Disabling the footer on a mailing list: Is this how?
by David Partain 28 Mar '24

28 Mar '24

Hi, I regularly get requests from users to disable footers since they use email clients that simply show an attached text file. Yes, I know that's broken. I never got this working with my old broken installation. Since we're now running a shiny new version of mailman3, I thought I'd give it a go again. From what I've read, I thought the following would do the trick: # sudo -u mailman -s /usr/bin/bash $ source /local/mailman/venv/bin/activate $ cd ~/var/templates/ $ mkdir -p lists/test-list.our.domain/en/ $ cp /dev/null "lists/test-list.our.wee.domain/en/list:member:regular:footer" However, sending mail to test-list(a)our.wee.domain<mailto:test-list@our.wee.domain> still includes the footer. What am I missing? Do I need to restart something? Did I misunderstand what I've read? With kind regards, David

See list of subscribers
by Tom Yates 27 Mar '24

27 Mar '24

I'm sure I'm just doing something stupid, but I can't work out what. I have a list, as admin under "Settings" -> "List Identity" -> "Members List Visibility" I have it set to "Only Mailinglist Members". But a random subscriber, who's signed up and authenticated, when she visits the list page she sees her subscription, but no option to list the other subscribers. Is she looking in the wrong place? Do I need to open up more settings? Am I just being an idiot? Thanks for any light anyone can shed. -- Tom Yates - https://www.teaparty.net

Hyperkitty on Debian 12

Dear list members, when following the instructions to migrate list archives from Mailman21 to Mailman3 (see [1]), I face the following problem: # python3 manage.py hyperkitty_import -l mailman21-migration-test-04 /var/mailman21/testlist.mbox python3: can't open file '/var/mailman21/manage.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory and have no clue, where to find the right <manage.py> file.

Topics - Tags
by Mark 27 Mar '24

27 Mar '24

Hi, I'm reading the docs on "Message tagging" (https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailman/en/latest/src/mailman/handlers/d…) as saying shell access is needed to: (a) enable topics, and (b) write the keywords. In Mailman 2 there is an Admin web UI for "Topics". Is there such a web UI that can be enabled in Mailman 3 so that the list owners can create topics (tags) in their lists? Thanks.

Deleting messages from HyperKitty archive
by Mark 25 Mar '24

25 Mar '24

Hi, I'm running Mailman 3.3.9 with HyperKitty version 1.3.8 (venv installed as per the docs). As superuser (listmaster) I can "Delete message/thread" and "Delete archive". These options aren't there for the list owners. The docs (link below) say that in the newer HyperKitty version 1.3.9, list owners can delete messages/threads Is there a patch I can implement on HyperKitty version 1.3.8 (so list owners can delete messages), or is it possible to update HyperKitty to version 1.3.9 without bringing everything crashing down? *** https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/hyperkitty/en/latest/news.html 1.3.9 (2024-02-27) List owners can now delete messages and threads and reattach threads. (Fixes #261) *** Thanks, Mark

How to fix lists with characters errors?

But how can I fix this now? Note: apparently the list remains working just fine. It is just the command line failing. And perhaps some other side effect.

ValueError: The ADMINS setting must be a list of 2-tuples.

Greetings, We're trying to move from an ancient and bad Ubuntu-package based installation of mailman3 to a venv-based do-it-the-right-way installation. # mailman --version GNU Mailman 3.3.9 (Tom Sawyer) Things seem much better than past migration attempts.
