Hello,
Our company is evaluating mailman3 as an option for company internal list serving.
One of the requirements is that anyone with access to the list server be allowed to create and manage lists.
Is this possible? If so, how? Is there a "create list" role that can be added for all registered users?
Thanks
I'm in an odd situation where I need to rename a bunch of lists. They
were all created on mailman2 originally and migrated to mailman3 (very
successfully, TYVM) but the names were all originally
discuss-<foo>@domain and it's very confusing to be sure you're always
sending to the correct <foo>. We want to completely rename the lists to
<foo>-discuss@domain.
These lists do not keep archives, so if I have to resort to extracting
the subscriber lists and the configs and building new lists, I'm
completely fine with that. Problem is, I'm really used to MM2 and
config_list and could do this without thinking using those tools... that
I don't have.
Running MM3 3.2.2 trying to make this happen. Any assistance I could
get will be greatly appreciated.
THANKS!

Hi list,
how can I disable user registration? There are only two users, me - the admin - and an additional owner/moderator. The list setup we use is completely managed by the owner/moderator (about 100 mail adresses per list).
Thanks

In the annoucement mail, the new version is
- Mailman Core 3.3.0 (Tom Swayer)
but on my webpage I see:
Mailman Core Version GNU Mailman 3.3.0 (La Villa Strangiato)
Mailman Core API Version 3.0
Mailman Core Python Version 3.7.3 (default, Apr 3 2019, 05:39:12) [GCC 8.3.0]
Why is the version name from the previous release?
is my setup wrong?
[There are so many issues I keep reporting here about Mailman that get no response that I wonder if there is something fundamentally wrong with my site.]

Is it possible for a list admin to modify the welcome message for a list via Postorius? Is the process:
1. Log into Postorious
2. Click on the Templates tab.
3. Select New Template.
4. Select "The notice sent to a member when they are subscribed to the mailing list"
5. Add your text and click the save button.
Is the correct process? I am using the latest Docker release of Mailman 3.
Dear list,
on our Mailman 3 system we are hitting the following error by clicking a link to admin/django_q/ormq/:

Any ideas how to see the complete queue an maybe delete some defunct entries?
Hi,
I set up the mailman3 services and lists, and we can send mail to the
list successfully. However in the Archive section I couldn't see
anything and all the lists were "inactive" and hence were hidden by default.
I confirmed that api_key set in the /etc/mailman3/mailman-hyperkitty.cfg
and /etc/mailman3/mailman-web.py is the same. I also confirmed that the
apache2 wsgi module has been loaded.
In the mailman.cfg database is set to mysql and in the mailman-web.py
database is set to sqlite3. Does it matter? I tried to search but
couldn't find any further information or discussion about this.
There is no systemd service for Hyperkitty. How can I check if
Hyperkitty is running or not?
Thanks, Franklin
Hi,
I've just upgraded to Mailman 3.2.0 (finally everything Python 3 now,
thanks!) and it appears to work. However, there's a repeating error
message in mailman-suite's logfile for Hyperkitty that looks like this:

The error repeats every minute, so I suppose it comes from the minutely

* * * * * mailman bash -c 'cd /home/mailman && . /home/mailman/env3/bin/activate && django-admin runjobs minutely --pythonpath /home/mailman/mailman-suite/mailman-suite_project --settings settings'
What's wrong here?

Hi all,
I want to update some list member's display_name either with mailman shell or mailmanclient. These mostly aren't users in Postorius so I only want to operate on the subscribed list member. I've tried everything I can find in the docs and am stuck.
I've tried using `user_manager.get_user()` and then updating `user.display_name` followed by a `commit()` but it doesn't seem to persist the change.
The `absorb_existing` flag for mailmanclient's `User.add_address()` looks promising but the docs read "It will import the existing user into the current one, not overwriting any previously set value." which in some cases, the member already has a display_name set. I haven't tried this yet.
I'd appreciate any help pointing in the right direction.
Thanks,
Nick
