IMO post-installation docs for list admins would be a big help in Mailman3 adoption. I'm willing to help with this.
Thank you for being willing to contribute. I think the place for list admin docs would be in the https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman-suite-doc project which is the source for https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/. There is currently a userguide there at source/userguide.rst and referenced from source/index.rst. the addition of an adminguide.rst would be welcom if you want to work on that.
When I say "working": I'm looking to migrate Mailman2 mailing lists to Mailman3, but am struggling with even basic setup tasks before we attempt list migtration.
For example, on admin page I've set up two lists, one public and one private (each with unique list IDs), but neither appear in the site's list index.
Here are the steps to migrate a 2.1 list named alist@example.com
and
its archives.
run Mailman's bin/mailman create alist@example.com
follow that with
bin/mailman import21 alist@example.com
/path/to/mailman2.1/lists/alist/config.pck
That will create the list and import its members and settings.
To import archives run the Django admin command with arguments
hyperkitty_import -l alist@example.com
/path/to/mailman2.1/archives/private/alist.mbox/alist.mbox
And I don't know where to add list members.
For imported lists, they are already added, but for new lists, you can
add them in Postorius under Mass operations -> Mass subscribe or via the
bin/mailman commands addmembers
or syncmembers
. See
https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailman/en/latest/src/mailman/commands/do...
And clicking the site archives link throws this error:
django.urls.exceptions.NoReverseMatch: Reverse for 'hk_list_overview' with keyword arguments '{'mlist_fqdn': 'wheee'}' not found. 1 pattern(s) tried: ['archives/list/(?P<mlist_fqdn>[^/@]+@[^/@]+)/$']
Did you specify the list's fqdn as in https://www.example.com/archives/list/list@example.com/
