Dear list,
currently, when I create a new mailing list with MM3 the value for "Archive policy" is always set to "Public archives". I'd like to change the default value for "Archive policy" to "Do not archive this list". How can I do this? In Debian 12 I find in </usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/postorius/forms/list_forms.py>:
mlist_properties = ['archivers']
archive_policy_choices = (
('public', _('Public archives')),
('private', _('Private archives')),
('never', _('Do not archive this list')),
)
archive_rendering_mode_choices = (
('text', _('Plain text')),
('markdown', _('Markdown text')),
)
archive_policy = forms.ChoiceField(
choices=archive_policy_choices,
widget=forms.RadioSelect,
label=_('Archive policy'),
help_text=_('Policy for archiving messages for this list'),
)
but have no idea how to change the settings here. Your help is very appreciated.
Best regards, Markus Grandpré
