There is only one difference between the `Discussion` and `Announce` list styles, and that is for an `Announce` list, the `allow_list_posts` attribute is set to `False`. In turn, all that does is cause the List-Post: header to be set to NO rather than the list posting address. There is a discussion at <https://wiki.list.org/x/4030685> of how to set up an announce list for Mailman 2.1. Most of this translates straightforwardly to Mailman 3, although not all the relevant settings are exposed in Postorius. In short, you need to set this up manually using things like moderation settings and custom templates for the welcome message. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

Re: Mailman REST API not available. Please start Mailman core.

It's a bit hard to say, my brain got mushy after a few hours of staring at bash. What was happening was the install was never completing, there was always an error blocking it. One of the main ones I found was pymysql for python2 wasn't installed. Once I installed that, it started to be happy. I also had to run dpkg-reconfigure for mailman3-web and after that I had a working web service. As far as Hyper Kitty, the web service is up (the webpage runs, at least). And I did check systemctl status mailman3, it was inactive. So I did systemctl start mailman3 and it is now running. However, the same error still shows up on postorius. >>Something went wrong >Mailman REST API not available. Please start Mailman core.

I will check with "mailman create" and the --domain argument. Part of adding a new list is specifying the domain. If it's one of the existing domains, i.e., ml.franceserv.fr, or ml.viticreation.fr, that's all that needs to be done. e.g. `mailman create newlist(a)ml.franceserv.fr`. If it's a new domain, you need to add the domain to the django_site table perhaps directly or via the django admin UI and then after `mailman create newlist(a)new.domain` you may need to edit the domain via Postorius' domains view to specify the correct Web Host. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

You can't have two accounts in Postorius/Django with the same email address. But why would you want to? There should be no problem with a single Django user being subscribed to a list with more than one role. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> Sent from my Not_an_iThing with standards compliant, open source software.

Not sure the reason for this, the docs mention that what you had initially and also what Mark mentioned should have worked. Both of them seem to be supported syntax from the docs[1].

Re: Redundant and load balanced Mailman3

by Stephen J. Turnbull

Bottom line up front: 1. Mailman was designed in the context of a single host, and most installations do work that way; we at Mailman don't know a lot about multihost setups and performance yet. This can give you some pretty large installations (eg, mail.python.org is a single host, I believe). Maybe Mark will chime in on this point. 2. You might get better information from postmasters at the largest sites who may have experience with distributed setups. fedora.org might be a good candidate because their people put a ton of work into optimizing HyperKitty for their situation (that's why HyperKitty has all the options for redis caching etc). Pawel Grzywaczewski writes: > I'm a bit confused about dependency on local files? You mean files > that are created when an e-mail is processed? Yes. > So where is the problem with redundancy? If this host is gone there > will be another Mailman deployment able to deal with the load. Where does the file go if the host goes down? If it's local and the host goes down, you lose or delay mail -- that should not happen if your Mailman system is up. That's why Abhilash mentions NFS, which allows another "core" host to take over if a "core" host goes down -- but that's not necessarily a good solution either. (I'm not saying it's *bad*, just that NFS has known problems for *some* applications, and I don't know if Mailman is one.) And of course the NFS server becomes a SPOF (single point of failure). > What about having 3 VM where all components of Mailman are > installed. Those VMs connect to 1 database on a remote host. But they don't connect to 1 database. Each component has its own database, and HyperKitty and Postorius also connects indirectly to core's database via core. They *could* all connect to one database server, but that server becomes a SPOF. > A given VM handles a request HTTP or SMTP, and if there is a > problem (or very high load of SMTP) Mailman doesn't handle SMTP requests, I assume you mean LMTP. I don't think that LMTP handling is very strenuous (could be wrong). The aiosmtp module can handle quite high loads, spending most time waiting for the payload (during which it handles other connections), then it dumps a file to disk, also quite fast. As I understand it, the bottleneck is the database stuff. Mailman does a lot of database accesses to handle a post. > there are still 2 other VM that can do the job. So perhaps the > question is: can we plug 3 Mailman instances into 1 DB? Is Mailman > software developed taking into account that several Mailman > instance writes to the same database at the same time? I don't see why that would be an ACID problem -- the database takes care of that. I do think it would make the database bottleneck worse for performance. Note that we're currently seeing reports of long delays (enough to cause database connection timeouts, so on the order of minutes) in creating lists when there are already a lot of lists. If I had to put money on it, I would bet that there is some procedure iterating over incremental requests in Python that should be doing "one big request" to the database. But I don't know that that's true. I do know that there are some very big sites (such as fedora.org) that use Mailman 3. But they seem to have rather complex setups, with powerful databases and caches to speed up even that. Finally, Mailman 3 was originally designed and tested with a single host doing all the work in mind. The most obvious symptom is the lack of authentication on the REST API. (Of course you can simulate that model with an appropriate firewall and subnetting setup.)
