Unknown attribute: max_message_size
by Thor Atle Rustad June 27, 2018

June 27, 2018

If I make changes here: https://example.com/postorius/lists/test2.example.com/settings/message_acce…, I get a warning that the Maximum Message Size field at the bottom is mandatory. However, if I put a number in that field and save, I get "Unknown attribute: max_message_size". That makes sense, since Mark states in https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/message… that max_messages_size is not exposed in REST. What to do? I have Maxking mailman-docker but can easily copy files into the image if necessary. Thor

Disabling Gravatar
by Marvin Gülker April 26, 2018

April 26, 2018

Hi everyone, I want to make you aware of a potential privacy problem in Mailman's Hyperkitty. Under the upcoming EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)[1], which will be in force as of 2018-05-25, it is illegal to transmit data to third parties without a right to do so. Without going into the details, the inclusion of third party services into one's website is usually deemed such a transmission, and unless one has explicit consent of the user (e.g., by an optional (!), unticked ticking box) this is normally illegal (if one targets EU users). The GDPR does not affect private and family use (Art. 2(2)(c) GDPR), but the exact reach of that clause is yet to be determined; it certainly does not exclude company use of Mailman. I've found it's possible to disable the social login providers quite easily (we had this discussion here on the mailinglist recently), but I don't see an option to disable Gravatar. If there is one, please enlighten me, but anyway I want to propose this as a feature request against Hyperkitty. A GDPR-compliant implementation of Gravatar in Mailman would look like this: * In order to not transmit website visitor's data (IP address, browser info, etc) to Gravatar, Hyperkitty has to request the avatar image itself and not leave that to the user's browsers to do. In other words, the HTTP GET request needs to come from the server running Hyperkitty and the user's browser then just requests the avatar from the Hyperkitty server. Most likely easiest way to do this is to pre-download the avatar when an email is archived. * In order to not transmit the subscribers' data (email address, allows Gravatar to track the subscriber) to Gravatar illegally, the retrieval of the avatar image from Gravatar has to be disabled by default. Instead, an option needs to be added to the subscriber's control panel which he has to actively enable in order to have his Gravatar downloaded and thus used (privacy-by-default rule). I'm not saying Gravatar tracks people and sells the information gathered, though I have doubts on how Automattic makes money with the service. I'm just outlining the legal duties under the upcoming GDPR for service owners, which are independant of how Automattic processes the data in this specific case. Please don't dismiss this as some side feature not needed. The fines that can be imposed on service owners due to violation of the GDPR are very high (up to 20,000,000 € [that's 20 million euros, really]).

disable sign-ups

Hi, I would like to add new accounts only manually, the mailman3 site should not be open for sign-ups.

Deactivate list without deleting it?
by Colin Watson March 3, 2018

March 3, 2018

Hi, I'm experimenting with a port of Launchpad's mailing list infrastructure to Mailman 3. If Barry's reading, he may remember that this is no trivial task, so I'm very definitely not promising that it will be done any time soon. :-) However, for the most part it looks relatively tractable with the aid of the plugin improvements in Mailman 3.2.0; I have the rough outline of a plugin that implements much the same feature set as our current pile of monkey-patches against Mailman 2.1 in a much nicer way. One of the major things I haven't figured out yet is list deactivation and reactivation. In our current 2.1-based code, you can deactivate a list in a reversible way, which basically tars up the list directory so that the list archives can be restored later. This isn't a native operation in 2.1, but it could be done because everything lived on the filesystem. In 3, it's less trivial. We could go to some effort to dump things out of the HyperKitty database and restore it on reactivation, but that seems rather complex and a bit silly. Ideally, I'd like mailing lists to have a "deactivated" state in addition to full deletion. In this state, the list would appear nonexistent for most purposes: incoming email would be rejected, Postorius would deny its existence, etc. There'd need to be corresponding extensions to the IArchiver interface which caused the archiver to put its archives of that list into a corresponding deactivated state, in which it would retain the messages but queries for them would return 404 or similar; these extensions would need to be optional, since while it should be relatively easy to do this in HyperKitty it could be hard or impossible for other archivers, and perhaps this should be a separate operation from deactivating the list itself since people may want to close a list while leaving its archives accessible. Has there been any discussion of this in the past, or any advice as to implementation strategy? Thanks, -- Colin Watson [cjwatson(a)ubuntu.com]

import21: A string literal cannot contain NUL (0x00) characters.

Docker-mailman 0.1.1. I am facing errors when using import21 to import list archives.

Hi, I would like to point "https://my-domain.org/" to the list of mailing-lists of this domain. How should I setup my Apache configuration and/or the urlpatterns please? With my actual configuration, the above URL is always rewritten to https://my-domain.org/postorius/lists/ These are my urlpatterns: urlpatterns = [ url(r'^$', RedirectView.as_view( url=reverse_lazy('list_index'), permanent=True)), url(r'^postorius/', include('postorius.urls')), url(r'^archive/', include('hyperkitty.urls')), url(r'', include('django_mailman3.urls')), url(r'^accounts/', include('allauth.urls')), url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)), ] TIA for any help, -- Peter
