Managing Mailman with web interface
So there was an update that happened a while back that I complained to my host about, it got escalated to cpanel and I was told its not a bug it just changed the way it works. Well now its creating the issue I expected it to create.
The issue is that the urls to manage the mailing list are not longer relative, they point specifically to the domain and mailing list you want to manage. What happens is I can goto any hostname that resolves to the box, and log in as root, jump into a domain to manage it and click on a mailing list to manage, the url it goes to stays the same at this point, so it has yet to cause an issue, once logged into the list if I click on any link it redirects me to the domain of the mailing list, this causes an issue if that domains website is not hosted on the same machine.
One of the websites hosted on cpanel actually has the website hosted on a different host. The cpanel instance of the domain only manages mail and the mailining lists. Previously this domain did not have any mailing lists.
I would like to get this issue fixed since it basically makes managing mailing lists for a domain whose website is not hosted on the same machine a huge headache. If I want to do it with the web interface I have to retype each url, of i must do it with the command line tools, which isn't quick for a once in a while change.
