Hello. Newbie to mailman here. I tried out mailman3 today. My setup is
- mailman3 suite using the docker-compose file from asynchronous.io
- exim4 on the local machine and configuring it as smarthost using mailgun smtp server
The emails to the mailing list are received by the subscribers, but the autoresponse is not being received by the sender (who is not from the subscribers list). I'm not sure if the problem is from mailman-core, settings from mailman-web, or from exim.
The setting for autoresponse to posters is set to yes, with some text to be sent in the autoresponse message. The autoresponse grace period is set to "0d60.0s" (I was unable to set to "0" or "negative" due to error saying something like "could not update parameter") The "Acknowledge posts" in the "global mailman settings" is set to "yes". The "Acknowledge posts" in the list-based preferences is also "yes".
Here are the exim logs after I send the email from the non-subscriber to the mailing list

- Is the signature verification failure due to mailman-core trying to send the autoresponse outgoing message?
At first, I thought that the DKIM signature verification caused Exim to be dropping the autoresponse.
So I set DISABLE_DKIM_VERIFY=true
in exim, but still no autoresponse.
Here are the exim logs after the sender sends the email

- is my understanding correct in reading these logs that there is nothing here about an autoresponse?
