One-click unsubscribe?
by Jered Floyd Dec. 16, 2025

Dec. 16, 2025

I'm having a lot of problems with GMail delivery due to lack of "one-click unsubscribe" -- however that is quantified, which is not clear. In particular, there is an issue with the fact that Google ignores dots in email addresses. So I have many (MANY!) subscribers who try to use the List-Unsubscribe header target, but because they are subscribed as "idiotsubscriber(a)gmail.com" rather than "idiot.subscriber(a)gmail.com" (which they have since changed their sender to) they get a reject that they are not subscribed. These people are also far too unobservant to read the footer of every message that reads "You are subscribed as idiotsubscriber(a)gmail.com". Is there any way to provide personalized List-Unsubscribe header links, or have Mailman ignore dots in gmail.com addresses... or... anything? I'm finding reported spam percentages in the Google Postmaster Dashboard exceeding 0.1%, which causes massive delivery blocking to GMail-based subscribers. While I would gladly ban everyone who uses gmail, that sadly accounts for about half of the Internet today and would be incredibly unproductive. Thanks, --Jered

Using clean_users.py
by Odhiambo Washington Dec. 8, 2025

Dec. 8, 2025

I have run clean_users.py with: DELETE_MAILMAN_USER = True DELETE_DJANGO_IF_MAILMAN = True However, when I go to https://mm3-site/mm/lists/listname.mm3-site/members/nonmember/ I still have hundreds of users listed despite the script having run and it showed hundreds of addresses removed. What might be the issue? I expect to NOT find anything listed as nonmembers. -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254 7 3200 0004/+254 7 2274 3223 In an Internet failure case, the #1 suspect is a constant: DNS. "Oh, the cruft.", egrep -v '^$|^.*#' ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ :-) [How to ask smart questions: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html]

Internal Server Error: /mailman3/accounts/fedora/login/
by Alain D D Williams Nov. 20, 2025

Nov. 20, 2025

Twice today I have received many (50+) emails like the one below. Many at about 1pm, then it stopped now I am getting them again. An Internet search does not bring up anything useful. The domain at the start of 'Request URL' varies as does the name of the list (in this example 'announce(a)leavesden.org') The domain of the list is not necessarily the same as the domain at the start of the URL. I can receive several in a minute. Anyone any idea ? ----- Forwarded message from root(a)bf2024.phcomp.co.uk ----- Date: Mon, 02 Dec 2024 22:19:12 -0000 From: root(a)bf2024.phcomp.co.uk To: root@localhost Subject: [Django] ERROR

Block members from sending cc's and bcc's
by Cathryn McGuire Nov. 15, 2025

Nov. 15, 2025

Hi everyone, Using Mailman 3 with Affinity web interface and we want to stop our members from sending to cc: or bcc: We've found the Header Filter and cc and bcc appear in it. Tried to configure it to "hold for moderation," but it hasn't worked. Partly because we don't understand what to put in the Pattern input box. I put in cc: because it requires something. Can anyone advise? Cheers, Cathryn

Xapian alternatives
by Andrew Bernard Nov. 11, 2025

Nov. 11, 2025

Are there alternative search engines to Xapian that can be used for Mailman 3? I have come to understand that Xapian development stalled in the v2.0 attempt.

"Something went wrong | Mailman REST API not available. Please restart Mailman core.
by Hirayama, Pat Oct. 31, 2025

Oct. 31, 2025

Greetings, Some of my lists have started displaying this behavior — when you try to access the list page(s), you get a page with this message: Something went wrong Mailman REST API not available. Please restart Mailman core. My mailman-core docker container is running, as are mailman-django-uwsgi, mailman-nginx and mailman-postfix. Restarting the containers doesn't change this behavior. Google suggests restarting mailman core. Or that we might not be using the correct account name, password or port. The weird thing is that it is not all lists. Most of them seem to be fine. Which suggests to me that the issue is with a few lists, but not systemwide, so I think my settings in mailman.cfg, settings.py, settings_local.py are likely correct. For the problem lists, I see this in the log: ERROR 2025-10-29 18:38:56,784 7 postorius Mailman REST API not available ERROR 2025-10-29 18:38:56,790 7 django.request Service Unavailable: /postorius/lists/obfuscated.name.lists.fhcrc.org/ ERROR 2025-10-29 18:38:56,790 7 django.request Service Unavailable: /postorius/lists/obfuscated.name.lists.fhcrc.org/ So, Postorius can't communicate with the API, I guess? I look at settings_local.py: MAILMAN_REST_API_URL = 'http://mailman-core:8001' I believe 8001 is the default, and since I haven't specified one in the [webservice] section of mailman.cfg, I'm assuming 8001 is correct (plus, it works for other lists). There are a few messages waiting for moderator approval — otherwise, I'd probably try just deleting the list and recreating it. Anyone have any suggestions on what else I should look at?

Mailman 3 MFA with django-allauth[mfa]
by Liam Reilly Oct. 29, 2025

Oct. 29, 2025

Has anyone successfully got MFA working in Mailman 3 with django-allauth[mfa]? I'm struggling to get it working with the limited documentation I could find. (https://docs.allauth.org/en/dev/mfa/index.html) If signed in as a user, I can browse to /accounts/2fa/ to activate MFA, but I was hoping to make it a mandatory part of the Sign Up process. Is there something that needs to be done with the URLs somewhere? This list site is an example of how I'd like it to work: https://mailing-lists.imperial.ac.uk/ Here is what I added to settings.py: #---------------------------------------- INSTALLED_APPS= ['hyperkitty', 'postorius', 'django_mailman3', 'django.contrib.admin', 'django.contrib.auth', 'django.contrib.contenttypes', 'django.contrib.sessions', 'django.contrib.sites', 'django.contrib.messages', 'django.contrib.staticfiles', 'django.contrib.humanize', 'rest_framework', 'django_gravatar', 'compressor', 'haystack', 'django_extensions', 'django_q', 'allauth', 'allauth.account', 'allauth.mfa', 'allauth.socialaccount'] # Specifies the adapter class to use, allowing you to alter certain default behaviour. MFA_ADAPTER = "allauth.mfa.adapter.DefaultMFAAdapter" # Used to override forms. Defaults to: MFA_FORMS = { 'authenticate': 'allauth.mfa.forms.AuthenticateForm', 'reauthenticate': 'allauth.mfa.forms.AuthenticateForm', 'activate_totp': 'allauth.mfa.forms.ActivateTOTPForm', 'deactivate_totp': 'allauth.mfa.forms.DeactivateTOTPForm', } MFA_RECOVERY_CODE_COUNT = 10 MFA_TOTP_PERIOD = 30 MFA_TOTP_DIGITS = 6 #---------------------------------------- Thanks.

Disable automatic bouncing globally?
by jkoral＠luc.edu Oct. 28, 2025

Oct. 28, 2025

Is there a way to disabled the automatic bouncing globally on all lists or do I have to do that on each individual list?
