In the example I'm looking at right now, the sender was not a member of the list, but the Accept these non-members box in the list settings has a regexp that matches the sender's domain.

First of all, the discard has nothing to do with whether the sender has any connection to the list. It only says the message had no sender at all. Assuming the message had a From: with a syntactically valid email address, this discard should not occur. Also, if the envelope (MAIL FROM:) was a syntactically valid email address, this discard should not occur. The address is validated by mailman/email/validate.py by first splitting it into `local_part`, `@`, `[domain_parts]` where domain_parts are the `between dots` parts of the domain and then validating the local_part and domain with regexps defined per > # What other characters should be allowed? > _valid_local = re.compile("[-0-9a-z!#$%&'*+./=?@_`{}~]", re.IGNORECASE) > # Strictly speaking, both ^ and | are allowed and others are allowed in quoted > # local parts, but this can open the door to certain web exploits so we don't > # allow them. > _valid_domain = re.compile('[-a-z0-9]', re.IGNORECASE) > # These are the only characters allowed in domain parts.

I have a user attempting to access the list archives and he’s generating this login error. I have verified that he does have a django account.

OS upgrade - anything to take care of?
by Torge Riedel May 15, 2021

May 15, 2021

Dear MM3 users, today I upgraded one of two servers from Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04 and - besides some minor config updates - postfix & dovecot worked well afterwards. So I am very optimistic that the upgrade of the second server from 18.04 to 20.04 will also work fine. But the second server is running MM3 (installed in venv) and I saw that on upgrade Python 3.8 is installed. Is there anything I have to take care of? Anything to do / change in venv? Kind regards Torge

Hi, Hyperkitty 1.3.4. I am trying to download a complete list mbox by going to all threads view and using the download option. I have tried a couple of tools (Gunzip and Winrar) and both are giving me an unexpected end of file when trying to decompress the gz file. Here is the list URL I am using: https://lists.hodgsonfamily.org/hyperkitty/list/plextalk@lists.hodgsonfamil… Any suggestions? Thanks. Andrew.

Problems with New MM3 Installation
by Jeff May 12, 2021

May 12, 2021

After using Mailman 2 (and possibly 1 though I don’t remember) for almost 20 years, I have just upgraded to Mailman 3. I followed the instructions here: https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html#virtualenv-inst… Things generally work, but I have run into a couple of small problems: 1) The uwsgi-error.log is filling with errors that seem to culminate in "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘settings’”. My settings.py is located in “/etc/mailman3” and seems to be found by other components of MM3. This error must be coming from the cron jobs. Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this problem? 2) While old messages were imported without issue, new emails are not being archives. I see them in: mailman3/mm/var/archives/prototype/[listname]@[domain]/new But they are not being delivered. I have added this to my mailman.cfg: [archiver.hyperkitty] class: mailman_hyperkitty.Archiver enable: yes configuration: /usr/local/mailman3/mailman-hyperkitty.cfg And created the "/usr/local/mailman3/mailman-hyperkitty.cfg” as such: base_url: http://localhost/archives/ api_key: [key that matches “MAILMAN_ARCHIVER_KEY” in my settings.py] Some documentation says that the url should be "http://localhost/hyperkitty/“, but url generates a page not found error on my setup while the archives are available at the “archives” url. I would greatly appreciate any assistance with these two issues. Thanks much, Jeff

List Digest - Subject line
by smorytko＠gmail.com May 12, 2021

May 12, 2021

Is there a way to optionally cause the Subject line to display with the text body and as a summary at the top of the digest? I ask because on our mailing list (and probably many others too) subscribers include important content in the subject line and do NOT repeat it in the body of the text. So when the digest formatting places the Subject lines at the top to create "Today's Topics" as it does for all digest subscribers, the subject line and text body are widely separated making comprehension of the message much more difficult and separating important content unless it's repeated. This also happens on our list which uses Affinity/Empathy rather than Hyperkitty. In general, while a Today's Topics summary is useful, I think it would be preferable to always include the subject line with the body (one add'l line per digest message). Again I'm wondering if this is a web front-end function, a MM3 core function, or perhaps both? I ask because if it's not a MM3 core function I'll need to ask our developer for an Empathy modification. Below is an example from an Empathy-base list that shows how difficult it is to fully comprehend messages when the subject line is separated from the text body. The same issue would seem to be present in a Hyperkitty based list: Today's Topics: 1. Wilson’s Warbler (Albert Laguna) 2. RB Nuthatch, Kent (John Johnson) 3. Happy Mothers Day Summer Tanager (Visit Today Only) (Aidan Kiley) 4. Wimisink Sora, Marsh Wren (Angela Dimmitt) 5. Stn 43 South Windsor (Paul Desjardins) 6.
