Looking for large sites that have migrated to mailman3

Hi. We're looking for information on large sites that have migrated to mailman3. Preferably academic institutions. As we start to look at a migration project we're hoping to hear any 'lessons learned' from those who have gone before us. (Sorry if this information is already posted somewhere, I wasn't able to find it) Thanks, Steve Mats Mats Software Engineer Academic & Collaborative Applications - UW-IT University of Washington Seattle, Washington

List nonmembers
by Andrew Bernard 09 Jul '19

09 Jul '19

Under Users for a list, there is a category for List nonmembers. What does this term mean? [It's rather curious philosophically when you think about it, because I would have thought that the category [all humans - list members] fits that category term.] But seriously, I don't understand it. I have several email addresses there and I don't know what do with them, if anything. Andrew

delete examples.com site

Hello, I've been working on setting up Mailman3 on a RHEL 7.5 vm using the guides and documentation found here: http://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/index.html https://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/README.html http://docs.mailman3.org/projects/postorius/en/latest/index.html http://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailmanclient/en/latest/README.html https://hyperkitty.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman-hyperkitty nginx is serving the Django applications via uwsgi. I was able to get mailman, postorius + hyperkitty, running and test sending out email verifications. In an attempt to set the default domain to something other than example.com I deleted the site: example.com, I did have another site. Unfortunately, this seems to have broken the Django applications. At the moment I am preparing to delete the virtual environment and set things up again. Unless there is something that can be done in the current virtual environment to "reset" things back to start. I was also running into an issue where the verification emails were successfully sent out. The url to verify the email looks like this: http://my.domain.com:8000/accounts/confirm-email/xxxxxxxxxxxx/ Replacing my.domain.com with the domain I added. How can I get the outgoing verification emails to not reference port 8000? If I take that same link and remove the port, I get the desired page. Port 8000 is blocked at our sites permitter firewall, I don't necessarily want to open it. I'd rather the URL just obfuscate the port and send it to https... Thank you in advance for your attention and assistance. Best regards, Enrique J. Terrazas

HTML post only showing as attachment

I have a post come in that is in HTML and has an image attached. It is distributed fine to email subscribers. Hyperkitty shows a blank message, with the in an html attachment, and the image as a jpg attachment. Why doesn't the text show in Hyperkitty? So far, all other messages display correctly. Andrew

Rich Text support in Hyperkitty
by Abhilash Raj 08 Jul '19

08 Jul '19

Hi All, I have been recently working on adding rich text support through markdown in Hyperkitty so that emails can be made easier to read. The core design idea in my mind when working on this was building something that doesn't bother writers of plain text emails too much, but allows people to write emails in markdown. The supported syntax is limited Markdown, for example: Hyperkitty's Markdown Syntax ============================ - List items are supported - Even nested ones - Headers with `#` aren't supported, mostly due to their widespread use as comments in code shared on mailing lists. - You can **emphasize** text and _itcalize_ them too - Block code and `inline code` works. - URLs work like they usually do. - Images _do work_, but are disabled by default because of their potential for tracking users. They need to be enabled by administrators through a configuration flag. ``` def sample(): return "yay" ``` While text intentionally written for Markdown rending looks pretty good, plain text sometimes isn't as good. I have applied my branch[1] on both the Mailman installations for these two lists (mail.python.org & lists.mailman3.org). Any feedback or bug reports on weird looking stuff is welcome here or directly [on my PR][1] [1]: https://gitlab.com/mailman/hyperkitty/merge_requests/160 -- thanks, Abhilash Raj (maxking)

Odd hold message
by Andrew Bernard 08 Jul '19

08 Jul '19

I received a very simple post today that was held with the following reason: The message is being held because: Message contains administrivia At your convenience, visit your dashboard to approve or deny the request. What is this all about? What does Mailman consider to be administrivia, of all things, and why is this a reason to hold a message? The only thing in the message I can see is that it mentioned '100 members'. Is Mailman becoming sentient and developing an attitude? Seriously, I'd like to know more about this. Andrew

Images and rich content in hyperkitty
by andrew.bernard＠gmail.com 07 Jul '19

07 Jul '19

I see discussion about this topic here in July. My immediate interest is that I had hoped to move from an antique plain-text only list to modern list software that will support content such as inline images (partly to staunch the flow of subscribers to facebook, simply to be able to post pictures.) Does hyperkitty support this, and where can one read about that? Andrew

Post confirmation
by andrew.bernard＠gmail.com 07 Jul '19

07 Jul '19

Some mailing lists have an intermediary step where when the user posts, an email is received frm the server asking them to confirm posting, or discard it. Some of my users feel this gives them the chance to not post something they may have composed in error, or regret, or changed their mind about something. Is it possible to configure this behaviour (I think from Listserv) in Mailman? Andrew
