OK, it sounds like we're thinking basically the same process, just using slightly different words to describe it (and mine have definitely been inaccurate about current logic at points, adding to the confusion :-P ). > Also, mass-subscribe and import does allow you to verify an address by > clicking this “Pre-verified” checkbox, which can be useful if you are > migrating from a different service or you exported a list of users from > somewhere you know to be valid. I wasn't aware of that. I haven't yet done a mass-subscribe from Postorius (I have a bunch of scripts for generating mailing lists from student rosters and just retargeted them to the REST API :-).

Re: Filter who can send on mailman3 list?

by Marcus Granath

It seems like the version used is: Postorius Version 1.1.2 The menus I can see are the following: Info Subscription requests Held messages Members Settings Mass operations Banned addresses Header filters Delete list And from the "Members" I can select "Subscribers", "Moderators", "Owners" - so I can manage to delete "subscribers" and add somebody as Moderator or Owner for my list. But I cannot find anywhere to set or add something like "non-member". What I basically want to achieve is that my "sendmail" script (executed from linux) will send announce-mails to this mailing list - and will set an "pseudo-address" (not my own name and address) as sender of this e-mail, i.e "ABC Announcement <no-reply(a)abc.com>" - and to get this "pseudo-mail" to be one of the accepted users (together with me and some team mates with real addresses) to send on the list - one option I understood was to use the "non-member" user for this "ABC Announcement <no-reply(a)abc.com>". But in my web-interface (as described above), I cannot find where to add and manage such user (non-member). Or can I use some other API (then the web-page) to do that kind of operation? ;-)

Hi Mark, You're a very patient soul. Thank you. Yes, I'm resigned to exactly that. The archives when folks send emojis will break, but that's just life. Mail will get sent. Heck, I guess I could edit the file in /var/lib/mailman3/archives/hyperkitty/spool to get rid of the emoji in the worst case... Once I've migrated my 1500 mailing lists (this weekend) to the server, I'll think about how to get a new server set up that I can shift to and I'll install that with pip, since that'll clearly give me something more supportable. Is Ubuntu 20.04 a reasonable platform for that? Cheers, David

Mailman 3 Installation

by bruce.dubbs＠gmail.com

I am trying to set up Mailman 3 on a new server. So far I have run: pip3 install Django==3.1.5 pip3 install postorius pip3 install Hyperkitty pip3 install mailman pip3 install uwsgi All that went well. I've been struggling with the configuration though. I am using /etc/mailman.cfg and that seems to be explained in the documentation OK. From there I am confused. I do have sqlite installed, but the documentation discusses mysql/mariadb and postresql. What are the considerations as to why I would need one of these other DBs? I think I can follow the instructions to set up postfix. In the section 'Configure Web Frontend', it discusses setting up the administrator. As I want to put Mailman on /srv/mailman I can create that, but what should the owner/permissions be? Later the docs discuss editing Django's settings.py. Where do I find that file? I'll note here that my experience with python is quite limited and my knowledge of Django is nil. Later in the section 'Set up HyperKitty', it sends me to a page that discusses installing it. I did that with pip3. Then it says to 'Setup your django project'. What django project is that. I would appreciate advice or a pointer to where I can figure this out. Thanks. -- Bruce

Each list has a mail_host attribute. this is not displayed in Postorius other than as the domain part of the list posting address which is displayed near the top of each page. Is this the new-lists.example.com domain? If so, you probably would need to change it. I think by having mailman domains like new-lists.example.com is asking for trouble. Why don't you set up Mailman on the new server(s) with domains like lists.example.com and just rely on DNS to get to the correct server. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

The daily Django hyperkitty sync_mailman job will probably do it.
