Finding a user to delete them
by Quanah Gibson-Mount 17 Mar '20

17 Mar '20

Due to a bug in mailman3, I have an incorrect user that's been created via github auth that has no confirmed email address yet. I've been poking around the user manager documentation (why is there no UI for user management???), and after adding in bits that are missing from the official documentation (<https://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/mailman/model/docs/usermanager…> is missing "from mailman.testing.documentation import dump_list" despite using dump_list repeatedly in its examples) I can't find the user. I have the confirmation email mailman3 sent out, that tells me the username mailman3 created for the incorrect account is "quanah98", but the user manager documentation doesn't detail how to find a user by their username, only their email. And apparently if the email hasn't been confirmed (and I *do not* want it confirmed), you can't find them by email. Suggestions on how to track down this user so I can delete them would be much appreciated.

Add old email address
by Quanah Gibson-Mount 14 Mar '20

14 Mar '20

We've recently migrated our project's email lists from mailman2 to mailman3. Given the project has been around for a few decades, many people have used different email addresesses over the years, some of which they no longer have access to. However, it would be useful to still be able to associate those emails with a given account. Is there a way that I can do this as an administrator of the mailman3 system?

Using REST api to subscribe member
by Brian Carpenter 11 Mar '20

11 Mar '20

I have a development server that only has Mailman core installed on it. I used a virtual environment to do the installation but I did not install Postorius or Hyperkitty as I am currently working on developing a custom u.i. for Mailman 3. My programmer said the following: "I have a problem with mailman on development server ... I was trying to add member to a list using REST api, but to no avail. After I tried all possible and impossible things, I finally looked at the logs. Error I found in log file is: IsADirectoryError: [Errno 21] Is a directory: '/opt/mailman/mm/venv/lib/python3.7/site-packages/mailman/templates' I guess mailman was looking for a template for welcome mail, and failed for some reason. I also guess this has something to do with locale or language settings I tried googling, but couldn't find anything" The log that gave the error was /opt/mailman/mm/logs/mailman.log My programmer tried it on another server that has both Postorius and Hyperkitty working and the api call worked, i.e. added the member to the list and sent out a welcome email. So what else do I need to install to be able to use the api to add members to a list using a non-postorius interface? Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks, Brian

How to configure a mailing list?

Greetings, I do have mailman 3 installed via virtualenv and it is up an running. Now I'd like to create a mailing list, but I can't find any instructions how I should do this. Is there a resource online I missed? If not, can anyone on this list tell me how to do it preferrably using a command line tool?

Help on removing moderators
by sean_sullivan＠rhoworld.com 04 Mar '20

04 Mar '20

Hello Mailman-users. I was hoping someone more experienced than myself would be able to help me with an issue I am currently experiencing. I have created a function to add moderators which works great, but I have also been trying to remove moderators as another function, but I am running into some issues. When I use the mailman shell based upon the documentation, it works great: https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailmanclient/en/latest/src/mailmanclien… everything works as expected. However, if I try and bring that in as a function that can be used with mailman withlist, I am consistently getting errors, and being that I am not very experienced in python, it has me scratching my head to say the least. from mailmanclient import Client from mailman.interfaces.member import MemberRole, AlreadySubscribedError from mailman.testing.helpers import subscribe addresses = ['test1(a)example.com', 'test2(a)example.com', 'test3(a)example.com'] client = Client('http://localhost:8001/3.1', 'restadmin', 'restpass') def set_owners(mlist): for email_addr in addresses: try: member = subscribe(mlist, '', email=email_addr, role=MemberRole.owner ) print (member) except AlreadySubscribedError as err: print (err) def remove(mlist): my_list = client.get_list(mlist) # print(my_list.fqdn_listname) # for email_addr in addresses: # my_list.remove_owner(email_addr) The errors I am getting are: ./bin/mailman withlist -r set_owners.remove -l it-test-b(a)lists.rhoworld.com Traceback (most recent call last): File "./bin/mailman", line 8, in <module> sys.exit(main()) File "/opt/mailman3/lib/python3.6/site-packages/click/core.py", line 764, in __call__ return self.main(*args, **kwargs) File "/opt/mailman3/lib/python3.6/site-packages/click/core.py", line 717, in main rv = self.invoke(ctx) File "/opt/mailman3/lib/python3.6/site-packages/mailman/bin/mailman.py", line 68, in invoke return super().invoke(ctx) File "/opt/mailman3/lib/python3.6/site-packages/click/core.py", line 1137, in invoke return _process_result(sub_ctx.command.invoke(sub_ctx)) File "/opt/mailman3/lib/python3.6/site-packages/click/core.py", line 956, in invoke return ctx.invoke(self.callback, **ctx.params) File "/opt/mailman3/lib/python3.6/site-packages/click/core.py", line 555, in invoke return callback(*args, **kwargs) File "/opt/mailman3/lib/python3.6/site-packages/click/decorators.py", line 17, in new_func return f(get_current_context(), *args, **kwargs) File "/opt/mailman3/lib/python3.6/site-packages/mailman/commands/cli_withlist.py", line 293, in shell r = call_name(dotted_name, m, *run_args) File "/opt/mailman3/lib/python3.6/site-packages/mailman/utilities/modules.py", line 70, in call_name return named_callable(*args, **kws) File "/opt/mailman3/bin/set_owners.py", line 24, in remove my_list = client.get_list(mlist) File "/opt/mailman3/lib/python3.6/site-packages/mailmanclient/client.py", line 347, in get_list 'lists/{0}'.format(fqdn_listname)) File "/opt/mailman3/lib/python3.6/site-packages/mailmanclient/restbase/connection.py", line 112, in call error_msg, response, None) urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 404: 404 Not Found So, I am wondering, is it possible to do something like this or am I completely misunderstanding the documentation, and why do I get a 404 here, when in the shell everything works as expected. I know I must be missing something, but cannot for the life of me figure out what that is. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Sean

Mailman web Stopped working after upgrade
by David Krantz 03 Mar '20

03 Mar '20

Hi. I have a VERY strange behaviour. I upgraded mailman3 and mailman web this weekend. It works fine (apart from ARC which don't work correctly in my setup but that is ok). But tonight the web user interface stopped working and I have not been logged in since it worked last time so something very strange is going on. I get the dreadful error message about psycopg2._psycopg is missing although it is installed both in ubuntu and in pip in the venv I run mailman. Mailman core still works fine, it is just Django being flaky. I think that this might be due to some kind of python misfeature where compiled code behaves slightly differently to interpreted code, that might explain the delay in it working initially before breaking. I have no idea of how to solve this. I have tried to uninstall and reinstlall psycopg2 in different versions without any luck. Any ideas? Logs below. I get the following in the web server error log (removing the web things that frankly are not interesting): mod_wsgi (pid=4488): Target WSGI script 'MAILMANROOT/bin/mailman-web20200229.wsgi' cannot be loaded as Python module. mod_wsgi (pid=4488): Exception occurred processing WSGI script 'MAILMANROOT/bin/mailman-web20200229.wsgi'.
