Full Service Listserve for OS X Server

We looking for a fully loaded, easy to use Email List server. We are currently using an online service costing thousands per month. The volume is <200,000 per cycle with 2 cycles per month. We are looking for something that is scalable, easy to administrate and has good reporting. Any help would be appreciated. Apple's Mailman is our last option because help for it is hard to find. Thanks in advance.
Tom

Mailman can do quite a bit ... but what are YOUR needs? Do you need VH mail lists that would reflect VH clients, or just lists that are part of your primary domain? If VH -- then you need to pepper Apple with requests to have the server dev team pay attention to the advances in Mailman 3 and implement them in Leopard server -- otherwise you'll have to do all that via the command line.
If it is just a list or lists for your own domain, Mailman can do it. Don't know at what point the GUI will break in the SA, but the daemon itself would have no issues.
Or explore other products such as surgemail -- something very powerful. If Apple would spend some effort on the GUI here, they could get close. Again -- fuss at them directly using the server feedback under the SA menu or bug report. It's the only way to pull resources from whereever they have wandered off to and back to the OSXS software.

  • Crystal Reports (VS-2005). Service Pack for Windows 2008 Server

    I had issues with reduced font size on Export and Printing. On a PC with Windows XP SP2 installed, I made registry changes as recommended in this post:
    [Font size decreases when exporting to PDF (Crystal Reports)|http://mdn.morovia.com/kb/Font-size-decreases-exporting-PDF-Crystal-Reports-10053.html]
    Prior to making registry changes, I also installed Crystal Reports SP1 for VS-2005. After this, everything seems to be working fine.
    But I still have this Reduced Font Size issue on my Server with Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise installed.
    I installed the same Service Pack and made the registry changes, but the changes don't seem to appear. It is still showing Reduced Fonts on Export and Printing. My server is also running Visual Studio 2005.

    I concur with Bhushan;
    It may or may not work with windows server 2008 .
    One idea;
    Use [Process Monitor|http://technet.microsoft.com/en-ca/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx]. Look at the procmon logs and see if the registry key is being looked at \ accessed by the report engine.
    Other than that, upgrade to a version of CR that supports the OS is your only option.

  • Do we need separate Unattended service account for each SharePoint Server 2013 BI service applications?

    SharePoint 2013 - I'm planning to use 'unattended service account' method of Secure Store Service - for Excel, Performance Point and Visio services. I'm about to create Active directory accounts for them.
    Question: Do we need separate Active directory accounts for each service
    DomainName\ExcelUnattendedAccount
    DomainName\PPSUnattendedAccount
    DomainName\VisioUnattendedAccount
    (or)
    Can I have just one Active Directory account DomainName\SharePointUnattendedAccount ?
    Are there any drawbacks having a single account? Any best practice around this? For all the three services the data sources are going to be the same. 
    Subash.S

    Security is the only reason you would separate accounts (as these accounts must have access to the source data). There should be no other drawbacks.

  • Full Service - Switch from Metered to Permit Indicia

    Background:
    We are participating in Full Service IMB for 1st Class mail with a typical mailing of 110,000 to 120,000 mail-pieces each day.  On any given day, there may be 15 - 50 pieces that weigh over 1 ounce.  This is due to enclosures and the number of pages in the envelope.  We are metering our mail at the correct postage rate.  These overweight pieces are removed from the current mailing and the proper postage is applied.
    Task:
    I am analyzing the potential of switching away from using meters to a preprinted permit indicia. 
    Question:
    Is there a way for presort to identify the overweight pieces within the Mail.Dat files?  If so How?
    With the randomness of these overweights, what is the recommended method for handling these pieces?
    Any known best practices?

    I can't really think of an easy way to identify these pieces within the Mail.dat files. 
    What method are you using to set up the verisons within Presort?  Version Description blocks or AUTO-DIMEN within the Version Defaults block?

  • Service Accounts for Browser Services and FD Launcher (Full-text Search)

    I am setting up SQL Failover Clustering (Version: 2012SP1) on Windows 2012. There are 2 options to configure the service account for Browser Services and FD Launcher :
    Option 1) Using separate domain accounts, as what I have done for DB Engine and SQL Agent.
    Option 2) accept the default, which is  local service for
    browser, and virtual account for
    FD Launcher. Per documentation URL: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143504.aspx
    which is the recommended one? is it option 2?
    There is security note on above URL as well, but does not clearly mention that option 1 is not recommended.
    Security Note:  Always run SQL Server services by using the lowest possible user rights. Use a
    MSA or
    virtual account when possible. When MSA and virtual accounts are not possible, use a specific low-privilege user account or domain account instead of a shared account for SQL Server services. Use separate accounts for different SQL Server services. Do not
    grant additional permissions to the SQL Server service account or the service groups. Permissions will be granted through group membership or granted directly to a service SID, where a service SID is supported.

    Hi Luo Donghua,
    In SQL Server Brower, the default logon account is NT Authority\Local service and cannot be changed during SQL Server setup.SQL Server Browser is not a clustered resource and does
    not support failover from one cluster node to the other. SQL Server Browser should be installed and
    turned on for each node of the cluster. SQL Server Browser should be run in the security context of a low privileged user to minimize exposure to a malicious attack.
    You can change the account after the setup has been completed; For more information, see:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh510203.aspx.
    In SQL Server full text filter daemon launcher, on Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008, the FDHOST Launcher service account also defaults to LOCAL SERVICE. If you provide a domain account in which to run the FDHOST Launcher service, we highly recommend
    that you use a low privilege account. On Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008R2 , we use Virtual Account or Managed Service account(MSA) in FD Launcher . We also need to note the account you used for
     FD Launcher should be different from the account that you use for the SQL Server service. For more information, see:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc281953(v=sql.100).aspx
    So I recommend you use the option 2 to configure the service account for Browser Services and FD Launcher.
    Thanks,

  • One Search service application for multiple web applications in a single server

      We are planning to host 17 Web applications in a single Server. Do I need to create search service application for each web application or I need to create one  Search service application , create a Content source for each web
    application and create a Result source for filtering. Which is the best approach. And which approach takes more RAM memory.
       In my application I am using Search web part, "Recently Changed Items", "Popular Items" web parts. when I created only one one  Search Service application for all web applications and using Result sources ,
    I am not getting the results. What could be the problem.

    Hi,
    One SSA is ok, but you should think about access rights. If the access is clear cut between all the web apps you should be ok with one SSA. Multiple result sources limiting on content source also works, but could easily be bypassed.
    Multiple SSA's will eat up RAM/CPU like a mother :)
    As for popular etc.. it could be due to how those sources are set up, but haven't investigated or tested this much.

    I am using a window 7 professional  service pack 1 and I purchase REMOTE DESKTOP SERVICES CLIENT ACCESS LICENSES FOR MICROSOFT WINDOWS SERVER 2012 STANDARD AND DATACENTER. but  the seller did not send me any installation CD or instruction

  • Error while Installing Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction Server

    I downloaded "Oracle9i Database Release 2 Enterprise/Standard/Personal Edition for Windows NT/2000/XP" and installed the personal edition. It did not install successfully and gave this error message:
    Error while Installing Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction Server
    The specified key was not found while trying to GetValue
    - stop installation of all products.
    - stop installation of this component only.
    The installation of Oracle 9i Database was unsuccessful
    The Integration tools and client installed just fine from the same download. Why didn't the database install successfully? All the other components seemed to install just fine and the database appeared to be created - but I could not open it and there was not start menu option for DBA Studio.
    I am running Windows 2000 professional with Service Pack 3 on a 2 GHz Pentium4 machine with 512MB Rambus RAM, 32bit color graphics ATI All-in-Wonder card, about 40GB of disk space, a local peer-to-peer network via cat5 cable to another Win2k P3 machine, and Creative Soundblaster Audigy card. Do I need to adjust any network settings? Would it help or hinder if I installed MS IIS? WinNT has a Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS) but Win2k has COM+ instead; does that make a difference in terms of the installer looking for MTS? Do I need to configure COM+ in some special way / change settings?

  • Service Accounts for Reporting Service in SQL Server Failover Cluster setup

    Thanks very much for your help!

    Hi Luo Donghua,
    In SQL Server Failover Cluster Instance, personally two options can run well. If you use the virtual account for SQL Server Reporting Service. Virtual accounts in Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7 are managed local accounts that provide the features to
    simplify service administration. The virtual account is auto-managed, and the virtual account can access the network in a domain environment.
    Of cause, you can also use domain accounts in your clustering. 
    Just make sure your service account is set up here, or that it is using a proper built-in account.For more information, see:http://ermahblerg.com/2012/11/08/cluster-ssrs-in-2008/

  • Reporting Services will not automatically use a different replica for the report server databases when a failover occurs. How to overcome this issue

    Reporting Services offers limited support for using AlwaysOn Availability Groups with report server databases. The report server databases can be configured in AG to be part of a replica; however Reporting Services will not automatically use a different
    replica for the report server databases when a failover occurs. How to overcome this issue? is there any workaround for that..
    Rahul

    Hi.
    With the AlwaysOn listener you should have a single DNS name to connect to regardless of which cluster node is active. Are you using the listener service? If not, please refer to the link below.
