Hello, everyone! This is my first post after just joining this discussion, so please forgive me and provide kind assistance if I have posted in the wrong subsection! I am new here but a real enthusiast and loving this community so far. I have a background in teaching coding and education, and I feel I could help with documentation, at least for starters. As a new member of this forum, I wish to share and gain some knowledge. I am looking forward to creating my own discussions to resolve my queries and gain more insights. I have participated in various discussions, which have definitely helped me a lot. Also, what factors should be considered when choosing the appropriate category for a post? Thank you in advance.

trying to understand ARC
by Johannes Rohr 18 Aug '24

18 Aug '24

Dear all, I'm confused about how to enable ARC signing and how it is related to DKIM. As it stands, the contents of the section [ARC] in mailmain.cfg are [ARC] enabled: yes authserv_id: *******.org # Should this be the address of the mailserver (postfix) instead? privkey: /etc/mailman3/***.org.mailman.key # Shouldn't this point to the same private key used by rspamd for DKIM signing? selector: mailman # shouldn't this point to the same selector as rspam, or should it be separate? If so, should I also set up a separate TXT entry domain: ****.org # mailman serves multiple domains. Should all be there? Should the exact subdomain be there? Finally, how come that at present, mailman does NOT sign the messages? They come with the original DKIM signature, but there is no ARC signature. Unfortunately, the official documentation says very little about ARC, so I have to post my possibly stupid questions here. Johannes

Legit login attempts yield, "An error occurred while processing your request."
by Greg Newby 14 Aug '24

14 Aug '24

Hi friends. Following up on my message over the weekend about getting web (Django) logins for users who were ported from MM2 to MM3, I now have some people trying to create a new username. Something broke following a system update and reboot. MM3 is installed using the venv method, and the services (mailman and mailman-web) seem to be running ok. Mailing list delivery is happening as usual. I've now come upon a few related situations where a 500 error results, "Server error. An error occurred while processing your request." My primary question is: *How can I find out what's causing this*? I've looked in all the MM and web logfiles, by "tail -f" while generating the error, and nothing is logged there. Apache logs shows something like this: x.x.y.y- - [13/Aug/2024:21:46:41 -0700] "POST /accounts/password/reset/ HTTP/1.1" 500 1448 "https://lists.pglaf.org/accounts/password/reset/" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/127.0.0.0 Safari/537.36 Edg/127.0.0.0" I've come across this error while trying to do authentication-related activities that worked before the reboot: - "Forgot password" (happens whether or not the entered email existed in MM2 or already exists in MM3) - Sign up (ditto) - Email unsubscribes gave a verification email, but then didn't unsubscribe the address (might not be the same problem) Thanks for any breadcrumbs that might guide me to the solution. ~ Greg

Several Postorius errors over the weekend
by Andrew Hodgson 14 Aug '24

14 Aug '24

Hi. I've had several Postorius error messages which have resulted in an email. Is this someone up to mischief or have I missed a configuration somewhere? We had several of these over a short period and nothing since then which makes me think someone was running a script on the endpoint, but would be interested in confirmation from those that know better. Thanks. Andrew.

Setting archive_policy "private" using REST changes web UI setting Archive policy, but does not hide archive until UI Save
by Henrik Rasmussen 14 Aug '24

14 Aug '24

I am working on disabling a list removing all members using REST and then setting archive_policy to "private" also using REST. This changes the UI Archive policy setting to Private archives as I would expect, but I just discovered that the (now previous) member, still logged in, and alså public (not logged in), still have access to the archive. It is not browser cache. At the moment I click Save in the UI settings/archiving, both logged in user and not logged in user (other browser) changed to "This mailing list is private. You must be subscribed to view the archives." on page reload. It seems that i need to click Save on every list having been changed, before the archive is hidden. Is that a bug? I am currently using Postorius Version 1.3.5 and HyperKitty version 1.3.4. /Henrik

RDS CA changes
by Hirayama, Pat 12 Aug '24

12 Aug '24

Hello, So, my Mailman3 installation (inherited – guy who set it up has left) is using PostgreSQL that is an AWS RDS instance. I have received an alert from AWS that the CA certificate used to create the database is expiring, and they want me to update the certificate before it expires: "Update Your Amazon RDS and Amazon Aurora SSL/TLS Certificates by August 22, 2024 " https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/rotate-your-ssl-tls-certificates-now-amazo… Our DBA team is requesting that we update applications by installing the new CA within the application's certificate store. As near as I can tell from reading the Mailman 3 docs, and looking at my mailman.cfg and settings_local.py ... I don't know that Mailman 3 is using certificate verification for the PostgreSQL connection. At least, I can't see anything in those configuration files that suggest this. Does anyone know if this is the case – or which configuration file I should look at to verify? Will my Mailman 3 be ok if the DBAs go ahead and update the certificates on their end?

Removing all moderatortors (and owners) from a list in one go
by Henrik Rasmussen 12 Aug '24

12 Aug '24

As there doesn't seem to be a "Disable list" REST call (not an "export list" REST call, I am trying to remove all members, moderators and owners, changing list description etc. I managed to remove all members from a list in one go using https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailman/en/latest/src/mailman/rest/docs/…, but the same command, using /roster/moderator does not apply for moderators (now owners I guess). To me it seems that each moderator has to be removed one by one, either: * using REST https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailmanclient/en/latest/src/mailmanclien… * or using the client https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/thread/… * or using Python https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/thread/… Isn't there an easier way? And why not like https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailman/en/latest/src/mailman/rest/docs/… ? /Henrik

User cannot reset password
by Greg Newby 11 Aug '24

11 Aug '24

I imported MM2.1 lists to Mailman3 (using import21 - details are in my previous messages to mailman-users), and have had a couple of reports of people for whom the password reset function via "Forgot password" on the list login screen doesn't work as expected. This is a venv installation using PostgreSQL as the database: $ mailman info GNU Mailman 3.3.9 (Tom Sawyer) Python 3.12.3 (main, Jul 31 2024, 17:43:48) [GCC 13.2.0] config file: /etc/mailman3/mailman.cfg db url: postgresql://mailman:redacated@localhost/mailman devmode: DISABLED REST root url: http://localhost:8001/3.1/ REST credentials: restadmin:redacted The user selects "Forgot password" and enters their email - which I've confirmed is subscribed and receiving messages. They get this email: You are receiving this email because you, or someone else, tried to access an account with email redactaed(a)gmail.com. However, we do not have any record of such an account in our database. This mail can be safely ignored if you did not initiate this action. If it was you, you can sign up for an account using the link below. I looked in the PostgreSQL address table and confirmed the entry is there, and also of course looked at the Members list in the web-based front end. Everything looks ok. I suspect that lots of people will have the same problem, but have not yet tried to login & reset their password. The earlier reports indicated that people's saved passwords did not work, but I haven't replicated that. Any advice on what's going on and how to address it? I've migrated over 200 lists with thousands of users, so would rather not need to deal with every user via the web-based front end. But at this point I don't even know what to try to fix things. With the previous reports I unsubscribed the user and had them resubscribe - that worked as expected but required back-and-forth discussion and, more importantly, user inconvenience. Thanks, Greg Newby

Python program to create lists and import settings from Mailman 2 to Mailman 3
by Greg Newby 10 Aug '24

10 Aug '24

Hi friends. A couple of weeks ago I asked for help with calling Mailman functions from within a Python program. This was to avoid using the web interface or shell commands to create a new list from a legacy Mailman 2.x list, and instead do it from within a Python program. Here is the program I ended up using, and I thought it would be worthwhile to get into the Mailman users list archives for future folks. Note that this is for the (recommended) venv installation of Mailman. Some things might be different for other installations. I'll paste the program and also attach it: #!/opt/mailman/venv/bin/python3 # Note: The line above should be the Python3 interpreter for your # installed version of Mailman3. It's the same as the first line in # your 'mailman' command, which might be named manage.py or something # else in your environment. # The venv version of Mailman used to develop this program is: # GNU Mailman 3.3.9 (Tom Sawyer) # Python 3.12.3 (main, Apr 10 2024, 05:33:47) [GCC 13.2.0] # About: # The multiple steps of creating a Mailman 3 list based on a legacy # Mailman 2.1 list. # gbn July 28 2024. This little program is granted to the public domain. ######################################################################## # Adjust these variables for your list, domain, MM2 and MM3 locations: lists_to_import = [ # listname, domainname ('testlist','example.org'), ('testlist2','example.org') # Add more lists as needed ] ######################################################################## # Load prerequisite functionality: from mailman.config import config # Needed for transaction.commit from mailman.core.initialize import initialize # For initialize() from mailman.app.lifecycle import create_list # For create_list import pickle # Pickle file handling from contextlib import ExitStack # Pickle file handling from mailman.commands.cli_import import _Mailman, _Bouncer # "" from mailman.utilities.modules import hacked_sys_modules # "" import subprocess # Subprocess for import21 ######################################################################## # Step 0: Initialize the environment: # Without arguments, initialize() looks in the standard locations for your .cfg def do_init(): initialize() # Alternative: Load an explicit configuration file, such as: # initialize('/etc/mailman3/mailman.cfg') ######################################################################## # Step 1: Create the list # Note: This fails silently if the list already exists or something goes wrong def do_create(new_list): try: # The list might exist or otherwise not be creatable l = create_list(new_list) except: # I did not find useful return values from create_list to diagnose print('create_list('+new_list+') failed. Trying to proceed anyway') # This saves your new list: transaction = config.db transaction.commit() ######################################################################## # Step 2: Rewrite the pickle file from the legacy list. def do_pickle(old_pickle_file, new_pickle_file): # These definitions are so the old pickle file can be parsed: with ExitStack() as resources: resources.enter_context(hacked_sys_modules('Mailman', _Mailman)) resources.enter_context( hacked_sys_modules('Mailman.Bouncer', _Bouncer)) # Input the old pickle file from MM 2.1 with open(old_pickle_file, 'rb') as fp: data = pickle.load(fp) # ban_list was a problematic value from my MM2.1 lists: # print(data['ban_list']) data['ban_list'] = [] # Any other settings you want to change?

We're not doing that here because it takes awhile # (depending on the size of the archive). Use a command from the bash # shell such as: # mailman-web hyperkitty_import --since=1971-01-01 -l listname@domainnamed /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/listname.mbox/listname.mbox # followed by: # mailman-web update_index_one_list listname@domainname ___________________________________________ Mailman's content filtering has removed the following MIME parts from this message.

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?
