Mailman 3 installation documentation
by Abhilash Raj
Hi All,
I have been trying to work on revamping the documentation site we have at https://docs.mailman3.org. It is on https:// but I am not sure why the http->https redirect doesn't work in Readthedocs. I have set it to "serve always from https".
Anyway, it might not look too different right now, but there are some small re-organizations. I have been learning some new ReST and Sphinx tricks and been trying to cross-reference and link various sections and settings. The docs site shows up Mailman's logo now (I didn't even know we could do that ;-).
There is a place[1] for all supported Django settings that Postorius and Hyperkitty have. I am also planning to add some common Django settings that often people have to lookup and is not fun for people from non-python backgrounds. Hopefully, it will make lives easier for administrators.
I have reverted my own stupid decision to use "sudo pip3 install" in the docs to instead use virtualenv. The installation docs are going to grow to be more comprehensive.
I am also working on mailman-web project[3], which should simply installation process for all the web components using a single project and provide better guidance on Django's settings file management and howto run manage.py commands.
I have added a `mailman-web` command, which, for those of you familiar with internal details of Django, is going to be our custom manage.py script. It sets up settings correctly and would hopefully reduce the pain of using `django-admin` and/or finding out the right path for `manage.py` script. It is still not ready for prime time, but it is usable. Early adopters can play with it if they like!
I would really appreciate if people who have tried to manually install Mailman 3 in the past would share their experiences about what they think could be documented better. You can reply here or open an issue[2].
The user documentation are going to follow, hopefully soon :)

Re: Mailman, etc. upgrade woes and persistent bugs

But they are. I 100% buy the part about providing full option data
and controls in the list format (as in Mailman 2). Isn't that the
most important aspect of your proposal for Postorius?
In the rest of the discussion, all I did was ask what are the use
cases for distinguishing admin-disabled from user-disabled. I don't
know anybody better to ask than you! IMO, these use cases matter,
because as I explained in another post, it seems it would be useful to
provide the admin with *more* information than just the disabling
agent in cases where an admin is considering reenabling a disabled
subscription. I could be wrong, that's why I ask. I apologize for
not ending with a question mark, I should have done so.
I ask again, please, if you know, explain when admins are reenabling
disabled subscriptions (other than the OP's mass disable case, which I
think we understand pretty well). I personally have never reenabled a
subscription except at user request. I understand my experience is
extremely limited AND biased, but it is what it is, and it's all I
have right now. I wouldn't be surprised if Mark's and Abhilash's are
similar (although Mark does have his bicycle club list, and they're
mostly not power users). So, please share yours.
As for the abandoning Postorius part, do you think that hurts my
feelings? On the contrary, if you can do that, I feel pride.
Affinity being proprietary hurts my feelings (even though I understand
perfectly well why it's necessary), but list admins and subscribers
benefitting from Affinity is vindication of Barry's decision to split
out the UIs from the core, despite the pain that causes some site
admins. I had nothing to do with that decision, but I'm happy to be
associated with a project that cares enough for users to enable such
progress.
Sincere regards,

How exactly did you install Mailman? The document you reference gives
alternatives. You don't say exactly what you did.
> 2. If I (using Postorius web interface) add footer template to my list under regular message, something strange happens. Mailman stops to send messages for list members. No any entries in the logs. Just Mailman log writes: "unable to connect localhost port 25" and no more explanation. If I delete list's footer template (web interface), mailman starts working again. What is bad here? How to add custom footer? In mailman 2 if was working so good and was easy to setup.
It appears that no MTA is listening on localhost port 25. Is your MTA
even running? It is extremely unlikely that this has anything to do with
adding a termplate in Postorius.
You might be better off installing Debian's 'mailman3-full' package
<https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=mailman3-full&searchon=names&su…>.

Still unable to get mailman3 working on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

Michael Heseltine writes:

All of the settings*.py files are for Django, that is, for Postorius
and HyperKitty.
Configuration of Mailman 3 core is mostly done in .cfg files,
typically in /etc/mailman but I don't know about the instructions
you're following. From docs/database.rst:
You would then need to set both the `class` and `url` variables in
`mailman.cfg` like so::
[database]
class: mailman.database.postgresql.PostgreSQLDatabase
url: postgres://myuser:mypassword@mypghost/mailman
The "class" line is verbatim. In the "url" line the words beginning
with "my" are dummies that you need to replace with the appropriate
values.
Howto_Install_Mailman3_On_Debian10 provides a template for mailman.cfg
which you may want to copy and customize at least the passwords)

Mailman 3 Internationalization setup
by Abhilash Raj
Hi All,
Mailman 3 is now setup for continuous internationalization. We are using Hosted Weblate[1], which is the hosted service for the Weblate project[2]. It is actually quite nice and I've been learning how to properly document a Django project from it's documentation.
Which brings me to it's documentation. Weblate has great documentation for translators[2]. The UI pretty simple and should be easy to navigate around.
We have setup the workflow in a way that each commit in Gitlab generates a webhook and updates Weblate. Weblate is then able to pull all the changes in real time. To pull translations back into Gitlab, I have a custom script running every night that pulls translations (as commits) and generates pull requests against the upstream repos.
Weblate has the ability to automatically push the translations back, but for security reasons, I didn't want to give a 3rd party service direct push access to our repos. I've been working on a Patch to Weblate[3], which would allow it to send translations as Merge Requests (as compared to direct-push). After it is merged and deployed at hosted.weblate.org, I hope I can retire my custom script.
We have setup the following projects:
- Mailman Core (https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/gnu-mailman/mailman/)
- Postorius* (https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/gnu-mailman/translations/)
- Hyperkitty (https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/gnu-mailman/hyperkitty/)
- Django-mailman3 (https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/gnu-mailman/django-mailman3/)
There should be empty .po files generated for most languages supported by Django and Mailman Core. If there are any questions or bugs related to source strings, please send out an email to mailman-developers(a)python.org.
The current translation %age is pretty low, hopefully we'll be ale to get it close to Mailman 2 sometime soon :)

[2]: https://docs.weblate.org/en/latest/user/translating.html
[3]: https://github.com/WeblateOrg/weblate/pull/3024
[*] Yeah, the URL for Postorius is a bit weird, because it was called "translations" before. At the time, I didn't know the difference between a project and a translation component in Weblate terminologies. And they don't give out permissions to change the URL, so we're maybe stuck with it.

Your email has to be confirmed by Postorius for you to login at /accounts/login.
MAILMAN_ADMIN_EMAIL requires you to go through the forgot password
process to set an actual password, it doesn't set a default password.
If you email setup is broken for some reason and you can't get it working, one
thing you could do is ask Django to simply print the outgoing emails to stdout by
adding the following to the settigns_local.py (and restarting mailman-web
container):
EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.console.EmailBackend'
You can find the emails in `docker logs mailman-web` output (or whatever the
command for container's stdout is) and click on the link to verify and login
into your account.

To reset, you want to go to /accounts/password/reset/. URL should be findable
from the Sign In page.

It reloads the configuration, but the admin is created in database, so that isn't
re-created.

Yeah, seems like something is wrong with the DNS setup there.
What version of container images are you using?
Also, what is the value of SMTP_HOST? Do you have that setup to point
to the MTA?
