This is a bug. Currently only `mailman create` sends this notice, but as you note, list creation via rest should do it too.

I would suggest abandoning the Debian packages and installing as documented at <https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html>. You should be able to keep all your existing configuration files and the database. You could even keep `list` as the Mailman user if desired. Once you have done this, upgrading via pip from PyPI or even from GitLab is very simple. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

That will work and is probably what you want anyway. Your own posts will also be held, but you can just accept them. Alternatively, you could set your own Moderation setting to Accept or Default Processing so your posts won't be held, but don't do that as it allows anyone to post by spoofing your address in From:, Sender: or Reply-To: or the envelope sender. The best way to post without the post being held is pre-approval with an Approved: <password> header, where <password> is the list's moderator_password, but you can't set that in postorius so it won't work for you. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

Mailman 3 Container Images v0.1

by Abhilash Raj

Hi Everyone, I have been working on containerizing Mailman 3 so that it becomes easier to test and try Mailman 3. There are two images in total: * maxking/mailman-core : This consists of Mailman Core and includes the plugin to enable the Hyperkitty Archiver. * maxking/mailman-web : This consists of a full Django installation and run the Mailman's Web UI components. It has Mailman Client, Postorius & Hyperkitty. The images are built from the Dockerfiles hosted on Github[3] in case you want to look at it. You can find most of the documentation about these images at https://asynchronous.in/docker-mailman/. The version of the internal components included in each image is available here[7]. The images are versioned and the process is documented[4], please have a look before you use them. Also, the images are signed and I encourage you to verify them before using. The process of how-to verify is also documented. Docker Compose is a tool written in Python makes is very easy to deploy connected-images and take the pain out of writing long long commands for spinning of containers. There is a sample `docker-compose.yml` file in the Github repository mentioned above which is kind-of tested to be able to spin off these images in vanilla condition (without any customization/configuration). You can report issues, comments or concerns in the Github repo[6].

The current implementation of Mailman is good for vertical scaling but not that great for horizontal scaling and redundancy. The web frontend, Postorius & Hyperkitty, are pretty much stateless and can be horizontally scaled and redundantly deployed easily. I am not going to recommend how to handle redundancy for database, because I am not the best person for that and I honestly don't know anything beyond using a "cloud managed" database from cloud providers for HA. Mailman Core is a bit hard to run redundantly mostly because of it's reliance on filesystem for some data like email queues, held messages, shunted messages etc. You can potentially have two running instances, one on standby and failover to other instance. You'd need to synchronize the var directory between them using *some* mechanism, rsync or NFS or something. Although, you want to make sure that they both aren't sending out emails at the same time. > Thanks! > Paweł > _______________________________________________ > Mailman-users mailing list -- mailman-users(a)mailman3.org > To unsubscribe send an email to mailman-users-leave(a)mailman3.org > https://lists.mailman3.org/mailman3/lists/mailman-users.mailman3.org/ > -- thanks, Abhilash Raj (maxking)
