Hi Everyone, we have mailman 3.3.8 venv test installation which in general works fine however our mysql error log is filled up with messages below because they are so frequent. 2023-02-24 0:31:30 199567 [Warning] Aborted connection 199567 to db: 'mailman' user: 'mailman' host: 'localhost' (Got an error reading communication packets) 2023-02-24 0:36:30 201063 [Warning] Aborted connection 201063 to db: 'mailman' user: 'mailman' host: 'localhost' (Got an error reading communication packets) 2023-02-24 0:41:31 202559 [Warning] Aborted connection 202559 to db: 'mailman' user: 'mailman' host: 'localhost' (Got an error reading communication packets) 2023-02-24 0:46:31 204056 [Warning] Aborted connection 204056 to db: 'mailman' user: 'mailman' host: 'localhost' (Got an error reading communication packets) As suggested here https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/thread/… I tried to correlate with error logs and /opt/mailman/web/logs/mailmanweb.log shows some hyperkitty.lib.utils Failed to update the fulltext index: (2002, "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (111)" /opt/mailman/web/logs/uwsgi-error.log Message: OperationalError(2013, "Lost connection to MySQL server at 'handshake: reading initial communication packet', sy stem error: 104") but they have not such frequency so unsure if they are related. Thanks for the suggestions

Does Mailman 3 log subscribes and unsubscribes for each list the way Mailman 2 did? Brian

Questions regarding message acceptance
by Pawel Grzywaczewski Sept. 19, 2024

Sept. 19, 2024

Hello, I have few questions regarding usage of Mailman3: 1) We have list1 and list2 with members. Can we specify that all members of list1 can post messages to list2? We could potentially write a script that would synchronize members of another list to “Accept these non-members” of another list, but with thousands of lists it will be difficult to maintain lists in synchro. So perhaps there is a concept of adding another list to “Accept these non-members” and mailman real-time evaluate membership of another list upon message arrival? 2) In explanation of “Accept these non-members” it’s written: “While non-regexp addresses can be entered here, it is preferred to add the address as a nonmember and set the nonmember's Moderation to Default Processing”. I noticed that if someone posts to a list then he is added automatically to non-members. Which means that next time he will be able to post. My understanding is that it’s better to use the feature “Accept these non-members”. Am I correct? Thank you, Paweł

Disabled by bounce
by Allan Hansen Sept. 11, 2024

Sept. 11, 2024

Hi all, Apparently Google just started to get very aggressive about DKIM settings. Some hundreds of my subscribers have had their subscriptions disabled because of Google's bounces. I tried to 'Enable' some of them, expecting that their bounce scores would be reset, but when I list the users, the bounce scores are still 5. Please advise. Will enabling them without the bounce score being reset just cause the server to disable them again. Yours, Allan

Does Mailman 3 have something similar to https://www.msapiro.net/scripts/last_post.py displaying the last post time for a list or all lists?

MM3 generates long lines?
by peter＠chubb.wattle.id.au July 28, 2024

July 28, 2024

I'm seeing emails being dropped when mm3 talks to the local smtp server, with log errors like: 2021-06-23 15:42:24 1lvvea-007r8u-VN H=localhost (<FQDN>) [::1] F=<announce-bounces@<FQDN>> rejected after DATA: maximum allowed line length is 998 octets, got 1036 The email itself did not have such long lines AFAICT. I can disable line length checking on the mailserver, but that sounds like a recipe for the next one along to drop the email. Peter C

Change config to create a new list with all archives off

Can archiving be changed anywhere in mailman3 configs, so then all new lists created do not archive by default?

Mailman 3 hosting query
by Bill Robertson April 18, 2024

April 18, 2024

Hi I'm investigating the possibility of transferring a fairly small mailing list I own from Google Groups to MM3 via a hosting service. I'd appreciate any pointers regarding what I should be looking out for with companies that offer this service It also seems very hard to find out which hosting companies are worth considering (In particular, reliability and support are important) Any help much is much appreciated Thanks

mailman3 digest sending questions and also adding docker to the mix
by bob B April 17, 2024

April 17, 2024

So I have been down the digest rabbit hole. So to confirm my assumptions/findings: Digest size threshold---- means when the total size of held messages hits this setting, a digest is sent Digest Volume Frequency. ---- specifies when the digest volume number gets incremented for digest messages, IT DOES NOT send out digests based on the setting, daily, weekly ... So what does the GUI setting "Send Digest Periodically yes no" do? how periodically does it send digests, if this is set to yes? If I want to send a digest out for a list every day, or every week, how do I set that, especially in the docker environment? Is this something that can be configured in the GUI and configured by each of my list admins? I found that ”'mailman digests --periodic' via cron” should be set in googling, but does that mean I have to do a cron job for any list that wants a scheduled digest sent? My use case is, that I have a list admin who set a size threshold, but regardless of that, they also want their list digest sent out daily, they thought it was the "Digest Volume Frequency" setting but that is not correct. However in their testing they are not getting daily digest, they are getting digests only when the threshold is reached, BUT they have "Send Digest Periodically" set to "yes" and "Enable Digests" is set to "yes"
