Re-send subscription response and file permission error in queue
A user sent subscription request to the ..-join@ address of a list. Email domain wasn't set up properly, so response got rejected. Now, if the user tries to send another request, no reponse comes back. In the log I find a python stack trace saying subscription already pending.

Furthermore I am getting a permission denied error in the attempt of shunting the message, which I don't quite understand because the folder has user list group list and 700 mode:

How can I remove the pending subscription, or re-send the response email?
And what could be the cause of the permission error?
Using mailman 3.1.1

I'll look at this when I get some time. I'm still catching up after being off line for 12 days.

In Postorius, pull down Subscription Requests and select Pending Confirmation and delete the request.
And what could be the cause of the permission error?
Mailman can't read the /var/lib/mailman3/queue/command/1599553789.306307+6fee74af69263553b5ffd0e73cc095ab651bd855.pck file. This is strange since it wrote it, but check the modes and user/group of all the directories in the path and the file itself.
Could it be a SELinux or apparmor issue?

This exception should also send a response to the user's email saying "User <user@example.com has a pending subscription for list@example.net"
Was this sent?
To fix,
How can I remove the pending subscription, or re-send the response email?
In Postorius, pull down Subscription Requests and select Pending Confirmation and delete the request.

The cause probably was that I was using with nginx, and set up nginx with default www user, conflicting with the user mailman-web was running. I got lost in the pieces that had to fit together.
By the way, I never got notification about this reply by email.

You have email delivery disabled and you read and post from HyperKitty. This is fine, but there are no push notifications from HK about activity in threads you are involved in.
There are indications in the summaries that a thread has messages you haven't read, but you have to look.
