Do not display any lists on index the page (/postorius/lists/) by default (when you create the list it defaults to Hide) - Debian package install

by daniel.botting＠codethink.co.uk

Hi all, I am currently in the process of moving from mailman 2.1 to mailman 3, the basic functions are completed (mailing list and archiving). On our current mailman 2.1 install it advises there are no publicly advertised lists, when I visit mailman3-list.domain/postorius/lists/ I see all the lists that have been created, I require them not to be displayed. I know when you create a list you can on the 'Advertise this list' line select 'Hide this list in list index', but I would like it to default to this in case somebody forgets to select it. I am not a Python expert, though from the description at the top of the below file and the contents further down it looks like you are defining in base.py and then in default.py you are using what was defined, a class of 'Private' which should cause the lists not to be advertised, but they are? File: /usr/ib/python3/dist-packages/mailman/styles/base.py class Private: """Settings for private mailing lists.""" def apply(self, mailing_list): mlist = mailing_list mlist.advertised = False <-------------- mlist.archive_policy = ArchivePolicy.private mlist.subscription_policy = SubscriptionPolicy.confirm_then_moderate File: /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/mailman/styles/default.py class PrivateDefaultStyle( Identity, BasicOperation, Bounces, Private, Discussion, Moderation): """Style for mailing-lists with private archives.""" name = 'private-default' description = _('Discussion mailing list style with private archives.') def apply(self, mailing_list): """See `IStyle`.""" Identity.apply(self, mailing_list) BasicOperation.apply(self, mailing_list) Bounces.apply(self, mailing_list) Private.apply(self, mailing_list) Discussion.apply(self, mailing_list) Moderation.apply(self, mailing_list) I added the below to /etc/mailman3/mailman.cfg: [styles] # The default style to apply if nothing else was requested. The value is the # name of an existing style. If no such style exists, no style will be # applied. default: private-default I took 'private-default' from /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/mailman/styles/default.py, this means now when a new list is created the List style is 'Discussion mail list style with private archives so it is not displayed when you are logged out at /hyperkitty.

With the default compose file provided with the images, `mailman-web` container should be reachable from `mailman-core` container at "http://mailman-web:8000". If that does not work, there is something wrong in how you are deploying the images. You can set an environment variable to wherever Django from Mailman-web container is listening at " POSTORIUS_TEMPLATE_BASE_URL=http://IP:port" -- thanks, Abhilash Raj (maxking)

On our server this is not correct, because it's listening on a unix socket, as well as 80 and 443, but not 8000. Actually, it assumes whatever the default is which might be `http://localhost:8000`. See https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman-web/-/blob/master/mailman_web/settings/m…. It's Postorius that adds the /mailman3/... when setting the template table entry. If that is not correct for your server, you need to set the correct value in settings.py. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

Re: Pck files stuck in out queue

by Lieuallen, Thomas Otis

I’m still wondering about mailman’s cache (cache_dir setting). I have 2x cache files under it that are 3-4 days old. These are mailman cache files, not mailman-web. # pwd /opt/mailman/mm # find cache -type f -ls 38627053 4 -rw-rw---- 1 mailman mailman 13 Feb 6 16:42 cache/26/26/2626c32ded811be4e9631d2215f32d88522b67142bf0eea502362d2b15c4743e 118392 4 -rw-rw---- 1 mailman mailman 11 Feb 7 09:42 cache/98/14/9814e4457e2489e2ec77d19ce982d3643fac3ad849c9861a9198eebf53f1fcde I haven’t figured out how to work with these cache files. I found some mention that a runner would clean up cache files after a week (default) and that one could use ‘cache_life’ to change that default. So, I set the following and restarted mailman. The cache files hadn’t been removed after > 4 hours, so I unset it and restarted again. Cache_life: 1d Without further information or direction, I’m tempted to just remove those cache files and move on with life.

Use caution with links and attachments.] Mark, I checked the database; nothing there. Note that there are only 3x entries and only one is list:member:regular:header (my test), so just nothing of interest. The URL works and produces the proper template information. I finally did a find/grep in the mailman tree and found a match for this errant string. It is under the cache folder. This corresponds to the cache_dir value. I could wipe the file out, but what is the proper way of doing so and should they be cleaned out via a schedule? These don’t appear to be web related, as far as I can tell.

With my test list, I created a template for ‘list:member:regular:header’. It just has text in it, keeping it simple. I create it and see the entries in the database tables and they are correct. However, when I send a test email, my template text is not inserted, but instead another simple text: “testing hello”. I do the same with list:member:regular:footer, and it works just fine. It is just the header that is working incorrectly. When I remove that postorius header template for the list, that ‘testing hello’ goes away. So, it’s only appearing when I have a postorius template setup for that list. What do you get from the following database queries? SELECT * FROM template WHERE name = 'list:member:regular:header'; SELECT * FROM postorius_emailtemplate WHERE name = 'list:member:regular:header'; Depending on your installation, these tables may be in separate databases, i.e., template table in mailman db and postorius_emailtemplate in mailmanweb db. And what do you get if you go to the uri in the result(s) from the first query? The context in the first results and maybe the second results should also be a clue. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

Thanks. In Postorius go to the Templates tab for the list, click New Template, then in the Name dropdown select [list:member:regular:footer], leave the Data box empty and Save.

How to create user accounts and mail addresses through CURL instead of Site Administration ?

by Shashikanth Komandoor

Hi Team, I am currently running Mailman 3 with version 3.3.1 and in built postfix version 2.10.1-6 on RHEL 7.5 in production environment from the past 3 months almost. I am currently automating a few things using the CURL commands but only postorius related as of now. Now I have a requirement. I need to create a lot many users and their mapping email ids through Site Administration almost daily. But it is becoming to do the same through Graphical Interface. So, I just want to know the CURL commands that can be used to create the user accounts and email ids mapped to user accounts. Please do the needful. -- Thanks & Regards, Shashi Kanth.K 9052671936 <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campai…> Virus-free. www.avast.com <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campai…> <#DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2>
