Thanks for getting back to me.
IMO post-installation docs for list admins would be a big help in
Mailman3 adoption. I'm willing to help with this.
When I say "working": I'm looking to migrate Mailman2 mailing lists to
Mailman3, but am struggling with even basic setup tasks before we
attempt list migtration.
For example, on admin page I've set up two lists, one public and one
private (each with unique list IDs), but neither appear in the site's
list index.
And I don't know where to add list members.
And clicking the site archives link throws this error:

Yes, Without seeing your contribution, I think something like what I
wrote with a more precise pointer to Django documentation on
overriding templates would be optimal. But I would be open to
suggestions.

I would have to see the proposed change. As I said before, I am
generally opposed to making it easier to replace our branding. Making
the footer extensible while preserving our branding would be fine with
me, but it seems to me that it would be hard to do that in a way that
would satisfy most use cases and be reliably attractive.

Yeah, I understand that. Still I'm reluctant to approve it (espcially
sight unseen), but I won't veto it, or any of the parts you've
mentioned. So I recommend you consult Abhilash Raj
<maxking(a)asynchronous.in>, who is the committer most recently active
on Postorius as far as I know, specifically base.html.

It cannot be a documentation bug since you are NOT using/following the
documentation!
The message is good enough. Where is your xapian_backend,py??
```
wash@gw:~$ locate xapian_backend.py
/opt/mailman/mm/venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages/xapian_backend.py
wash@gw:~$
```
I hope the above gives you a clue as to where it should be found.
However, since you aren't following the documentation I am familiar with,
and I am not a Python expert, my end-of-thinking capacity (/etc) is here :-)

Several Postorius errors over the weekend
by Andrew Hodgson
Hi.
I've had several Postorius error messages which have resulted in an email. Is this someone up to mischief or have I missed a configuration somewhere? We had several of these over a short period and nothing since then which makes me think someone was running a script on the endpoint, but would be interested in confirmation from those that know better.
Thanks.
Andrew.

[MM3-users]Re: mailman 2 vs. mailman 3: what happened to multipart/digest?

Here's an '02 reference in git to the some heritage for multipart/digest

commit 63d2568fe58333f8ca0b7582f74b43e775c581cd
Author: bwarsaw <>
Date: Thu Jul 11 22:14:25 2002 +0000
send_i18n_digests(): Let's generate MIME digests the correct way, by
wrapping each message inside the multipart/digest in a MIMEMessage
instance. We also no longer need to initialize the mimedigest
instance's payload to the empty list.
Also, when sending the digests, be sure to include isdigest=1 in the
metadata, otherwise SMTPDirect will try to tack on another footer.

Re: Postorius no connection to REST API
by Abhilash Raj
Apologies for the top-post in advance.
So, I am still catching up to this and I don’t very well understand apache2 config, so I’ll try to briefly describe what the setup should be and perhaps it can be translated into apache2 config. Since this thread is mostly about Web stuff, I am not going to talk about mail setup, but replacing `web server` with `mta` and appropriate port changes are the only major differences in mail setup.
Postorius (using Django library/web framework) speaks WSGI and can be run using a WSGI Server. There are multiple options for choosing a WSGI server like uwsgi, gunicorn etc. There are also some common web server plugins like mod_wsgi, which are essentially WSGI servers implemented as Apache2 plugin.
Web server reverse proxies the WSGI server which runs Postorius/Hyperkitty. You want WSGI Server to be configured to listen on either a socket or a port and then also configure web server to reverse proxy the socket or port.
*Ideally* you want to terminate TLS/SSL at the web server level and proxy the HTTP request to the local WSGI server. You don’t need to do anything special for Mailman for SSL if you do this, just follow the regular Web server documentation for SSL for any domains you are supporting in Mailman.
If you don’t want to terminate TLS at web server and instead want it down to the last step, WSGI server itself, then the setup is something we don’t have any docs for at the moment but if you go to the respective WSGI server’s docs, I think you’ll find some.
uwsgi is a WSGI server implementation, but it is a lot more than that, resulting in a bit more complicated configuration and issues, even though it is stable. The documentation for it exists, but it can be hard to parse if you don’t know a lot about WSGI stuff.
A few notable things about uWSGI that Mailman documentation uses are, (1) Ability to manage a daemon process like systemd and (2) ability to speak a new custom protocol called uWSGI with Web Server instead of HTTP that most other WSGI servers use to talk to Web Servers.
(1): This is specified as a part of the the “attach-daemon” configuration in the uwsgi.ini file. For Mailman, we use
# Setup the django_q related worker processes.
attach-daemon = /opt/mailman/venv/bin/mailman-web qcluster
Which will essentially start `mailman-web qcluster` command which starts and a daemon and manage that daemon. Putting it in the uWSGI makes it easy to manage the lifecycle of this and the WSGI server together. If you were using something else like gunicorn, this would be a separate systemd service which you’d start/stop along with mailman-web.
(2): This is *probably* what is causing the issue for you from what I can gather in this thread, but I am not sure. Web Server <—> uWSGI communication can be either HTTP or (named exactly same as the package name itself, which causes confusion I suppose) uWSGI protocol. Depending on how you configure uWSGI, you want to update your web server configuration to talk the same protocol.
```
uwsgi-socket = /run/mailman3-web/uwsgi.sock
or
uwsgi-socket = 0.0.0.0:8000
```
is the config to talk uwsgi protocol and you want to configure Web server to Proxy using the same protocol. You can find that in the uwsgi docs here: https://uwsgi-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Apache.html You probably need an apache module to speak uwsgi, the docs should have the details.
Notice the URL is uwsgi:// instead of http://.
Other way is to configure uWSGI to speak HTTP, which can be done by replacing "uwsgi-socket" by "http-socket” in the uwsgi.ini configuration. This might be the easiest for you to try, do make sure to restart the mailman-web service after making the change in uwsgi.ini.

As I interpret it, apache is reverse proxying to the uwsgi app, now through http instead of the socket. But I have no idea if that's the right way round. I'm not sure is the config file templates for apache, nginx and uwsgi that you get with the Debian packages are added by the Debian team or if they are there any way and just have been modified to the Debian file layout, but I'd guess either way it's not that likely that they wrote it the wrong way around. But I'm not too experienced to be able to translate the nginx config to apache to see if that would result in something different.

So it's entirely possible that I missed something when I modified the website from mailman2 to serve mailman3, but then it shouldn't have been able to show the website at the beginning.

Your lists are configured with Un-Subscription Policy moderate or
confirm, then moderate so unsubs require Moderator approval.
What Postorius version is this? Prior to 1.3.3, unsubsubscription
requests were not visible in Postorius. In 1.3.3_+ they are available in
the Subscription requests dropdown at
https://example.com/mailman3/lists/listname.example.com/unsubscription_requ…
although they may not be counted in the Subscription requests count badge.

Correct.

No. That creates a Django user, not a Mailman user. What you think of as
a Mailman account is actually a Django account.

Mailman core has users and addresses. A user has one or more associated
addresses. When you subscribe to a list without having an account in
that way, or via email to list-join or list-subscribe or by being mass
subscribed by the list admin or by being imported by `mailman import21`,
assuming you are previously unknown, this creates a Mailman user with an
associated address and subscribes the user or address.
Each user has a primary address and zero or more additional linked
addresses. The user can be subscribed to a list as a user in which case,
delivery if any is to the user's primary address, or can be subscribed
as an address.

Yes, see above.

Based on the above, your "mailman accounts" are actually Django
accounts. With that in mind, the above is correct, but there is no real
link between Mailman users and Django users. When you are logged in to
the web UI you are logged in as a Django user, and Postorius and
HyperKitty know that user's email address and can therefore know if it
is a list member and know what address to subscribe or unsubscribe as
requested.

As I have said, what you are calling a mailman account is a Django user
and not a Mailman user.

They are, but they are not Mailman core users.

No. A Django user is the same thing as what you call a mailman account.
A Mailman core user is a separate thing entirely.

No. An admin can create Mailman users via the Postorius UI. A Django
superuser can also create Django users through the Django admin UI.

Because they are the same thing. When you go to the Sign-up link on a
Postorius or Hyperkitty page you go to
https://example.com/accounts/signup/, and that's Django, not Mailman.

They are distinct. Django users have email addresses and Mailman users
have email addresses and they can be associated in that way. There is no
other link.

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'settings'

Hello!
I've just set up Mailman 3 with Hyperkitty and Postorius in venv via pip by using the guide at https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html#virtualenv-inst… on Oracle Linux 8.3 with Python 3.6.8. The process seemed to go smoothly and without errors.

Mailman and mailman-web do start without errors when I run them via their systemd unit files and Postorius serves up pages (without styles and such, which I'll fix later). SELinux is disabled, at least while I work through this issue. I've gone over the configuration files, and everything appears to be in order as written in the installation instructions, but that's likely not the case. :)
My configuration files outside of the Mailman virtual environment are in /etc/mailman/:
(venv) [mailman@host ~]$ ls /etc/mailman3/
mailman.cfg __pycache__ settings.py uwsgi.ini
When searching the web about this, I only found one result, on this very list, but it didn't have quite enough information for me to solve my issue. It might also not quite be the same problem: https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/thread/…
Might you be able to point me in the right direction on solving this issue? Please tell me if there is any more information I can provide to that end.

Hi,
I gave it a try, but I was not able to disable hyperkitty. I compared the settings in the link you gave and I see a lot of differences. Some of them I am not sure why they are missing in other example settings.
Currently I would say, I will keep the archive link there until it is more clear for me how to set things up. Since archiving is disabled, there will be no data in the archive. That is okay for the moment.
