to take for postings from a member who's - moderation flag is set. For typical discussion lists, you'll - likely set this to <i>Hold</i> so that the list moderator will get - a chance to manually approve, reject, or discard the message. For - e-newsletter and announcement lists, you might want to set this to - <i>Reject</i> or <i>Discard</i>. - -<P> -Note that when a moderated member posts to your list, and the - <code>member_moderation_action</code> is set to <i>Hold</i>, the message - will appear on the administrative requests page. When you dispose - of the message, you will be given an opportunity to clear the - moderation flag at the same time. If you're quarantining new - posts, this makes it very convenient to both approve a new - member's post and de-moderate them at the same time. +<DT><STRONG>require_explicit_destination</STRONG></DT> +<DD>This controls whether the mailing list posting address must be + explicitly named in the <span class="mailheader">To:</span> or <span class="mailheader">Cc:</span> + recipient lists. The main reason why it wouldn't is if the + message was blind-carbon-copied (i.e. <span class="mailheader">Bcc:</span>'d) to the + list.

There - currently is no way to add additional text to the rejection - message. - -<P> -</DD> -<DT><STRONG>discard_these_nonmembers</STRONG></DT> -<DD>Postings from non-members whose addresses match this list are - discarded, with no bounce back message. You might want to add the - addresses of known spammers to this list. +If the list is not explicitly addressed and this setting is turned + on, the message will be held for moderator approval. <P> </DD> -<DT><STRONG>generic_nonmember_action</STRONG></DT> -<DD>This variable controls what happens to non-member posts when the - address of the sender doesn't match any of the above four lists. - If you set this to <i>Hold</i>, the posting will appear on the - administrative requests page, and you will be given an opportunity - to add the non-member to one of the above four lists at the same - time you dispose of the held message. +<DT><STRONG>acceptable_aliases</STRONG></DT> +<DD>This is the list of alternative addresses that are acceptable as a + list posting address when <code>require_explicit_destination</code> is + enabled.

it -doesn't replace dedicated anti-spam tools such as SpamAssassin or -Spambayes. +These policies control the automatic bounce processing system in +Mailman. Here's an overview of how it works: + +<P> +When a bounce is received, Mailman tries to extract two pieces of +information from the message: the address of the member the message +was intended for, and the severity of the problem causing the bounce. +The severity can be either <em>hard</em> for fatal errors, or +<em>soft</em> for transient errors. When in doubt, a hard severity is +used. + +<P> +If no member address can be extracted from the bounce, then the bounce +message is usually discarded. Every member has a <em>bounce score</em>, +initialized at zero, and every time we encounter a bounce from a +member we increment that member's score. Hard bounces increment by 1 +while soft bounces increment by 0.5. We only increment the bounce +score once per day, so even if we receive ten hard bounces from a +member per day, their score will increase by only 1 for that day. + +<P> +When a member's bounce score is greater than the <em>bounce score +threshold</em> (see below), the member's subscription is disabled. Once +disabled, the member will not receive any postings from the list until +their membership is explicitly re-enabled, either by the list +administrator or the user. However, they will receive occasional +reminders that their membership has been disabled, and these reminders +will include information about how to re-enable their membership. You +can control both the number of reminders the member will receive and +the frequency with which these reminders are sent. + +<P> +There is one other important configuration variable; after a certain +period of time - during which no bounces from the member are received +- the bounce information is considered stale and discarded. Thus by +adjusting this value, and the score threshold, you can control how +quickly bouncing members are disabled. You should tune both of these +to the frequency and traffic volume of your list. <P> <DL> -<DT><STRONG>bounce_matching_headers</STRONG></DT> -<DD>This variable contains header regular expressions, one per line, - and if any of a message's headers matches one of these patterns, - it will be held for moderation.

Here's an overview of how it works: - -<P> -When a bounce is received, Mailman tries to extract two pieces of -information from the message: the address of the member the message -was intended for, and the severity of the problem causing the bounce. -The severity can be either <i>hard</i> for fatal errors, or -<i>soft</i> for transient errors. When in doubt, a hard severity is -used. - -<P> -If no member address can be extracted from the bounce, then the bounce -message is usually discarded. Every member has a <i>bounce score</i>, -initialized at zero, and every time we encounter a bounce from a -member we increment that member's score. Hard bounces increment by 1 -while soft bounces increment by 0.5. We only increment the bounce -score once per day, so even if we receive ten hard bounces from a -member per day, their score will increase by only 1 for that day. - -<P> -When a member's bounce score is greater than the <i>bounce score -threshold</i> (see below), the member's subscription is disabled. Once -disabled, the member will not receive any postings from the list until -their membership is explicitly re-enabled, either by the list -administrator or the user. However, they will receive occasional -reminders that their membership has been disabled, and these reminders -will include information about how to re-enable their membership. You -can control both the number of reminders the member will receive and -the frequency with which these reminders are sent. - -<P> -There is one other important configuration variable; after a certain -period of time - during which no bounces from the member are received -- the bounce information is considered stale and discarded. Thus by -adjusting this value, and the score threshold, you can control how -quickly bouncing members are disabled. You should tune both of these -to the frequency and traffic volume of your list. +Mailman comes with a built-in web-based archiver called +<em>Pipermail</em>, although it can be configured to use external, +third party archivers. <P> <DL> -<DT><STRONG>bounce_processing</STRONG></DT> -<DD>Specifies whether or not this list should do automatic bounce - processing. - -<P> -</DD> -<DT><STRONG>bounce_score_threshold</STRONG></DT> -<DD>This is the bounce score above which a member's subscription will - be automatically disabled.

Mailman has extensive +features for controlling the privacy of your lists, distributing your +list as personalized postings or digests, gatewaying postings to and +from Usenet, and providing automatic bounce detection. Mailman +provides a built-in archiver, multiple natural languages, as well as +advanced content and topic filtering. + +<P> +Mailman provides several interfaces to its functionality. Most list +administrators will primarily use the web interface to customize their +lists.

However, if the +list owner wants to delegate posting and subscription approval +authority to other people, a separate list moderator password can be +set, giving moderators access to the approval pages, but not the +configuration pages.

Note -that the exact urls is configurable by the site administrator, so they -may be different than what's described below. We'll describe the most -common default configuration, but check with your site administrator -or hosting service for details. +This section will outline the basic architecture of GNU Mailman, such +as how messages are processed by the sytem. Without going into lots +of detail, this information will help you understand how the +configuration options control Mailman's functionality. <P> -Mailman provides a set of web pages that list members use to get -information about the list, or manage their membership options. There -are also list archive pages, for browsing an online web-based archive -of the list traffic. These are described in more detail in the GNU -Mailman user's manual. +When mail enters the system from your mail server, it is dropped into +one of several Mailman <em>queues</em> depending on the address the +message was sent to. For example, if your system has a mailing list +named <var>mylist</var> and your domain is <var>example.com</var>, people can +post messages to your list by sending them to +<var>mylist@example.com</var>. These messages will be dropped into the +<em>incoming</em> queue, which is also colloquially called the +<em>moderate-and-munge</em> queue. The incoming queue is where most of +the approval process occurs, and it's also where the message is +prepared for sending out to the list membership. <P> -Mailman also provides a set of pages for configuring an individual -list, as well as a set of pages for disposing of posting and -subscription requests. +There are separate queues for the built-in archiver, the bounce +processor, the email command processor, as well as the outgoing email +and news queues. There's also a queue for messages generated by the +Mailman system. Each of these queues typically has one <em>queue +runner</em> (or ``qrunner'') that processes messages in the queue. The +qrunners are idle when there are no messages to process. <P> -For a mailing list called <var>mylist</var> hosted at the domain -<var>lists.example.com</var>, you would typically access the administrative -pages by going to <code>http://lists.example.com/mailman/admin/mylist</code>. -The first time you visit this page, you will be presented with a login -page, asking for the list owner's password. When you enter the -password, Mailman will store a session cookie in your browser, so you -don't have to re-authenticate for every action you want to take. This -cookie is stored only until you exit your browser. +Every message in the queues are represented by two files, a message +file and a metadata file. Both of these files share the same base +name, which is a combination of a unique hash and the Unix time that +the message was received. The metadata file has a suffix of +<span class="file">.db</span> and the message file has a suffix of either <span class="file">.msg</span> if +stored in plain text, or <span class="file">.pck</span> if stored in a more efficient +internal representation<A NAME="tex2html1" + HREF="#foot39"><SUP>1</SUP></A>. <P> -To access the administrative requests page, you'd visit -<code>http://lists.example.com/mailman/admindb/mylist</code> (note the -<i>admindb</i> url as opposed to the <i>admin</i> url). Again, the -first time you visit this page, you'll be presented with a login page, -on which you can enter either the list moderator password or the list -owner password.

Without going into lots -of detail, this information will help you understand how the -configuration options control Mailman's functionality. +After logging into the list configuration pages, you'll see the +configuration options for the list, grouped in categories. All the +administrative pages have some common elements. In the upper section, +you'll see two columns labeled ``Configuration Categories''. Some +categories have sub-categories which are only visible when you click +on the category link. The first page you see after logging in will be +the ``General Options'' category. The specific option settings for +each category are described below. <P> -When mail enters the system from your mail server, it is dropped into -one of several Mailman <i>queues</i> depending on the address the -message was sent to. For example, if your system has a mailing list -named <var>mylist</var> and your domain is <var>example.com</var>, people can -post messages to your list by sending them to -<var>mylist@example.com</var>. These messages will be dropped into the -<i>incoming</i> queue, which is also colloquially called the -<i>moderate-and-munge</i> queue. The incoming queue is where most of -the approval process occurs, and it's also where the message is -prepared for sending out to the list membership. +On the right side of the top section, you'll see a column labeled +``Other Administrative Activities''. Here you'll find some other +things you can do to your list, as well as convenient links to the +list information page and the list archives. Note the big ``Logout'' +link; use this if you're finished configuring your list and don't want +to leave the session cookie active in your browser. <P> -There are separate queues for the built-in archiver, the bounce -processor, the email command processor, as well as the outgoing email -and news queues. There's also a queue for messages generated by the -Mailman system. Each of these queues typically has one <i>queue -runner</i> (or ``qrunner'') that processes messages in the queue. The -qrunners are idle when there are no messages to process. +Below this common header, you'll find a list of this category's +configuration variables, arranged in two columns. In the left column +is a brief description of the option, which also contains a +``details'' link. For many of the variables, more details are +available describing the semantics of the various available settings, +or information on the interaction between this setting and other list +options. Clicking on the details link brings up a page which contains +only the information for that option, as well as a button for +submitting your setting, and a link back to the category page. <P> -Every message in the queues are represented by two files, a message -file and a metadata file. Both of these files share the same base -name, which is a combination of a unique hash and the Unix time that -the message was received. The metadata file has a suffix of -<span class="file">.db</span> and the message file has a suffix of either <span class="file">.msg</span> if -stored in plain text, or <span class="file">.pck</span> if stored in a more efficient -internal representation<A NAME="tex2html1" - HREF="#foot41"><SUP>1</SUP></A>. +On the right side of the two-column section, you'll see the variable's +current value. Some variables may present a limited set of values, +via radio button or check box arrays. Other variables may present +text entry boxes of one or multiple lines. Most variables control +settings for the operation of the list, but others perform immediate +actions (these are clearly labeled). <P> -As a message moves through the incoming queue, it performs various -checks on the message, such as whether it matches one of the -moderation criteria, or contains disallowed MIME types. Once a -message is approved for sending to the list membership, the message is -prepared for sending by deleting, adding, or changing message headers, -adding footers, etc. Messages in the incoming queue may also be -stored for appending to digests. +At the bottom of the page, you'll find a ``Submit'' button and a +footer with some more useful links and a few logos. Hitting the +submit button commits your list settings, after they've been +validated. Any invalid values will be ignored and an error message +will be displayed at the top of the resulting page. The results page +will always be the category page that you submitted. <P> -<BR><HR><H4>Footnotes</H4> -<DL> -<DT><A NAME="foot41">... representation</A><A - HREF="node8.html#tex2html1"><SUP>1</SUP></A></DT> -<DD>Specifically, a Python pickle -</DD> -</DL> +<p><br /></p><hr class='online-navigation' /> +<div class='online-navigation'> +<!--Table of Child-Links--> +<A NAME="CHILD_LINKS"><STRONG>Subsections</STRONG></a> + +<UL CLASS="ChildLinks"> +<LI><A href="node9.html">2.1 The General Options Category</a> +<UL> +<LI><A href="node10.html">2.1.1 General list personality</a> +<LI><A href="node11.html">2.1.2 Reply-To header munging</a> +<LI><A href="node12.html">2.1.3 Umbrella list settings</a> +<LI><A href="node13.html">2.1.4 Notifications</a> +<LI><A href="node14.html">2.1.5 Additional settings</a> +</ul> +<LI><A href="node15.html">2.2 The Passwords Category</a> +<LI><A href="node16.html">2.3 The Language Options Category</a> +<LI><A href="node17.html">2.4 The Membership Management Category</a> +<LI><A href="node18.html">2.5 The Non-digest Options Category</a> +<LI><A href="node19.html">2.6 The Digest Options Category</a> +<LI><A href="node20.html">2.7 The Privacy Options Category</a> +<UL> +<LI><A href="node21.html">2.7.1 Subscription rules</a> +<LI><A href="node22.html">2.7.2 Sender filters</a> +<LI><A href="node23.html">2.7.3 Recipient Filters</a> +<LI><A href="node24.html">2.7.4 Spam Filters</a> +</ul> +<LI><A href="node25.html">2.8 The Bounce Processing Category</a> +<LI><A href="node26.html">2.9 The Archiving Options Category</a> +<LI><A href="node27.html">2.10 The Mail/News Gateway Category</a> +<LI><A href="node28.html">2.11 The Auto-responder Category</a> +<LI><A href="node29.html">2.12 The Content Filtering Category</a> +<LI><A href="node30.html">2.13 The Topics Category</a> +</ul> +<!--End of Table of Child-Links--> +</div> + <DIV CLASS="navigation"> -<p><hr> +<div class='online-navigation'> +<p></p><hr /> <table align="center" width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="2"> <tr> -<td><A HREF="node7.html"><img src="../icons/previous.gif" -
