Thank you so far, I maye found the issue:
Uncaught runner exception: 'ascii' codec can't encode character '\xe9'
in position 109: ordinal not in range(128)
Uncaught runner exception: 'ascii' codec can't encode character '\xa0'
in position 37: ordinal not in range(128)
Seems to be the problemm, as it happens the same moment as the
problematic email arrives in exim4:
2020-01-31 03:02:41 1ixLdp-0003Mo-5z => user(a)abc.de R=mailman3_router
T=mailman3_transport H=localhost [127.0.0.1] C="250 Ok"
2020-01-31 03:02:41 1ixLdp-0003Mo-5z Completed
and nothing more. No sign of mailman3 sending out any mail via this list.
Other emails getting to that list will be send out via user-bounces(a)abc.de.
Those mails are in the mailinglist archives, not on hold or anything.
Just the attachement missing.
So, please, howto fix the ascii encoding error in mailman3?

Ok, first fix the ascii encode error for me. Any idea how?
thank you.

Re: Mailman 3 installation, no mails in hyperkitty, unable to add footer.
by Ugnius S
Hi, Mark. Thank You for trying to help me.
I do not remember how exactly I installed mailman or by apt-get or:
$ sudo pip3 install mailman ---I think, have tried this way, but it
already was installed.
~/mailman-suite$ mailman info
GNU Mailman 3.2.2 (La Villa Strangiato)
Python 3.5.3 (default, Sep 27 2018, 17:25:39)
[GCC 6.3.0 20170516]
config file: /home/user/mailman-suite/mailman.cfg
db url: sqlite:////home/user/mailman-suite/var/data/mailman.db
devmode: DISABLED
REST root url: http://localhost:8001/3.1/
REST credentials: restadmin:Rest_password
MTA works correctly. Yes, I understand the error is very strange, but this
exactly happens when I add footer custom template to list's regular
message via web interface. "telnet loclhost 25" answers correctly. Messages
about new members adding and new list creating works and reach the
recipients.
But Mailman for some strange reasons could not to sent messages from
member to other list's members. And nothing to do more: it is enough to
delete template and mailman starts send new messages correctly. One remark
all messages during with customs template was active remain somewhere in
between and do not go out even if template is deleted. I can't even imagine
how to debug that. I have noticed that by experience - method to check
does mailman work after
every small update. This system is so easy to make not working, and then
is so hard to understand what did happen.
It would be good to read about working example how to setup, and which
moments are important. There are many places documented about separate
packages, but not full example. I have found one here
https://lab.uberspace.de/guide_mailman-3.html, but here part of steps seems
are not written as well. For example uwsgi ini and pre required
environment. It could happen that for author these steps were trivial,
but for person from side some small explanations are very important to
understand whole picture of setup and why small parameters where set
exactly that way. Of course I am very thankful for authors of that
example, because that helped me as well.

Various patches for mm3 stable 3.3.1
by Ruth Ivimey-Cook
Folks,
For my own purposes I have created some patches which apply to the
current mailman pip package.
The first of them is for my purposes necessary, and has been discussed
here before: being able to specify the address used to listen for tcp
connections independently of the address the server considers it to be
accessible at. A possible change to this patch would be to check
whether this address was undefined but the old hostname was defined,
and use that if so. For me this is not needed, and in any case it is a
trivial change to make.
The second patch adds a bunch of additional logging calls to various
network-related parts of the package. I wrote these into the package
because I was seeking the cause of template expansion causing messages
to be silently dropped. I eventually found the cause was that I had an
incorrect setting of the template root URL, but I regard the lack of
anything in the logs as just as much of a bug. One important part of
those changes was that I added a try/catch around two parts of the
'decorate' code, which is where the silent dropping occurred. If you
only take one part of this patch, I encourage you to take this part.
For the third patch, I discovered that the task runner was at one point
busy-waiting to the tune of 100% cpu, and the cause was the way that
the runner checked to see if there was work left in the queue. I am not
quite sure what was the exact problem, but I think it was that there
was something to do, but it was not achievable at that time, and the
result was continual retry. The third patch changes the logic slightly
so that this no longer occurs - retry will happen, but somewhat more
gracefully.
I hope you find some use in these three.
Finally, I am currently experiencing problems with templates and would
appreciate any thoughts:
1. If I do not set up 'individual' or 'full' personalisation, all is
well and the default footer templates are expanded as expected. However
setting up personalisation causes template expansion to fail
completely, and messages get sent with a blank expansion.
2. I would find the postorius UI much easier to cope with if the
default template was 'populated' into the UI wherever it was non-blank,
rather than the UI starting off as if no templates were defined at all.
Regards,
Ruth

Re: Hacking attempts?
by Tim Cutts
You could use an application like fail2ban to watch your mailman/web logs and automatically firewall off attacking IP addresses which cause a lot of these errors in a defined window of time. This application is independent from mailman, and you can use it to protect against all kinds of brute force attacks. Ssh, web, mail - anything that creates a log file recording errors from remote IP addresses.
Just be careful when configuring it for remote servers so you don’t saw off the branch you’re sitting on…. I run a mail server for my family, and on one occasion a family member repeatedly got her password wrong which caused fail2ban to lock all of us out because it blocked our home NAT address, and I had to use my mobile phone to unblock us. :-)

Re: Archive Policy not reflecting in Hyperkitty
by Nathan Dixon
Update: I have manage to get this working.
I had to delete all images in docker that were anything to do with mailman.
Docker-compose rm didn't clean up enough stuff.
Once there were no other mailman docker images, I then ran
$ docker pull quay.io/maxking/mailman-web:0.2
$ docker pull quay.io/maxking/mailman-core:0.2
And docker-compose up didn't show any error messages relating to Hyperkitty
this time and the archive policy is reflecting in Hyperkitty as it shows in
Postorius.
Thanks for your help Abhilash!

They are small scripts, but describing them in the documentation is problematic
because they depend on user names and file system locations, which in turn are
distro- or even system-dependent. (Just as an example, some distros use www-data
as the web service user, which is needed for the hyperkitty and postorius
integrations, while other distros use wwwrun and even others just plain www or
something else entirely.)
Providing such wrappers as part of venv or the upstream repository is hence not
possible.
This said, nobody prevents you from creating such wrappers for use with your
venv installation tailored to your system either, just make sure that you write
them up correctly. :)
Also, as is often the way, the documentation could probably be also improved.
For instance, the migration documentation says:
> This, and in general all, mailman commands should be run as the Mailman
> user and not as root. Running some of these commands as root can create
> files owned by root that can’t be read by the Mailman user.
But it doesn't explicitly tell you how to do this. Naturally, as a system
administrator installing, maintaining and migrating mailman instances, you
should probably know how to run a command as a specific user.
su -s /bin/sh -c "mailman ..." $LIST_USER
and
su -s /bin/sh -c "$PYTHON_BINARY $PATH_TO_MANAGE_PY ..." $WWW_USER
is probably what you want to execute commands either as the mailing list or as
the web user, with all these variables being pseudo-variables that you want to
fill in/hardcode to fit your system correctly. Putting that in the documentation
and especially educating users to not use them in a copy-and-paste manner is
difficult, though. Try that and you'll probably have an influx of requests along
the lines of "I don't have a variable called $LIST_USER, the command fails to
execute!"

Re: Can "Pre Verified" set to yes by default?
by Stephen J. Turnbull
Hi Alan,
It occurred to me that Django template widgets are very flexible. It
may be possible to customize the template to accomplish this task. In
that case, the customized template would be kept in a place that
doesn't get overwritten in an upgrade, reducing the maintenance cost
(unless either Postorius or Django changes the template in a way that
seems unlikely to me). I'll try to take a look at that over the
holiday break -- that has the advantage that I just document how we
did it for you, and tell any future requests to RTFM and DIY. ;-)

Sure, we understand that. I'd be interested to hear from business
users and university users if they would like this particular default
to be configurable. It's very easy to do as a one-off, if there is
substantial demand we *can* do it, and later say to people who want
similar changes that it's on them to demonstrate they have enough
demand on their side for another one-off, just as was done for this
one.

I agree, you need to be disciplined about what changes you are willing
to develop and maintain. This one seemed to me to be over that bar,
especially since you can put it in and not suffer too greatly if it
gets reverted in a upgrade and the maintainers don't notice.

Unless I see a lot of demand, I think as a one-off I don't want to
implement it in list_forms.py, but rather let occasional admins do it
on their sites if they want it that bad. But GSoC is coming up again;
maybe a student would be willing to take on a generic "pwn all the
defaults" project next summer.

The way to do that is to set the default action for member posts to
Reject and set Member Options -> Administration options -> Moderation
for the authorized posters to Accept or Default processing as desired.
However, this allows anyone to post by spoofing an authorized address.
To avoid that, leave everyone's Moderation setting at List default and
post using "pre-approval" (see
<https://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/mailman/rules/docs/approved.ht…>.
The downside of this is it requires the poster to send a cleartext
password in a header or body line of the post. It will be removed from
the post delivered to list members, but sending it in cleartext in an
email may be an issue. We will eventually do something with PGP
signatures instead, but that isn't here yet.

Your expectation is correct. All the applicable rules are applied to the
incoming message before any message alterations such as anonymizing are
applied. Possibly you were confused because some other rule's action
took precedence over your header rule.
