Changing Mailman's "from" domain
by Roger Hislop (IS) 23 May '19

23 May '19

Hi guys -- I'm a little baffled here... I'd got my Mailman instance running, then went on leave, and then tried to use it. No dice. If I subscribed an address, no confirmation email would come through. Checked the Postfix log and see this: Roger Hislop (IS) Executive Head - IOT T +27 11 5751600 M+27 78 4595952 May 16 14:34:50 ip-172-31-23-250 postfix/smtp[5025]: 15B87A35FB: to=<iotic-za(a)reasondigital.co.za>, relay=email-smtp.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com[52.51.155.83]:587, delay=0.22, delays=0.01/0.02/0.1/0.1, dsn=5.0.0, status=bounced (host email-smtp.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com[52.51.155.83] said: 554 Message rejected: Email address is not verified. The following identities failed the check in region EU-WEST-1: test-list-request(a)iotcouncil.org.za, test-list-bounces(a)iotcouncil.org.za (in reply to end of DATA command)) I've verified the domain listman.iotcouncil.org.za, so it would seem the obvious solution is to change the domain the mails come from. It appeared that I just change the postfix config to specify domain list so: # INTERNET HOST AND DOMAIN NAMES # # The myhostname parameter specifies the internet hostname of this # mail system. The default is to use the fully-qualified domain name # from gethostname(). $myhostname is used as a default value for many # other configuration parameters. # myhostname = listman.iotcouncil.org.za <<< HERE #myhostname = virtual.domain.tld # The mydomain parameter specifies the local internet domain name. # The default is to use $myhostname minus the first component. # $mydomain is used as a default value for many other configuration # parameters. # mydomain = listman.iotcouncil.org.za <<< and HERE # SENDING MAIL # # The myorigin parameter specifies the domain that locally-posted # mail appears to come from. The default is to append $myhostname, # which is fine for small sites. If you run a domain with multiple # machines, you should (1) change this to $mydomain and (2) set up # a domain-wide alias database that aliases each user to # user(a)that.users.mailhost. # # For the sake of consistency between sender and recipient addresses, # myorigin also specifies the default domain name that is appended # to recipient addresses that have no @domain part. # myorigin = listman.iotcouncil.org.za <<< and HERE #myorigin = $mydomain But when I look in the log: May 16 15:13:05 ip-172-31-23-250 postfix/qmgr[5700]: D58F9A35FB: from=<test-list-bounces(a)iotcouncil.org.za>, size=1224, nrcpt=1 (queue active) May 16 15:13:05 ip-172-31-23-250 postfix/smtpd[5710]: disconnect from ip-172-19-199-2.eu-west-1.compute.internal[172.19.199.2] May 16 15:13:06 ip-172-31-23-250 postfix/smtp[5713]: D58F9A35FB: to=<iotic-za(a)reasondigital.co.za>, relay=email-smtp.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com[52.51.155.83]:587, delay=0.25, delays=0.01/0.03/0.1/0.12, dsn=5.0.0, status=bounced (host email-smtp.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com[52.51.155.83] said: 554 Message rejected: Email address is not verified. The following identities failed the check in region EU-WEST-1: test-list-request(a)iotcouncil.org.za, test-list-bounces(a)iotcouncil.org.za (in reply to end of DATA command)) But the "from" is not changing. I see that messages TO the mailman server are also not being delivered ("-- 5.1.1 Requested action not taken: mailbox unavailable"). So there's another problem. Should I just verify iotcouncil.org.za and add DKIM to its MX record? Seems like a fail...

Upgrade
by David Krantz 23 May '19

23 May '19

Hi all, I am running a relatively old version of mailman 3, namely 3.2.0a1 from late september 2017. This is installed using the old mailman-bundler method. I use postfix and postgres. I really have two questions: First: What is the normal way to upgrade such a setup? I guess that I just can get the updated versions of all packages through git, set up new venv's to simplify a rollback, back up the database and then just restarting with the new version hoping for the best. Second: Another way would be to set up a new virtual server and reinstall everything and then just switching IPs on the servers. Then: what is the preferred way to install mailman3 today, docker only? I will also have to move all config and data to the new server, this should be mainly about restoring a database backup and copying relevant config, is there anything I miss here? cheers // David

How to remove global ban using API?
by Nathan Dixon 22 May '19

22 May '19

I am using a global ban to stop anyone not in a list of valid domains from being able to subscribe to any of our lists. This ban needs to be maintained using the Mailman3 api as it is being fed from another source. I can create the ban fine by the following: from mailmanclient import Client client = Client(URI,apiuser,apipass) client.bans.add("^(?!.*[(a)\.](validdomain1\.com|validdomain2\.org|validdomain3\.co\.uk)") However, I cannot seem to be able to remove it using the api: >>> client.bans[0].delete() Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/home/wanout/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/mailmanclient/restbase/base.py", line 137, in delete self._connection.call(self._url, method='DELETE') File "/home/wanout/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/mailmanclient/restbase/connection.py", line 99, in call raise HTTPError(url, response.status, content, response, None) urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 404: b'' Or >>> client.bans.remove(str(client.bans[0])) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/home/wanout/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/mailmanclient/restobjects/ban.py", line 83, in remove ban.delete() File "/home/wanout/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/mailmanclient/restbase/base.py", line 137, in delete self._connection.call(self._url, method='DELETE') File "/home/wanout/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/mailmanclient/restbase/connection.py", line 99, in call raise HTTPError(url, response.status, content, response, None) urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 404: b'' Or >>> client.bans.remove("^(?!.*[(a)\.](validdomain1\.com|validdomain2\.org|validdomain3\.co\.uk))") Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/home/wanout/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/mailmanclient/restobjects/ban.py", line 83, in remove ban.delete() File "/home/wanout/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/mailmanclient/restbase/base.py", line 137, in delete self._connection.call(self._url, method='DELETE') File "/home/wanout/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/mailmanclient/restbase/connection.py", line 99, in call raise HTTPError(url, response.status, content, response, None) urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 404: b'' And also, when I now try and go into the mailman-core docker image to use the mailman.interfaces.bans, it will not let me see the global bans: >>> from mailman.interfaces.bans import IBanManager >>> global_bans = IBanManager(None) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: ('Could not adapt', None, <InterfaceClass mailman.interfaces.bans.IBanManager>) I have opened an issue in Gitlab for this as I feel it may be a bug related to regex and global bans (there was a similar one for list banned addresses): https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/issues/598 Many thanks for your time, -- *Nathan Dixon* MEng Senior Software Architect m: +44 (0)7402 690311 t: +44 (0)20 81231252 e: nathan.dixon(a)evadon.com w: www.evadon.com This e-mail and any attachments are confidential and may be protected by legal, professional or other privilege.

installation choices for mm3
by John Griessen 17 May '19

17 May '19

I've been reading https://wiki.list.org/DOC/Mailman%203%20installation%20experience and see that a virtual is recommended, which is not something I have done yet, and wonder if just putting the mm3 on a different server is easier? I have a server, mail1.cibolo.us that has postfix, postgresql, dovecot, mm2, nsd on it. Another server has just web pages and nsd doing backup DNS for mail1.cibolo.us DNS server. I could do a straight debian install of mailman3-full on the 2nd server and keep it simple, let debian setup a blank database installation, right? Has anyone seen a good write up on how to do that on a debian server step by step?

Any known limit of number of lists that one can be owner/member of?
by Alan So 15 May '19

15 May '19

We have just migrated hundreds of lists from Mailman 2 to Mailman 3. It was smooth in most of the cases. However, we just notice that there are some abnormal behaviour of Postorius for particular users who are owner/member of a large number of lists. We further look into a particular user who is owner of 84 lists. When the user login Postorius, only 50 lists are displayed no matter what the number of "Results per page" is chosen. Prev/Next page cannot be clicked as there is only 1 page. When I use the following mailman client snippet, it also displays the same 50 lists: lists = client.find_lists('xxx(a)yyy.com', 'owner') for m_list in lists: print(m_list.fqdn_listname) Did we hit any limit of find_lists? Is it a bug or are something wrong during the migration? When the user use "Mailman settings", the page can still display all lists though (it's slow as it probably did a lot of SQL queries!).

Re: Archive Policy not reflecting in Hyperkitty
by Abhilash Raj 14 May '19

14 May '19

Are you using images with "rolling" tags? If yes, you should try to switch to "0.2" tag and the new release will be tagged with the same one. To update, you can do: $ docker pull ... $ docker pull .. $ docker-compose stop $ docker-compose rm $ docker-compose up -d This should basically get you up and running with the new image you pulled. -- thanks, Abhilash Raj (maxking)

Archive Policy not reflecting in Hyperkitty
by Nathan Dixon 07 May '19

07 May '19

So the issue I am seeing is that when I set a lists archive policy to prviate, it isn't reflecting that in Hyperkitty. I am running the docker installation of Mailman, postorius and hyperkitty. So I go into the docker instance of mailman-core and run this: python3 manage.py shell from hyperkitty.models.mailinglist import MailingList MailingList.objects.all().values_list('name', 'archive_policy') And all my lists are showing '2', regardless of how I set the mailing list archive policy. This might be a duplicate of https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/thread/… Am I missing something in my install? Or is this a bug?

Moderate mails from owner
by Henrik Rasmussen 07 May '19

07 May '19

I assume this is by design, but is it correct that a list owner, who are not member, will always be allowed to post to the list, even though "Default action to take when a member posts to the list" and "Default action to take when a non-member posts to thelist" are both set to "Hold for moderation"? The owner is set as also moderator, by the way, which seems redundant. I have a list administrator who would like to be moderated when sending to the list, but there is no Member Options on Owners (nor Moderators). A workaround may be to create a new account for the owner and let the current owner be member instead of owner, as she will then be moderated. /Henrik Rasmussen

Creating and placing custom templates
by kelly.close＠lrewater.com 02 May '19

02 May '19

I know there are previous threads related to this topic but none were very recent so I thought I'd start a new one. I've referenced two of the old ones below. I am attempting to implement a custom footer on one of my lists. This seems like it should be straightforward but I'm clearly doing something wrong, since the default footer keeps coming through despite my efforts. I've referenced the docs as well as these two posts, to no avail. https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/thread/… https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/message… Here's what I'm doing: I found my templates folder and verified it matched what is set in the mailman.cfg file - on my Ubuntu Bionic system it is /var/lib/mailman3/templates/ In that folder I created the following folders and made sure they were properly owned (by list:list) /var/lib/mailman3/templates/lists/f2p2-test.udfcd-lists.org/en/ Into that en/ folder I placed a file called "list:member:regular:footer" It is a text file with just one line of text in it (a link to a website). Also, because there was a mention in one of the earlier posts that this file should have a .txt extension, I also put the same file in there named "list:member:regular:footer.txt". I have two of my own emails subscribed t my "f2p2-test" list at the domain udfcd-lists.org. When I post to the list, and check my other email for the disseminated post, it still has the default footer. I have restarted the mailman3 service. Can anyone spot an obvious error here or offer troubleshooting suggestions? Thank You! ~Kelly
