Bulk update of members' moderation settings
by Alex King 18 Nov '21

18 Nov '21

I imported a list from mailman 2.1 using https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/migration.html. It happens that emergency moderation was set on the mailman 2.1 list, and this has resulted in all members having Moderation set to Hold. I now want to change that to Default Processing for all members. Is there a way to achieve that in bulk without clicking through the members options for each member in Postorius? Thanks, Alex

'str' object has no attribute 'token_type'
by Marco Marinello 16 Nov '21

16 Nov '21

Hi everybody, I'm sorry for being always the strange guy with strange errors here but for some reason... I am. On a Mailman installation that was doing just fine for more than a year, I started receiving error messages per email. It happens when mailman daemon archives a messages. Although the messages is correctly archived, this exception is thrown by Hyperkitty: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/lib/python3.9/dist-packages/django/core/handlers/exception.py", line 47, in inner response = get_response(request) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.9/dist-packages/django/core/handlers/base.py", line 181, in _get_response response = wrapped_callback(request, *callback_args, **callback_kwargs) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.9/dist-packages/django/views/decorators/http.py", line 40, in inner return func(request, *args, **kwargs) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.9/dist-packages/hyperkitty/views/mailman.py", line 118, in _decorator return func(request, *args, **kwargs) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.9/dist-packages/django/views/decorators/csrf.py", line 54, in wrapped_view return view_func(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.9/dist-packages/hyperkitty/views/mailman.py", line 164, in archive add_to_list(mlist_fqdn, msg) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.9/dist-packages/hyperkitty/lib/incoming.py", line 79, in add_to_list from_str = header_to_unicode(message['From']) File "/usr/lib/python3.9/email/message.py", line 391, in __getitem__ the values matching a header field name.

Other installations with same specs I'm managing to do not encounter this problem. Any clue of what could have happened, why and how to fix it? Thanks in advance, Marco

Race condition when mass subscribing same email addresses to two lists?
by Alan So 14 Nov '21

14 Nov '21

We are testing the latest Mailman core 3.3.5 and Postorius 1.3.6. My colleagues reported that some email addresses cannot subscribe to the lists when two of them are using mass subscribe feature to add email addresses to the list. Then I try whether I can repeat the same issue. I did this: 1) Create two lists with default setting 2) Prepare a list of 1000 fresh email addresses not added to the system before 3) Mass subscribe both lists of these 1000 email addresses around the same time with all three Pre (confirm, approved, verified) checked There are quite a lot of similar errors in mailman.log. Did not study the code yet. Which part is causing the issue? SQLAlchemy 1.3.24 psycopg2-binary 2.8.6 [2021-10-28 08:38:30 +0000] [20141] [ERROR] Error handling request /3.1/members Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/mailman/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/gunicorn/workers/sync.py", line 136, in handle self.handle_request(listener, req, client, addr) File "/opt/mailman/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/gunicorn/workers/sync.py", line 179, in handle_request respiter = self.wsgi(environ, resp.start_response) File "/opt/mailman/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/mailman/database/transaction.py", line 51, in wrapper config.db.commit() File "/opt/mailman/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/mailman/database/base.py", line 52, in commit self.store.commit() File "/opt/mailman/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/sqlalchemy/orm/session.py", line 1046, in commit self.transaction.commit() File "/opt/mailman/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/sqlalchemy/orm/session.py", line 502, in commit self._assert_active(prepared_ok=True) File "/opt/mailman/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/sqlalchemy/orm/session.py", line 296, in _assert_active code="7s2a", sqlalchemy.exc.InvalidRequestError: This Session's transaction has been rolled back due to a previous exception during flush.

Bug in 2.1.36?
by Joel Lord 12 Nov '21

12 Nov '21

I'm not sure if this is a bug or something about the new CSRF fix doesn't get along with something I have (mis)configured, but this definitely seems to be related. Sadly the script I use to backup mailman before upgrading I recently stopped backing up the lists themselves, so going back to 2.1.35 doesn't seem to be an option due to the .pck file version bump. Here's the trace I get: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/mailman/mailman-${domainslug}/scripts/driver", line 117, in run_main main() File "/mailman/mailman-${domainslug}/Mailman/Cgi/admindb.py", line 342, in main print doc.Format() File "/mailman/mailman-${domainslug}/Mailman/htmlformat.py", line 352, in Format output.append(Container.Format(self, indent)) File "/mailman/mailman-${domainslug}/Mailman/htmlformat.py", line 267, in Format output.append(HTMLFormatObject(item, indent)) File "/mailman/mailman-${domainslug}/Mailman/htmlformat.py", line 53, in HTMLFormatObject return item.Format(indent) File "/mailman/mailman-${domainslug}/Mailman/htmlformat.py", line 445, in Format % csrf_token(self.mlist, self.contexts, self.user) File "/mailman/mailman-${domainslug}/Mailman/CSRFcheck.py", line 53, in csrf_token mac = sha_new(secret + `issued`).hexdigest() TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'NoneType' and 'str' Running Python 2.7.5 . -- Joel Lord

Filtering signed mails
by Rainer Herbst 12 Nov '21

12 Nov '21

Dear all, today I recived a user complain that his messages were rejected with error "The message's content type was not explicitly allowed" I checked the list and indeed, it was configured to filter content and to allow only a very limited number of content types, namely application/pdf and image/jpeg. After some experiments, the problems seems to be the s/mime signature. The messages contain a signature: <snip> Content-Type: application/x-pkcs7-signature; name="smime.p7s" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="smime.p7s" <snap> I added this type to the allowed MIME content type, but signed messages are still rejected. What do I miss?

Moderation Action Changed After Import
by Brian Carpenter 12 Nov '21

12 Nov '21

I migrated a Mailman 2 list using import21 and the list's config.pck into a Mailman 3 list. The list owner reported back that about 98% of the list members had their moderation setting changed to Reject (with notification). He said the previous moderation was the list's default which was hold for moderation. Is such a thing possible with an import job? Is this perhaps a bug that has been reported previously? -- Brian Carpenter Harmonylists.com Emwd.com

Issues with cross posted emails after upgrading to mailman 3.3.6
by Simon Coggins 10 Nov '21

10 Nov '21

Since upgrading from 3.3.4 to 3.3.6 we are seeing a high instance of emails that are sent to 2 lists (EG 2 campuses). One campus will get the email and the other campus will get an email that just contains "The content of this message was lost. It was probably cross-posted to multiple lists and previously handled on another list.” Is this something new in 3.3.6? I’m trying to work out what’s going on and why it would be lost. Both lists need the email as the membership list is different so the people on the second list get a useless email. -Simon --- [https://www.cqu.edu.au/] Mr Simon Coggins Principal Systems Engineer | Digital Services Directorate CQUniversity Australia, Level 6.14, 160 Ann Street, Brisbane, QLD 4000 P +61 7 3295 1182 | X 51182 | M +61 408 115 861 | E s.coggins(a)cqu.edu.au<mailto:s.coggins@cqu.edu.au> [https://www.cqu.edu.au/social-media] I respectfully acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the land on which we work and learn, and pay respect to the First Nations Peoples and their Elders, past, present and future.

outgoing.py mailman@example.com issue

I deployed Mailman3 last night and today we've had some "bounced" messages with headers referencing mailman(a)example.com. This has only happened with a few lists. Any ideas what causes this? We are using an SMTP relay server for incoming and outgoing messages in front of the Mailman3 service. Thanks!

Mailman Suite installation on CentOS 7
by Kimmo L 08 Nov '21

08 Nov '21

Hello! I want to install fresh Mailman, which is combined with hyperkitty+postorius. After checking documentation i found, that Mailman Suite is perfect for me. But i have some misunderstandings about installation. I only found this part in documentation, which explains how to clone and start using Mailman Suite (https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/devsetup.html#run-the-mailman-suite-com…) But am i correct, that before doing so, i need to install mailman core, mailman client, django-mailman3 ? Or what would be the correct steps to build up my first Mailman Suite on CentOS? Br, Kimmo

Showing sender as ... via ... list
by Wolfgang Bock 08 Nov '21

08 Nov '21

Hello, after correcting little discrepancies within the mm3 configuration proposals in the debian buster package and the help of Mark I am very pleased with it now. BTW: There is a very helpfull instruction for installing other mail components like dovecot/postfix/etc on https://workaround.org/ispmail/buster/ actually not yet for bullseye, but my experience is: it will come soon. So I dont understand the discussions like: "hands off debian mm3 packages". Here is my question: What do I have to configure to get my lists to show the sender like in this list: Wolfgang Bock via Mailman-users mailman-users(a)mailman3.org <mailto:mailman-users@mailman3.org> I tried several combinations but failed upto now. Can someone help?? Regards Wolfgang
