Re: Splitting hosts: mta&core vs postorius

It does not substitute localhost. The localhost address is coming in via the hosts file, which is a relatively standard practice IMO. I could change it, but then perhaps other things would not work. I would prefer to be able to specify what I need. There are also things like systemd-resolvd which will do the localhost-substitution for you even if /etc/hosts doesn't. I did try with the gunicorn patch Mark mentioned (host = "0.0.0.0") and changing the cfg file hostname back to the full name of the host, and that now works!! -- in that the problem I showed earlier is gone. However I then get another issue. From the mailman.log file I now see in the last few lines. For clarity I've numbered them like this "{1}": {1} [22/Jun/2020:00:58:24 +0000] "GET /3.1/domains HTTP/1.1" 200 320 "-" "GNU Mailman REST client v3.3.1" {2} [22/Jun/2020:00:58:24 +0000] "GET /3.1/domains/ch-bc.org.uk HTTP/1.1" 200 215 "-" "GNU Mailman REST client v3.3.1" {3} [22/Jun/2020:00:58:24 +0000] "GET /3.1/domains/greyarea-web1.cam.ivimey.org/lists?advertised=true&count=0&page=1 HTTP/1.1" 404 26 "-" "GNU Mailman REST client v3.3.1" At this point the browser screen reports "Something went wrong" and the message "HTTP Error 404: {"title": "404 Not Found"}" Previously, the process stopped at line {1}. Now that and line {2} is executed (AFAIK) correctly, but then line {3} is isssued. I have no idea why something is looking for "domains/greyarea-web1": - Only the "ch-bc.org.uk" domain is listed in the reply to line {1}, as expected; - "greyarea-web1" doesn't appear in any lists I can show with the "mailman" cli command (and I think I tried them all); - "greyarea-web1" doesn't appear anywhere in the source or config other than as the name of the host its running on or as an ALLOWED_HOST; - I tried using "curl -X DELETE" (from the api docs) to delete a domain called that and it says no such list exists. My only possible clue is that I think, at some point in the journey of configuring mailman, I might have created a list called that on the host. However since then I have wiped the install files and reinstalled. I cannot make sense of this being the answer given the checks just listed. I went looking through the python source and can see that the get() function does indeed throw a 404 exception if the domain isn't found, but I cannot see which code is parsing the reply from the first line So I have two questions: 1) How can I fix this problem? 2) why does getting an 404 reply here cause the postorius web page to produce a "something went wrong" /404 and nothing else, when it could have simply reported that something had gone wrong with one specific domain; > I'd rather not enable the complexity of a multihomed application > unless there's an important use case. (I don't make the final > decision, but I am listened to by Those Who Do.) You wonder about multihome hosts, but should a host have more than one interface (as several of my VMs and physical hosts do), being able to specify which of the possible addresses to listen on could be very useful in the case that "all of them" is the wrong answer. There is no complexity for the developers beyond what is already supported and working. The only point I can see wrong here is the mailman3-core is using one hostname value for two distinct purposes, and IMO it shouldn't. Ideally, and this is icing on the cake, a listen address specification should allow multiple IPs to be passed in, in which case the server listens on all of them. I expect the python libraries already support this. Thanks to all for the help so far, Ruth

Re: Mailman3 without Hyperkitty in docker

by Danil Smirnov

Hi Mark, Actually all this stuff happens inside the container after it's started and initialized without errors. I didn't amend the image anyhow. Also I have the configuration based on docker-compose.yaml provided in the repository which works just fine for mailman-web image. The very same config with postorius image (+ UWSGI_STATIC_MAP param) fails with 500 error...

I'm not in a position to test with Mailman itself right now, but the standalone gunicorn[1] does the right thing (takes an IP address and binds to the corresponding interface, or takes a domain name, resolves it to the IP address, and binds that to the corresponding interface). It does not substitute localhost. It could be a Mailman bug (Mailman 3 is usually configured with all components running on the same host, and that's how it's tested), but first, does greyarea-post resolve to a routable address on the relevant network when queried from that host? > IMO, the hostname parameter needs to be split up into a "what address > should the rest of the world use to address me" and separately "what > address(es) should I listen on". Multiple listen addresses enable > multihomed hosts to get the right connectivity, too. I'm not clear on what you're saying. An address is a rendezvous point; if you're not listening on the address that others are using, you won't meet. What good does it do to split them up? It's not clear to me why you think Mailman might want to be multihomed (which is different from the host wanting to be multihomed). I don't object to the work to make it so. But my paranoia says it's best if Mailman is cordoned off into the DMZ with webservers and other hazmat. By design, Mailman core doesn't need to talk to the Internet or to the secure internal network -- Internet functions are delegated to the MTA and the webapps, and local configuration is via shell access which in principle could be console. I'd rather not enable the complexity of a multihomed application unless there's an important use case. (I don't make the final decision, but I am listened to by Those Who Do.) Footnotes: [1] gunicorn is the Python module that manages web services for the REST interface.

Not really. Postorius would have to know the character set of the list's preferred_language in order to filter anything from the template that wasn't a valid character in that character set, and I don't think it has a way to get that information from Mailman core. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

Re: Mass unverified subscriptions end up as pending user confirmation instead.

They were pre-confirmed. > The addresses did not appear in the Django Admin's non-verified addresses list. They were not verified. It is actually pending verification, not confirmation. Postorius can't tell the difference. It only knows that it's waiting for some action either by a moderator (pending approval) or the user (pending confirmation or verification, but just called 'confirmation') This verification is for Mailman core to verify it's a valid address that the user wants to use with this mailman installation. Once this address is verified, it can be subscribed to other lists without further verification. This has nothing to do with Django verified addresses which are addresses associated with Django log-in that have been verified to Django. > Also why does Postorius lists just 'Pending Approval' and 'Pending Confirmation' but not 'Pending Verification'? As I said, it doesn't know the difference between 'Pending Confirmation' and 'Pending Verification'. You should note that the user you subscribed in this way received a 'verification' request like > Email Address Registration Confirmation > > Hello, this is the GNU Mailman server at example.com. > > We have received a registration request for the email address > > user(a)example.org > > Before you can start using GNU Mailman at this site, you must first confirm > that this is your email address.
