DMARC Mitigation Wrap
by Allan Hansen 27 Jan '20

27 Jan '20

All, After a reinstall I’m back to thinking about the MM3 DMARC mitigation issue. Until munging can be improved, I will be using the option to wrap: MM3 has the option to wrap the main message with a wrap_message. It appears, however, that MM3 is oblivious to all my attempts to include whitespace, in this case a <cr>. When the enclosed message is automatically unwrapped by the receiving client, this causes the wrap and enclosed message's From: header to butt up against each other, which is rather ugly. I tried many tricks, but none worked, such as, <cr>, SPACE+, TAB+, <BLANKLINE>, SHIFT-RETURN, two RETURNS, \r\n and UTF-8 codes. They all either got ignored or copied as entered to the output message. Here’s an example. I just want to put a divider after the wrap_message main text. The From address of this message has been replaced with the list address, while the From name has 'via list' appended. Please be careful when using 'via list' addresses later for new emails, as they will be sent to the whole list.\r\n -------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------\r\n From: Allan Hansen <allan_hansen(a)icloud.com <mailto:allan_hansen@icloud.com>> Subject: [Testlist] wrap with divider and BLANKLINE Which coding option am I missing? I have searched for one online. Yours, Allan Hansen allan_hansen(a)icloud.com

Header and footer templates in MM3
by Gila Halpern 26 Jan '20

26 Jan '20

I read the earlier message from Peter Mueller about message decoration, and where the templates are in the file system. However, when I edit the header and footer templates in Postorius, those templates do not appear in the location specified. Should I be looking somewhere else? (I intend to write a program to rotate though several headers/footers, so I need to know where to have it write to.) Gila Halpern

Can I install Mailman 3.3 on RHEL 8 ?
by Shashikanth Komandoor 25 Jan '20

25 Jan '20

Hi Team/Sir, Can Mailman 3.3 be installed on RHEL 8? I got this query because while I was trying to install the prerequisites for Mailman 3.3 as per the website http://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/devsetup.html I found nodejs-less is also to be installed. But I don't find the nodejs-less as part of BaseOS packages or the AppStream modules. Please suggest how to go ahead. -- Thanks & Regards, Shashi Kanth.K 9052671936

Cannot see the cron jobs for Mailman 3 Installed
by Shashikanth Komandoor 24 Jan '20

24 Jan '20

Hi, I have setup the Mailman 3 on my RHEL 7.5 box and found it was working fine. But I found that I am not getting daily summary notifications for which I learnt after browsing through different websites, there should be an entry of *checkdb* in the cron job list. But I did not find any such nor I don't find any cron job updated after the installation of mailman 3. So, please guide how to get those cron jobs of mailman 3 installed again without disturbing the already installed setup. Thanks in advance. -- Thanks & Regards, Shashi Kanth.K 9052671936

Hello, While following https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/migration.html, I want to execute: python manage.py hyperkitty_import -l foo-list(a)example.com $var_prefix/archives/private/foo-list.mbox/foo-list.mbox Of course edited with values for my list.

start_chain not present in migrated lists
by Paul Honig 21 Jan '20

21 Jan '20

Hi, Please let me know where I can post my question if this list is not the right place. I'm configuring a mailing list server, migrating from Mailman 2.1 to 3.2.2, and I can't get the migrated mailing lists to work. When I create new mailing lists there is no problem. Here are the versions of Mailman I run : mailman 3.2.2 mailman-hyperkitty (1.1.0) django-mailman3 (1.2.0) postorius (1.3.2) mailmanclient (3.2.2) HyperKitty (1.2.2) The command line I use the migrate the mailing list: /opt/mailman_venv/bin/mailman -C /opt/mailman_venv/var/etc/mailman.cfg import21 mltest(a)test.domain /var/vmail/mig/data/lists/mltest/config.pck When I send an email to a migrated list, of which I made myself a member, no mail is sent, and I get the following stack trace in the log: ==> /var/log/mailman/mailman.log <== Jan 21 15:02:37 2020 (15948) Uncaught runner exception: None Jan 21 15:02:37 2020 (15948) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/mailman_venv/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/mailman/core/runner.py", line 173, in _one_iteration self._process_one_file(msg, msgdata) File "/opt/mailman_venv/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/mailman/core/runner.py", line 266, in _process_one_file keepqueued = self._dispose(mlist, msg, msgdata) File "/opt/mailman_venv/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/mailman/runners/incoming.py", line 79, in _dispose process(mlist, msg, msgdata, start_chain) File "/opt/mailman_venv/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/mailman/core/chains.py", line 40, in process chain = config.chains[start_chain] KeyError: None Jan 21 15:02:37 2020 (15948) SHUNTING: 1579615357.5331464+c5918e305ec281d47ef0caaed070c8c4bde26ee3 It seems like the start_chain has value 'None' and that prevents the mail from processed, but I can't find where to correctly set the start_chain.

Handling of SPAM mails in mailman3 - Check for X-Spam Header
by Torge Riedel 19 Jan '20

19 Jan '20

Hi, we migrated successfully to mailman3 so far. I have some questions regarding handling of SPAM mails in mailman, this is the second question: Such SPAM mails are currently hold for moderation with reason "not from a list member". Is there no check for the "X-Spam: Yes" header or is this check done later? I would prefer that a check for such a header is done first and is reported as the reason. Which is IMHO a very important information. Or maybe show "This is detected as SPAM" in big bold red letters in a new column in the list of mails to moderate for such a mail. Maybe there is more eye-candy solution for it. Sometimes mail accounts of allowed users are hacked and we do not want spread SPAM accidently. On my setup all mails are checked by rspamd before local delivery and I see that the "X-Spam" header is set for such mails. So even mails from allowed members with header "X-Spam: Yes" should be hold for moderation. Maybe this is already the case, did not gave it a try yet. Best regards Torge

Handling of SPAM mails in mailman3 - Do not append original mail to moderation mail
by Torge Riedel 19 Jan '20

19 Jan '20

Hi, we migrated successfully to mailman3 so far. I have some questions regarding handling of SPAM mails in mailman, here is the first, second comes in a separate post: The list moderator currently receives a copy of the original mail in the info mail he gets for moderation. This is bad in case it was a SPAM mail, cause we have seen that such an info mail is detected also as SPAM. That might rise problems cause other mail servers might block the info mail as SPAM and if this happens too often blocking the whole server. I fear. At least I see that my rspamd starts learning the info mail as SPAM. I don't want that to happen. I searched mailman web interface for a setting to disable adding a copy to the info mail. But have not found it. Is it missing or where do I have to look? Best regards Torge

Mailman runners missing - nothing in logs
by Torge Riedel 19 Jan '20

19 Jan '20

Hi, since migration from mailman2 to mailman3 I had twice the following, last time today: When sending a mail to a list I get the following reply from postfix after a while: connect to 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]:8024: Connection refused Searched on that and found some posts, where the following shell command is named to check what is running: ps -fwwu mailman And I get this as output: UID PID PPID C STIME TTY TIME CMD mailman 1166 1 0 Jan07 ? 00:00:01 /opt/mailman/core/venv/bin/python3 /opt/mailman/core/venv/bin/master -C /opt/mailman/core/mailman.cfg mailman 1180 1166 0 Jan07 ? 00:03:09 /opt/mailman/core/venv/bin/python3 /opt/mailman/core/venv/bin/runner -C /opt/mailman/core/mailman.cfg --runner=rest:0:1 mailman 1212 1180 0 Jan07 ? 00:01:10 /opt/mailman/core/venv/bin/python3 /opt/mailman/core/venv/bin/runner -C /opt/mailman/core/mailman.cfg --runner=rest:0:1 mailman 11039 11036 0 06:25 ? 00:00:03 /usr/bin/uwsgi-core --ini mailman3.ini mailman 11064 11039 0 06:25 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/uwsgi-core --ini mailman3.ini mailman 11065 11039 0 06:25 ? 00:00:01 /usr/bin/uwsgi-core --ini mailman3.ini mailman 17257 1180 0 Jan12 ? 00:00:37 /opt/mailman/core/venv/bin/python3 /opt/mailman/core/venv/bin/runner -C /opt/mailman/core/mailman.cfg --runner=rest:0:1 Lots of expected runners are missing.

I checked all the logs prior to restarting the service in directory /opt/mailman/var/log, but I do not see any errors. And the master was still running, I would expect that the master will start / restart a runner in case it died? Fun fact: First time of this problem was two weeks from now, which was two weeks after migration to mailman3. I'm excited if it will happen in two weeks again. Installed packages for core: mailman (3.3.0) mailman-hyperkitty (1.1.0) Any suggestions where I should have a deeper look and maybe find the root cause of this problem? Thanks in advance Torge

Another set of new releases
by Abhilash Raj 19 Jan '20

19 Jan '20

Hi Everyone, Hope everyone had a great weekend! I am pleased to announce new set of releases: - Postorius 1.3.2 - Django-mailman3 1.3.2 - Hyperkitty 1.3.2 This release was required as it turned out 1.3.1 releases did not includes translations in the tarballs that I created and uploaded to PyPI. They do include a couple of bugfixes and more translations. - Hyperkitty (https://hyperkitty.readthedocs.io/en/latest/news.html#id1) - Postorius (https://postorius.readthedocs.io/en/latest/news.html#id1) All three of these releases also officially drop support for Django 1.11. Although, there hasn't been any code change that breaks compatibility with 1.11. It has just been dropped form our CI machinery since our dependencies no longer support 1.11. All the releases are available on PyPI, as usual! -- Thanks Abhilash Raj
