very few moderation capabilities for moderators
by Guillermo Hernandez (Oldno7) 19 Sep '21

19 Sep '21

Hi all: I need to provide the list moderators a way to change the moderation flag for users from whichever it is (normally "list default processing") to "hold for moderation" and viceversa (to "list default" or to "accept") I understand that it could be done via console script (That's the way I did on mailman2: I made two commands using "withlist", one to hold, moderar.py, and other one to accept, desmoderar.py. I show you below) But I think I'm not the only one that could use as an improvement a way to do this on postorius/web. Before to trying implementing them on mailman3, I beg you to tell me if they could do that on mailman3. Thanks in advance. ****************** (moderar.py) #! /usr/local/bin/python # # script via withlist para moderar a pelo # """moderar un miembro. Save as bin/moderar.py Run via bin/withlist -r moderar <listname> <member> """ from Mailman import mm_cfg def moderar(mlist, member): if not mlist.Locked(): mlist.Lock() mlist.setMemberOption(member, mm_cfg.Moderate, True) mlist.Save() mlist.Unlock() ****************** (desmoderar.py) #! /usr/local/bin/python # # script via withlist para desmoderar un miembro # """desmoderar un miembro.

mm3mod: command line moderation tool
by David Bremner 18 Sep '21

18 Sep '21

Because we're not running postorius, and the moderate-by-mail change is not available in the older version of mailman3 we're running, I needed a tool to moderate lists from the command line. I found mailman-tools, but wasn't able to get them working with python3, so I started from scratch. Maybe someone else will find it useful https://git.tethera.net/mm3mod.git/about/ It's a work in progress, but I am running the version from that repo in production. Like any program using the REST interface, in principle this has complete administrator access to your mailman site, so you need to to trust both this code and the users you let run it. I do run it in "kiosk mode" via ssh command="/home/listmod/.local/bin/mm3mod" ssh-rsa blahblah in .ssh/authorized_keys. This is more of a keeping-honest-people-honest kind of thing.

Controlling Mailman3 from the Linux commandline
by Allan Hansen 18 Sep '21

18 Sep '21

All, Not versed in Python, I found using the Python gateway to Mailman3 commands rather cumbersome for the few and very simple interactions I have with the shell. So I implemented a set of .bash scripts that I use instead. They all have this from, where the last part is the Mailman shell command (in this case the command for adding members in file $1 to the list $2). #!/bin/bash exec /opt/mailman/mm/venv/bin/mailman -C "/opt/mailman/mm/mailman.cfg" members --addmembers $1 $2 To invoke it: . addMembers.bash <FILE_OF_EMAIL> <listname> I have other scripts for commands such as: List all lists List all members on all lists (with a sort -u) Send an email with a given list's members to a given address Delete members from a list Delete members from all lists Help Count members on a list Note the one that sends the member list to a given email address. It does this: #!/bin/bash exec /opt/mailman/mm/venv/bin/mailman -C "/opt/mailman/mm/mailman.cfg" members $2 |grep -v -e "has no members"|sed -e 's/.*/\L&/'|mailx --subject=$2 $1 This one I use a lot because the system has a bug that does not allow moderators to see the list of members on the list they are supposed to moderate. My lists are set up to allow this, but it does not work. The moderators send me an email with the request, I log on and run this script. I hope this is helpful. Yours, Allan

Docker mailman3 delete social logins, did something change?
by bob B 17 Sep '21

17 Sep '21

I want to remove the social logins from mailman3 in docker. I found this info https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/thread/… but the link to the default shows *************** INSTALLED_APPS = [] DEFAULT_APPS = [ 'hyperkitty', 'postorius', 'django_mailman3', # Uncomment the next line to enable the admin: 'django.contrib.admin', # Uncomment the next line to enable admin documentation: # 'django.contrib.admindocs', 'django.contrib.auth', 'django.contrib.contenttypes', 'django.contrib.sessions', 'django.contrib.sites', 'django.contrib.messages', 'django.contrib.staticfiles', 'rest_framework', 'django_gravatar', 'compressor', 'haystack', 'django_extensions', 'django_q', 'allauth', 'allauth.account', 'allauth.socialaccount', ] ***************** However when I go to the bug https://github.com/maxking/docker-mailman/issues/283 it shows ********* INSTALLED_APPS = ( 'hyperkitty', 'postorius', 'django_mailman3', # Uncomment the next line to enable the admin: 'django.contrib.admin', # Uncomment the next line to enable admin documentation: # 'django.contrib.admindocs', 'django.contrib.auth', 'django.contrib.contenttypes', 'django.contrib.sessions', 'django.contrib.sites', 'django.contrib.messages', 'django.contrib.staticfiles', 'rest_framework', 'django_gravatar', 'paintstore', 'compressor', 'haystack', 'django_extensions', 'django_q', 'allauth', 'allauth.account', 'allauth.socialaccount', 'django_mailman3.lib.auth.fedora', 'allauth.socialaccount.providers.openid', 'allauth.socialaccount.providers.github', 'allauth.socialaccount.providers.gitlab', 'allauth.socialaccount.providers.google', ) ******** The two examples are different so what should it be? I tried to add it in both ways and when I do I get bad gateway and he mailman website is broke. I have not setup any domains yet, just setup the admin password,.

How to import mailman2 into mailman3 in Docker, getting error with archives.
by bob B 17 Sep '21

17 Sep '21

I know you can't run mailman commands in the docker images and I have to copy the data to an area where he docker images can access it, but in looking that the commands I got the list settings to import docker exec -it mailman-core mailman import21 [REDACTED](a)REDACTED].REDACTED].org /opt/mailman/migration/config.pck *** this worked But having issues importing the archives? do i run this on mailman-core OR mailman-web? I tried both but it does not like python? docker exec -it mailman-core python manage.py hyperkitty_import -l [REDACTED](a)REDACTED].REDACTED].org /opt/mailman/migration/[REDACTED].mbox OCI runtime exec failed: exec failed: container_linux.go:380: starting container process caused: exec: "python": executable file not found in $PATH: unknown

Thank you for your reply earlier regarding "creating the mailman.cfg permissions".

Running mailman shell commands in a script
by Eggert Ehmke 16 Sep '21

16 Sep '21

Hello, I understand that the mailman shell is basically interactive. I need to run some actions as adding and deleting users in a Linux shell script, or even from another python program. How does that work? In fact, I miss the commands that were in the bin directory of the old mailman2 installation. Wouldn't it be nice to add them again to mailman3? Cheers, Eggert

Blocking email addresses
by Eggert Ehmke 16 Sep '21

In mailman2 there was an option to put the email of rejected posts into the block list. The block list is still there in mailman3, but I have to insert the address manually. Are there any plans to activate this feature again?

Does anyone have a working DKIM/ARC configuration?
by Philip Colmer 16 Sep '21

16 Sep '21

I've configured a Mailman 3 server with Postfix and added OpenDKIM to the latter to provide the DKIM headers, and configured Mailman to provide the ARC headers. However, in sending test messages to a mailbox hosted by Microsoft, I'm seeing a header like this: ARC-Authentication-Results: i=2; mx.microsoft.com 1; spf=pass (sender ip is 1.2.3.4) smtp.rcpttodomain=destination.org smtp.mailfrom=mmserver.org; dmarc=bestguesspass action=none header.from=mmserver.org; dkim=test (signature was verified) header.d=mmserver.org; dkim=fail (signature did not verify) header.d=sender.org; arc=fail (47) (I've changed the domains and IP address) Manually sending an email from the server to the same external email address does give me an email with a valid DKIM header: Authentication-Results: spf=pass (sender IP is 1.2.3.4) smtp.mailfrom=mmserver.org; destination.org; dkim=test (signature was verified) header.d=mmserver.org;destination.org; dmarc=bestguesspass action=none header.from=mmserver.org;compauth=pass reason=109 So I'm unclear as to where the problem may lie ... Hence the question: does anyone have Mailman 3 + Postfix working successfully with DKIM and ARC? Thanks. Philip

Are the gitlab repositories kept in sync?
by Brett Delmage 13 Sep '21

13 Sep '21

See https://gitlab.com/search?search=mailman&group_id=&project_id=&snippets=fal… I see that core is update frequently but other packages such as Mailman web have not been. mailman-suite is two weeks old. Mailman Web has not been updated for wo weeks. Does that mean I can download that Postorius and it will work with the latest mailman core updated in the past day? I expect that most changes don't break interfaces. Is that correct? Brett
