Hi, I am a very non-savvy mailman list user. I am trying to set up a list via cPanel but when I send emails there are two signatures. One is my usual signature and the other, below, is appended by Mailman and includes an http link to a non-existent page on my website. How do I strip the auto signature, just leaving my own?
I use Mailman via cPanel on two separate hosting accounts. One works fine and this new one attaches the list address. I can't see what I did differently with the first!
any help gratefully received
Kate

Please see https://wiki.list.org/DOC/Mailman%20and%20CPanel
That said, if you can go to the standard Mailman web admin UI, go to Non-digest options and ensure msg_footer is completely empty.

Thank you! I knew it had to be somewhere, just couldn't find where. All sorted.
As for cPanel, that's what my hosting company uses. Since they are admirable in every other sense I don't want to leave them. So thank you very much for sorting this out.
best wishes Kate

Mark's point about cPanel is not a recommendation to avoid it, it's a warning that in many cases only your hosting company and cPanel can help you. You're welcome to request our help, but cPanel makes it hard for us to help.
Note that we cannot help at all with "cPanel Mailman 2.2" -- it's a complete rewrite by cPanel.
