[MM3-users] Cannot setup announce-only mailing list

by Alberto Granzotto

Dear all, I don't understand how to set up an "announce only" mailing list using Postorius Version 1.2.4. What I do is the following: - Click on "Create New List" - From "List Style", select "Announce only mailing list style." - Fill all other fields in the form - Click "Create list" At this point people can subscribe to the newly created announce mailing list. If they add themselves they end up in "List Members", and if they email the announce mailing list, their email is relayed to all other members, just like a normal mailing list :/ Moreover, subscribers get this message, inviting them to post to the announce only mailing list: > Welcome to the "Test-announce" mailing list! > > To post to this list, send your email to: > > test-announce(a)lists.dist0rtion.com Of course, I want to keep this mailing list "read only" for members, and I want only selected people to post to that mailing list. Any idea on how to achieve that? Best, Alberto

[MM3-users] Help! Duplicate DKIM key

by Jose Bernal

Hi all, I'm having *sudden* issues with our SMTP server (Amazon SES) erroring out while trying to send from our most active Mailman3 mailing list (~1,000 subscribers; modest Mailman3 (v 3.3.3) installation (10+ lists, Ubuntu). Here is the message. We've got several thousand log entries like this now: *554 Transaction failed: Duplicate header 'DKIM-Signature'* Mar 10 08:31:10 mail1 postfix/smtp[217753]: 738B53F15E: to=< brian(a)brianmichaelslaw.com>, relay=xxx.org[44.225.xxx.xx]:587, delay=37, delays=2/35/0.16/0.13, dsn=5.0.0, status=bounced (host said: 554 Transaction failed: Duplicate header 'DKIM-Signature'. (in reply to end of DATA command)) As we don't do any DKIM key signing on the related Postfix machine I've opened up a case with Amazon. However, if there is a troubleshooting I should adopt on this issue with regard to Postfix/Mailman I'd like to know what your recommendations are, or what steps I can follow to better help the vendor ensure that this issue isn't coming from either the Postfix machine or the Mailman machine. Much thanks, --------------------- José Bernal Web/Application Engineer

However, I'm an apache guy, trying to re-educate myself on nginx. OK, here's the result of changing mailman-hyperkitty.cfg from `http(s)://host.example.com/hyperkitty/` to `http(s)://host.example.com/hyperkitty/api/` Yes, if I open things from the web browser, I do get the HyperKitty API doc. With what follows below, I guess it's a timeout: Processing a message takes longer than rendering a HTML document.

That corresponds to the nginx logfiles: access.log: [IP4] - - [22/Jan/2022:20:26:29 +0000] "POST /hyperkitty/api/api/mailman/archive?key=6xpENHLEHQ0kD53vXt5RpKzPDOsKbcN9 HTTP/1.1" 404 1342 "-" "python-requests/2.25.1" 9 And error.log: 2022/01/22 20:26:29 [error] 128720#128720: *4375 readv() failed (104: Connection reset by peer) while reading upstream, client: [IP4], server: [FQDN], request: "POST /hyperkitty/api/api/mailman/archive?key=[key] HTTP/1.1", upstream: "uwsgi://unix:/run/mailman3-web/uwsgi.sock:", host: "[FQDN]" So it all seems consistent in a way, except that error.log suggests that this could be a timeout. Question: What happens if nginx issues a 403 "Forbidden" in that spot? - Does the mailman system as a whole (whichever subsystem is responsible...) _assume_ that there is an error with MAILMAN_ARCHIVER_FROM (as suggested in the mailman3 logfile) - so other possible reasons for 403 are theoretically possible, or are other possible reasons for 403 explicitly (e.g. a timeout) ruled out somewhere, somehow? Following that, I've set the timeout in nginx to five minutes, but it doesn't change anything. I'm sorry that I can't contribute any news. I guess I'll start over, using pip and virtualenv for installation. Thank you for your help!

Postorius displays only plain text of a held message with HTML and images shown as attachments, and clicking an HTML attachment link will download the HTML and what happens depends on the browser, but if there are image parts referenced in the HTML, they will be separate links to download and won't render along with the HTML. However, is the list is set to notify the moderators of held messages, the notice will imclude the entire message which should render properly in the moderator's MUA. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

I think if you are *moderator* you should be able to see the Subscribers list, but maybe you need to be *list owner*. You definitely do not need to be *server admin* to see the Subscribers list. I'm not sure if the *server admin* has a way to see a sitewide Users list (other than using the mailman command line tool or directly from the database). Is it possible that you have multiple logons on the server, one of which you have subscribed to lists and the other is a user with administrative privileges? I know that burns me regularly. Steve

No, it has to be something about the message, because looks like Mailman is throwing exceptions when it tries to turn the anonymized email.Message Python object into an RFC 822 message it can send to the MTA.

[MM3-users] Unknown templates being used

by Tom Stoddard

I'm a list owner who has recently (within the last week) had my lists migrated from mailman 2 to mailman 3. The UI that we are using is Affinity. I've reviewed all of the list templates and begun to customize some of them. My issue is that I'm receiving messages that don't match any of the templates. Here is an example of one that I just received this morning. (The x's are inserted by me. The actual message provided valid addresses.) The xxxxxxxxxx(a)xxxxxxxxxx.org list has 1 moderation requests waiting. Held Subscriptions: User:xxxxxxxxxx@gmail.com Please attend to this at your earliest convenience. When I log in to review the request it appears to be a subscription request awaiting approval. I had previously modified the "Moderator Approval Subscription" template, which is what I would expect to have received in this circumstance. I administer several lists and have received some messages that do use the newly modified template so I assume I did it correctly. Any idea where the template for this message came from? Thanks!

I will check with "mailman create" and the --domain argument. Part of adding a new list is specifying the domain. If it's one of the existing domains, i.e., ml.franceserv.fr, or ml.viticreation.fr, that's all that needs to be done. e.g. `mailman create newlist(a)ml.franceserv.fr`. If it's a new domain, you need to add the domain to the django_site table perhaps directly or via the django admin UI and then after `mailman create newlist(a)new.domain` you may need to edit the domain via Postorius' domains view to specify the correct Web Host. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

The problem may also be that Google has decided that your existing list has a bad reputation, that is, it had too many posts rejected in the past. The new list doesn't have that problem. The problem that mailing lists face with the biggest email providers is that they don't have acceptance policies any more because they use algorithmic reputation engines. *They* don't know why your email was rejected. (Truth be told, none of us do since we use Bayesian spam filters. But at least if you use SpamBayes you know what features are being evaluated. Machine learning algorithms use "features" that are too tiny to be connected to spam except with big data.)

Some remote user has requested `https://lists.domedoman.ie/archives/?sort=active"'!` The `"'!` appended to the sort=active query fragment caused the error. This sort of thing happens when bots and script kiddies crawl your web site. You can find the request in your web server logs for more information about where it came from, but the bottom line is this will happen from time to time and it's not an indication that anything is broken.

Markus Grandpré writes: > When migrating the lists and archives from Mailman 2.1 to Mailman > 3, the e-mail templates were obviously not migrated. Which templates? Headers and footers are in the database, and they should be migrated. The standard templates for autoreplies, moderator notifications, and so on will have versions appropriate for Mailman 3, and as far as I know all of the languages standard in Mailman 2 have been translated to Mailman 3, or the Mailman 2 version crudely adapted to Mailman 3. Do you mean custom templates (such as moderator noifications) that overwrote stock templates in the Mailman 2 installation? I would think you would have to copy those by hand, because the upgrade process would not know that they're customized, and would just assume the new installed versions are good for you. I'm pretty sure you can copy them to a different place that has higher precedence in the search path so you don't have to worry about them being overwritten by upgrades.

[MM3-users] Prometheus mailman_exporter

by Ruth Ivimey-Cook

Folks, I have recently been playing with Prometheus metrics, and having now coded a mailman3 Prometheus exporter in python I thought I'd mention here that it exists. It's not fancy and there is more to do. It works using the rest api. Source available at https://github.com/rivimey/mailman3_exporter Metrics exposed: 'mailman_up' (does the API /system/versions return http 200) and 'mailman_queues' (queue lengths for each queue, plus 'status' for the http status code of that query) Suggestions for other metrics would be interesting if accompanied with info on how to extract it. I'm currently contemplating including the number of 'to be moderated' messages. It would be possible to include the number of lists or domains but not sure it's useful enough to be worth the cost of fetching it. It is passed the api auth data separately. It would be better to read it from mm config: is there existing code I can call?

As far as your EMWD migration from cPanel Mailman 2.1 to Mailman 3 is conerned, I think you'll find little if any change as far as email posting to the list and email from the list is concerned, but EMWD has their own proprietary web UI for list management and archiving, so the web UI at EMWD is quite different from that for this list.

I'd expect there to be a CPU spike in that case. There are things that can be done. One big performance killer is MTA recipient checks during SMTP from Mailman. Look too at the various hits at <https://wiki.list.org/?action=fullsearch&value=performance&titlesearch=Titl…>. These are written for older Mailman, but the MTA advice is relevant.

Because Mailman doesn't directly access DNS. As far as I know, there are only two pieces in Mailman core that indirectly access DNS. DMARC mitigations look up sending domain DMARC policy via the dnspython package <https://pypi.org/project/dnspython/> and if you have enabled ARC signing in Mailman via [ARC] enabled: yes it uses authheaders <https://pypi.org/project/authheaders/> I don't know what these packages might be looking at to see the old servers, but as far as I know, nothing else is doing DNS lookups.

There shouldn't be any, but if the issue is with accessing postorius templates, that might make it worse. If you want only the system default templates, you could do this database query to remove any non-defaults: DELETE FROM templates; That will ensure that you aren't accessing Postorius for any templates. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

Care to submit an MR? > > I'm afraid (u)WSGI, Django, and gunicorn are not technologies that I work with. It sounds as if hyperkitty is compiling the entire archive before sending the first byte. The gunicorn doc that you pointed to says Workers silent for more than this many seconds are killed and restarted. Setting it to 0 has the effect of infinite timeouts by disabling timeouts for all workers entirely. "Silent" sounds like the standard webserver "you have to push some bits, or we assume you're stuck". My understanding is that gunicorn is a Python persistence server that is run behind a webserver proxy. So the (proxy) webserver (apache, nginx, ...) timeouts also apply and would need to be increased. Might be interesting to try 0 (gunicorn) / 1200 (webserver) with your python-dev archive, time it and see how much (encoded) data is transferred... (I would expect most mailing list archives to compress nicely, though those with binary attachments wont.) But fiddling with timeouts is treating the symptom, not the root cause. The right solution is to stream, segment (or chunk) the output, because in the general case, no timeout is long enough. It'll always be possible to find an archive that's just one byte (or second) longer than any chosen timeout. (See the halting problem.) You want the timeout to catch a lack of progress, not total time that's a function of transaction size. (Webservers may also have limits on transaction size - e.g. mod_security, but they're only useful when the upper bound on a response is knowable.) Thus, the timeout(s) should be roughly independent of the archive size; on the order of time-to-first-byte (which ordinarily is longer than time between segments/chunks). Also note that streaming requires fewer server resources than compiling a complete archive before sending, since you don't need to create the entire archive in memory (or in a tempfile). You only need enough memory to efficiently buffer the file I/O and to contain the compression tables/output buffer. Except for trivial cases, this will be independent of the archive size. The only downside is that if the comm link is slow, you may hold a reader lock on the source data for longer than necessary with the current scheme. Seems as though this deserves an issue. I guess I could open one - but you have the experience/test cases.

The template you want is described in Postorius as [list.user.notice.rejected] Notice sent to a poster when their message has been rejected automatically You can set it in Postorius per list or per domain or you can set it sitewide by putting it in Mailman's var/templates/site/en/list.user.notice.rejected.txt and if you do that, be sure the Mailman user has access to read it. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

[MM3-users] Re: Easiest way to install a new mailman3 deployment?

by Andrew Hodgson

Hi, I completed this on a Debian Buster server instance during last year and have got some notes on the process. I decided to go down the venv route rather than use Docker, but I already had it up and running using the Docker instance on another machine. I found getting it up and running on Docker helped me understand how everything hung together, but ultimately I wanted to run it under a venv so I could understand it a bit more and also I wasn't using Docker in the rest of the environment on that server. I also got caught out earlier on with the Docker containers changing the search engine from Woosh to Xapian which is why I wanted more control over what was going on. Here is a copy of those notes for interest. I used package managers to provide PostgreSQL support as that was what the Docker install gave me to start with. I may have chosen another DB engine but as I was already using Postgres I stuck with that. I also installed Xapian using the package manager as well as Exim, Nginx, Sassc and Python using the package managers. I didn't install Memcached. I mainly followed the instructions at: https://wiki.list.org/DOC/Mailman%203%20installation%20experience My directory structure uses /opt/mailman as the base, the instructions on this web page use /opt/mailman/mm and I didn't have this extra subdirectory. I ensured this directory was owned by list:list. I installed my venv under /opt/mailman/venv choosing to copy over the existing distribution installed Python packages and installed the following packages via Pip after activating it: Upgrade packages that are already installed which need an upgrade to work with Mailman3: pip3 install -U pip zope.interface Get the rest installed: pip3 install mailman mailmanclient django-mailman3 mailman-hyperkitty hyperkitty postorius psycopg2-binary xapian-haystack This also installs Gunicorn which I use as the backend wsgi server. The reason I chose to use existing system packages as part of the venv is because I wanted to use the Xapian installation I had installed via system packages as I ran into issues installing it via Pip. In future I think I will try and install the PostgreSQL driver this way as well. Once deactivating the venv I recommend getting the directory structure and files copied to the right places from the links on the wiki, noting that in my cases I had to edit the files to change the relevant paths to suit my new layout, and also where necessary (Systemd units) change the user/group. . You should then run all the Mailman specific commands using these scripts in /opt/mailman/bin. I learnt the hard way that you will run into problems if you try and run Mailman from the venv directory as it will look for files in the wrong place and create data files in the wrong directory. As I went down this road my configuration files mailman.cfg and mailman-hyperkitty.cfg are actually located in /opt/mailman/etc but that isn't a requirement if you follow the wiki and use the scripts provided. I obtained manage.py, settings.py, urls.py and wsgi.py from the Gitlab Mailman-suite project instead of the wiki site to ensure I got the latest versions and put these files in /opt/mailman. Regarding /opt/mailman/bin/mailman-post/update, I removed the references to Memcached as I didn't use it. I also didn't symlink /opt/mailman/logs to /opt/mailman/var/logs as advised by the wiki but will do this on a reinstall. I generated a new Mailman PostgreSQL user and restored my existing database to the new server (which also upgraded the DB to a newer Postgresql version as the Docker-Compose from the Mailman Docker project uses an older Postgresql container). I copied the Mailman runtime files from the Mailman core container data volume to /opt/mailman/var. I generated a Hyperkitty API secret key and also a Django secret key. Taking the mailman.cfg file from the wiki as a base, I updated the following parts: [database] class: mailman.database.postgresql.PostgreSQLDatabase url: postgres://mailman:[password]@localhost/mailmandb [mailman] site_owner: mailman-owner(a)lists.domain.com [mta] incoming: mailman.mta.exim4.LMTP configuration: python:mailman.config.exim4 [archiver.hyperkitty] class: mailman_hyperkitty.Archiver enable: yes configuration: /opt/mailman/etc/mailman-hyperkitty.cfg In /opt/mailman/etc/mailman-hyperkitty.cfg add the following: [general] base_url: http://localhost:8000/hyperkitty/ api_key: [generated-hyperkitty-api-key] Using systemctl see if you can start Mailman and observe logs etc. In terms of the Django stuff you need to create /opt/mailman/settings-local.py which will be read in by the system and will overwrite the default settings in /opt/mailman/settings.py obtained from the Mailman-suite project. This directly configures the Django framework which the Mailman web components Postorius and Hyperkitty run under. Here is a outline copy of my file: import os BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)) SECRET_KEY = '[generated-django-secret-key]' MAILMAN_ARCHIVER_KEY = '[generated-hyperkitty-api-key]' DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL = 'mailman-owner(a)lists.domain.com' EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend' DEBUG = False USE_X_FORWARDED_HOST = True SECURE_PROXY_SSL_HEADER = ('HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO', 'https') ALLOWED_HOSTS = [ 'localhost', 'lists.domain.com' ] INSTALLED_APPS = ( # Copy the installed apps from the settings.py and remove the social provider logins you don't want to support. ) DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql_psycopg2', 'NAME': 'mailmandb', 'USER': 'mailman', 'PASSWORD': '[password]', 'HOST': 'localhost' } } HAYSTACK_CONNECTIONS = { 'default': { 'PATH': os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "fulltext_index"), 'ENGINE': 'xapian_backend.XapianEngine' }, } LOGGING = { # Copy the complete LOGGING section from settings.py and change the path as follows, if there is a way of just adding the relevant path override to this file let me know. I am doing this only because I didn't create a symlink for /opt/mailman/logs. 'version': 1, 'disable_existing_loggers': False, 'filters': { [...] } }, 'handlers': { 'mail_admins': { [...] }, 'file':{ 'level': 'INFO', 'class': 'logging.handlers.WatchedFileHandler', 'filename': os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'var/logs', 'mailmansuite.log'), 'formatter': 'verbose', }, 'console': { [...] }, }, 'loggers': { 'django.request': { [...] }, 'django': { [...] }, 'hyperkitty': { [...] }, 'postorius': { [...] }, }, 'formatters': { 'verbose': { [...] }, 'simple': { [...] }, }, } Try running /opt/mailman/bin/mailman-post-update and choose to rebuild indexes, see if the static files get saved to /opt/mailman/static and the search indexes get saved to /opt/mailman/fulltext_index. In my case I had plenty of indexing to do, not sure if these files are created on a green-field installation with nothing archived. This command will also populate the Postgresql database schema. See if the Systemd units for mailman-web and mailman-cluster come up. Observe logs. If everything ok the Gunicorn should be listening on localhost:8000. For Nginx integration I followed the wiki, only change I had to make was to send the host header to the backend server, here is a partial config file: server { server_name lists.domain.com; root /var/www/lists; access_log /var/log/nginx/lists-access.log; error_log /var/log/nginx/lists-error.log warn; listen [::]:443 ssl; # managed by Certbot listen 443 ssl; # managed by Certbot ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/lists.domain.com/fullchain.pem; # managed by Certbot ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/lists.domain.com/privkey.pem; # managed by Certbot include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf; # managed by Certbot ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem; # managed by Certbot location = /favicon.ico { log_not_found off; } location = /robots.txt { log_not_found off; } location / { proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host; proxy_pass http://localhost:8000/; } location /static { alias /opt/mailman/static; } } server { if ($host = lists.domain.com) { return 301 https://$host$request_uri; } # managed by Certbot listen 80; listen [::]:80; server_name lists.domain.com; return 404; # managed by Certbot } For Exim integration I followed to the letter the information here: https://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/mailman/docs/mta.html#exim Here is a Logrotate script which is not in the Mailman wiki: /opt/mailman/var/logs/*.log { missingok sharedscripts su list list postrotate /opt/mailman/bin/mailman reopen &>/dev/null || true if [ -r /opt/mailman/var/gunicorn.pid ]; then PID=`cat /opt/mailman/var/gunicorn.pid` kill -s USR1 $PID fi endscript } I have been running this setup since March 2020, I run around 10 lists on this server with around 10 mails per list per day. I actually had more issues when moving from Mailman2 to Mailman3 using the Docker containers and actually this process made me understand a lot more how everything hangs together and where to troubleshoot issues.

I had a very similar experience. I don't mean to knock the dev team; Mailman3 is an awesome tool that really meets a need. It is really much much more than a 'tool.' A very comprehensive software suite. For me, I ended up using the docker option on Ubuntu 20.04. My advice is to give up on the idea of using OS package managers. They just aren't current enough (certainly for Ubuntu LTS), or updated frequently enough, for the current development of Mailman3. Nothing but problems for me on Ubuntu, and Debian is about the same. Pypi, or installation in a virtualized environment, was equally challenging. I strongly recommend the docker installation method. It is not quite turnkey, but the documentation is close enough where it might 'just work' in your environment. I used MariaDB, and that introduced some challenges. If you are using postgre, postfix, and nginx, you are pretty close to a very easy installation. This list is very supportive, with very frequent responses from the core dev team. And there are guys like me who really struggled to get to a production instance.

The reset also failed with the error message that okay I have finished a few more steps on the way to containerized mailman ;-) The mailman-web container also needs the environment variables which tells mailman-core to use postfix on an other host for delvery. But still I can't recover a password. It always tells me "Diese E-Mail-Adresse ist keinem Konto zugeordnet" which means "This e-mail address is not assigned to any account". But when I now register I can see all the lists which I'm assigned to. So basically my problem was the missing environment variables > - MTA=postfix > - SMTP_HOST=mail I though it's only needed for the core container but they also need to be assigned to the web container.

The errors occurred because you had recently added tables in your database so they couldn't be added by the migrations. Dropping the tables was the correct thing to do. Did you ultimately successfully run all the migrations? When you say `hypperkitty never started`, what exactly does that mean? What happens when you try to access the archives?

[MM3-users] Re: Is there a way of recording bounce messages?

by Mohsen Masoudfar

I'm dealing with the same issue. Upon reviewing the logs, I've noticed a significant number of bounced emails for a particular mailing list. Gmail users have reported not receiving emails.

The issue is whatever DSN is returned to the list-bounces address is not attached to the notice sent to the list owner about the disable and it should be. Ok guys the plot thickens. Yesterday using the Mailman Shell I unbounced all the users on that list. We had a couple of messages yesterday and I also enabled the From munging for all messages sent to the list partway through those messages coming to the list. This morning we got all Gmail users bounced again, with no NDR attached to the message. However on one of the messages the NDR was attached, and so I'm going to send that to Mark separately. It looks like the NDR included the information for all the bouncing messages though, and that is probably because Mailman sends the messages to all users in one SMTP transaction.

The message has been delivered to the list, but it is not archived. The list post has an Archived-At: header with a URL, but the message isn't there at all. The only way to get it archived is to correct the message defect. Thus, I don't think it's good to just discard the message at that point. I'm fine with moving out of or not queueing it in the first place in var/archives/hyperkitty/spool, but I think it should be preserved somewhere, say in var/archives/hyperkitty/bad, and along with that, some kind of notice sent to the site admin so bad messages don't just accumulate without being seen. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

As discussed earlier in this thread, issues with unescaped 'From ' lines in message bodies exist because of the format of *nix mbox files where lines beginning with 'From ' are message separators by definition.

[MM3-users] Immediate notification to the administrator

by pau.baiges＠csuc.cat

Hello In Mailman, I have all the lists marked with the "Immediate notification to the administrator" option. Should list moderators receive immediate notification of new requests as well as daily reminders about the pending ones? List moderators (and list administrators) receive daily reminders of pending requests for approval, such as subscriptions to a moderated list or submissions that are held for some reason. Enabling this option results in immediate notifications being sent upon the arrival of new requests. When there's a message being held because it needs approval, it automatically sends an email to the list owners. However, it also states that it sends a daily reminder if the email remains unapproved, but it's not doing that. I'll show you how I have /etc/postfix/transport configured. I receive the first "owner" email, but not the daily one. list-owner(a)llistes.csuc.cat relay:[ip]:25 list(a)llistes.csuc.cat .. list-admin(a)llistes.csuc.cat ... list-bounces(a)llistes.csuc.cat ... list-confirm(a)llistes.csuc.cat ... list-join(a)llistes.csuc.cat ... list-leave(a)llistes.csuc.cat ... list-request(a)llistes.csuc.cat ... list-subscribe(a)llistes.csuc.cat ...

[...] I haven't seen it with replies, but rather mail clients recording every address they see into their address book, and then when the user of such a client wants to send new mail to someone they start typing that person's name and their mail client happily auto-completes it with the mailing list's address instead of the intended personal address. This is one of the reasons we don't use DMARC mitigations for most of our lists, and instead we just try to make Mailman avoid altering anything in the message headers or body that might invalidate DKIM signatures (so no changing From or Reply-To, no adding list-specific subject prefixes, no appending list unsubscribe info to the end of messages...). It's an unfortunate trade-off, but some of our users do tend to get confused by address book pollution. -- Jeremy Stanley

[MM3-users] Abusive user creation - ideas for mitigating

by Andy Smith

Hi, My mailman3.auth_users table contains 131 rows, of which 113 of them were created in the last week. All of these users have a 10 character long random string of lowercase letters as their chosen username. Their email addresses are all over the place. I only noticed this was happening because an unusual number of the subscription confirmation messages were bouncing back to me as postmaster, and I saw the unlikely user names. I matched up some of the date_joined timings with logs of HTTP POST to /mailman/accounts/signup and every single one so far was a unique IP address. So I am not going to get very far with firewalling. Does anyone have any suggestions what I can do to avoid this? Specifically what I would like to avoid is sending a confirmation email to these potentially innocent addresses. … Hmm, actually I've just noticed that all of them are Tor exit nodes. Looks like I could probably autogenerate an Apache ACL that lists all Tor exit nodes and bans them from posting to /mailman/accounts/signup. Thanks, Andy

While a user was able to send a message previously that contained an image, I was unsuccessful. It should be the same as Mailman 2.1. What are your settings for content filtering. In Postorius the only thing exposed are Settings -> Alter Messages -> Filter content, Collapse alternatives and Convert html to plaintext. If this Filter content Yes, content is filtered according to the other two settings and MIME parts may be removed according to the list settings filter_types, pass_types, filter_extensions and pass_extensions. These settings exist in core, but aren't exposed in Postorius. For a new MM3 list these settings are empty, but for a list imported from Mailman 2.1, they are set according to the corresponding MM 2.1 settings. I suspect in your case the issue is Filter content and Collapse alternatives are both Yes.

Hi, I had the same errors after I deleted a couple archives using the mechanism below from manage.py shell. from hyperkitty.models import MailingList ml = MailingList.objects.get(name="yourlist(a)example.com") ml.delete() The errors in the mailman3-web logs were such. INFO Process-1:1 processing [rebuild_thread_cache_votes] 12:10:34 [Q] ERROR Failed [rebuild_thread_cache_votes] - Thread matching query does not exist. 12:10:34 [Q] INFO Process-1:1 processing [rebuild_email_cache_votes] 12:10:34 [Q] ERROR Failed [rebuild_email_cache_votes] - Email matching query does not exist. Running the daily/monthly/yearly runjobs by hand did not solve the issue. Then I logged into the django admin from the web interface and deleted the queued tasks with the same names of the processes which were failing. I even deleted the failed tasks, but I am guessing it was unnecessary. I don't see the errors anymore. But I still have the other issues which were mentioned in other posts that have to do with not updating the number of messages and participants and not showing the messages sent from the email client of the subscribers in the hyperkitty archive.

The official guide is for people who really know what they are doing (including those wanting to use Mailman on various existing systems). Mark's helpful articles are useful but also assume a certain amount of prior knowledge. I just need instructions I can follow to start from scratch on a new VPS. I don't mind whether it is for Linode and Debian, Digital Ocean and Ubuntu, or whatever.

I don't have pointers, in the sense of concrete advice I would not be horrified if you followed it to the letter. Here's how I would attack the problem. 1. Decide the List-Id and List-Post questions. I disagree with Mark about List-Id (or maybe he mistyped List-Post?) -- the List-Id should NOT be changed. I don't know how many users are taking advantage of List-Id (my filters do!), but they will thank you for keeping it the same. The List-Post question is contingent. Will you be serving their domain, or will you change the List-Post address? Note that with some additional configuration to Mailman and your MTA they could set up a forwarding configuration for their lists to your server, Or if they don't have other email needs, set up an MX. Or they can transfer their domain name's A and MX records to your host. Alternatively you can change the List-Post address.to your domain. In that case you will have to edit the List-Post address in your database. 2. There are similar issues for mailman-web (especially host names). I have not thought about them at all, so I'll leave that for the interested reader. ;-) 3. (If the DB engines are different) Dump both databases in text format (ie, scripts of SQL commands). Check to see how they differ. 4. Adapt the foreign database to its new environment with search and replace. (Be verbose about the search terms, include lots of context to minimize the chance of inadvertantly replacing something in the wrong context that you missed in step 3.) This is where you would change the List-Post address, as well. You will also want to change the 'mailmanweb' database to just 'mailman'. 5. (Optional if your name is "Daredevil") Create a new Mailman suite install using your current configs, preferably in a new VM or set of containers. Configure the MTA to save all outgoing mail to a file, or maybe firewall off outgoing network traffic to port 25 and leave all the posts in the MTA queues. Create a new 'mailman-test' database. Copy all the dumps to the VM, and edit the names of the databases in the SQL to 'mailman-test'. Restore the dump of your system into the database, and test. Then do the same, restoring the mailman and mailmanweb databases from the foreign system into this new database. 6. Adjust to address any issues discovered in 5. If none, go to 7, Otherwise go back to 5. 7. Apply any changes made in 6 to your configs, and read the foreign dumps into your system, and you should be ready to go for the distribution part. Not sure about host and webserver configuration for mailman-web, though. Steve

[MM3-users] Configure new list via REST API - trying to add moderators

by Andy Matthews

I'm stepping into some existing code which creates a new list via the REST API. I know this works because I can shell into the mailman3 box and run `mailman lists` and it shows the newly created list. We're also submitting list config options via the `/lists/<list id>/config` endpoint, but there's a specific key that we have in our config map that doesn't appear in the REST API docs and I'm wondering about it. We have an array of strings called `moderator` that appears to send successfully. But looking at the docs for "Mailing list configuration" (https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailman/en/latest/src/mailman/rest/docs/…) I don't see anything named `moderator` The "Managing owners and moderators" docs (https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailman/en/latest/src/mailman/commands/d…) indicate that we can perform add owners and moderators via a Python shell, but don't indicate that it's possible to do it via REST. Is this true?

[MM3-users] Converting non-members to members

by Alan So

Postorius is not currently exposing non-members management. Our Mailman 2 users are currently using accept_these_nonmembers, hold_these_nonmembers and reject_these_nonmembers. We know that mailman import21 will change these to nonmembers entries in Mailman 3. Since list owners will still want to manage them, we tend to move all of them to members and turn off delivery status for them. However, we met some difficulties when we try to develop using mailman client. 1) If those non-members addresses already exist as members, we will encounter error when we subscribe for them: urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 409: b'Member already subscribed' 2) We cannot change the moderation_action: urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 400: b'Cannot convert parameters: moderation_action' 3) We cannot change the preference: urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 400: b'Cannot convert parameters: delivery_status' Are there any better ways to enable the list owners to manage those previously configured nonmembers' addresses through the web? Otherwise, we probably need to have some manual effort to overcome the above three issues. We know that we can always do the above manually but we got a lot of lists to migrate to Mailman 3.

It is how our queuing system is built, every queue is stored on disk and messages in intermediate states like when being processed or decorated inside Mailman Core as stored on disk. *Most* of these isn't the problem, since the emails are sent out pretty fast, it's the held messages waiting for approval or broken messages in the shunt queue that would be lost and is what I mean by "State" mostly.

[MM3-users] mailman.log file owned by 'list' user

by Mike Wertheim

I'm on Debian 11, trying to troubleshoot an installation of Mailman 3.3.3 that was done by someone else. Mailman is running as a non-privileged (non-root) user called 'xyz'. On the day that Mailman was installed, that non-privileged 'xyz' user was able to execute mailman commands successfully to create, view and modify lists. A couple of days later, when the 'xyz' user tried running those same mailman commands, they failed with this error: PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/log/mailman3/mailman.log' Doing "ls -l" on the file /var/log/mailman3/mailman.log showed this: -rw-r----- 1 list list 0 Jan 6 00:00 /var/log/mailman3/mailman.log When I did a 'ps' command, I saw that all of the mailman processes are running as user 'xyz'. No processes were running as the user 'list'. It seems that some process is rotating the mailman.log file at midnight, and the newly-created mailman.log is being owned by user 'list'. Can anyone explain why this is happening, and how to fix it?

If so, it is probably listening on port 465 (the "submissions" port, AKA ssmtp and smtps) or (less likely) 587 (the "submission" port -- no trailing "s"). Mailman needs to be configured correctly for this. See https://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/mailman/mta/docs/connection.ht… It's barely possible that Postfix is listening on port 25 but insists on TLS. But that's very unusual, and I think that would produce a SMTP error such as "Need STARTTLS" or "Need SASL" (which happen *after* the TCP connection is established) instead of "Cannot connect" (which suggests a TCP error before a connection is completed). > I have no idea what to do for solving my problems.

The message about "ASCII" codec usually means that this occurred in the header of the email, which is typical of spam. The message ID was generated by Mailman not by the originating system, which is also indicative of spam. If it is spam, you can identify the message and delete it from the archive. If it's not, you will need to find the text that is being replaced and delete it or replace it with ASCII yourself. > I ran the check_hk_import script before migrating and it was not > giving any error.

[MM3-users] Re: Easiest way to install a new mailman3 deployment?

by Matthew Alberti

I had a very similar experience. I don't mean to knock the dev team; Mailman3 is an awesome tool that really meets a need. It is really much much more than a 'tool.' A very comprehensive software suite. For me, I ended up using the docker option on Ubuntu 20.04. My advice is to give up on the idea of using OS package managers. They just aren't current enough (certainly for Ubuntu LTS), or updated frequently enough, for the current development of Mailman3. Nothing but problems for me on Ubuntu, and Debian is about the same. Pypi, or installation in a virtualized environment, was equally challenging. I strongly recommend the docker installation method. It is not quite turnkey, but the documentation is close enough where it might 'just work' in your environment. I used MariaDB, and that introduced some challenges. If you are using postgre, postfix, and nginx, you are pretty close to a very easy installation. This list is very supportive, with very frequent responses from the core dev team. And there are guys like me who really struggled to get to a production instance. Please let us all know what isn't working in the docker approach, and we will try to help I'm sure. - Matt Alberti ⁣Get BlueMail for Android On Dec 31, 2020, 8:15 PM, at 8:15 PM, ieso(a)johnwillson.com wrote: >So I've been trying for the last two weeks to get a new mailman3 server >running on a virtualized server (any server), and I'm turning to this >list after having failed many times and running out of holiday time. > >I started trying a non-docker installation on Ubuntu 18.04 >(https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xIcSsoNFp2nHi7r4eQys00s9a0k2sHhu1V5Plan…) >, which got me the closest.

Hi Mark, Thank you very much for your response. I understood myself as quite ignorant even to find out the versions of each of the component. But my "mailman info" output looks like the below: *(venv3) [root@dlist-lsmgr mailman]# mailman info* *GNU Mailman 3.3.2rc2 (Tom Sawyer)* *Python 3.6.8 (default, Aug 10 2019, 06:54:07)* *[GCC 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-36)]* *config file: /var/lib/mailman/mailman/var/etc/mailman.cfg* *db url: postgres://<username>:<password>@127.0.0.1/mailman* *devmode: DISABLED* *REST root url: http://localhost:8001/3.1/ <http://localhost:8001/3.1/>* *REST credentials: restadmin:restpass* *(venv3) [root@dlist-lsmgr mailman]# pwd* */var/lib/mailman/mailman* How to find out the versions of the each and every component of the mailman 3 like mailman core, mailmancilent, postorius, hyperikitty, mailman-hyperkitty, django-mailman3, mailman-suite and so, after installation?

[MM3-users] Is there a "global" max_message_size?

by skenny＠scss.tcd.ie

I'm running Mailman under Docker (maxking). I've a test list with a max_message_size set to 0 (unlimited). I know it's not what anyone should be doing in production, but I still want to test this. I've sent a series of messages with increasingly larger attachments to the list. Going up in 5MB increments, I find that while a message with a 15MB attachement gets through to the list members, a 20MB one doesn't. The interesting thing is the message in the mail logs: Jun 19 11:44:50 venus postfix/lmtp[17630]: C0C7928564: to=<mj(a)lists.scss.tcd.ie>, relay=172.19.199.2[172.19.199.2]:8024, delay=109, delays=2.2/0.04/0.01/107, dsn=5.0.0, status=bounced (host 172.19.199.2[172.19.199.2] said: 552 Error: Too much mail data (in reply to end of DATA command)) So 172.19.199.2 is complaining about "Too much mail data". That's the IP address of the mailman-core container. I'm wondering why this is happening, and where the decision is being made, as it seems at odds with the fact that the mailing list has no limit on message size. Would be grateful for any insights, many thanks. Stephen Kenny

Multiple things are required. In order to be able to set the list's preferred_language via Postorius, the language must be included in the LANGUAGES definition in postorius/utils.py.

Overall I have been more happier with the virtualenv approach as it allows me to customise the install more easier. I did look at running Mailman using Azure Container instances. The main thing here is we need to get the MTA integrated, and the MTA needs to send out emails from a static IP address with reverse DNS etc setup. This isn't easy to do on anything other than a VM. Sorry, can you elaborate? Are you talking about an MTA that runs inside a VM? Docker actually isn't a VM, so I am a bit confused.

by Mark Sapiro

I have now seen a similar instance on one of my servers. I was able to get the raw garbled response from the user. I have asked to get the raw message that was sent, but unfortunately, I haven't gotten it and I suspect I won't. I think it was an attempted post sent by mistake to the LIST-confirm address. I have tried, so far without success, to duplicate this, but I will keep at it. The raw message is attached. This one is worse than the one in the OP in that the Content-Transfer-Encoding is base64, but the content is unreadable in the raw message. It is clearly not a valid base64 encoding. I'm guessing that the original message looked similar to the one in the OP, but Microsoft Exchange garbled it by doing some attempt at base64 decoding the unencoded plain text and placing that result in the message body -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

[MM3-users] migration plan and auto responder

by Mohsen Masoudfar

Hi, I am writing this in the hope to get some good advises for migration lists from Mailman2 to Mailman3. Thanks a lot in advance. Here is the requirements: * During the migration the old system shouldn't process the emails for the list under migration in the normal way. It should send an email, and only one to the member who sent the original email to the list saying the list is under migration. I know I could do this by auto responder, but the original email would be processed and sent to all members, which I want to block . * After migration the old system should send, per auto responder again, an email to the member who sent to the list, mentioning the new address (the domain is a new one, the list name the same), but again not sending the original email to the list members. * No hackers, robots, spammers should get the new list address. The lists are all hidden. Best regards Mohsen Masoudfar Lead System Analyst, IT Operation American Association for the Advancement of Science 1200 New York Ave, NW, Washington, DC 20005 202-326-7087

[MM3-users] Delayed password requests & migrating users from mm2

by Duane Raymond

Hi again, With my new mm3 instance, password reset email to members are being received many hours late or not at all. They seem to be sent fine and when I trigger one to one of my addresses, it works instantly. But many users report getting it many hours later or not at all (despite looking in spam and bulk folders). Anyone else experience this password reset mail delay/vanishing and/or have any suggestions for diagnosing it and resolving it? The main reason this is problematic is that in migrating lists from mm2, I've set a 'fake' password for them in the mm3 db and instructed members to reset their password to set a new one so they can access the list and update their subscription and/or subscribe to other lists (which they can also do without an account of course - but then lose the ability to use the web interface and access archives). So if, as an alternative, there is another way to get list members to access their account then I'm open to it. Cheers, Duane

Since this is a Mailman 3 list, I assume you are asking about MM 3. Mailman 3 defines the list attribute accept_these_nonmembers, but it is not currently implemented to actually have any effect, nor is it exposed in Postorius. At the present, I think you would have to create a user record with the address and add that user to all lists with role nonmember and moderation_action 'defer' to apply subsequent tests or 'accept' to unconditionally accept posts from that address.

However, please discuss them on the list (or to a core dev privately) unless you have GSoC experience. Google has specific requirements for Summer of Code projects, so there are a lot of important tasks that should not be on that page.

One big cosmetic change is Settings page for List owners, which now has a vertical menu on the left instead of horizontal tabs. The major problem with horizontal tabs for settings was that we were running out of horizontal space in our page width, because of which we weren't able to separate out settings in as-many sections as wanted to. Bounce processing for example was a part of the "Member Policy" tab which included subscription/un-subscription policies. Now, we have a new section for "bounce processing" and flexibility to group other settings into a new section for better discovery of so many list settings. Hopefully, this will be the last rc and I'll do a stable release next weekend!

by Stephen J. Turnbull

Stefan Bauer writes: > As i only use sqlite, i will give it a try to just copy the database files. OK, if sqlite works for you, I think there's no hurry (I don't know of any severe performance issues for small sites, nor security issues). However, I still recommend considering a migration to one of the more powerful RDMBSes like PostgreSQL or MySQL for the long run, because Mailman installations can easily scale to sizes where sqlite becomes a performance bottleneck. It's not that hard to do, because Mailman (mostly via the Django and SQLAlchemy ORMs, but I think there's some "raw" SQL in Mailman) sticks to the common core for SQL, so you can dump the database as SQL commands and then restore it in another SQL database without too much fiddling. You may need some fiddling, such as the database-specific initializations such as setting the encoding for text items and ensuring that sized columns are wide enough, but mostly that will be taken care of by the ORMs. Regards, Steve

[MM3-users] Finding a user to delete them

by Quanah Gibson-Mount

Due to a bug in mailman3, I have an incorrect user that's been created via github auth that has no confirmed email address yet. I've been poking around the user manager documentation (why is there no UI for user management???), and after adding in bits that are missing from the official documentation (<https://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/mailman/model/docs/usermanager…> is missing "from mailman.testing.documentation import dump_list" despite using dump_list repeatedly in its examples) I can't find the user. I have the confirmation email mailman3 sent out, that tells me the username mailman3 created for the incorrect account is "quanah98", but the user manager documentation doesn't detail how to find a user by their username, only their email. And apparently if the email hasn't been confirmed (and I *do not* want it confirmed), you can't find them by email. Suggestions on how to track down this user so I can delete them would be much appreciated.

I'm not an SQL expert, but I believe that sequences and indexes are different entities, they're both optimizations that you don't need (ie, ignoring performance), and implementations differ on how they're implemented. Eg, if sqlite implements them as tables, while PostgreSQL has a special data structure, you could run into this kind of behavior. I'm pretty sure that these will be recreated appropriate to the new database when the schema validator is done. But don't trust me, and *do* keep a backup. ;-) Steve

Is the archive tool in pipermail's import more robust in this manner? I'd argue it's common to have missing In-Reply-To: headers where the subject and time would need to be used to infer the likely thread.

None of this is really possible in Postorius without modifying source code. However, Postorius is just an example of a web list management UI.

Change the offending .encode() method to add errors='replace'. The traceback from the error should tell you where it is. You could also open an issue at <https://gitlab.com/mailman/hyperkitty/-/issues> for us to look at. If you do that, please include an error traceback if possible.

There is no configuration for HyperKitty in the default configuration (mailman/config/schema.cfg and the active mailman.cfg). You need to have an [archiver.hyperkitty] section in the active mailman.cfg. If you never added one, check the documentation for what needs to go in there and add one. If you already have a HyperKitty section, run `mailman info`, which will tell you what mailman.cfg is being used. If it gives an unexpected answer, you're probably just running `mailman` in a "wrong" place (wrong only because the search algorithm finds the unexpected configuration file). Try running `mailman` from a different current working directory. There is one tricky point. For reasons I don't understand, `mailman` will often create var/etc/mailman.cfg, and it will be empty except for comments. I've found it very easy to trip over that file, so I usually do `ln -s /etc/mailman3/mailman.cfg var/etc/mailman.cfg` to placate the evil spirits.

And nothing will. Mailman sent the message originally and when it was done sending it, it discarded the outgoing message. The message may have been archived depending on the list's archiving settings, but that's it. No version of Mailman 2.1 or Mailman 3 has ever automatically resent bounced messages. If the failures are temporary, the MTA should keep the message queued and retry up to a limit before reporting a bounce, but that's it. The best you can do is get the messages from the archive (you can export a mbox from Hyperkitty or get the messages from Mailman's var/archives/prototype/LIST_ADDRESS/new/ directory) and manually resend them. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

Returned mail is not something that such a service would be able to handle properly (although they can help with apparently returned spam). If mail is legitmately sent and returned as undeliverable, only the author or their agent will know how to handle it. So such >services should provide some way to find out about returned mail. An example: Return-Path: bounces+[Sendgrid GUID]-andrew=hodgson.io(a)em6096.lists.hodgsonfamily.org Sendgrid provide information about bounces but crucially that bounce isn't forwarded back to the original return-path sender (i.e, Mailman). A few people have pointed out they can provide list hosting at a cheaper cost than Sendgrid so I'm looking for alternatives again. Andrew.

Get the list configurations out of ListServ. 2. If separate from 1, get the user profiles and subscriptions out of ListServ. 3. Get the archives into mbox form. 4. Create the Mailman 3 lists. 5. Adapt ListServ configurations as much as possible to Mailman list attributes (there's not much you can do automatically unfortunately).. 6. Import the lists into Mailman. 7. Import the archives into HyperKitty. Steps 1--3 are identical to the same steps for Mailman 2. Steps 4 and 7 are well-documented (eg, for importing from Mailman 2), and it doesn't matter what MLM you're importing from. Step 5 is manual labor. Step 6 I can't say much about until I've seen the result of step 5. HTH Steve

Thought it might be a permissions > issue but it's owned by the correct user. My guess would be that mailman is using a different location for storing these files (aliases, domains, etc.) One could search the system for where (if) the files were created with something like: find / -name "postfix_domains" Another (better?) thought would be to compare the [paths] pointed to by the "layout: ..." in /etc/mailman3/mailman.cfg to ensure it's pointing where you expect (in this case, /opt/mailman3/mm/var/data for data_dir). As user mailman, running: mailman conf to double check the "layout: ..." that's in use.

[MM3-users] Re: How to setup mailman?

by Jacob Bargery

Depends on what you are wanting to install it on. As for the API need, not really sure what you are meaning with that so I for installing Mailman 3 similar to what you see here with Postorious and Hyperkitty, I would recommend some great instructions I could find by Kelly Close who often posts on here. They are at this link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xIcSsoNFp2nHi7r4eQys00s9a0k2sHhu1V5Plan… They worked great when I was installing for a ubuntu 18.04 set up. However I needed to install on 20.04 and that required a few deviations and was a complicated install, so if you can do 18.04 I highly recommend the link above. (Kelly, if you read this, thank you for making those instructions, they saved me when beginning my set up) Note: Using instructions and not installing from source means that a lot of people can't help you with problems you come across during install. I found people still try to help but it's much harder. I will link the options from the Mailman website, however I found them difficult to follow when I was trying. https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/install.html

A pointer to the appropriate documentation would be more than welcome. Thank you to anyone who can provide help. I'm not sure what you want. If you are an owner or moderator of a list or a superuser, you can handle moderation requests via Postorius. If you are a list owner or a superuser, you can manage owners and moderators via Postorius. You can add superusers via the command line django admin `createsuperuser` command. It might be good if the command line `mailman addmembers` and `mailman delmembers` commands accepted a `role`, but they don't. You can manage owners and moderators via the REST API which you can access via curl. See <https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailman/en/latest/src/mailman/rest/docs/…>.

If the same nonmembers post repeatedly, you could set the moderation action for their various non-member records to defer to accept their posts without moderator intervention, but for one-offs, this doesn't save any effort. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

In that case how I create alias not related to mailman? Without seeing the contents of those files, I can't say, but something in /var/lib/mailman3/data/postfix_vmap is conflicting with and overriding something in the other two files. Since the only things in /var/lib/mailman3/data/postfix_vmap are specific list addresses, they are probably what you want, and you could just ignore the warning, but you probably do want to examine and remove conflicts from the other two files. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

[MM3-users] Re: Change 'from' server for outgoing messages

by Benjamin Goldberg

Well, this is interesting. Based on your reply, I stopped trying to figure out any difference between the admin messages and the posts. Instead I removed the settings which routed the outgoing messages through MailerSend. That worked. I received both a welcome message and a post from a list I created just for this test. Then I restored the settings, and it still worked! Without the external routing, my messages ended up in spam but at least they were delivered. Routed through MailerSend they get delivered to my inbox. I'll do some more testing because this all seems strange and I'm not convinced it's fixed. BTW the errors that I had been getting were, at first: response exception: (450, b'The from.email must be verified. The from.email must be verified.') but later changed to: response exception: (450, b'Sorry, please try again. 429 Too many requests.') I had assumed both errors were being generated by MailerSend but now I'm not sure I'm not sure it's fixed but if not, I'm certainly closer. Thank you

by Stephen J. Turnbull

Joe, It may help to have more information about what your system is like. Specifically: 1. Did you install Mailman from our source distribution, from PyPI, or from some other source? 2. Did you install Mailman in its own virtual environment? 3. When you run 'mailman info', does the output make sense? Especially, is the configuration file (mailman.cfg) in the directory (usually /etc/mailman3) you expect? 4. How do you control the Mailman processes? Using systemd's systemctl utility, SysV init scripts, or the 'mailman' and 'mailman-web' utilities? If you are not using the systemd or init utilities, what is the current directory when you start or restart Mailman? 5. Is the virgin runner running? (ps aux | grep virgin) Are there messages stuck in queue/virgin or elsewhere in queue/*? Especially queue/shunt and queue/bad. As long as I'm asking, may as well check these as well: 6. What versions of Mailman applications (mailman, Postorius, HyperKitty, mailmanclient, django-mailman3) are installed? 7. What version of Python are you running Mailman under? 8. What is the operating system?

I probably want the prototype archiver enabled, even if that means duplicating most of the archives and doubling the amount of data stored. I was not aware that Hyperkitty doesn't store all information. I'd like to have all information archived (in order to be able to restore it again, if need be), even if they aren't published. Now... is there a way to import mbox files into the prototype archiver? Looking around, I haven't found anything mentioning this. Since it's just using the Maildir format, I guess I could find a tool that unpacks messages from an mbox to a Maildir destination and get that done, but if mailman has some command to do that, it would be even better.

[MM3-users] Re: Postfix + MariaDB + Mailman 3 Core

by Peter Knowles

Steve, I'm referring to Postfix specific records, not Mailman records which are not the topic of conversation here. Presently, Mailman creates two files under "/opt/mailman/mm/var/data"... "postfix_lmtp" which is a "transport_maps" table "postfix_domains" which is a "relay_domains" table The instructions in the docs says to set these up as "hash" table entries in Postfix so that when they're updated by MM Postfix references get updated accordingly. What I'm doing is, converting the "hash tables" to MariaDB tables stored in a Postfix specific database. Two primary objectives are intended with this updated architecture design... 1. allow management of Postfix tables through my web UI 2. Offer future scalability whereby the database for MM and Postfix amongst other things may get placed on a separate node, and/or setup in a Master-Master mirror cluster. *** On a segway, but related to the overall goal... I'm adding OpenDKIM management into my admin UI, which also is tied to a MariaDB database for key signing tasks and management. For the same reasons above, this is why I'm moving from files to databases. ***

[MM3-users] Show number of subscribers

andrew.bernard(a)gmail.com writes: > Would there be a way to show the number of subscribers to a list in > the web UI? Currently the answer evidently is no. I'm not sure why Mark is pessimistic (except that I don't see hordes of list owners breaking down our doors for this feature), because I don't see why it couldn't be added. HyperKitty already imports mailmanclient, so it can query the list. If you want to pursue this, you should file an RFE in the tracker, but I won't promise it will be very high priority, and it does mean closer integration with core than we've had so far, so there might be some unease from the developers. (I don't see why there would be an issue, except for the slight increase in maintenance burden.) On the other hand, we do have a bunch of students and others interested who were attracted by Summer of Code and Season of Docs, and one of them might find this an interesting task. It's not an introductory project, but it looks straightforward to me, with well-defined requirements. Steve

However, you could easily alter a template, possibly the base template, to include a file would contain your message with appropriate formatting. Django has a conditional include feature so you wouldn't get an error and no glitch in the display if the file weren't present. Extensions to the idea would include putting the formatting in CSS (sort of pointless by itself) and adding Django code to check whether the user's previous login was before the MOTD was changed (and then the CSS could be used to hide the message in case they had logged in recently, and presumably already saw it). It wouldn't be hard to add a MOTD table to Django, and then you could display all messages more recent than previous login. I'm not interested in doing this myself but would be willing to help a volunteer write the code and get it committed (subject to Steering Committee consensus, but I don't see why not). Steve

That's correct. The issue is in the account_emailaddress database table which is an allauth table that Mailman core and hence the REST api know nothing about. Our latest recommendation is django-allauth>=65.4, but that requires changes, see https://gitlab.com/mailman/django-mailman3/-/merge_requests/316 and https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman-web/-/merge_requests/58 although the changes only affect testing and a deprecation warning. Also, installing that django-allauth version may result in upgrading Django to a version which doesn't support django-haystack<3.3.0 and may also require manually upgrading django-haystack. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

Maybe it makes sense if a person has many lists, but I only have this one. It does not say clearly that one has to subscribe after creating an account. I understand it's not totally explicit, but it says "To subscribe or unsubscribe from this list, please log in first. If you have not previously logged in, you may need to set up an account with the appropriate email address."

I am not sure where does Debian packaged version store it's fulltext index, but I am assuming the move somehow makes Hyperkitty not be able to read the index. Can you try removing and re-building the entire index? I don't know again the right command for Django there, but the hyperkitty command you want to run is called `rebuild_index`.

The default posting rules chain includes 'banned-address' which discards posts from banned addresses. You can work around this by creating a new chain based on mailman/chains/builtin.py but without the 'banned-address' rule and setting the list's posting_chain to use it. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

Eggert's configuration is for uWSGI. This is completely different from Apache mod_wsgi. Background: Python PEP 333 defines the Python Web Server Gateway Interface (WSGI) which is a protocol for communication between web servers and applications. Django is one such WSGI application. Basic web servers typically do not support WSGI directly but need some kind of intermediary. Apache mod_wsgi is an Apache module that extends Apache to communicate with WSGI applications. Both uWSGI and gunicorn are separate applications that can receive http requests via proxy from a web server and communicate them to a WSGI application and receive responses from the application and return them to the web server. Thus Apache mod_wsgi, uWSGI ang gunicorn are three separate ways of providing the connection between the web server and Django (or other WSGI applications), each with their own separate configuration requirements. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

When pip is doing an upgrade of the xyz package, it renames the existing package as ~yz and then ultimately deletes the old ~yz package after successfully installing the new xyz. In this case, the upgrade was aborted because of the Django<3.1 constraint in mailman-web and apparently pip then installed Django<3.1 and left the ~jango* directories behind. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

The From: should be unchanged from the incoming post unless the list is anonymous or DMARC mitigations are applied. In the case of anonymous lists, the From should be the list's address and in the case of DMARC mitigations it should be something like User Name via listname <list-address>.

[MM3-users] confirm mail rejected

by Marc Sluiter

Hi, im trying to setup mailman and have an issue: first my environment: - I’m running postfix etc with "mailcow-dockerized": https://mailcow.github.io/mailcow-dockerized-docs/ - I’m running mailman with "docker-mailman": https://asynchronous.in/docker-mailman/ I got almost everything working (with some configuration modifications, see other mail). The only thing which doesn’t work is conformation mails, they are rejected: In the logs I see that postfix is trying both "liste-confirm+extension@domain" and "liste-confirm@domain" for another lookup map of type mysql (so "recipient_delimiter" is working), but not for the mailman map of type regexp. Just a wild guess, I didn't find anything about it: can it be that “recipient_delimiter" doesn't work for “regexp" maps? For now I worked around this issue by manually modifying the confirm regex in "postfix_lmtp” to /^liste-confirm\+.*(a)domain\.tld$/ Does anyone have an idea why the regexp map isn’t working for me and at least 1 other user (see https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/issues/401)? Would my workaround be a long term solution which could be implemented in mailman? That would mean that mailman could work independent of the “recipient_delimiter” setting (or do I oversee something?) Thanks and greetings, Marc

That's nothing new, given that GMail and Microsoft liberally reject e-mail from small providers for no reason anyway (I have experienced it myself). If this situation doesn't change with ARC, I can live with this (by paying for an SMTP relay provider that proxies my e-mail). However, I thought the entire point in ARC was fixing automatic rejections caused by DMARC invalidation by mailing lists, which are vital for so many open-source projects (including Mailman iself). If ARC falls short of solving that problem, because the large providers do not automatically trust ARC, then supporting ARC on my mailing list server is kind of void. Why should almighty Microsoft trust my small personal mailing list server? ARC can only achieve its goal with black-listing untrusted relays rather than white-listing known good ones, because it is simply unfeasable to manually maintain a list of all open-source project mailing lists in the entire world. I could set a new one up tomorrow, how should you know? -- Blog: https://mg.guelker.eu

Parsing a single message mbox with a body line > somewhere starting with 'From' breaks it into two fragmentary > messages. Wow. Almost certainly not a bug in Python. That's the mbox format. If you're into scatological software analysis, here's one of the best flamers in the business doing his thing on mbox: https://www.jwz.org/doc/content-length.html If you've been shocked by the date on that post, no, *nothing* has changed since then. Jamie explains why. You may be dealing with MTA/MDA software using Content-Length, in which case I'm pretty sure the email package has an option for dealing with it. In that case, you should report an RFE to us and we'll try to figure out how to recognize that file format, and automatically deal with it. If not, the software is too unusual for us to worry about, and we'll help you work around the problem. Regards,

The REST API does not use the web server and uWSGI is not involved. Since Mailman core 3.3.0, the REST API is served by Gunicorn processes that have nothing to do with the web server. The time limit for these processes needs to be set as described at <https://wiki.list.org/x/17892072>. Prior to 3.3.0, the REST API used the standard library wsgiref module which doesn't have timeouts. Since you said you have Mailman core 3.2.2, this may not be a REST timeout at all. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
