Mailman3 via Docker and NGINX
by brian＠emwd.com Dec. 19, 2018

Dec. 19, 2018

I have Mailman3 installed on CentOS 7 using maxking's docker image. I believe the installation went fine and running "curl http://172.19.199.3:8000/postorius/lists/" produces the correct output. I also will be using exim and nginx with this installation. It seems I am stuck with the nginx setup. I created a sitename.com.conf file in the /etc/nginx/conf.d folder. I have the following inputted there: server { listen 80; server_name `sitename.com`; location /static/ { alias /opt/mailman/web/static/; } location / { include uwsgi_params; uwsgi_pass 172.19.199.3:8000; uwsgi_read_timeout 300; proxy_set_header Host $host; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr; } } However when I go to http://sitename.com (obviously using an alias here for privacy reasons) I get the default nginx index page. Do I need to add anything to the main nginx.conf file to be able to see my mailman3 installation? Thank you for any assistance, Brian Carpenter

Templates
by David Krantz Dec. 19, 2018

Dec. 19, 2018

Hi. How do I set a template for one specific list? I want one list to have a special footer template. I have tried updating the database (template table) without effect so apparently the database is not used for templates or some kind of fallback is used to set it to the generic footer. Of course I also tried to restart mailman after that operation to try to rule out any caching-related problem. I want to use a file://-path as that is the least painful way of doing it. I also would like a solution to place a file in a special location. My current templates are in a .../var/templates/site/en/ structure with names like list:member:generic:footer.txt Cheers // David

Newbie Wants To Know About Multiple Lists
by Christopher Garwood Dec. 19, 2018

Dec. 19, 2018

Howdy, I am new to Mailman and there are so many things I would like to know. Before I try to find out how to install and configure the software, I need to know if, how and what is required for us to set up this software to deal with more than one email list. I am working with a plan to setup a CentOS VPS on which Mailman will be hosted. The objective is to host and administrate mailing list for the 3 entities that I am directly involved with. These lists must function completely unrelated to each other including the email addresses from which the emails & news letters are sent from. If this is possible can I be given information or a link to how it can be done and what is required?

copying a question already made here last year "I want to delete members automatically from a mailing list if the delivery has failed after a certain time of attempts because his mailbox has been removed or his mail server has been shutdown." at the time Mailman 3 was in version 3.1, today we are in 3.2. is this option available?

Hyperkitty archives - new list not archived
by vaarcilal＠eafit.edu.co Dec. 12, 2018

Dec. 12, 2018

Hi!! I'm running mailman 3.2 on Ubuntu server 18.04. Installed it via pip inside a conda virtual environment. I'm having problems related to hyperkitty on which I'd really appreciate some help. When I try to access the archives of a mailing list named 'test-nov' it redirects me to 'example.com/hyperkitty/list/test-nov@example.com/', where a 404 appears and a 'No archived mailing-list by that name.' message is thrown by hyperkitty.views.mlist.overview. I'm not very experienced with django, so I could have made a mistake on any configuration. I have not configured an MX for my mail server yet, so I'm able to send emails but I can't recieve emails for my lists. Is this somehow related to a misconfigurated MTA? Which logs should I take into account? Regards, Vincent.

Mailman3-Web lots of database queries
by Stefan Tatschner Dec. 10, 2018

Dec. 10, 2018

Hey! I recently set up a mailman3 instance and it works quite nice. I use the debian packages from buster. After running the thing for a few days, I realized an unexpected network load (my postgres database is on a separate machine). Turning the postgres log on revealed that mailman3 constantly queries the database: [...] 2018-11-17 16:33:15.417 UTC [8304] mailman3web@mailman3web LOG: statement: SELECT "django_q_ormq"."id", "django_q_ormq"."key", "django_q_ormq"."payload", "django_q_ormq"."lock" FROM "django_q_ormq" WHERE ("django_q_ormq"."key" = 'default' AND "django_q_ormq"."lock" < '2018-11-17T16:32:15.385901+00:00'::timestamptz) LIMIT 1 2018-11-17 16:33:15.663 UTC [8305] mailman3web@mailman3web LOG: statement: SELECT "django_q_ormq"."id", "django_q_ormq"."key", "django_q_ormq"."payload", "django_q_ormq"."lock" FROM "django_q_ormq" WHERE ("django_q_ormq"."key" = 'default' AND "django_q_ormq"."lock" < '2018-11-17T16:32:15.621505+00:00'::timestamptz) LIMIT 1 2018-11-17 16:33:15.664 UTC [8306] mailman3web@mailman3web LOG: statement: SELECT "django_q_ormq"."id", "django_q_ormq"."key", "django_q_ormq"."payload", "django_q_ormq"."lock" FROM "django_q_ormq" WHERE ("django_q_ormq"."key" = 'default' AND "django_q_ormq"."lock" < '2018-11-17T16:32:15.624011+00:00'::timestamptz) LIMIT 1 2018-11-17 16:33:15.908 UTC [8308] mailman3web@mailman3web LOG: statement: SELECT "django_q_ormq"."id", "django_q_ormq"."key", "django_q_ormq"."payload", "django_q_ormq"."lock" FROM "django_q_ormq" WHERE ("django_q_ormq"."key" = 'default' AND "django_q_ormq"."lock" < '2018-11-17T16:32:15.870547+00:00'::timestamptz) LIMIT 1 2018-11-17 16:33:15.910 UTC [8307] mailman3web@mailman3web LOG: statement: SELECT "django_q_ormq"."id", "django_q_ormq"."key", "django_q_ormq"."payload", "django_q_ormq"."lock" FROM "django_q_ormq" WHERE ("django_q_ormq"."key" = 'default' AND "django_q_ormq"."lock" < '2018-11-17T16:32:15.871611+00:00'::timestamptz) LIMIT 1 2018-11-17 16:33:16.152 UTC [8310] mailman3web@mailman3web LOG: statement: SELECT "django_q_ormq"."id", "django_q_ormq"."key", "django_q_ormq"."payload", "django_q_ormq"."lock" FROM "django_q_ormq" WHERE ("django_q_ormq"."key" = 'default' AND "django_q_ormq"."lock" < '2018-11-17T16:32:16.116762+00:00'::timestamptz) LIMIT 1 2018-11-17 16:33:16.154 UTC [8309] mailman3web@mailman3web LOG: statement: SELECT "django_q_ormq"."id", "django_q_ormq"."key", "django_q_ormq"."payload", "django_q_ormq"."lock" FROM "django_q_ormq" WHERE ("django_q_ormq"."key" = 'default' AND "django_q_ormq"."lock" < '2018-11-17T16:32:16.114878+00:00'::timestamptz) LIMIT 1 2018-11-17 16:33:16.390 UTC [8311] mailman3web@mailman3web LOG: statement: SELECT "django_q_ormq"."id", "django_q_ormq"."key", "django_q_ormq"."payload", "django_q_ormq"."lock" FROM "django_q_ormq" WHERE ("django_q_ormq"."key" = 'default' AND "django_q_ormq"."lock" < '2018-11-17T16:32:16.358211+00:00'::timestamptz) LIMIT 1 2018-11-17 16:33:16.393 UTC [8312] mailman3web@mailman3web LOG: statement: SELECT "django_q_ormq"."id", "django_q_ormq"."key", "django_q_ormq"."payload", "django_q_ormq"."lock" FROM "django_q_ormq" WHERE ("django_q_ormq"."key" = 'default' AND "django_q_ormq"."lock" < '2018-11-17T16:32:16.359704+00:00'::timestamptz) LIMIT 1 2018-11-17 16:33:16.634 UTC [8313] mailman3web@mailman3web LOG: statement: SELECT "django_q_ormq"."id", "django_q_ormq"."key", "django_q_ormq"."payload", "django_q_ormq"."lock" FROM "django_q_ormq" WHERE ("django_q_ormq"."key" = 'default' AND "django_q_ormq"."lock" < '2018-11-17T16:32:16.596602+00:00'::timestamptz) LIMIT 1 2018-11-17 16:33:16.636 UTC [8314] mailman3web@mailman3web LOG: statement: SELECT "django_q_ormq"."id", "django_q_ormq"."key", "django_q_ormq"."payload", "django_q_ormq"."lock" FROM "django_q_ormq" WHERE ("django_q_ormq"."key" = 'default' AND "django_q_ormq"."lock" < '2018-11-17T16:32:16.598296+00:00'::timestamptz) LIMIT 1 2018-11-17 16:33:16.882 UTC [8315] mailman3web@mailman3web LOG: statement: SELECT "django_q_ormq"."id", "django_q_ormq"."key", "django_q_ormq"."payload", "django_q_ormq"."lock" FROM "django_q_ormq" WHERE ("django_q_ormq"."key" = 'default' AND "django_q_ormq"."lock" < '2018-11-17T16:32:16.842795+00:00'::timestamptz) LIMIT 1 2018-11-17 16:33:16.884 UTC [8316] mailman3web@mailman3web LOG: statement: SELECT "django_q_ormq"."id", "django_q_ormq"."key", "django_q_ormq"."payload", "django_q_ormq"."lock" FROM "django_q_ormq" WHERE ("django_q_ormq"."key" = 'default' AND "django_q_ormq"."lock" < '2018-11-17T16:32:16.841916+00:00'::timestamptz) LIMIT 1 [...] Is this behaviour intended?

What is the difference between Mime Digest and Summary Digest in Mailman 3.2.0?
by Henrik Rasmussen Dec. 5, 2018

Dec. 5, 2018

Having tried both Outlook and Gmail, there doesn't seem to be any visible difference between Mime Digest and Summary Digest. Of cause Gmail shows both index and all posts inline while Outlook shows both index and all posts as attachments, but overall the two digest types doesn't seem different from each other. Is that corrent or did I miss something? /Henrik Rasmussen
