default language ignored
Hi,
one last question for now: how do switch the language of the mails sent by mailman? I have this in my configuration, but without effect:
[language.de] charset: iso-8859-1 [language.de] description: German [language.de] enabled: yes
[mailman] default_language: de
Is it also possible to change the language for a single list?
Greetings,
Marc

It has no effect because there are as yet no translations in Mailman 3. You need to create templates in the desired language. See <http://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/mailman/rest/docs/templates.html>
That refers to setting URLs for templates which does work, but the easiest way is to put them in the default search path in Mailman's file hierarchy at $var-dir/templates/. Sitewide ones in $var-dir/templates/site/, Domain specific in $var-dir/templates/domains/ and list specific ones in $var-dir/templates/lists/.
For example, a list specific, English language regular (non-digest) message footer might go in $var-dir/templates/lists/mymaillist.example.com/en/list:member:regular:footer
Is it also possible to change the language for a single list?
Yes, although that is not yet exposed in Postorius. The list has a preferred_language attribute which you can set via REST or 'mailman withlist' aka 'mailman shell'.
