template head/footer questions.
by bob B 11 Apr '22

11 Apr '22

I migrated from mailman 2 to mailman3 and had head/footer questions. In the mailman 3 GUI see the templates section, so where do those files get edited/stored? I added a footer to a list via the GUI, but I do not see it in: /var/templates/lists/[listNAME]/en I see some directories corresponding to list names in /var/templates/lists/ But I do not have a directory for all my lists and for the footer one I just added. Bottom line, I assume I should not edit or create any files in /var/templates/lists/ and just use the GUI? is this directory leftover from migrating from mailman 2 to 3? I have a list admin who has made some head and footer files and wants me to put them in /var/templates/lists/[listNAME]/en/.... but I think that may not be the best option.

out queue backlog and delivery rate
by dancab＠caltech.edu 11 Apr '22

We experienced an issue where our upstream mail protection gateway had an issue for a few hours. As a result out Mailman system was inundated with hundreds of messages within half an hour. Mail delivery is continuing at a snails pace and it is now 4 hours behind. I noticed that the system isn't overloaded either via CPU or Memory. It's just slowly "working on it". Are there rate limits that can be tuned for Mailman queues such as the "out" queue? Could this be IO related somehow? I'd expect there to be a CPU spike in that case. Please advise. Thanks in advance. ---- Dan Caballero Systems Administrator Academic Computing Solutions IMSS - Caltech https://imss.caltech.edu Is there anyway to

We have an old MailMan program for our 165 members. The developer has gone MIA. Is anyone interested in being our new admin and helping us update our MailMan software?

Looking for equivalent functions from mailman2
by Julian Kippels 06 Apr '22

Hi, I am currently in the process of converting all lists from our mailman2 instance to mailman3 lists. In the process I found that some of the mm2-commands that I have come to rely on are no longer available for mm3. For example, how could I get an equivalent output to what "list_owners -w" would have given me on mm2? The same goes for the old "list_members"-command. Thanks in advance Julian Kippels

NNTP support
by Philip Colmer 05 Apr '22

Hi I'm struggling to understand from the documentation what Mailman 3 supports with regards to NNTP. Does it only support sending emails to a configured news server or does it support NNTP access to itself by user client software? Thank you. Regards Philip
