Bounce counter visibility for List Admins
As you may know, we use MM3 but the Affinity/Empathy flavor and we only have List Administrator using the Postorious/Affinity. Unlike many here, we have no access to any server-based files.
Can someone tell me if Postorious gives list administrators visibility into the bounce counters? While List Admins get to set various bounce counters we have no visibility of those counters until, all of a sudden, an entire source of subscribers hits the bounce threshold and gets bounced off the list. It would be really nice to be able to see the bounce counters and possibly head off trouble before users/subscriber mail hosts. It can serve as an effective early warning system that something is wrong.
Assuming Postorious cannot, is there another way List Admins can inspect bounce counters? Email command?
Thanks - Steve

User's bounce scores are not available in REST so neither Affinity nor Postorius has access to them.

In the next release of Mailman core (3.3.5), lists will have a
bounce_notify_owner_on_bounce_increment
setting which if True, will
send to the list admins a notice including the triggering DSN when a
user's bounce score is incremented. This setting will also be exposed in
Postorius 1.3.5.

That’s great news. This is a pain point for me as well.
