How to disable global templates for all lists
Hallo togeher,
I´m using the docker version from maxking and mailman core-version 3.3.9. I was wondering why there were messages in the list with "non-configured" footers. I found the files
mailman-core:/opt/mailman# find / -name "*list:member:*" /usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/mailman/templates/de/list:member:generic:footer.txt /usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/mailman/templates/de/list:member:digest:masthead.txt /usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/mailman/templates/ca/list:member:generic:footer.txt /usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/mailman/templates/ca/list:member:digest:masthead.txt /usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/mailman/templates/nl/list:member:generic:footer.txt
but I found no option to disable them. How can I disable these global list-configuration?
Best regards, chrclaus

First, those are only a few. The default English templates are
templates/en/list:member:digest:masthead.txt templates/en/list:member:generic:footer.txt templates/en/list:member:digest:header.txt templates/en/list:member:regular:header.txt
and there are translations of them in many more than the de, ca and nl languages. The default English list:member:digest:header.txt and list:member:regular:header.txt are empty so most languages do not translate them.
You can't disable them other than removing them, but you don't want to do that as these are only used as fall back in cases where there is no list, domain or site specific template. If you have messages delivered that use one of the default templates, it's because you don't have a custom template that matches the context for that message.
When a template is required, first the template table in the database is searched for a template matching the list, domain or site context. If no match is found, the file system is searched as described at https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/-/blob/master/src/mailman/utilities/i18n....

Hi Mark,
thank you for your quik answer. Of course you are right, there are a lot of more templates. I forgot to mark m listing with dots. Christopher
