Two Questions: One General, the Other Specific
by David Wilson 26 Feb '21

26 Feb '21

Salutations; For context, I have been lurking on this site for a number of years now, in order to track the progress of this wonderful mailman3 project. Further context, I am chair of a 66 unit condominium and pay for two lists provided by EMWD.com and get a hands on feel from an mailman3 operations perspective. *Is there another site that might best communicate the future goals, plans, objectives, and time frames for mailman3 or is the status of the project at the state of being primarily reacting to problems, as evidenced in this problem solving forum, at least as it seems to me, with no offense meant or intended?* Something I find surprising is a problem described in an image grab below relating to an inability to amend a list entry to include a name to be associated with an email address, as if the data needs to be immutable. When a workaround was unsuccessfully explored to delete the entry and then resubmit an amended entry but with the same already deleted email address, that was still refused, presumably because of pointers to archived data don't permit, but this seems like a particularly onerous restriction, or perhaps even a bug, or at least a severe design constraint. *Is this item on an existing to do list?* *Comments please?* Thank you in advance for any responses to the questions in bold to facilitate faster reading, etc. Best regards.

missing links in admin request mail Fwd: New subscription request to Mm3-test-mem from hstahl@uw.edu
by Stephen Willey Mats Mats 25 Feb '21

25 Feb '21

Mailman2 and other mailman3 installs I’ve seen included links in the moderation ‘requires approval’ or list subscription request approvals. But the messages from my mailman3 server does not have the links. What configuration am I missing? I’m running off the stable 0.3 docker images as updated this morning to the current releases (3.3.3, 1.3.4, 1.3.4) thanks, steve > From: list2-owner(a)mm3.xxx.s.uw.edu > Subject: list2(a)mm3.xxx.s.uw.edu post from xxx(a)jhmi.edu requires approval > Date: February 25, 2021 at 2:18:14 PM PST > To: list2-owner(a)mm3.xxx.s.uw.edu > > As list administrator, your authorization is requested for the > following mailing list posting: > > List: list2(a)mm3.xxx.s.uw.edu > From: xxx(a)jhmi.edu > Subject: this is a post that should be moderated > > The message is being held because: > > The message is not from a list member > > At your convenience, visit your dashboard to approve or deny the > request. > Begin forwarded message: > > From: mm3-test-mem-owner(a)mm3.xxx.s.uw.edu > Subject: New subscription request to Mm3-test-mem from xxx(a)uw.edu > Date: February 25, 2021 at 12:49:05 PM PST > To: mm3-test-mem-owner(a)mm3.xxx.s.uw.edu > > Your authorization is required for a mailing list subscription request > approval: > > For: xxx(a)uw.edu > List: mm3-test-mem(a)mm3.xxx.s.uw.edu

docker-mailman Release Schedule
by matthew＠alberti.us 25 Feb '21

Hi, Is there an estimated date that a new docker-mailman release will be issued? I think .3.10 is still the latest, which doesn't include the latest releases of core, web, etc. Thanks.

Correcting name spellings in a list
by Morris Jones 24 Feb '21

24 Feb '21

I typo'd some full names in a mailing list. I want to correct them ... I can't see a way to do that in the Member Options, so I thought I'd try "remove" and re-add, either from the command line or the UI. But the name gets readded with the typo intact. :( Is there a way to fix it without writing SQL?

Best guide for installing from pypi
by duane＠fairsay.com 24 Feb '21

24 Feb '21

Hi. I've got a partial mailman3 install done and, based on the documentation, am not sure how to complete it! (this is my first time) I've installed mailman3 (3.3.3) on a Debian 10 server using python3.7, mysql, postfix, apache, etc. and have run the install using pip3 install mailman. The "mailman info" command works, version shows "3.3.3 (Tom Sawyer)" the databases creates, tables, all exist, etc. So it seems the necessary services are running. I'm running froxlor on the server to configure the non-mailman services (apache, ssl, postfix, etc). I had also tried apt install mailman-full but it was an older version, so using the pypi route ensured I was on the latest version. Looking at https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html, what I can't figure out is: 1) There is no /opt/mailman/ user - the user installed seems to be "list" 2) Is a virtual environment needed for a production environment? 3) if django is setup properly or the webservice is working 4) I've tried to connect to some web interface (posterious/hyperkitty/some mailman3 web frontend) via lynx to localhost:8001 on the local machine - but it has a 404 error Anyone got any tips as to next steps? (I'm also happy to pay someone to coach me through it!) Cheers, Duane

Help with troubleshooting mailman3 DNS lookups
by Simon Handfield 24 Feb '21

24 Feb '21

Dear users, hoping someone can point me in the right direction. Since we set up mailman3 on Ubuntu last year we have migrated to new DNS servers. The Ubuntu host's systemd-resolved service is correctly using the new DNS servers for lookups and postfix is honouring the change as well. However when messages are sent to mailman3 lists we're still seeing hits on the old DNS servers. I have tried to find a config that references the old servers but have not been able to find one. Can anyone provide a tip on where to look next or if there is something that mailman3 requires to recognise the change? Thanks, Simon. _ [State Library of NSW]<https://www.sl.nsw.gov.au/> Simon Handfield Desktop and Infrastructure Leader simon.handfield(a)sl.nsw.gov.au<mailto:simon.handfield@sl.nsw.gov.au> +61 2 9273 1535 Macquarie Street, Sydney NSW 2000, Australia www.sl.nsw.gov.au<https://www.sl.nsw.gov.au/> This message is intended for the addressee named and may contain confidential information.

Bounce Problems
by M4tze 23 Feb '21

23 Feb '21

Dear List, I experience some strange effects regarding the bounce handling. The lists are configured with a bounce_info_stale_after = 7d and bounce_score_threshold = 5. (full config dump here: https://pastebin.com/42uTkdTJ) It just happend, that a user has been disabled but should not when regarding the config. The bounce log for the user looks like this: (see here: https://pastebin.com/bWRPa88H) If I understand the settings correctly, bounce_info_stale_after = 7d means that any bounce received > 7d ago are not counted (which would be intuitive). It seems, that there must be a 7d gap between the last bounce received and a new bounce to get the score reset to 1. Is my interpretation right? Is this intentional? Can this be changed? Kind regards - M4tze

If one inadvertently deleted a list owner account, how could one either create a new account and make them a list owner -or- make an existing account a list owner? Thanks!

A new issue with installation
by Brian Carpenter 20 Feb '21

20 Feb '21

As usual, a new issue has arisen with installing Mailman 3. It seems Postorius and Hyperkitty want to install a module called cryptography. Which I am unable to install because of this: error: Can not find Rust compiler Question 1: Is cryptography a new addition to Hyperkitty/Postorius? Or was cryptography always included and something else is different about my installation process? "Building wheels for collected packages: hyperkitty, django-haystack, django-mailman3, mailmanclient, robot-detection, rcssmin, django-allauth, cryptography" Question 2: Will Hyperkitty/Postorius work without cryptography? I haven't proceed with this installation once I received the above error. Question 3: Are there any Mailman 3/Postorius/HK documentation that addresses with the installation of cryptography? -- Brian Carpenter Harmonylists.com Emwd.com
