But it's of no help to a list-owner who wants to create a custom template, because they have to use Postorius. So, I'm thinking (in broad brush strokes) that if I'm stuck with this "http glitch" I could write a script to: 1. extract the text of the custom message from the database, 2. write that message text to a file 3. update the templates.uri entries to replace the http://localhost... with file:///path/to/file 4. cron the script to run every few minutes. It screams of utter clunk I know...

I think I've tried running them both activated and deactivated to no avail, but any other suggestions? I don't think that's the issue here, but the venv should be active when you run the Django-admin commands. Looking more closely at the error, I see it says ``` File "/opt/mailman/mm/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/compressor/base.py", line 282, in precompile mod = import_module(mod_name) ... ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'sass -t compressed {infile} {outfile}' ``` Thus it appears that compressor is trying to import 'sass -t compressed {infile} {outfile}' as a module instead of executing it as a command. What version of compressor is this? It is working for me on 4 sites with django_compressor-2.4, django_compressor-2.3 and django_compressor-2.2. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

My debian python libraries are now a patchwork quilt to fix issues like https://gitlab.com/mailman/hyperkitty/-/issues/322, which included modifying one patch from alex silva. xapian is a hell of a lot faster - < 1s as opposed to ~6m 30s with whoosh for the "minute" cron job on my site. -- Alex

Question: What happens if I delete a user from all lists and that user is sole owner of some list?

by David Partain

Hi, One of the great things about our new installation compared with our old is the ability to manage users via https://our.wee.domain/postorius/users I might have been able to manage them using the command line on the old installation, but there is no 'mailman delmembers' on that box. Since I now have this Mighty Power, I want to use it to clean up. There are many users who should no longer be on the system, so I want to run something along the lines of: mailman delmembers --member some(a)email.address --fromall \ --no-goodbye-msg --no-admin-notify or, if I'm feeling brave, something like this. mailman delmembers --file somefile --fromall \ --no-goodbye-msg --no-admin-notify My question is: If one of these users is the sole owner of a list, what will happen? Will the user be deleted and that list now owner-less? Will mailman refuse to delete that user until I add a new owner? Thanks in advance for your feedback. Cheers, David

Re: Can creating too many Django accounts crash Mailman3 server?

This can easily be automated, even though the next step, confirming the email address, being ignored. I believe it can be used as a target for a DOS attack by creating so many accounts, that eventually causes an 'out of space' error. > > Is this a justified concern? > Is there a way to manage this feature in a secure way? We no longer use Django to manage our mailman 3 user registration, but the same concerns that you have are still valid for us. What we do is run a cronjob that purges all unverified accounts once per day. So problem solved for us. Perhaps something like that can be done for Django. -- Please let me know if you need further assistance. Thank you for your business. We appreciate our clients.

As i understand, it was installed 2018 and has not been updated (because it has been working without any problem). Perhaps we can help with that. How are these installed now?

If you create a new deployment, I recommend following https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html. You might also consider Xapian as the search engine - see https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/config-web.html#enable-full-text-search… and https://github.com/notanumber/xapian-haystack/tree/master Transferring the data is easy as long as the database is compatible - just dump and load, plus copy some files from Mailman's var/ directory. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

Re: HyperKitty failure

> Can you go to https://lists.xxx.hu/hyperkitty/api/lists and get a > response from Django REST framework which is a json representation of > your mailing lists info? In this list I have just one list that I created for testing. And I can't see there the two lists I've imported from mailman2, e.g. korus. I guess because of admin is not a list list member there. I can see the korus at https://lists.xxx.hu/hyperkitty/ , but not at https://lists.xxx.hu/postorius/lists/ . I guess the setting below is not good. MAILMAN_ARCHIVER_FROM = ('127.0.0.1', '::1') Should I set it to ('https://lists.xxx.hu/hyperkitty', '::1') ? Doesn't seem to work, like that. And what about MAILMAN_REST_API_URL? How can I found its proper value? It's currently the default value but if I try to reach it with wget http://localhost:8001 I get a 404. not found. How can I find the right value? 8001 is listening, so the latter value might be good. horvatha@pyEdu /etc/mailman3 (main) 12:34:13$ sudo lsof -i -P -n | grep LISTEN (...) python3 216185 list 25u IPv4 1079013 0t0 TCP 127.0.0.1:8001 (LISTEN) python3 216186 list 25u IPv4 1079013 0t0 TCP 127.0.0.1:8001 (LISTEN)

Also, is there a way to select multiple users in list and change their digest options? I believe could do this in mailman2 but I am trying to figure out if this is possible for the GUI in mailman3? No, it's not, and in MM 2.1 you could check the digest option for multiple users in the Membership Management... -> Membership List, but if the list was paginated, you'd still need to go page by page. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

Healthchecks and Django

by Stephen J. Turnbull

Philip Colmer writes: > For the MM3 servers, we're probing "/mailman3/lists/". You could create a path in urls.py called "250" that does nothing but respond with a 250 status (and maybe a hello-world page). The issue with /mailman3/lists/ is that it queries core for the lists (which, if successful, proves that core is up as a side effect). > Is there another URL we could use to check the health of a MM3 server What does this mean to you? Our Mailman 3 suite consists of three applications, core, Postorius, and HyperKitty, which might or might not be installed, and if installed might or might not be running on the same host. Core in turn depends on the MTA and starts a bunch of qrunners. Any of the above might fall over on its own. (I don't think there's any way to check on the health of a particular qrunner from the net, though.) > Or, if not, is there a way of stopping Django from sending out the > emails? There probably is, but I don't know it. Mark might, but if not asking on a Django list would be a better place.
