Postorius allows a list owner or site admin to set Moderation for list members and non members at e.g. https://www.example.com/mailman3/lists/list.example.com/members/(non)member/. Currently, a list moderator who is not an owner cannot do this, but a moderator can set Moderation for the sender of a held post when handling the post. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

This is wierd. It looks like we are trying to establish a connection to host='webmail.domain-02.de', port=443 in order to GET /mailman3/postorius/api/templates/list/mylist.lists.domain-03.de/list:member:regular:footer, but the error says "Cannot connect to SMTP server localhost on port 25". I have no idea how port 25 is coming into it. Can you get https://webmail.domain-02.de/mailman3/postorius/api/templates/list/mylist.l… on the Mailman machine?

The 'VIEW SITE' is in the header on the right side. It's a link to lists.example.com/mailman3 which apparently gets redirected to lists.example.com/mailman3/postorius/lists. The difference I am talking about is that lists.example1.com/postorius/lists shows only its mailing lists while lists.example2.com/postorius/lists shows all mailing lists on the server (ie. also mailing lists of example1.com) Flo

Please describe all that apply. I created an admin user and when I try to sign in with that user, I get a page that tells me that a confirmation email has been sent and I should confirm the user.

Mailman core (actually, the backend RDBMS) is perfectly happy to manage millions of rows. Postorius is another matter, it's not highly performant when you get into "thousands", and it would just be "list of members", no "tag algebra" searches. > If not can this be counted as a feature request: > - in mailman3 itself: > + add a facility that allows storing additional info to each > member , either as a (largish) comment field or an array of tags > ++ if tags, it should support managing thousands of them (but > each member is likely to only need a few associated) > + if tags are used, each list should have its own set of tags > (though a means to designate a list to participate in a global > tag collection might be useful). > > - in postorious: > + allow modifying the comment field, or adding/removing/modifying > one or more tags to each list-member > + allow searching a group's membership by tags (or substring in > the comment field), > ++ following which mass-operations (deletion, setting > moderation flags etc) should be possible based on > individual selection of the found fields As a volunteer maintainer, I would oppose working to put this in the Mailman distribution. This is a general relational database design, and I am sure if it were available, it would attract many further feature requests. The search and destroy functions would also likely be bug and user error magnets (and both mass deletion and mass moderation are potential disasters). I'm pretty sure that performance in Postorius would be a disaster all of its own -- we'd need to drop a couple levels of abstraction down to raw SQL if you want to query the conjunction or disjunction of multiple tags. We don't have the manpower for this (unless you want to pay for it, there are plenty of consultants who can do it, including my employer). -- GNU Mailman consultant (installation, migration, customization) Sirius Open Source https://www.siriusopensource.com/ Software systems consulting in Europe, North America, and Japan
