Hello all, Happy new year! I have a case where a user (set to be moderated), posts a message. She got the appropriate email back saying she was being held for moderation. However, the moderator did not get the email. I found the following block in mailman.log: Dec 28 19:37:44 2021 (33) Uncaught runner exception: 'ascii' codec can't encode character '\u2019' in position 5: ordinal not in range(128) Dec 28 19:37:44 2021 (33) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/mailman/core/runner.py", line 173, in _one_iteration self._process_one_file(msg, msgdata) File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/mailman/core/runner.py", line 266, in _process_one_file keepqueued = self._dispose(mlist, msg, msgdata) File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/mailman/runners/incoming.py", line 79, in _dispose process(mlist, msg, msgdata, start_chain) File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/mailman/core/chains.py", line 79, in process link.function(mlist, msg, msgdata) File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/mailman/chains/hold.py", line 234, in _process text = MIMEText(expand(template, mlist, substitutions), File "/usr/lib/python3.8/email/mime/text.py", line 42, in __init__ self.set_payload(_text, _charset) File "/usr/lib/python3.8/email/message.py", line 315, in set_payload payload = payload.encode(charset.output_charset) UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character '\u2019' in position 5: ordinal not in range(128) Dec 28 19:37:44 2021 (33) SHUNTING: 1640720264.0541506+b139f885caa9444586b43093a09991b7c19581e6 There are two owners listed, one of them is also listed as the moderator. "mailman version" says: GNU Mailman 3.3.4 (Tom Sawyer) We are running from Docker. I can send you the pck file offline if that would help. Thank you, Seth

HyperKitty failure

Hi, I try to connect mailman3 to hyperkitty, but there is no success so far. You can see the details below. How can I solve the problem? As I have several domain name (like lists.xxx.hu, xxx.hu, yyy.hu) on the same server, so I guess localhost won't work. In mailman-hyperkitty.cfg there is a line: base_url: http://lists.xxx.hu/hyperkitty/ /etc/mailman3/mailman-web.py includes "*" in ALLOWED_HOSTS I have an error message in /var/log/mailman3/mailman.log Dec 30 21:41:23 2021 (126976) HyperKitty failure on http://lists.xxx.hu/hyperkitty/api/mailman/archive: (405) Dec 30 21:41:23 2021 (126976) Exception in the HyperKitty archiver: Dec 30 21:41:23 2021 (126976) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/mailman_hyperkitty/__init__.py", line 154, in _archive_message url = self._send_message(mlist, msg) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/mailman_hyperkitty/__init__.py", line 210, in _send_message raise ValueError(result.text) ValueError In /var/log/mailman3/web/mailman-web.log WARNING 2021-12-30 20:41:23,816 127032 django.request Method Not Allowed (GET): /hyperkitty/api/mailman/archive [pid: 127032|app: 0|req: 101/101] 109.230.236.204 () {38 vars in 592 bytes} [Thu Dec 30 20:41:23 2021] GET /hyperkitty/api/mailman/archive?key=lHzJB%2FzfSWUrbPKZ84JNSlLXHVyCDt8T => generated 0 bytes in 1 msecs (HTTP/1.1 405) 6 headers in 189 bytes (1 switches on core 0) WARNING 2021-12-30 20:41:23,854 127032 django.request Method Not Allowed (GET): /hyperkitty/api/mailman/archive On Debian 11, I have these packages ii mailman3 3.3.3-1 all Mailing list management system ii mailman3-full 3.3.3-1 all Full Mailman3 mailing list management suite (metapackage) ii mailman3-web 0+20200530-2 all Django project integrating Mailman3 Postorius and HyperKitty ii python3-django-mailman3 1.3.5-2 all Django library to help interaction with Mailman3 (Python 3 version) ii python3-mailman-hyperkitty 1.1.0-10 all Mailman3 plugin to archive emails with HyperKitty Thanks, Arpad

signup / registration error - permissions and cert chains
by David Newman Jan. 1, 2022

Jan. 1, 2022

I'd like for regular (non-admin) list subscribers to be able to manage their subscription preferences and view list archives. However, when new users attempt to create logins from the Postorius "Sign Up" page, the server returns the error pasted below, and displays a "server error" page to users. If I'm reading the error correctly, this is related to an inability to verify the cert chain. The /etc/mailman3/settings.py file points to the same cert and key files used by Nginx, Postfix, and Dovecot. Since TLS works OK with these other services, it appears the cert and key are valid. (Viewing the cert in a web browser also supports this.) The keyfile has 0400 permissions. I tried changing this to 0640 and making the keyfile owned by root:mailman. Even after restarting mailman3 and mailmanweb the same error occurs. (Permissions in the cert and key directories and above are not blocking access.) The etc/mailman3/settings.py file includes these settings: EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend' EMAIL_HOST = 'localhost' EMAIL_PORT = 25 EMAIL_HOST_USER = 'dnewman(a)networktest.com' EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'wouldnt-you-like-to-know' EMAIL_USE_TLS = 'True' EMAIL_SSL_CERTFILE = '/etc/ssl/certs/myhost.crt' EMAIL_SSL_KEYFILE = '/etc/ssl/private/myhost.key' But this might only be for email, not Postorius/Django. I checked the Mailman Web docs and settings reference but didn't see anything relevant on either page. https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/config-web.html https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailman-web/en/latest/settings.html What additional configuration is needed to allow regular users to create and manage their own accounts?
