HTML email sent to lists migrated from Mailman 2.1
by Nate Coraor April 16, 2019

April 16, 2019

Hello all, I have some lists migrated from 2.1 that are stripping the HTML parts (perhaps all attachments?) from messages despite the options to do so not being enabled and lynx not even being installed. I'm trying to get a new list to behave the same way so I can figure out what's going on without spamming a production list, but have been unsuccessful: despite setting nearly all the list options the same as the old lists, new lists pass HTML portions and attachments just fine. I've verified the settings using mailing list objects directly with `mailman withlist` on the command line and the only differences are things that I can't imagine would be related like admin_notify_mchanges, advertised, and archive_policy. Are there are really old options that can't be accessed via mailing list objects obtained with `withlist` on the command line? Thanks, --nate

Mailman in EC2 / Docker -- working but HTTPS not serving static content
by roger.hislop＠is.co.za April 15, 2019

April 15, 2019

Hi again ... I got everything working thanks to Danil, Abhilash, and finally found a simple NGINX conf that worked, using WSGI. Cool. Set up certificates using LetsEncrypt, used another conf to set up SSL, like the conf pasted below. I edited nginx.conf so that it only takes server config from the nginx/conf.d/blahblah.conf below. This works for HTTP, HTTPS works but it (apparently) is not serving static content. There are loads of how-tos to get this to work, but I've failed in all -- it seems to be the static path (I've not tried option using thttpd I've not tried as there is no easy install onto AQWS AMI and it seems like it's not specifically necessary. I'm so close... so close... ------------------------------- server { listen 80 default_server; # listen [::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on; root /usr/share/nginx/html; index index.html index.htm; server_name listman.iotcouncil.org.za; return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri; #<< AUTO_REDIRECT HTTP TO HTTPS # location / { # proxy_pass http://172.19.199.3:8000/; # proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; # proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host; # proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host; # proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme; # proxy_redirect off; # } # # location /static/ { # alias /var/spool/mailman-web/static/; # } # # location /robots.txt { # alias /var/spool/mailman-web/static/hyperkitty/robots.txt; # } # # location /favicon.ico { # alias /var/www/listorg/images/favicon.ico; # } # } server { listen 443 default_server; # listen [::]:443 default_server ipv6only=on; #root /usr/share/nginx/html; #index index.html index.htm; server_name listman.iotcouncil.org.za; ssl on; ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/listman.iotcouncil.org.za/fullchain.pem; ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/listman.iotcouncil.org.za/privkey.pem; ssl_session_timeout 5m; ssl_protocols SSLv3 TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2; ssl_ciphers "HIGH:!aNULL:!MD5 or HIGH:!aNULL:!MD5:!3DES"; ssl_prefer_server_ciphers on; location / { proxy_pass http://172.19.199.3:8000/; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme; proxy_redirect off; } location /static/ { alias /opt/mailman/web/static; } location /robots.txt { alias /var/spool/mailman-web/static/hyperkitty/robots.txt; } location /favicon.ico { alias /var/www/listorg/images/favicon.ico; } }

Mailman Core 3.2.2 is now out
by Abhilash Raj April 14, 2019

April 14, 2019

Hello Everyone, Mailman Core 3.2.2 is released and available on PyPI[1]. This is a regular bugfix release and I had to do that to fix a version constraint which pulled in a pre-release of a dependency (falcon) when installed via pip and caused the default install to break. There are few other changes included in this release, including a big refactor of error reporting in Core's REST API. All the error responses are now correctly formatted as JSON with more information about the error. For example, invalid inputs for Enum data types return the valid options. Other error message are now generated from the input validtor and will be more informative. REST API also accepts input as JSON formatted body, alongside the x-www-form-urlencoded. A full list of changes are available here: https://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/mailman/docs/NEWS.html#id1 This release supports Python 3.5-3.7. Thanks very much to all the contributors involved in this release. [1]: https://pypi.org/project/mailman/ -- thanks, Abhilash Raj (maxking)

List options question
by Phil Stracchino April 13, 2019

April 13, 2019

So, I've just sucscribed to this list, and when I go to set subscription options, I find: Receive list copies (possible duplicates) Yes No When you are listed explicitly in the To: or Cc: headers of a list message, you can opt to not receive another copy from the mailing list. Select No to receive copies. Select Yes to avoid receiving copies from the mailing list. This seems rather ... backwards. "Receive copies? Answer no for yes, yes for no." Is that how the option actually works in mailman3, or is the text of the option decription garbled? -- Phil Stracchino Babylon Communications phils(a)caerllewys.net phil(a)co.ordinate.org Landline: +1.603.293.8485 Mobile: +1.603.998.6958

Mailman3 in dockers on EC2 - running out of memory and puking ev.ry.where.
by roger.hislop＠is.co.za April 11, 2019

April 11, 2019

Hi all -- really need some help. I'm tech literate, but definitely not a sysadmin or dev. I'm following the tutorial at "Olay's Farmland" at https://www.olay.xyz/2018/01/01/deploy-mailman-3-on-aws-using-docker/ which seems to be a clone of the same content here https://xiaoxing.us/2018/01/01/deploy-mailman-3-on-aws-using-docker/ Easy enough to get most of the way ... set up EC2 instance, configure SES and add DNS settings with DKIM etc. Set up Postfix, test it. All working groovy. I run through the how to all the way through setting up the containers and firing it up. This is where things start to get funky. Once the docker-compose is run, I run "curl http://172.19.199.3:8000/postorius/lists/" to test. First time it said it couldn't connect to database. So I nuked and restarted from scratch. Second time it said the same thing... was reading around the place and tried again, and then reran that curl and it worked -- gave me html from a page. But the VM started running slowly --taking forever to follow keypresses. Eventually became unresponsive. So I rebooted the machine via AWS console, and docker ps showed only the postgres db running. docker-compose ps shows Name Command State Ports ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ docker-mailman_database_1 docker-entrypoint.sh postgres Up 5432/tcp mailman-core docker-entrypoint.sh maste ... Exit 255 8001/tcp, 8024/tcp mailman-web docker-entrypoint.sh uwsgi ... Exit 255 8000/tcp, 8080/tcp So rebuilt the container -- same thing. It looks and feels like its running out of memory. I used the compose file from https://gist.githubusercontent.com/Yexiaoxing/833bfcc5d3e4e0c06a8b7f0bac7c4… (with appropriate edits). I have no idea how to proceed from here... Go to logs...

Simplified installation instructions
by Frank Yappa April 8, 2019

April 8, 2019

I've looked at installing Mailman3 many times but have never succeeded - there simply too many instructions. Is there a simple guide to get just web front end to Mailman3 where you can import an existing mailing list simply for viewing? Which is the easiest system to install Mailman3 on? I have a Debian system and would be grateful for any pointers showing how to install it . I came across:- https://iomarmochtar.wordpress.com/2017/07/21/mailman3-easy-installation/ but this is for Centos and I don't know what to change. Elsewhere I came across a list of apps which needed to be installed on Debian but that didn't work because of missing packages. apt-get install python3-setuptools python3-virtualenv python3-dev git gcc node-less nodejs postfix python3-tox

easy way to delete old mails in hyperkitty?
by l.schimmer＠cgv.tugraz.at April 8, 2019

April 8, 2019

Hi! is thjere a easy way to delete old mails in hyperkitty? e.g. with a list and checkmarks, or via a cli command? We got several mailinglists and we did import them from mailman2.x into mailman 3.2. Now it is time to remove old posts before 2016. But I do not see a easy way to remove old posts in one go, just the "remove thread" button in each mail view. thank you, Lars

Archiver "prototype" and disabling archiving at all

April 7, 2019

Hi list, in the settings of a mailing list I can choose two archivers: "Hyperkitty" and "prototype". What is this archive "prototype" and how can I disable/remove/deinstall it? And how can I disable archiving at all, so no archiver can be chosen in the settings. Best regards Torge

UI changes in Hyperkitty
by Abhilash Raj April 2, 2019

April 2, 2019

Hi All, I have been working this past weekend trying to change some UI elements of Hyperkitty to make it a bit more cleaner, easier to read quoted emails and make unread posts more visible than they were before. As a test bed, I have deployed my changes to lists.mailman3.org[1]. A complete summary of changes is available in my MR[2] on Gitlab. I would appreciate some feedback from users to make sure that is is a step in the right direction. Since it has been a long long time since I ever designed a UI, I would also really appreciate if there people who want to work with me on fixing some of the UX issues in Hyperkitty. Summary of Changes: --------------------------------- - The grey background for the email headers are removed. - Gravatars are now round in shape instead of square. - Links to permalink of the message and fixed-font button has been moved to the bottom to remove clutter from the top of the message. - The date format is changed to remove the Day of the week and uses 3 letter month names for minimalism. - Right sidebar is now fixed and doesn't scroll with the page. - All buttons on the bottom of the email now have a hover property that changes their background on mouse hover. - Quoted part of the email now has a different background. Each level of quoting gets a different background till 3-levels of indentation. After, which we don't process more quoted text. - Unread threads show a blue bar on the left side as a more prominent indication as compared to current envelope icon. [1]: https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/ [2]: https://gitlab.com/mailman/hyperkitty/merge_requests/132 Feel free to reply here or just comment on MR in Gitlab. -- thanks, Abhilash Raj (maxking)

mail stuck in "out" queue
by Dmitry Makovey March 30, 2019

March 30, 2019

I've had encountered this situation now twice: mail is being stuck in "out" queue and nothing in the logs indicates the issue. Is there a way to ask mailman-core politely to attempt delivery (perhaps with increased debugging in the logs) *without* restarting the core (which does solve *this* problem but creates other problems, like availability of the mailman as a whole) -- Sr System and DevOps Engineer SoM IRT

Delete archive of mailing list
by Torge Riedel March 28, 2019

March 28, 2019

Hi list, I've successfully set up mailman3 in a test environment and deleted a test list which I only used for some basic tests. Looking at the archiver, the archive is still there and I haven't found a way to delete it. Although I am logged in as admin. Is there a (non-) official way to delete the archive? I want a clean environment for the later user to test mailman3. Thanks and regards Torge

Introducing Mailman Web project
by Abhilash Raj March 26, 2019

March 26, 2019

I have been working on a new sub-project Mailman Web[1][2]. This project basically combines Postorius and Hyperkitty together in a single package which you can easily use to serve Mailman's web interface. The basic motivation behind this was to make it simpler for people to install the web interface *and* make it easier for people to configure Mailman's web ui. Both Postorius and Hyperkitty are based on Django Web Framework, which uses settings.py as its default configuration language. While it is quite convenient for Python developers to be able to put Python statements in configuration to join/edit/configure settings. However, I think a traditional INI, or TOML style configuration is easier for non-developers without having to worry about PYTHONPATH, valid Python sytax etc, etc. For this reason, I decided to combine all the projects together into a Django project which can be easily installed and run: $ pip install mailman-web # Export Settings for commands to just work. $ export DJANGO_SETTINGS=mailman_web.settings $ django-admin migrate $ django-admin runserver This should get you default settings for running. If you want to customize your installation, which you almost always would need to in a prod environment, you can create a config file at one of these locations (which are searched in following order): - /etc/mailman-web.toml - /etc/mailman3/mailman-web.toml - ./mailman-web.toml Note that we support only TOML as the configuration language[3][4] because of its simplicity. I would have loved to use INI, like Mailman Core, but it turns out to be way too simple to represent more complex data structures like maps and tables, that is commonly used in Django's Settings. This project is currently in alpha stage (I created it today!), but can be installed with pip[5] and in my basic tests works. There isn't much in the project itself beyond some configurations. I also took this opportunity to document all the settings that are used in Mailman Web (both Postorius and Hyperkitty) together[6]. This is documented in code and so I really hope that it won't go out of date like many other places ;-) Improvements to docs is very welcome, just a modification of a comment and is quite easy to propose right in your web browser using Gitlab! Any questions, comments or suggestions are welcome. You can open issues for feature requests on gitlab[1] too.

Configuring the List-Archive and Archived-At headers
by Ralph Seichter March 25, 2019

March 25, 2019

With archiving enabled, mail is sent with headers like the following: Archived-At: <https://example.com/hyperkitty/list/foo-users@lists.example.com/message/ABC/> List-Archive: <https://example.com/hyperkitty/list/foo-users@lists.example.com/> List-Post: <mailto:foo-users@lists.example.com> List-Subscribe: <mailto:foo-users-join@lists.example.com> The 'mailto:' entries are fine, but I need all 'https:' links to be prefixed with https://lists.example.com instead of https://example.com . Does Mailman extract CN parts from the SSL certificate to populate the header values (that would explain 'example.com' in my tests), or is this something I can influence using configuration parameters? I searched the docs for Mailman Suite and HyperKitty, but did not find an answer. -Ralph

State of STARTTLS/SMTPS support?
by Ralph Seichter March 21, 2019

March 21, 2019

Hello list. I just found https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/issues/252 and was surprised to see that a) the issue is two years old and b) a related merge request has been submitted a year ago and is also still open. The possibility to send mail unencrypted via localhost is something I have in a test environment, but not in production. I need to be able to specify settings that look like these: [mta] smtp_host: outbound-mta.mydomain.tld smtp_port: 587 smtp_security: STARTTLS When is STARTTLS/SMTPS likely to become available in Mailman? -Ralph

How to best disable message decoration for all lists defined for a domain
by Ralph Seichter March 19, 2019

March 19, 2019

Hello list. I have read [1] and [2], but I am not quite sure what the recommended method is to completely disable message headers/footers and subject modifications for *all* lists tied to a specific domain. Being new to Mailman 3, I was actually surprised that there are no configuration switches in the Web UI's settings for mailing lists that allow me to get rid of unwanted message decorations.

REST Runner (and other runners) taking long time to boot up
by Dmitry Makovey March 18, 2019

March 18, 2019

splitting this discussion into it's own thread from "MM3 occasionally chokes (?)". Re-iterating background info for posterity: we have been experiencing increasingly long boot ups from mailman-core over the past year to the point where it's at about 45min for the sequence to complete. We run couple of mailing lists (20+) that are anywhere between 100 and 10K+ members and most of them are low traffic. From what I can tell all that time is spent doing some sort of indexing operations, I'm writing from memory since I can't restart the system to confirm that. sizes of directories that containers use: 3.6G core 352M database 285M web state of my queues (as far as I understand how to evaluate them: $ for q in core/var/queue/*; do echo ${q}; ls ${q}/ | wc -l ; done core/var/queue/archive 1 core/var/queue/bad 3845 core/var/queue/bounces 0 core/var/queue/command 0 core/var/queue/digest 0 core/var/queue/in 0 core/var/queue/nntp 0 core/var/queue/out 7 core/var/queue/pipeline 0 core/var/queue/retry 1 core/var/queue/shunt 958 core/var/queue/virgin 0 what kind of tuning should we be looking into to speed up our boot-ups? -- Sr System and DevOps Engineer SoM IRT

MM3 occasionally chokes (?)
by Dmitry Makovey March 18, 2019

March 18, 2019

In the last couple of month we've observed some odd behavior from MM3 (namely the core) where it seems like email that is about to be sent to a large-ish mailing list (10K users) has been processed yet never gets sent out until we restart the core. I would appreciate any pointers on where to look for the source of the problem. At the moment, since I can't reliably reproduce it I can't really test it nor do I know where to look next time things get stuck. Mailing list in question is high profile thus when event like this happens I have only limited time amount to spend on troubleshooting/digging before I just restart the core (which by the way takes about 45min to fully start... which is another puzzle to solve at later time) -- Sr System and DevOps Engineer SoM IRT

REST API Question: possible to change user preferred email?
by Nathan Dixon March 18, 2019

March 18, 2019

Hi, We are in need of being able to change a user's email address via the REST API. After looking through the documentation and code, I can't see a way to do this in a simple way. Although the documentation seems to show that if a user changes their preferred address, it will track throughout all their subscriptions. See: https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/blob/master/src/mailman/rest/docs/member… "When Gwen changes her preferred address, her subscription automatically tracks the new address." The only way I can see to do this via the REST API would be to do the following long winded way: *1. Create a new address:* POST to http://<api_url>/3.1/users/<$OldEmail>/addresses $postData: {email = "$NewEmail"} *2. Verify the new address:* POST to http://<api_url>/3.1/addresses/<$NewEmail>/verify $postData: { } *3. Get all the memberships for the old email address* $memberships = GET to http://<api_url>/3.1/addresses/<$OldEmail>/memberships *4. Change users email for each membership individually* foreach ($membership in $memberships) { PATCH to http://<api_url>/3.1/members/<$membership.member_id> $pathData: { address = $NewEmail } } *5. Delete Old Address* DELETE to http://<api_url>/3.1/addresses/<$OldEmail> Am I missing something (as in there is a way to do a single PATCH request somewhere)? Or is this the only way to update someone's email address with these 5 steps? Thanks, Nathan Dixon

[Mailman-Users] mailman 3 and freeipa

Hi Steve, I don't have a complete answer offhand (and right now I'm just reducing my inbox so a single google search is as much as I can do), but searching for "freeipa django" indicates that there are "connectors" for Django and FreeIPA. The nicest option would be a plugin for Django's socialauth application. If that doesn't seem to exist, perhaps you can just add a FreeIPA application to the Django configuration. You would need to add it to both Postorius and HyperKitty configurations.

How to count the number of members in a list using Mailman client?
by Alan So March 18, 2019

March 18, 2019

I tried to do so using Mailman client but it is really slow for lists with size > 1000. I use the following code snippet: my_list = client.get_list(listname) print ("number of members =", len(my_list.members)) Are there any other ways to do so in a much faster speed? Thanks.

mailman admin (django) interface does not work anymore after deleting website example.com
by Torge Riedel March 10, 2019

March 10, 2019

Hi, I've just installed successfully mailman3 and started with basic configuration. When adding a new domain it gives me a link to a django admin page where I have to configure the available websites. I deleted the existing "example.com" and added a new one "lists.mydomain.de". Now the admin (django) interface always gives "An error occurred while processing your request". After one of the first navigation clicks I saw a message that "site with id 1 is missing". Can you point me to where the problem is and how to solve it? Maybe it was not a good idea to delete the existing one, but I would have expected that django will prevent this, if it will fail afterwards. Thanks and regards Torge The logs: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/mailman/web/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/core/handlers/exception.py", line 34, in inner response = get_response(request) File "/opt/mailman/web/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/core/handlers/base.py", line 156, in _get_response response = self.process_exception_by_middleware(e, request) File "/opt/mailman/web/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/core/handlers/base.py", line 154, in _get_response response = response.render() File "/opt/mailman/web/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/template/response.py", line 106, in render self.content = self.rendered_content File "/opt/mailman/web/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/template/response.py", line 83, in rendered_content content = template.render(context, self._request) File "/opt/mailman/web/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/template/backends/django.py", line 61, in render return self.template.render(context) File "/opt/mailman/web/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/template/base.py", line 169, in render with context.bind_template(self): File "/usr/lib/python3.6/contextlib.py", line 81, in __enter__ return next(self.gen) File "/opt/mailman/web/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/template/context.py", line 246, in bind_template updates.update(processor(self.request)) File "/opt/mailman/web/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django_mailman3/context_processors.py", line 32, in common context["site_name"] = get_current_site(request).name File "/opt/mailman/web/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/contrib/sites/shortcuts.py", line 13, in get_current_site return Site.objects.get_current(request) File "/opt/mailman/web/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/contrib/sites/models.py", line 60, in get_current return self._get_site_by_id(site_id) File "/opt/mailman/web/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/contrib/sites/models.py", line 32, in _get_site_by_id site = self.get(pk=site_id) File "/opt/mailman/web/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/db/models/manager.py", line 82, in manager_method return getattr(self.get_queryset(), name)(*args, **kwargs) File "/opt/mailman/web/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/db/models/query.py", line 399, in get self.model._meta.object_name django.contrib.sites.models.Site.DoesNotExist: Site matching query does not exist.

Automatic response to non-members
by daniel.eckhoff＠gmail.com March 8, 2019

March 8, 2019

Hi! I have a mailing list, where I accept every incoming message without subscription. I set this up for a recruitment website (jobs(a)xyz.org) It works nice. All mails are sent to archive where me and other admins can go through all applications. Now we want to set up an automatic response to incoming messages. I tried to set "Autorespond postings" but since the applicants are not subscribers, this won't work. I aso set the template for "Notice sent to a poster when their message has been received by the mailing list". Both approaches don't seem to work. Any ideas to get this working without relying on additional software?

Domain Resolving Issue
by brian＠emwd.com March 7, 2019

March 7, 2019

I am running a Mailman 3 server with about 5 list domains configured on it. Most of them resolve quickly both to Postorius and HyperKitty. However there is one domain that resolves very slowly. Once it does, access to other pages/tasks go quickly. If you don't do anything with that domain in the browser after about 5 minutes, it takes its time again to resolve. What could be causing this? The webserver is Nginx. Not sure if this is a Mailman 3 issue or not. Brian

Change settings via mailman shell
by kk＠eco.cept.org March 6, 2019

March 6, 2019

I am trying to find a way to set some parameters on the lists from a shell script. One specific parameter - max_message_size is not presented through the REST interface apparantly, and i found a way to set this with mailman shell command. Continuing this path i seem not to be able to set any other parameters like this: m.archive_policy = 'never' m.subject_prefix = '' m.dmarc_mitigate_action = 'munge_from' m.dmarc_mitigate_unconditionally = True commit() However i end up with this error: sqlalchemy.exc.StatementError: (builtins.AttributeError) 'str' object has no attribute 'value' [SQL: 'UPDATE mailinglist SET archive_policy=?, dmarc_mitigate_action=?, dmarc_mitigate_unconditionally=?, subject_prefix=? WHERE mailinglist.id = ?'] [parameters: [{'dmarc_mitigate_unconditionally': 'True', 'dmarc_mitigate_action': 'munge_from', 'subject_prefix': '', 'archive_policy': 'never', 'mailinglist_id': 65}]] Not sure what to make of it, but it seems like the fields are not there. I then proceed to get a list of all parameters with information found here: http://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailmanclient/en/latest/src/mailmanclient… and the parameters seems to exist - however this list is made with the REST interface - so my question are - are there a difference in parameters in "mailman shell" command and REST interface - and how do i then get a list of parameter and possible settings in the "mailman shell" command ? Thanks in advance Kenneth Denmark

Mailman3 without Hyperkitty in docker
by Danil Smirnov March 4, 2019

March 4, 2019

Hi, I'm interesting in Mailman3 deployment with archiving feature completely disabled. I've tried to deploy Core + Postorius using this docker-compose template: https://github.com/maxking/docker-mailman/blob/master/docker-compose-postor… Unfortunately Postorius version came with this template is quite outdated: 1.2.0a1 (as reported in page footer). In Hyperkitty-enabled docker image I see version 1.2.3. I've also checked image maxking/postorius:rolling but it seems irrelevant/broken (container exits with error). Are there newer Postorius docker image I can use? Thanks, Danil Smirnov

Bounces address spammed
by Enrique Terrazas Feb. 28, 2019

Feb. 28, 2019

Greetings, I hope everyone is having a good day. We have a highly visible list that is being spammed with join requests from spoofed addresses. When the confirmation email is sent a bounce is received by the list owner. The count is in the 100’s of bounced emails/hour. We noticed they are all coming from one particular domain, this may help if we are able to filter/block the domain. What would be the best way to handle this? Is there a way to handle this granularly at the list level? Thank you as always for your assistance. Enrique

Member occur in Subscription Requests when Subscription Policy = Confirm
by Henrik Rasmussen Feb. 27, 2019

Feb. 27, 2019

When Subscription Policy is set to Confirm (only), new potential subscriber appears in Subscription Requests until they have confirmed that they actually want to subscribe. As expected, the new potential subscriber receives a mail with a link to confirm. And also as expected, since moderation is NOT needed, the admin does not receive a mail about authorisation. Why does the new potential subscriber appear in Subscription Requests until confirmed by the subscriber, when the admin doesn't have to appove anyway? Is that by design? /Henrik Rasmussen

Changing delivery mode for ALL subscribers on a SINGLE list using REST
by Henrik Rasmussen Feb. 25, 2019

Feb. 25, 2019

While in Mailman Settings a user can change delivery mode for either Global (all subscriptions regardless of address or list), Address based (regardless of list name) or List Based (regardless of address). The list admin can change a user's delivery mode setting on a single list (affecting only that address and only that list), but only one subscriber at the time on the list. Changing a user's delivery mode can also be done using REST[1], but I asume this will affect the user's subscription on all the lists where she subscribed using the same address. How do I change ALL the subscribers[2] on a _single list_ to a certain delivery mode, using REST? [1] https://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/mailman/rest/docs/preferences.… [2] Most likely by iterating through all subscribers, one at the time, on the list in question.
