Mail going to Held Messaging even the moderation is set to Accept Immediately
by Shashikanth Komandoor 21 Jul '20

21 Jul '20

Hi Team, I am currently running Mailman 3 with version 3.3.1 and in built postfix version 2.10.1-6 on RHEL 7.5 in production environment from the past 2 months almost. Recently I observed a peculiar case. There is a list say testlist(a)lists.testdom.com has a member say testuser(a)testdom.com whose Moderation attribute is set to "Accept immediately (bypass all other rules)". It is expected that the mail should be delivered to the recipients without being held irrespective of the body content as per my knowledge. (Correct me if I am wrong). But the mail went to "held messages" and is waiting for pending approval. The same user if he sends a normal and simple test mail, it is getting delivered automatically without coming to the "held message". And the same mail (which went to "held messages") is tried to be sent by another member whose moderation attribute is also set to "Accept immediately" only but observed the same effect as the message going to the "held messages". As per my understanding on Mailman 3, if the moderation attribute is set to "Accept immediately (bypass all other rules)" then without checking any rules, it should be delivered to the recipients of the list irrespective of the message or body of the message but is there any such checking if the body content or subject or any thing else is checked even if the moderation bit is set to "Accept immediately". Please help me to resolve this issue. Also, please let me know if I need to share any details. -- Thanks & Regards, Shashi Kanth.K 9052671936 <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campai…> Virus-free. www.avast.com <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campai…> <#DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2>

Sudden increase in "***UNCHECKED***" in email subjects
by Dave Clements 20 Jul '20

20 Jul '20

Hi all, I have just noticed a big jump in the number of emails going out with "***UNCHECKED***" added to the subject line. Some of these are from users who had their moderation set to "Accept Immediately," but even after I change that to "Default processing" I am still getting those messages. The default action for members is "Default processing" Any ideas what settings I am missing? Thanks, Dave C -- https://bcc2020.github.io/ https://galaxyproject.org/

Confusing mailman user model
by Gilles Filippini 19 Jul '20

19 Jul '20

Hi, I'm trying to understand the Mailman user model, and I'm confused about the respective roles of tables 'auth_user' and 'user'. Both have an 'id' column referred to as 'user_id' when used as a foreign key. But there seems to be no relation at all between them as they use different ids for the same user. Our mailman server was migrated from mailman2 to mailman3 about 1.5 year ago, and there is an inconsistency I'd like to fix: 2 of our users have a registered Mailman account with their respective email addresses in table 'auth_user', but these very same addresses in the 'address' table are linked to another old admin account in the 'user' table. Then if add one of these addresses as a domain owner, it it the old admin address which is selected instead. How could I fix that? Thanks in advance, _g.

Hi, I'd like to delegate lists creation to a couple of other users. I've added their email addresses as domain owners, but still they don't have the "Create New List" button available. Which condition a mailman user has to fulfill to be allowed to create new lists? Thanks, _g.

Also deleted website example.com
by w.schoener＠alp.dillingen.de 17 Jul '20

Hi there, i also deleted the website example.com, while I tried to configure my mailman 3 site. Now I get a Server-error, when I try to open my mailman3 sites: "An error occurred while processing your request" I tried to fix this problem by changing the SITE_ID=2 in my settings_local.py. But nothing helped, also the SITE_ID=0 did change nothing. I made a "/etc/init.d/apache2 restart" to ensure, that the settings are loaded again, but it didnt help. Is there anything I can do, besides reinstalling all django and mailman 3? Mailman Version 3.2.1, Python 2.7.16, Django 1.11.28 Thanks for any hints :-) Wolfgang

The Use of Hyperkitty as a Forum and Archiver
by Brian Carpenter 15 Jul '20

15 Jul '20

Dear Mailman 3 Users, Since Mailman 3 includes a forum feature via Hyperkitty, I would like to know the following: - Has the forum feature (Hyperkitty) of MM3 been received well by your list members or is it mostly ignored? - Do you see an increase in the use of HK as a forum from your list members? - What kind of feedback have you received from your list members considering the forum function of MM3? Positive or negative? - Do you think HK is received well by your list members as an archiver and do you think it provides a better user experience for viewing/searching archives vs Pipermail of MM2? Thank you for anything you shared. I am very curious to know the state of Hyperkitty among the Mailman 3 user community. -- Please let me know if you need further assistance. Thank you for your business. We appreciate our clients.

Re: Using external services for deliverability?

Thank you both for the help. I have SPF and reverse DNS setup. But I thought DKIM is no help because Mailman rewrites the email headers?

mailman3 does not send to the members of the lists
by maszap＠tin.it 12 Jul '20

12 Jul '20

Goodmorning everyone, I'm setting up a mail server to manage a mailinglist. I installed mailman3-full and configured everything. I can create a list, add members to the list, but when I create a new thread, I only get it on the email from the same domain as the list. While all the other members of the list, they do not receive the thread. I tried to check the logs, but I don't see anything significant. What can I check? Thank you in advance Max
