For Docker:

just use the README on https://github.com/maxking/docker-mailman ; this should be enough for a basic setup.

Eventually, you'll need to add some things to

core/mailman-extra.cfg :

[mailman] site_owner: help@elternserver.de SMTP_MAX_RCPTS = 1

VERP_CONFIRMATIONS = Yes VERP_PASSWORD_REMINDERS = Yes VERP_PERSONALIZED_DELIVERIES = Yes VERP_DELIVERY_INTERVAL = 1 # [devmode] # enabled: yes # recipient: you@somewhere.com # # extra local settings for mailmen [mta] # NullMTA is just implementing the interface and thus satisfying Mailman # without doing anything fancy # outgoing: mailman.mta.null.NullMTA smtp_user: your_auth@your_MTA smtp_pass: supersecretpassword smtp_verify_hostname: yesorno smtp_secure_mode: starttls # or whatever

# [logging.debug] [logging.smtp] level: warn

also,

web/settings_local.py needs  tweaking in some cases; the DJANGO_ALLOWED_HOSTS come from my docker-compose.yml

import os

# see https://github.com/maxking/docker-mailman/issues/548 django_allowed_hosts = os.environ.get('DJANGO_ALLOWED_HOSTS') if django_allowed_hosts: ALLOWED_HOSTS = django_allowed_hosts.split(':')

MAILMAN_WEB_SOCIAL_AUTH = [] SOCIALACCOUNT_PROVIDERS = { } DEBUG = False # see https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/-/issues/957 DEFAULT_AUTO_FIELD='django.db.models.AutoField'

HAYSTACK_CONNECTIONS = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'xapian_backend.XapianEngine', 'PATH': "/opt/mailman-web-data/fulltext_index", }, }

Hi Jörg,

Kindly share the link to the HOWTO, which you use to setup everything. I just need to test. Perhaps I can use docker on Windows, no?

I have a successful installation using docker, just updated to the
most
recent version - it runs along quite some other docker containers, so
there is a benefit when I want to switch machines.
