mailman info traceback (Ubuntu Xenial)
by Pierre Abbat Oct. 26, 2017

Oct. 26, 2017

I'm trying to set up a mailing list server using Mailman. I created a server running Ubuntu Xenial and installed, then removed, the Mailman in the repo, which is 1:2.1.20-1ubuntu0.1. Then I installed pip and ran "pip3 install mailman" and "mailman info" and got an error with traceback. I then tried installing sass and Django following the instructions (I have no idea about sass and Django), then uninstalled and reinstalled Mailman, and tried "mailman info" again. Here is the result: root@lists:/# mailman info Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/mailman", line 11, in <module> sys.exit(main()) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/mailman/bin/mailman.py", line 97, in main initialize(config_path) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/mailman/core/initialize.py", line 185, in initialize initialize_2(propagate_logs=propagate_logs) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/mailman/core/initialize.py", line 156, in initialize_2 config.db = getUtility(IDatabaseFactory, utility_name).create() File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/mailman/database/factory.py", line 55, in create SchemaManager(database).setup_database() File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/mailman/database/factory.py", line 96, in setup_database alembic.command.stamp(alembic_cfg, 'head') File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/alembic/command.py", line 504, in stamp script.run_env() File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/alembic/script/base.py", line 425, in run_env util.load_python_file(self.dir, 'env.py') File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/alembic/util/pyfiles.py", line 81, in load_python_file module = load_module_py(module_id, path) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/alembic/util/compat.py", line 83, in load_module_py spec.loader.exec_module(module) File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap_external>", line 665, in exec_module File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 222, in _call_with_frames_removed File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/mailman/database/alembic/ env.py", line 38, in <module> @public File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/public/public.py", line 15, in public else sys.modules[thing.__module__].__dict__) KeyError: 'env_py' What am I doing wrong, and how do I fix it?

how do I bulk-remove users from ML in MM3?
by Dmitry Makovey Oct. 26, 2017

Oct. 26, 2017

I just realized that "mailman members" only offers to "add members" via "-a filename" but I see no remove option. -- Sr System and DevOps Engineer SoM IRT

integrating mm3 with postfix / lmtp
by Fabian A. Santiago Oct. 25, 2017

Oct. 25, 2017

Hello, I have mm3 up and running via docker (courtesy of maxking/docker-mailman) but when i send an email to my test list, it bounces back claiming user unknown. it states: <"lmtp:[172.19.199.2]:8024"@>: unknown user: "lmtp:[172.19.199.2]:8024" looking at the email source, it seems as though the message is trying to be delivered to: Final-Recipient: rfc822; "lmtp:[172.19.199.2]:8024"@<my email server's FQDN> Original-Recipient: rfc822;test123@<my list's email domain> all of various alias transport maps are defined in postfix's main.cf. not sure where to go from here. does anyone have any clues? -- Thanks, Fabian S.

mail host choices when creating a new list
by Andrew Hodder Oct. 24, 2017

Oct. 24, 2017

Hi! So, I'm trying to create a new list and pick one of the other mail domains we have configured (from the django admin panel), yet in the "Create New List" page in postorius, I see only a single option (the first domain we'd added/set as the default) in the drop-down under "Mail Host". Am I missing somewhere else I need to add alternative mail domains to? Thanks in advance!

Oct. 21, 2017

Hi, mailman2 had the configuration variable "msg_footer" to edit/remove the footer. How can I get rid of the footer in mailman3? Example: "_______________________________________________ Example mailing list -- mailinglist(a)example.com To unsubscribe send an email to mailinglist(a)example.com" Thank you! P.M.

Mails from Django are not sent
by Bjoern Franke Oct. 17, 2017

Oct. 17, 2017

Hi, I'm using the "mailman-suite" setup for Postorious and Hyperkitty. I've set EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend' EMAIL_HOST = 'localhost' in settings.py, but no mails are sent. Files with the e-mails are in the emails folder, but nothing happens, also no errors regarding emails are logged. Postfix as MTA can be connected via localhost:25 and e.g. mailman-core can use it fine. What can I do for further debugging? Kind regards Bjoern Franke
