Import Archives using Docker Image
by brian＠emwd.com June 7, 2019

June 7, 2019

I want to test out importing a 2.1 archive into a Mailman 3.2 list. I am using maxking's docker images for MM3. How would I go about importing the mbox file? I don't think the following commands would work on a Docker installation of MM3: $ python manage.py hyperkitty_import -l foo-list(a)example.com $var_prefix/archives/private/foo-list.mbox/foo-list.mbox $ python manage.py update_index_one_list foo-list(a)example.com I am not sure how to go about doing this within Docker. Thanks for any assistance, Brian

Hyperkitty Authorization Required
by andrew.bernard＠gmail.com June 6, 2019

June 6, 2019

Nearly there configuring my first Mailman 3 installation with Postorius and Hyperkiity. This issue eludes me: When trying to start a new thread in the archive, we have: HyperKitty failure on https://list.jackrail.org/hyperkitty/api/mailman/archive: <html><title>Auth required</title><body> <h1>Authorization Required</h1></body></html> (401) I can access this URL just fine" https://list.jackrail.org/hyperkitty/api/ Where do we look to solve this issue?

by Cold Kayak June 6, 2019

Hi, it appears that cPanel is interested in supporting MailMan 3.X! See - https://features.cpanel.net/topic/upgrade-to-mailman-3-0#comment-54870 <https://features.cpanel.net/topic/upgrade-to-mailman-3-0#comment-54870> "We’re hoping to work with the Mailman folks at some point in the future to accomplish this goal." Hopefully this happens sooner than later. regards, Edmond

Changing default message limit (max_message_size)
by roger＠reasonal.com May 30, 2019

May 30, 2019

Right, me again. I'm so close to having what I need up and running ... but a showstopper is the max message size that triggers a moderate in it. 40kB these days is just way small ... unless you're a 1% using text-only email. So found this on list archive: https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/thread/… $ bin/mailman shell -l list(a)example.com // Welcome to the GNU Mailman shell // The variable 'm' is the list(a)example.com // mailing list m.max_message_size = nn // commit() Unfortunately this does not work in the containerised mailman. So I get the container ID and run: docker exec 3373d426996d /usr/local/bin/mailman shell -i test-list(a)iotcouncil.org.za (in the post by Mark it says "-l" but I get "unrecognized argument" -- I assume it should be -i for "interactive"? Either way, it fires up the mailman shell and then throws me straight out back to the command line: Welcome to the GNU Mailman shell The variable 'm' is the test-list(a)iotcouncil.org.za mailing list >>> [root@listman ~]# So that doesn't help...

Bug - if you change primary email address, you're "semi-subscribed"
by roger＠reasonal.com May 30, 2019

May 30, 2019

Subscribed to the list, sending mails worked. Changed primary email (my company email system adds branding crap that exceeded the 40k limit). Then mails to list simply vanished. Sent mail via UI, suddenly get a "welcome to list" and held message says "The message comes from a moderated member".

How to separate bans for sending emails to lists and subscribing to them
by Nathan Dixon May 29, 2019

May 29, 2019

Hi, Our requirements for using Mailman are that we can have non-members send an email to a list from any domain name, but only people who's email addresses match a list of specific domains should be able to actually subscribe to those lists. I can't seem to find any way of doing this. Any ideas? I have tried using the bans (global and on each list) but these appear to stop all subscriptions and emails being sent to or from a list if the address matches a ban. Having moderated list subscriptions seems to be the only workaround, but this wouldn't be great if we could automate it (we are currently using Listserv which does allow us to do this) Thank you, -- *Nathan Dixon* MEng Senior Software Architect

update_index_one_list in parallel?
by Szymon Sokół May 29, 2019

May 29, 2019

Hello, I am new to this list. Last week I upgraded my old Mailman 2.1 site (running since 2011) to Mailman 3.2.1; wasn't quite straightforward, and part of the blame goes to people who made the choice of using sqlite as default database backend for mailman3-full Debian package, but finally I have it running with PostgreSQL, which I should've been using from the beginning. Now, however, I have noticed that indexing my archives in hyperkitty (using "manage.py update_index_one_list" for each list in sequence) takes quite a lot of time while using only one CPU (out of 4). Hence my question - is it safe to run several such processes in parallel, and if so, will it have any benefits? I have no idea how locking on the database is done in this code, maybe I'll end up running the jobs in sequence anyway due to exclusive locks… Any informed answers will be appreciated.

What to backup?
by Alain Kohli May 28, 2019

Hi What exactly are we supposed to include in our mailman backups? Obviously the database, but are there any other files that should be included to make sure we can properly restore? Regards, Alain

Hyperkitty CPU usage
by Alain Kohli May 24, 2019

May 24, 2019

Hi I have hyperkitty running and noticed that the process 'python manage.py runjobs minutely' is running for over 70h now and is constantly using 100% of a CPU core. That can hardly be intended, but I don't know why it's doing that. As far as I could see, this job mainly updates the search index. Running 'python manage.py rebuild_index' only takes about an hour, though, so I don't see why this would take so much longer. The text search is not working in the first place, so that might be connected as well. I'm currently running the v1.2.2. Regards, Alain
