No path configuration found: paths.master
by Pierre Abbat Oct. 27, 2017

Oct. 27, 2017

I installed postorius and hyperkitty with pip and ran into another problem. I ran "mailman info" and got "No path configuration found: paths.master". I have three files named mailman.cfg: /etc/mailman.cfg /usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/mailman/config/mailman.cfg /var/etc/mailman.cfg The one in /etc contains the following: [mailman] layout: master The one in /var/etc is completely commented out. If I move the one in /etc/ out of the way and run "mailman info" again, I get this: GNU Mailman 3.1.0 (Between The Wheels) Python 3.5.2 (default, Sep 14 2017, 22:51:06) [GCC 5.4.0 20160609] config file: None db url: sqlite:////etc/var/data/mailman.db devmode: DISABLED REST root url: http://localhost:8001/3.1/ REST credentials: restadmin:restpass It said "config file: /var/etc/mailman.cfg" before.

Moderating posts via email
by Dmitry Makovey Oct. 26, 2017

Oct. 26, 2017

Hi, we are trying to figure out what is that we're doing wrong as we can't use instructions that mailman sends with information on held messages as referenced in: https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/blob/master/src/mailman/chains/hold.py#L… In particular - replying to the message with "Approved: listpassword" we were not able to approve any message. Since there's no place we could find in interface to change ML password I did it through the mailmanclient: ml=client.get_list('mylists(a)lists.some.com') ml.settings['moderator_password']='password123' ml.settings.save() after which we've used above password trying to approve messages following the steps outlined above. What are we doing wrong, or where to look for further information? -- Sr System and DevOps Engineer SoM IRT

scheduled tasks in docker-based deployments
by Dmitry Makovey Oct. 26, 2017

Oct. 26, 2017

I came across the section http://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/config-web.html#scheduled-tasks-required that claims that crontab entries are *required* for normal MM3 operations, but I do not see anything like that in docker-based implementation. Should I add similar cron jobs manually to the host box? -- Sr System and DevOps Engineer SoM IRT

Hello, could you provide an example how I can set various configuration variables using "mailman withlist" or "mailman "shell" on _all_ lists? E.g. I want to set on all lists: m.send_welcome_message = 0 m.send_goodbye_message = 0 Thank you! P.M.

mailman info traceback (Ubuntu Xenial)
by Pierre Abbat Oct. 26, 2017

Oct. 26, 2017

I'm trying to set up a mailing list server using Mailman. I created a server running Ubuntu Xenial and installed, then removed, the Mailman in the repo, which is 1:2.1.20-1ubuntu0.1. Then I installed pip and ran "pip3 install mailman" and "mailman info" and got an error with traceback. I then tried installing sass and Django following the instructions (I have no idea about sass and Django), then uninstalled and reinstalled Mailman, and tried "mailman info" again. Here is the result: root@lists:/# mailman info Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/mailman", line 11, in <module> sys.exit(main()) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/mailman/bin/mailman.py", line 97, in main initialize(config_path) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/mailman/core/initialize.py", line 185, in initialize initialize_2(propagate_logs=propagate_logs) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/mailman/core/initialize.py", line 156, in initialize_2 config.db = getUtility(IDatabaseFactory, utility_name).create() File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/mailman/database/factory.py", line 55, in create SchemaManager(database).setup_database() File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/mailman/database/factory.py", line 96, in setup_database alembic.command.stamp(alembic_cfg, 'head') File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/alembic/command.py", line 504, in stamp script.run_env() File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/alembic/script/base.py", line 425, in run_env util.load_python_file(self.dir, 'env.py') File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/alembic/util/pyfiles.py", line 81, in load_python_file module = load_module_py(module_id, path) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/alembic/util/compat.py", line 83, in load_module_py spec.loader.exec_module(module) File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap_external>", line 665, in exec_module File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 222, in _call_with_frames_removed File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/mailman/database/alembic/ env.py", line 38, in <module> @public File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/public/public.py", line 15, in public else sys.modules[thing.__module__].__dict__) KeyError: 'env_py' What am I doing wrong, and how do I fix it?

integrating mm3 with postfix / lmtp

Hello, I have mm3 up and running via docker (courtesy of maxking/docker-mailman) but when i send an email to my test list, it bounces back claiming user unknown. it states: <"lmtp:[172.19.199.2]:8024"@>: unknown user: "lmtp:[172.19.199.2]:8024" looking at the email source, it seems as though the message is trying to be delivered to: Final-Recipient: rfc822; "lmtp:[172.19.199.2]:8024"@<my email server's FQDN> Original-Recipient: rfc822;test123@<my list's email domain> all of various alias transport maps are defined in postfix's main.cf. not sure where to go from here. does anyone have any clues? -- Thanks, Fabian S.

mail host choices when creating a new list

Hi! So, I'm trying to create a new list and pick one of the other mail domains we have configured (from the django admin panel), yet in the "Create New List" page in postorius, I see only a single option (the first domain we'd added/set as the default) in the drop-down under "Mail Host". Am I missing somewhere else I need to add alternative mail domains to? Thanks in advance!

Mails from Django are not sent
by Bjoern Franke Oct. 17, 2017

Hi, I'm using the "mailman-suite" setup for Postorious and Hyperkitty. I've set EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend' EMAIL_HOST = 'localhost' in settings.py, but no mails are sent. Files with the e-mails are in the emails folder, but nothing happens, also no errors regarding emails are logged. Postfix as MTA can be connected via localhost:25 and e.g. mailman-core can use it fine. What can I do for further debugging? Kind regards Bjoern Franke

Disabling max_message_size and send_welcome/goodbye_msg globally or by API
by Peter Mueller Oct. 11, 2017

Oct. 11, 2017

Hello, is it possible to turn off max_message_size and send_welcome_msg / send_goodbye_msg globally? If there are no global options, how can I turn off these feature using the REST API? In python you can do it with >>> mlist.max_message_size = 0. If I send a PATCH request to lists/some@list/config with body max_message_size=0, I get "Unknown attribute". Same for send_welcome_msg and send_goodbye_msg. Thank you! P.M.

Re: Mailman core: basic internationalization howto?
by David Krantz Oct. 6, 2017

Oct. 6, 2017

Hi. This is far short of a howto: I have done something similar for one of my lists, although for Swedish. I just added custom templates for all things necessary and set the default language for the list to "sv" for Swedish. It worked without setting the language on the list but then any non-ASCII characters in the template caused mailman to crash and lose the mail without any warning if you send a HTML-formatted message. But it works just fine for pure text messages, I guess as the character set in my test mail was something compatible. I think I filed an error for this. The language for the list can be set via the "mailman withlist" command (or in the database directly, but I have not tried that). I run a relatively new version of mailman, after 3.1. Without Hyperkitty. // David On Wed, Oct 4, 2017 at 10:55 AM, Thor Atle Rustad <thor.rustad(a)gmail.com> wrote: > I would like to use Norwegian in the welcome/subscribe/unsubscribe/confirm > etc messages from mailman3.

Something wrong with my Hyperkitty base_url?

Finally have everything stood up and working, except for HyperKitty mailman plugin.

question about recommended postfix configuration
by Marc Sluiter Oct. 2, 2017

Oct. 2, 2017

Hi, im trying to setup mailman and have an issue: first my environment: - I’m running postfix etc with "mailcow-dockerized": https://mailcow.github.io/mailcow-dockerized-docs/ - I’m running mailman with "docker-mailman": https://asynchronous.in/docker-mailman/ I got almost everything working besides confirm mails (see my other mail), but I had to use another postfix configuration than recommended, I’m wondering why the recommended way didn’t work. Sidenote: I’m not a postfix expert. This is recommended: transport_maps = regexp:/opt/mailman/core/var/data/postfix_lmtp local_recipient_maps = regexp:/opt/mailman/core/var/data/postfix_lmtp relay_domains = regexp:/opt/mailman/core/var/data/postfix_domains This didn’t work, all mails to mailman were rejected. Postfix did not even check the “local_recipient_maps”. After a lot of reading that made sense to me, because when I understand it correctly, “local_recipient_maps” is only checked for domains in “mydestinations”. And there I only have localhost. My first change then was to use “relay_recipient_maps” instead of “local_recipient_maps”, because the domains were also added to the relay configuration "relay_domains". That worked. But then I noticed warnings by postfix about having the same domain in “virtual_mailbox_domains” and “relay_domains”. Made sense again because I used the same domain in my “normal” mail setup (with “virtual_mailbox_domains”) and in mailman. So finally I ended up with adding the mailman files to “virtual_mailbox_domains” and “virtual_mailbox_maps” instead of “relay_domains” and “local_recipient_maps”. Do my findings and changes make sense to you? Or do I miss something important? Good thing is that at least “transport_maps” worked for whatever configuration I used :) Thanks and greetings, Marc

default language ignored
by Marc Sluiter Oct. 2, 2017

Oct. 2, 2017

Hi, one last question for now: how do switch the language of the mails sent by mailman? I have this in my configuration, but without effect: [language.de] charset: iso-8859-1 [language.de] description: German [language.de] enabled: yes [mailman] default_language: de Is it also possible to change the language for a single list? Greetings, Marc

Confirmation email bounces because of listname+something@example.com
by thor.rustad＠gmail.com Oct. 2, 2017

Oct. 2, 2017

I'm sure this is a small configuration error, but I have followed the instructions for mailman3 and postfix. Basically mailman works fine, but confirmation emails, when answered by the subscriber or would-be subscriber, fails because 'listname' (after the '+something' is stripped off) is not a local user. Also see my post to the postfix group: http://postfix.1071664.n5.nabble.com/address-extension-fails-for-mailman-td…. Mind you, the postfix local_recipient_maps=regexp:/path/postfix_lmtp will correctly match any of the lists, but once the <+something> is added to the listname, it fails.

"Private archives" aren't private

Hello, #129 says that private lists are visible in the archive overview only but "archives aren't displayed". However, I can browse a private list's archives and read the mail text while not logged in. Shouldn't the private archive be hidden from anonymous users? Simon

"spoofing" mailing list address
by Dmitry Makovey Sept. 29, 2017

Sept. 29, 2017

Hi, We're trying to migrate from 2.1.x to 3.1. In the process we want to modify old setup in which mailing lists were part of our normal mail domain (so both user accounts and ML would be under @x.stanford.edu) in new scenario we want to move ML into @lists.x.stanford.edu, yet preserve addressing compatibility with old naming scheme. To that end we thought of making following setup: list(a)x.stanford.edu -postfix:alias-> list(a)lists.x.stanford.edu however in this setup users will receive mail from the "unknown" domain for them so any filtering they've done will break. Is there a configuration change we can make for those old ML to spoof old ML emails? so they would look as if they came from list(a)x.stanford.edu ? -- Sr System and DevOps Engineer SoM IRT

Mailman only send some release messages to the subscribers
by Henrik Rasmussen Sept. 28, 2017

Sept. 28, 2017

I have three list admins each maintaining one list, thus three lists: E, H and S. All reports that some mails they release from Held messages are sent, some isn't. In the logs (Mailman smtp.log and postfix log I can confirm that at least one of the lists (E) sent out another message to 559 recips at Sep 26 09:31:12 201 (UTC+2) so something is working. The admin of list E explains that she have released mails that came out, but some mails isn't sent when she reases them. Among others a mail she released Sep 26 09:38. I can also see in the Mailman Postfix log that Mailman received a mail from the Admin's e-mail address sender(a)foo.bar. Sep 26 09:38:49 postfix postfix/smtpd[5527]: D8E6D1109026: client=gateway[172.19.199.1] Sep 26 09:38:49 postfix postfix/cleanup[6076]: D8E6D1109026: message-id=<E7657360D6CFE64DBAC4E5D158511918873690FB(a)mailserver.foo.bar> Sep 26 09:38:49 postfix postfix/qmgr[139]: D8E6D1109026: from=<sender(a)foo.bar>, size=19589, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Sep 26 09:38:49 postfix postfix/lmtp[6077]: D8E6D1109026: to=<s(a)listserver.foo.bar>, relay=172.19.199.2[172.19.199.2]:8024, delay=0.03, delays=0.01/0.01/0/0.01, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 Ok) Sep 26 09:38:49 postfix postfix/qmgr[139]: D8E6D1109026: removed I cannot find the mail-id in the Mailman smtp.log, however in the smtp.log I found that the mail was received Sep 26 09:38:49 2017 (32) Peer: ('172.19.199.5', 49238) Sep 26 09:38:49 2017 (32) ('172.19.199.5', 49238) handling connection Sep 26 09:38:49 2017 (32) ('172.19.199.5', 49238) Data: b'LHLO mailgateway.foo.bar' Sep 26 09:38:49 2017 (32) ('172.19.199.5', 49238) Data: b'MAIL FROM:<sender(a)foo.bar>' Sep 26 09:38:49 2017 (32) ('172.19.199.5', 49238) sender: sender(a)foo.bar Sep 26 09:38:49 2017 (32) ('172.19.199.5', 49238) Data: b'RCPT TO:<s(a)listserver.foo.bar>' Sep 26 09:38:49 2017 (32) ('172.19.199.5', 49238) recip: s(a)listserver.foo.bar Sep 26 09:38:49 2017 (32) ('172.19.199.5', 49238) Data: b'DATA' Sep 26 09:38:49 2017 (32) ('172.19.199.5', 49238) Data: b'QUIT' Sep 26 09:38:49 2017 (32) ('172.19.199.5', 49238) connection lost Sep 26 09:38:49 2017 (32) Connection lost during _handle_client() I don't see any release of the held mail not that it was sent out.

mailman-cli tools
by Dmitry Makovey Sept. 27, 2017

Sept. 27, 2017

I've come across mailman-cli docs: http://mailman-cli.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/mailmanclient/cli/docs/usin… yet I cannot figure out what's the official source for the installation. Rabbit hole of links lead me to https://github.com/rajeevs1992/mailmancli which suggests: sudo pip install mailman.client and that doesn't work. I also did: pip install mailmanclient in hopes that it comes with CLI tools, but it looks like it is only the library. Am I looking in wrong places or is it that mailman3 cli tools are "not there"? -- Sr System and DevOps Engineer SoM IRT

HyperKitty: Thread matching query does not exist

Greetings, I have an active list for which I am trying to debug some deliverability issues. When a user tells me that folks aren't getting their postings, I check the archives first. In this case, I am getting a traceback saying "thread matching query does not exist" when I try to go to the HyperKitty page for the list. How can I debug this?

Upgrade path
by David Krantz Sept. 23, 2017

Sept. 23, 2017

Hi. I currently run MM3.0 based on the old bundle installation. It seems to work just fine although with a number of minor and major annoyances that probably have been fixed now. What is the rekommended way to upgrade to the newest version? (newest _usable_ version, of course)? Is it docker-only with a migration from the current solution to a docker based? If so, any ideas or pointers on how to go about this? Cheers // David

mailman 3 adding extraneous /var/ to pid path?
by Andrew Hodder Sept. 21, 2017

Sept. 21, 2017

I'm not sure if this is a bug, or if I've configured something I'm unable to find doing this. But when I'm attempting to stop my mailman3 process, I keep getting an extra /var/ appending into the pid path, so it never finds the PID to terminate. Here are some examples, run at different times, some with different -C configs to launch, all worked successfully to start, this is only a problem on the stop.: (venv3) [root@mailman3(on1) venv3]# mailman stop Shutting down Mailman's master runner PID unreadable in: /opt/mailman/venv3/var/master.pid [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/opt/mailman/venv3/var/master.pid' Is the master even running? (venv3) [root@mailman3(on1) var]# mailman stop Shutting down Mailman's master runner PID unreadable in: /opt/mailman/var/var/master.pid [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/opt/mailman/var/var/master.pid' (venv3) [root@mailman3(on1) var]# mailman stop Shutting down Mailman's master runner PID unreadable in: /opt/mailman/var/etc/var/var/master.pid [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/opt/mailman/var/etc/var/var/master.pid' I keep getting around this by creating symlinks to the pid file and then the stop works, but it's getting silly. It seems like mailman just assumes CWD + /var/ + master.pid must be the location. Once I realized this, I found I can do "mailman stop" so long as I'm only in /opt/mailman/ (since it'd then add /var/master.pid). But that seems a little nonsensical. Going to try my hand at using the environment variables MAILMAN_CONFIG_FILE and MAILMAN_VAR_DIR, maybe that will sort this out. But if anyone can explain further, it'd be appreciated.

Mailman List Lost on URL transfer
by heartsandbones＠zoho.com Sept. 20, 2017

Sept. 20, 2017

Hello Mailman Forum! I hope you all can help me. I have been banging my head against this issue for weeks. Here’s the scoop: I did a web site redesign for a non-profit. They didn’t mention to me that they had a mailman list associated with the site. When we transferred the url to Squarespace their list quakers(a)sbfriends.org stopped functioning and the administration login link: http://mail.sbfriends.org/mailman/admin/quakers_sbfriends.org results in a “server not found” error. I don’t know how to set up the site so that their mailman list works again. Please tell me exactly what to do to make this work. Let me know if I can provide any additional information to help you help me. This is my first post to this forum, so I hope I’ve done so correctly. Thanks so much! Licity

Log for outgoing e-mails
by Henrik Rasmussen Sept. 20, 2017

Sept. 20, 2017

Docker mailman 0.1.1 Where is outgoing e-mails logged? Where can I see who it was sent to? On my test list I subscribed a new member (say recipient(a)hotmail.com) using Mass operation subscription. From another e-mail, not subscribed to the list (say sender(a)example.ku.dk) I sent a mail to the list which was held as expected. The message was logged in /opt/mailman/core/var/logs/smtp.log. When I released the mail, the newcoming member recipient(a)hotmail.com received the mail as expected, but I don’t see any log messages that the mail was sent other than: Sep 20 11:50:52 2017 (34) <6DCC3E5DA06FE346B4DE4876C4F2713D019BB70E39(a)foo.bar> smtp to testlist(a)mailman3.ku.dk for 1 recips, completed in 0.052258968353271484 seconds Sep 20 11:50:52 2017 (34) <6DCC3E5DA06FE346B4DE4876C4F2713D019BB70E39(a)foo.bar> post to testlist(a)mailman3.ku.dk from sender(a)example.ku.dk, 13041 bytes -- Henrik Rasmussen <her(a)adm.ku.dk> University of Copenhagen, Danmark

restrict sending to owner/moderator

Hello, I'd like to restrict message acceptance on a per-list basis to the owner or moderator, so that simple subscribers cannot send messages to the list. But I don't want the owner/moderator having to moderate own messages, so the member setting "hold for moderation" in Postorius isn't applicable. Is there a way to do this?

Deleting archives
by Henrik Rasmussen Sept. 14, 2017

Sept. 14, 2017

Docker-mailman 0.1: I have deleted some lists that I used for testing, but Hyperkitty seems to preserve the archives in the Available lists. Clicking on a list archive gets me to the archive of that list (with no posts because I haven't posted anything to the list). The URL is https://[WEBSITE]/hyperkitty/list/[LISTNAME](a)[LISTDOMAIN]/<https://[WEBSITE]/hyperkitty/list/%5bLISTNAME%5d(a)%5bLISTDOMAIN%5d/> (with a (a)), but when I click Manage subscription, the URI changes to https://[WEBSITE]/postorius/lists/[LISTNAME].[LIST<https://[WEBSITE]/postorius/lists/%5bLISTNAME%5d.%5bLIST>DOMAIN/ (with a dot instead of (a) which seems normal behavior) and I get a "Not Found The requested URL /postorius/lists/[LISTNAME]DOT[LISTDOMAIN]/ was not found on this server. " error. Of course I can't manage the subscription for a list I have deleted, but shouldn't the archive for a list be deleted along deleting the list. Henrik Rasmussen

Mailman 3 bounce handling and DKIM mitigation
by David Krantz Sept. 5, 2017

Sept. 5, 2017

Hi, I have a question on bounce handling. I get the impression that bounces are just lost and neither handled nor forwarded to the list admin. Is this a known problem? I am running mailman from git, but about version 3.1 and use postfix. I find lots of things in the bounceevents table. Is there any way to find out more on these events? I probably can configure postfix to send listname-bounce@domain to an admin adress. Or for that matter hack mailman to send it to the correct admin. Also the DKIM mitigation does not seem to detect DKIM domains. If I force the mitigation for all mails it works but that of course has annoying consequences although mostly cosmetic. This has caused quite a number of bounces for my lists (as well as being temporarily banned by at least Microsoft). I'm thinking of upgrading to a later version. What is the latest version that might be a good idea to install today? I install from gitlab. cheers // David

Moderation requests, dash-board link in notification?
by Claus-Justus Heine Sept. 2, 2017

Hi there, I suppose this is rather a simple configuration issue. However, with Mailman v2 the moderator or list-owner was supplied with a link to the admin-site in the moderation-reminder. I suppose that this can also be very easily configured with v3? Of course, I know where my amdin-site is, but I am planning to deploy mm3 in a setting with educated dummy users which probably would rather first ask and only try to find out by themselves if they cannot find someone to ask.

Funny responds to subscriptions emails

BTW, I also got the same confusing email when subscribing to mailman-users(a)mailman3.org (is attached). Can this be switched off?

Mailman3 Docker question and importing lists from MM2
by Andrew Hodgson Sept. 2, 2017

Sept. 2, 2017

Hi, Started experimenting with the Docker images at https://github.com/maxking/docker-mailman/. I had a question regarding the parameter: SERVE_FROM_DOMAIN. I want to use multiple domains, what is the best way to specify multiple domains in this environment variable? I tried it without the environment set, and also with some variables like: SERVE_FROM_DOMAIN=['lists.domain.com', 'lists.domain2.com'] and SERVE_FROM_DOMAIN="lists.domain1.com", "lists.domain2.com" However I still only get the example.com site. Furthermore, is there a recommended way to get data from MM2 (list configs and archives) into MM3? Thanks. Andrew.

Help request, almost got it going, but ....
by Claus-Justus Heine Sept. 2, 2017

Sept. 2, 2017

First: thanks for all those development work, I am aware of the fact that this is free software and most of the development probably happened in someones spare-time. I have some problems: - I tried to install mailman v3. "Read the (non) docs" was of little help, but I got to some partly success following the commands in the scripts in the docker image at https://github.com/maxking/docker-mailman Things seemed to work out, I generated a test-list "Playground" and now I am just in the progress to click through all the configuration options in the the postorius Web-GUI. So far so good Now I read the "Message Acceptance" tab AND here is the problem: Seemingly, at some point in the deep dungeons of the source code the "Acceptable aliases" Text-Box is not interpreted correctly. Specifically, at the start it contains the string [] When then changing something int the "Message Acceptance" tab, an error shows up in the web-page (but no-where in the logs) "An error occured: []" and the bogus [] is restored. I tried to dig into the source code, and well, the data source of the text-field is an array or list of acceptable email-adresses. But seemingly finally at some point in the source code an empty list is not converted to the empty string, but to the string []. I can get rid of the error message "An error occured: []" by inserting an email-at '@' at just some place in the input box, this yields (clicking "Save changes" again and againg ...): [u"[u'@']"] [u'[u\'[u"[u\\\'@\\\']"]\']'] [u'[u\'[u\\\'[u\\\\\\\'[u"[u\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'@\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\']"]\\\\\\\']\\\']\']'] and so on. Unfortunately, I did not find the location of this bug, although I was finally able to add some "foobar" string to the already bogus web-output. Any help would be appreciated. BTW: * where is the bug-tracker for mailman3? * The documentation is really, well, close to non existent. Personally, I think the name of the URL "read-the-docs" is almost cynical. Guess I give up on it, it just does not seem to be ready for production. This was (following the docker stuff at githb) with Pythong3: mailman==3.1.0 mailman-hyperkitty==1.1.0 Python2: mailmanclient==3.1.0 postorius==1.1.0 hyperkitty==1.1.1 django-mailman3==1.1.0 Here I realize a slight version difference between the hyperkitty stuff. But this is a bug in postorius. So what.

Acceptable aliases defaults to []
by Henrik Rasmussen Aug. 30, 2017

Aug. 30, 2017

* Docker-mail 0.1.1 * Mailman 3.1 * Postorius 1.1.1 * Hyperkitty 1.1.1 Minor issues: Settings -> Message Acceptance -> Acceptable aliases has a default of [] resulting in "An error occured: [u'[]']" when saving. This fiend should be empty by default or at least accept the default when saving. To me the description right under the Acceptable aliases field is not user friendly. It doesn't explain the purpose of the field, but is meant for the Mailman sysadmin, not the list admin who can't be expected to understand this. A much better description would be the ones used for MM2: * http://www.list.org/mailman-admin/node23.html * https://wiki.list.org/DOC/What%20does%20%22message%20has%20implicit%20desti… On a second note: Where I can change the field and message descriptions in MM3, like the /usr/lib/mailman/messages/[sprog]/LC_MESSAGES/mailman.po in MM2? -- Henrik Rasmussen <her(a)adm.ku.dk<mailto:her@adm.ku.dk>> Copenhagen, Danmark
