There are several mailing lists available for PmWiki.

[ pmwiki-users ]
This is a great resource where a very helpful group of people will answer questions and discuss PmWiki development. Traffic is around 20–40 messages a day (on slow days :).If you ask a question on the list and it doesn’t get answered, don’t feel let down. Just ask it again. It probably slipped by unnoticed.

[ pmwiki-announce ]
Announcements of new version releases. The archive is at:

[ pmwiki-users-de ]
A mailing list for german-speaking users of PmWiki. Archived at

Suggestions:

  • If you reply to a digest message, please remove the messages irrelevant to your reply before sending it back to the list. It’s also helpful (but less important) to change “Re: pmwiki-users Digest, Vol […]” to “Re: [the original subject]” because some mail programs determine threads based on the subject.
  • If you address a reply to a single list member, please take the [pmwiki-users] off the subject line, or it’s possible for your message to get lost in the mailing list traffic. Many people filter list traffic to a separate mailbox.

Changing mail list settings

Here are some tips regarding changing the mailing list settings:

  • Logging in…
    • First go to http://pmichaud.com/mailman/listinfo/pmwiki-users
      and enter your e-mail address in the field at the bottom of the page,
      to the left of the button Unsubscribe or edit options.
    • Next you need to enter your password. As you’ve probably forgotten this,
      use the button Remind at the bottom of the page to get a new password.
    • Finally enter the password you should get momentarily via e-mail.

  • You can directly go to the options web page through a URI such as the
    following:
http://host.pmichaud.com/mailman/options/pmwiki-users/<user>%40<domain>
where <user> is everything before the @ in an e-mail address,
and <domain> is everything after (
For those who wonder, the %40 in the URI just stands for ‘@’.

Newsgroups (NNTP)

You may be interested, that the lists are also accessible as newsgroups.

The NNTP server is:

  • news.gmane.org

The groups are:

  • gmane.comp.web.wiki.pmwiki.user
  • gmane.comp.web.wiki.pmwiki.announce
  • gmane.comp.web.wiki.pmwiki.user.de
