Hi @BenzirInterHyve ,

This issues page is intended for system administrators who manage mailing list systems.
At first, could you please contact the support desk of the provider hosting the services on my-safe-cloud.ch?

On the list menu you see "List not activated yet." In order to add members the list needs to be activated by the listmaster of my-safe-cloud.ch.

You may contact me by private email about technical support.

@BenzirInterHyve , sorry, I misunderstood you are using an installation of Sympa which is provided by the hosting providor.

To request helps, could you please provide these things?

  • Version of Sympa.
  • Installation method: apt, RPM, FreeBSD port, comileation using source tarball or ...
  • What you expected.
  • What you really saw.
  • The procedure step-by-step by which you can reproduce the problem: "I opened the URL xxx, clicked xxx button, entered 'xxxx' into XXX textbox, and ... "
  • Extensive descriptions, such as screen shots.

Support on this GitHub site is basically voluntary work. Sharing your experiences will also benefit the other users.

EDIT: There may be more information to solve problem, such as: System log, contents of configuration files etc. It's after when we see the information listed above that what we need will be known.

You need to be listmaster to activate the list. Check "listmaster" value in your Sympa configuration file (sympa.conf)

@BenzirInterHyve , according to the screen shot in the first post, you are not the listmaster. Listmaster is not the admin of particular list.

Did you install Sympa by yourself? If you did, please check the Administration Manual again and confirm if you have done necessary settings.

If you didn't, please ask the person who installed Sympa.

@BenzirInterHyve Glad to hear that the list works now. Please submit a separate issue on the mail problem, including details about your mail server setup on the Sympa server and the NDR as attachment.
