Sometimes when I reboot the machine, I experience that mailman doesn't start because the files /opt/mailman3/mm/var/locks/master.lck* isn't deleted during shutdown. Maybe one way to solve this could be to use ExecStartPre directive in the systemd service to remove the lock files. What's the best practice to solve this problem?
You can add --force to the ExecStart command in your service file.
BTW I've noticed that doing
systemctl stop mailman3takes a very long time, 45 secs. or something like that.
This is because it waits for all the runners to exit and bounce runner in particular sleeps for (default) 15 seconds.
