Unwanted E-mail to Maillists Submitted via Postorius Interface
by matthew＠alberti.us Aug. 28, 2021

Aug. 28, 2021

Hi Everyone, I’ve seen a recent uptick in SPAM messages making it into mailing lists. Looking at the raw, it seems that the e-mails are being submitted thru the Postorius/Hyperkitty “Start a New Thread” interface. Is there a way to turn that off? We would want people to only be able to post via e-mail. Part of the problem is that our anti-spam system RSPAMD trusts the mailman-web IP… so it doesn’t scan things originating from there.. ☹ Another uestion: Is there a way to implement captcha, or is there a recommended gate that can be put in the signup process? Apparently bots are finding a way thru the signup process, and then sending messages to the list via the Postorius web interface. There seems to be a Django plugin for it; but it appears the Mailman code would have to be adjusted to implement it. I’m open to any suggestions, including on places to check for misconfiguration. 😊 Thanks. - Matt Alberti

docker mailman-core mailman3 image not responding on port 8024
by bob B Aug. 25, 2021

Aug. 25, 2021

Ok, I took a step back and started fresh... So the issue appears to be that mailman-core docker image is not replying on port 8024. I did a packet capture and it shows (172.23.01 is the gateway for the docker network on the host, 172.23.03 is the IP of mailman-core when I did the capture) *************************************** 1 2021-08-16 14:15:14.865053 172.23.0.1 172.23.0.3 TCP 74 34066 → 8024 [SYN] Seq=0 Win=29200 Len=0 MSS=1460 SACK_PERM=1 TSval=985607751 TSecr=0 WS=128 2 2021-08-16 14:15:14.865084 172.23.0.3 172.23.0.1 TCP 54 8024 → 34066 [RST, ACK] Seq=1 Ack=1 Win=0 Len=0 *************************************** The above show the docker host sending/relaying mail to mailman-core, but mailman-core does not acknowledge on port 8024.

Error on timeout vs retry values
by Robert Moody Aug. 25, 2021

Aug. 25, 2021

Hi everyone, I have recently setup a new mailman3 service using the venv method. Everything is functionally working however I keep getting an error sent to the mailman email every min which I can not seem to figure out why. /opt/mailman/venv/lib/python3.7/site-packages/django_q/conf.py:142: UserWarning: Retry and timeout are misconfigured. Set retry larger than timeout, failure to do so will cause the tasks to be retriggered before completion. See https://django-q.readthedocs.io/en/latest/configure.html#retry for details. See https://django-q.readthedocs.io/en/latest/configure.html#retry for details.""" I have edited the timeout and retry values in the /opt/mailman/venv/lib/python3.7/site-packages/django_q/conf.py file and restarted both mailman and mailman-web however this still keeps repeating. Any ideas? Regards, Robert -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Mailman backend maintenance task
by eugenio.jordan＠esa.int Aug. 24, 2021

Aug. 24, 2021

Dear all. My apologies if the answer to this question is obvious, but I am pretty newbie for 3 version, and to be very honest I haven't had enough time yet to have a deep look into the documentation. Our customer is currently using PostGRESQL as backend, and we would like to perform some maintenance tasks, namely running vacuum full, or at least trying to rebuild hyperkitty_email primary key related index. We have been asked on the real impact of putting in place such initiative. Though the latter is related to archiving, I haven't found a way to stop just Hyperkitty or Django related processes other than stopping Mailman's core, hence preventing mails addressed to distribution lists from being delivered, could you please confirm if I am correct? Regarding the former, as far as I have read, the "mappings" lists -> addresses are stored just in the database, so if we run some kind of procedure or task like vacuum which will lock exclusively tables, or want anyway to have the database stopped for a cold backup or whatever, Mailman willl not work, that is, again the mails addressed to the distribution lists will not be delivered. Will you please confirm this point, too? Really wish we had a testing environment to have been able to check this ourselves and not bothering others, but unfortunately we lack it, and we need to provide an answer as soon as possible. Thanks a lot for your time. Best regards.

Installing mailman3 from Ubuntu 20.04 repository
by Andy Cravens Aug. 24, 2021

Aug. 24, 2021

I’m testing Mailman3 on Ubuntu 20.04 and installing the packages from the default Ubuntu repo. I’m not sure I’ll perform the install this way once we move to production. I don’t know what group is responsible for keeping the Mainlam3 package in the Ubuntu repository up to date but I’d like to find out how committed that groups is to keeping the package current. We patch often and it would be convenient if the Mailman3 package is kept updated and current. If there is going to be some significant lag time I may decide to install manually when we go to production. Any thoughts on this? — Andy

How to change the language in mailman3
by maszap＠tin.it Aug. 19, 2021

Aug. 19, 2021

Hi everyone, from here: https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/gnu-mailman/hyperkitty/it/ I see that there is a way to change the language of mailman3, postorius and hyperkitty But I don't find how. I read that you can download the .po files for the chosen language, but I didn't understand how to use these files. Could anyone show me how to do it? Thank you in advance. Max

Error when disabling signup
by Rainer Herbst Aug. 17, 2021

Aug. 17, 2021

Dear all, over the last couple of weeks, I have installed and configured mailman3 using the docker containers. It took me some time, but now it works quite well. At last, I wanted to disable the sign-up because only LDAP users should be able to login. As described in django_mailman3/views/user_adapter.py, I added the following line to my settings_local.py: ACCOUNT_ADAPTER = 'django_mailman3.views.user_adapter.DisableSignupAdapter' After that, an error is thrown: ModuleNotFoundError at /accounts/login/ No module named 'django_mailman3.views.user_adapter' What could be the reason for that and how to solve it? Thanks in advance!

Mailman3 Issue with Sending Mail to Yahoo/AOL
by chris＠zimmerman.to Aug. 11, 2021

Aug. 11, 2021

Hi everyone. I have a dedicated Ubuntu box that is running mailman3. I have a single email list on it. The subscriber base is about 350 users. There is a good chunk of these users that are aol.com or yahoo.com users. I've been getting complaints from the Yahoo people that mail is delayed at times, or messages that come out of order. Looking at the mailq on the box, I can see there are plenty of emails stuck in the queue. I have all sorts of messages like this ... -Queue ID- --Size-- ----Arrival Time---- -Sender/Recipient------- 3576C540CB4 9917 Tue May 11 11:27:13 pcho-bounces(a)pchochat.com (host mta6.am0.yahoodns.net[67.195.204.74] said: 452 Too many recipients tnmpmscs (in reply to RCPT TO command)) <removed list of email addresses> (host mta6.am0.yahoodns.net[67.195.204.74] said: 421 [IPTS04] Messages from 74.112.73.65 temporarily deferred due to unexpected volume or user complaints - 4.16.55.1; see https://postmaster.verizonmedia.com/error-codes (in reply to end of DATA command)) <removed list of email addresses> 10932540D16 32765 Tue May 11 18:34:13 pcho-bounces(a)pchochat.com (host mta6.am0.yahoodns.net[67.195.228.111] said: 421 4.7.0 [TSS04] Messages from 74.112.73.65 temporarily deferred due to unexpected volume or user complaints - 4.16.55.1; see https://postmaster.verizonmedia.com/error-codes (in reply to MAIL FROM command)) <removed list of email addresses> (host mx-biz.mail.am0.yahoodns.net[67.195.204.83] said: 421 4.7.0 [TSS04] Messages from 74.112.73.65 temporarily deferred due to unexpected volume or user complaints - 4.16.55.1; see https://postmaster.verizonmedia.com/error-codes (in reply to MAIL FROM command)) <removed list of email addresses> (host mx-aol.mail.gm0.yahoodns.net[67.195.228.84] said: 421 4.7.0 [TSS04] Messages from 74.112.73.65 temporarily deferred due to unexpected volume or user complaints - 4.16.55.1; see https://postmaster.verizonmedia.com/error-codes (in reply to MAIL FROM command)) (host mta6.am0.yahoodns.net[67.195.228.111] said: 421 4.7.0 [TSS04] Messages from 74.112.73.65 temporarily deferred due to unexpected volume or user complaints - 4.16.55.1; see https://postmaster.verizonmedia.com/error-codes (in reply to MAIL FROM command)) <removed list of email addresses> So it seems that Yahoo/AOL keeps detecting my mailman3 server as either spam, sending too much email, or too many recipients. This email server is for our neighborhood community. Its moderated to join, and we know every single user on this list. We know it's not being reported as spam by our users. Anyone anyone shed some light on how to appropriately solve this issue?
