Dmarc settings and
by paul＠arenson.org 08 Sep '19

In a long thread I asked this but have not gotten a clear enough explanation. Presumably, to insure fewer problems with users of Yahoo etc,, there seem to be two settings: 1) Alter messages 2) Dmarc mitigations I don’t understand how my choice in one affect the other, if they do even, Two experts have tried to help, but I think I need a little hand holding. I understand there is no consumer ready manual and all I have found us this: https://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/mailman/handlers/docs/dmarc-mi… My settings; REPLY GOES TO LIST (alter messages)--current settings REPLACE FROM: with list (DMARC mitigations) -> current settings DMARCH Mitigation YES OR NO (DMARC mitigations)--> currently NO I was told that Dmarc mitigations YES might prevent people from not getting mail How about Replace from with list? How about reply goes to list? In other words, what is the relationship between these two different menu items and the effect of the settings in one on the settings of the other? Can anyone help a confused would be happy user? Thanks? If so, what about the Alter Messages settings:

sqlite3 Database "read only" error on mailman_sync job
by ugniusviln＠gmail.com 06 Sep '19

06 Sep '19

Hi. All the project installation is under the same user / path and it works. Archiving working as well, (just one remark: no matter what to set in postorius, hyperkitty shows list as public) I have found work around - it is possible to change list as private in "admin" page. I started to get issues with runjobs after I have created couple of new lists with "no archive" option. If as owner user from project home I run: django-admin mailman_sync Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/user/.local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/django/db/backends/utils.py", line 84, in _execute return self.cursor.execute(sql, params) File "/home/user/.local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/django/db/backends/sqlite3/base.py", line 383, in execute return Database.Cursor.execute(self, query, params) sqlite3.OperationalError: attempt to write a readonly database "django-admin runjob sync_mailman " - makes read only errors as well. "django-admin runjob new_lists_from_mailman" django.db.utils.OperationalError: attempt to write a readonly database END TRACEBACK I did not find information how to fix this. It was worked without errors before. I noticed, that if I stop mailman, "django-admin mailman_sync" starts to work. If I start "mailman start", then "django-admin mailman_sync" failing again. I did not check other jobs, but I think what is related to database, will get errors. Seems mailman locking the database. It is not a file permissions issue. Mailman db location is: /project_directory/var/data/mailman.db if to rename /project_directory/var/data/mailman.db to something, mailman creates database file size 0, django-admin runjobs start working, but of course postorius stops working. I did it for testing. I have returned this database file back, postorius started to work again, but django-admin runjobs does not work, error: "database read only". Please help me how to fix this issue.

Mass subscribe bug - if you delete and re-add users it does not use updated info
by roger＠reasonal.com 05 Sep '19

05 Sep '19

Hi all -- think this is a bug. I had added some users as a mass subscribe. Some were Name Surname <name(a)foo.bar> format, some were just email addresses. I wanted to update the member list with complete name & email addresses. I unsubscribed the partials, and re-added them as full versions. However the updated member list keeps showing the partial address only. This bug also works the other way. I added "Bob Smith <bob(a)bob.com>", checked it was there in list. Unsubscribed the address, and then re-added as "bob(a)bob.com" -- now in the members list it appears as the full "Bob Smith <bob(a)bob.com>.

Posting replies vs starting a thread via email
by paul＠arenson.org 05 Sep '19

05 Sep '19

In my tests where replies go to the list, when a person uses the email client? So far a reply to the original message and a reply to a reply to a reply all go in the same thread. Is this standard? Do I have to warn users not to have endless Re re re re? And the other question is what happens if a user sends a message via email with a new subject? Does the list accept it as a new thread? This should be one of my last big questions. Thank you. Paul

Amazon SES
by Andrew Bernard 05 Sep '19

05 Sep '19

Is it possible to use Amazon SES with Mailman? Despite my best efforts, I have conclusively verified my sending domain, but Amazon SES rejects mails with the 'sender email not verified' message. If you verify a domain, you do not have to verift individual senders. The help from amazon SES mentions it looks at several headers, but I am not sure what is what. Has anybody had success with this?

How to delete an archive
by Andrew Bernard 05 Sep '19

05 Sep '19

I deleted a list but I want to delete the archive as well. How do you do that? Also, I had a list called Test. I deleted it. I made a new list called Testing, with a different email address, bu the archive points to the test list. This seems to be messed up. Why? I am sorry to say I have had continuous trouble with many aspects of Hyperkitty from the beginning several months ago. I know that is not helpful, but I am starting to wonder about all this. Andrew

Editing templates from settings
by paul＠arenson.org 05 Sep '19

05 Sep '19

Hello again. Gradually coming along thanks to the help of other members. One thing I want to do is edit my headers or footers to have key info about my site. But it seems even if I skip spaces, when a message is received the spaces disappear. Likewise, is there any way to add basic formatting like BOLD? For example, if I make a footer like this... Skipping a space here __/__/__/__/__/_/__/__/__/__/ Our List _/__/__/__/__/_/__/__/__/__/ Skipping a space here ...the centering disappears, as do the skipped spaces, meaning the message after a header or before a footer looks cluttered, Is there a fix? Thank you.
