I'm new here and mostly lurking to simply try to understand more about MM3. At the risk of dragging down the very technical discussions I've read so far, here's a question for you.
We manage a MM3 list (list admin level only). I'd like to be able to offer subscribers the ability to take an RSS feed from our list and maybe feed a website page too. Our vendor uses Empathy (which I suspect some here are aware of). I understand that the HyperKitty interface is the "standard" web interface offering associated with MM3. Now I'm not a developer and I know little about how this all goes together so please bear with me.
I was pleasantly surprised to see that I could add this list to my Feedly reader. This gives me hope that an RSS feed is possible with our installation too. However, I was not successful adding an RSS feed for our list though. There could be a very simple answer for why it doesn't work (like the wrong URL, ...) but I suppose it may be more complicated too. I've made an inquiry to our vendor but I'm not sure an answer is forthcoming soon because of very unfortunate circumstances.
I wondered though if RSS capability is a function provided by the web interface (HyperKitty) or perhaps it's more at the MM3 level or maybe another app that provides that function?
Hyperkitty recently gained the ability of have RSS feeds for MailingLists, that feature hasn’t been released yet (1.3.5, release date is TBD!). It works on this list because we run the bleeding edge version from our source.
This is a functionality provided by Hyperkitty and not Mailman 3 Core. Core doesn’t store emails and is simply relaying them or sending it to archivers which store them.
