Thanks. Applying this patch makes it work. Now I've got a different problem, though. I can't get it to connect to Postfix for sending emails it appears. After I created a superuser account using
$ python manage.py createsuperuser
as described on <http://postorius.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setup.html>, I tried to login using this credentials into Postorius. It then reported it sent a confirmation email to me (for an account I created on commandline?!), but Postfix' logs reveal that it didn't; there's not even a sign of an attempted delivery in /var/log/mail.log. I've configured the Postfix configuration in mailman.cfg like this:
[mta]
incoming: mailman.mta.postfix.LMTP
outgoing: mailman.mta.deliver.deliver
lmtp_host: 127.0.0.1
lmtp_port: 8024
smtp_host: localhost
smtp_port: 25
configuration: python:mailman.config.postfixas was outlined on <http://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/mailman/docs/mta.html>.
mailman-suite's settings.py contains:
# Change this when you have a real email backend
EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend'
EMAIL_HOST = 'localhost'
EMAIL_PORT = 25which was described on <http://docs.list.org/en/latest/config-web.html>.
For completeness, the following is in Postfix' main.cf, but is not the cause of the problem as it affects the incoming direction, whereas I refer to the outgoing one:
transport_maps = hash:/home/mailman/var/data/postfix_lmtp
local_recipient_maps = hash:/home/mailman/var/data/postfix_lmtpI failed to locate any kind of logging information about the failed email, so I don't even know where I should start looking for the problem. var/logs/smtp.log is empty in the mailman directory, and likewise is logs/mailmansuite.log in the mailman-suite_project directory.
That being said, the enormous number of configuration files to consider and dozens of cross-references to other pages in the docs make the installation guide hard to follow; it also lacks logical structure in my opinion, when it refers to parts of the configuration which are later explained. For someone like me who never programmed a Django application (Ruby dev) this is all pretty cryptic. Especially, that some parts of information are on <http://docs.list.org/en/latest/index.html> whereas other parts are scattered over readthedocs.io makes it very complicated.
