Import old mails into list
by franklin＠slat.org July 19, 2023

July 19, 2023

Hi, I just built a new mailman3 instance. I installed directly on Debian using mailman3-full and follow /usr/share/doc/mailman3/README.Debian to set up database/web. Then I'd like to import some old mail (in a mbox file) into this list. I searched for any documentation but all I got is Import list data (from 2.1): https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailman/en/release-3.0/src/mailman/comma… How do I import an archive into a new mailing list: https://wiki.list.org/DOC/How%20do%20I%20import%20an%20archive%20into%20a%2… The first is import list data, not list contents (mails). The second is very old, written in 2007, and now I even can't find bin/arch commands. Also, this post in this mailing list: https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/message… Which nobody replied yet. And when I tried `django-admin hyperkitty_import` it even told me "Unknown command: 'hyperkitty_import'". Could anyone please tell me how to import old mails from mbox file into a new mailing list? Thanks, Franklin

Configure administrative users via command line?
by kjohnson＠eclypse.org July 18, 2023

July 18, 2023

I recently migrated a mailing list from Mailman 2.x to Mailman 3.x. Sending messages to and receiving messages from the list seems to work well. The web interface archives seem to be working well. Xapian is configured as the search engine. With only 60K some messages, archive search seems very fast. How can I configure administrative users via command line? I need to process a moderation request. I have root access on the server. A pointer to the appropriate documentation would be more than welcome. Thank you to anyone who can provide help. Ken

where do I find the text of a bounce email ?
by Per Jessen July 1, 2023

July 1, 2023

All, I am trying to figure why a particular outbound message was bounced, so I'm looking for the text of the NDR that was sent - where do I find that ? Fyi, the outbound message was accepted by the first relay, and then presumably later bounced by the actual recipient server (Office365). Any and all hints much appreciated. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (4.6°C) Member, openSUSE Heroes

Viewing/editing bounce score/status in Postorius

Is this possible? As of 1.3.2 I can't find it. Perhaps it's in a newer version? I'm working on upgrading. Thanks! -- Tom Smyth (he/him)

Hyperkitty list overview error: thread matching query does not exist
by Darren Hart June 29, 2023

June 29, 2023

When attempting to visit the hyperkitty archives list overview for one of my two lists: Https://lists.mydomain.com/hyperkitty/list/mylist@mydomain.com/ The area where the threads should appear shows the loading spinner (but the activity summary bar chart and most active posters post counts do eventually load). The following appears in /var/log/mailman3/web/mailman-web.log: ERROR 2022-05-23 17:50:50,201 1694 django.request Internal Server Error: /hyperkitty/list/mylist(a)mydomain.com/posted-to Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/django/core/handlers/exception.py", line 34, in inner response = get_response(request) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/django/core/handlers/base.py", line 115, in _get_response response = self.process_exception_by_middleware(e, request) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/django/core/handlers/base.py", line 113, in _get_response response = wrapped_callback(request, *callback_args, **callback_kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/hyperkitty/lib/view_helpers.py", line 135, in inner return func(request, *args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/hyperkitty/views/mlist.py", line 251, in overview_posted_to for thread in mlist.recent_threads: File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/hyperkitty/models/mailinglist.py", line 142, in recent_threads return self.cached_values["recent_threads"]() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/hyperkitty/models/common.py", line 59, in __call__ return self.get_or_set(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/hyperkitty/models/mailinglist.py", line 281, in get_or_set return [Thread.objects.get(pk=pk) for pk in thread_ids] File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/hyperkitty/models/mailinglist.py", line 281, in <listcomp> return [Thread.objects.get(pk=pk) for pk in thread_ids] File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/django/db/models/manager.py", line 82, in manager_method return getattr(self.get_queryset(), name)(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/django/db/models/query.py", line 406, in get raise self.model.DoesNotExist( hyperkitty.models.thread.Thread.DoesNotExist: Thread matching query does not exist. Viewing “All Threads” or Threads by month (any month) work as expected, displaying the appropriate threads. The archives for this list worked previously. There was an incident that resulted in DNS not working and the archiver failing for a few days. The mail that came in during that time does show up in the other views. The hyper kitty archives for a second list on this Mailman3 instance is working correctly. How can I fix this view of the archives? Or how can I get more information on what might be failing? Thanks, Darren

archives html user interface menu selection retention after refresh
by Ken Alker June 29, 2023

June 29, 2023

I have just started studying the archives feature and I've noticed that if I select "Most Active" in the top menu and then I refresh my browser, the refreshed screen jumps back to Recent after the refresh. In fact, if ANY of the five menu items across the top are selected and then a browser refresh is performed, the result is that one is always taken back to the Recent menu item. It was not apparent to me for a couple of days that this was happening and I'd convinced myself there was some bug in the Recent vs. Most Active lists because the Most Active list changed entirely after I did a refresh, when, in fact, I was then viewing the Recent list again. Confusing. Is there some way that whatever menu item was being viewed before a refresh could be retained so that the same menu item is shown after a refresh? Thinking this through even further, I suppose a side-affect of this request could be that visiting the same page much later (ie. not immediately after a refresh) may result in the page NOT defaulting to the Recent menu item any longer (unless once could clear the "last menu item" memory when the viewer moves AWAY from or closes the page). I don't have enough familiarly with the interface to suggest if this would be a bad side-effect, or good, but would this, indeed become a side-affect that would have to be thought through?

How do I specify the TCP port number for Postgresql?
by kjohnson＠eclypse.org June 28, 2023

June 28, 2023

The mailman.cfg file on the system I am working on includes this line: url: postgres://mailman3:mailman3:@localhost/mailman3 This works fine as long as the postgresql server is at the default port number of 5432. How do I specify a different TCP port number? My guess is that a change to this line is needed, but unfortunately, it is not obvious to me how to make that change, and I have been unable to find this information in the mailman3 documentation or in a previous mailing list post. Feel free to point me at the documentation or post that I have overlooked. Thanks, Ken

Archive date/time vs elapsed time
by Mark June 28, 2023

June 28, 2023

Hi In the archive's "Recent", "Most active" etc displays, the date and time of each post is shown. However, when viewing by "Thread" listing, each post shows the elapsed time since it was posted ie. the number of days, hours since it was posted (eg. 1 day, 2 hours). Is it possible to set Hyperkitty to display the "Thread" listing with the date/time in place of that elapsed time? Thanks Mark

Postorius claims 2 messages held when there are none - out of sync
by Ken Alker June 27, 2023

June 27, 2023

When I view a list via Postorius the "Held Messages" menu item has an inverse-red-"2" next to it, as if there are two held messages. There are, in fact, no messages in "/opt/mailman/mm/var/queue/*" (assuming the held messages should be in "pipeline" subdirectory). When I click on "Held Messages" I get "Something went wrong" followed by "HTTP Error 500: {"title": "500 Internal Server Error"}". How do I fix this?
