Thanks Steve, Generally I just found the mailman shell examples in the documentation lacking, as: * it used functions not available without loading additional modules not listed in the documentation * the steps to find accounts is lacking, since they don't work for email addresses that are not yet verified * I could find no documentation on what fields are available in the user object, so I was unable to find the account via other methods, including the actual username created by mailman3 (which seems odd, wouldn't this be a standard way to find users..?) The Django UI is the only thing that let me find the miscreated user and delete it. Hopefully the bug I filed about github user integration being badly broken will receive some priority, given the bug causes new accounts to incorrectly be created for existing users. --Quanah -- Quanah Gibson-Mount Product Architect Symas Corporation Packaged, certified, and supported LDAP solutions powered by OpenLDAP: <http://www.symas.com>

Programmatic Creation of Users

by jciesla＠techsupportme.com

I am returning to Mailman after being away for a LONG time and I need to create 40 lists with ~350 subscribers spread across those lists. After a lot of testing I am now able to create users from the Core Shell and set (most of) the necessary values. Having jumped that hurdle I have hit a roadblock and I am hoping that the list can provide some insight and/or solutions. After a lot of research I now understand that what I am doing in the Core Shell is creating a User entity which has one or more email addresses as well as one or more roles and preferences that exist at the global level. This user entity can Subscribe to zero or more lists. If I am incorrect in the summation please let me know! Assuming that the previous information is correct that brings us to my current dilemma. Specifically, the User entity can Subscribe and interact with lists using the email commands, but they can't Login using the Postorius web interface. If I understand correctly the reason that they can't login is that the underlying Django system does not recognize their account because the account that was created in Core isn't accessible by Django. Instead the user needs to create a Django-specific account at which point the information from Core becomes available in the user's web UI. If that is in fact accurate then I want to take the next logical leap: is it possible to programmatically create an account in Django that is tied to the account that was created in Core? Any information is greatly appreciated! -John

HyperKitty failure

by horvath.arpad.szfvar＠gmail.com

Hi, I try to connect mailman3 to hyperkitty, but there is no success so far. You can see the details below. How can I solve the problem? As I have several domain name (like lists.xxx.hu, xxx.hu, yyy.hu) on the same server, so I guess localhost won't work. In mailman-hyperkitty.cfg there is a line: base_url: http://lists.xxx.hu/hyperkitty/ /etc/mailman3/mailman-web.py includes "*" in ALLOWED_HOSTS I have an error message in /var/log/mailman3/mailman.log Dec 30 21:41:23 2021 (126976) HyperKitty failure on http://lists.xxx.hu/hyperkitty/api/mailman/archive: (405) Dec 30 21:41:23 2021 (126976) Exception in the HyperKitty archiver: Dec 30 21:41:23 2021 (126976) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/mailman_hyperkitty/__init__.py", line 154, in _archive_message url = self._send_message(mlist, msg) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/mailman_hyperkitty/__init__.py", line 210, in _send_message raise ValueError(result.text) ValueError In /var/log/mailman3/web/mailman-web.log WARNING 2021-12-30 20:41:23,816 127032 django.request Method Not Allowed (GET): /hyperkitty/api/mailman/archive [pid: 127032|app: 0|req: 101/101] 109.230.236.204 () {38 vars in 592 bytes} [Thu Dec 30 20:41:23 2021] GET /hyperkitty/api/mailman/archive?key=lHzJB%2FzfSWUrbPKZ84JNSlLXHVyCDt8T => generated 0 bytes in 1 msecs (HTTP/1.1 405) 6 headers in 189 bytes (1 switches on core 0) WARNING 2021-12-30 20:41:23,854 127032 django.request Method Not Allowed (GET): /hyperkitty/api/mailman/archive On Debian 11, I have these packages ii mailman3 3.3.3-1 all Mailing list management system ii mailman3-full 3.3.3-1 all Full Mailman3 mailing list management suite (metapackage) ii mailman3-web 0+20200530-2 all Django project integrating Mailman3 Postorius and HyperKitty ii python3-django-mailman3 1.3.5-2 all Django library to help interaction with Mailman3 (Python 3 version) ii python3-mailman-hyperkitty 1.1.0-10 all Mailman3 plugin to archive emails with HyperKitty Thanks, Arpad

Re: Hyperkitty import from mailman2

by Marvin Gülker

Just a suggestion -- if your list didn't have any e-mails in the last month, the front page will show it as inactive. Dig into the archive links on the left side to actually see your e-mails. I've been bitten by that behavior as well. The front page simply doesn't show e-mails older than a month. Look here: https://lists.secretchronicles.org/hyperkitty/list/tsc-devel@lists.secretch… No emails on the front page.

Re: [Mailman-Developers] Rolling releases for Container Images and Funding Campaign for Mailman

For those who don't know about it, Quay is a container registry offering from CoreOS. The main reason why I chose to move to Quay, from DockerHub that we are currently using, is security. Some parts of both Dockerhub and Quay are open source and some aren't. There isn't a very clear boundary/transparency in what technologies they use. Both are free to use for open source projects. However, Quay provides an improved security model with RBAC to push images from build server, without having to put my account password on the build server. It also includes a (open source) security scanner for images, which looks for vulnerabilities in packages included in the image so that I can re-build them if one is found. There are open source registries available, most popular of which I know is provided by Gitlab. However, I feel Quay is better for my current workflow, which involves lots of bash scripts for building and testing images on public CI system for rolling releases. Given more free cycles, I do intend to have a better build pipeline and possibly use Gitlab's own registry to distribute images. > It looks like it's a non-free system.

You can't have both with the current development > model. Not exactly, I still believe all our git-heads should be compatible with released (i.e. stable) versions of dependencies, regardless of the fact that we maintain those dependencies. Also, there is at least one test per-project which tests with git-heads of dependencies we maintain, so that we know if we make any incompatible changes. I am not sure what in the current development model prevents us to do both? The story for container images is different than testing with git-heads. We need better integration testing for the entire suite to be stable in conjunction, rather than independently. In fact, containers might be the perfect way to actually do the integration testing. > > If this campaign succeeds, here is a road map of what I intend to get > > done: > Sounds great, what is the limit where the campaign succeeds?

There is work being done on distro packaging for Debian and I am ready to help others trying to do the same for other distros! Systemd-nspawn isn't really a production grade tool to use containers. I am not sure about how much it adheres to the OCI specs, but if it does, it should not matter which deployment tool you are using with images. I wouldn't mind adding configurations for systemd-nspawn in the documentation, contributions are most welcome. > > - Improve the container images to work with new micro-services > > architecture, > > to achieve scaling and redundancy in services. > The current bottleneck is the rest api from core.

I didn't say they will be served from the same core ;-) Yes, the Core's API can be further improved to be more efficient. But that doesn't prevent us from scaling. I understand there are issues around multiple instances of containers, but I have ideas to get around most of them. -- Abhilash Raj maxking(a)asynchronous.in

Re: django fake users

by roberto

Hello, yes we talk about django users who are not subscribing to any list only to the django user managment. Automatically removing this users like described above with a cron job is a good idea, but i would more like to avoid this users. Obvious this users are created by a bot, would it not be helpfully to use any kind of captcha? Am 17.01.21 um 12:24 schrieb Andrew Hodgson: > Stephen J.

What I am seeing here is users signing up through Postorius using the sign up option which then creates an account in Django (but not Mailman). Yesterday alone I had over 700 of these accounts created. I don't know whether they pass email confirmation or not (I don't see this in Django admin), however they don't get added as users in Mailman and they don't attempt to subscribe to any list. > >> It may be possible to do something automatic, but you need to explain how you know these users are "fake", and it has to be something that can easily be detected with a few lines of Python.

Mailman 3 installation, no mails in hyperkitty, unable to add footer.

by ugniusviln＠gmail.com

I have read documentation, but still have stupid questions, could You please help, because I can't make it working. I do not understand something important. I have no experience with python at all. I have mailman 3, python 3.5 in my debian OS system, and additional packages like uwsgi and ect. using https://buildmedia.readthedocs.org/media/pdf/gnu-mailman/latest/gnu-mailman… about till chapter 6. I understand mailman suite has hyperkitty already. But I am not sure about: 1. Does mailman-suite have hyper-kitty inside? Because if I run $python manage.py runserver - it runs. In installed it under dedicated OS user home and fonfigured to run. I can create lists, event add lists to hyperkitty page using: $django-admin runjob new_lists_from_mailman list server sends messages to list members as well. But nothing happens more. No emails come to hyperkitty, arciver log 0 size. $ python manage.py runjobs -l shows the lists of the jobs, so seems nothing to add. Except uwsgi.ini, I have only 2 configuration files in mailman-suite project directory: settings.py and mailman.cfg So I do not understand what did I configured badly. 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.
