It can occur when Mailman's out runner can't read a template. You need to check ownership and permissions on mailman/templates in the code tree and Mailman's var/templates directory which probably has permissions errors from running inport21 as root. Also, if you've set any templates in Postorius, they may not be accessable if your setting for POSTORIUS_TEMPLATE_BASE_URL is not good. > May 16 01:48:15 2024 (61252) error opening connection to nntp_host: localhost > [Errno 111] Connection refused > May 16 01:48:15 2024 (61252) NNTP error for list vereinsmitglieder(a)ludothek.de: > [Errno 111] Connection refused Are you gating messages to/from usenet for this list?

Unable to update templates

by Mark

Hi, I'm unable to update the custom welcome template (list:user:notice:welcome) after it's initial creation. When the custom welcome template is created (in Postorius), and a user then subscribed by the list-owner (using mass subscribe), the welcome message is received as expected. However when I update the template, the databases are updated correctly but the Welcome message is still sent with the old template content. mailman.templates mailmanweb.postorius_emailtemplate Additionally, if I delete the template and create a new one the old content still gets sent. I cannot find where this content is written or is being cached. Any clues on tracking this bugbear down gratefully received.

Re: default language ignored

You need to create templates in the desired language. See <http://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/mailman/rest/docs/templates.html> That refers to setting URLs for templates which does work, but the easiest way is to put them in the default search path in Mailman's file hierarchy at $var-dir/templates/. Sitewide ones in $var-dir/templates/site/, Domain specific in $var-dir/templates/domains/ and list specific ones in $var-dir/templates/lists/. For example, a list specific, English language regular (non-digest) message footer might go in $var-dir/templates/lists/mymaillist.example.com/en/list:member:regular:footer > Is it also possible to change the language for a single list? Yes, although that is not yet exposed in Postorius. The list has a preferred_language attribute which you can set via REST or 'mailman withlist' aka 'mailman shell'. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

I think you're correct that it doesn't apply to nginx, but the symptom is not the same. It is not a Debian issue per se. It is an Apache change that got installed with a Debian update, but the underlying issue is with Apache.

The one whose content looks like https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman-web/-/blob/master/mailman_web/urls.py. It is probably in the same directory as your Django settings. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B. Dylan

Mailman 3 MFA with django-allauth[mfa]

by Liam Reilly

Has anyone successfully got MFA working in Mailman 3 with django-allauth[mfa]? I'm struggling to get it working with the limited documentation I could find. (https://docs.allauth.org/en/dev/mfa/index.html) If signed in as a user, I can browse to /accounts/2fa/ to activate MFA, but I was hoping to make it a mandatory part of the Sign Up process. Is there something that needs to be done with the URLs somewhere? This list site is an example of how I'd like it to work: https://mailing-lists.imperial.ac.uk/ Here is what I added to settings.py: #---------------------------------------- INSTALLED_APPS= ['hyperkitty', 'postorius', 'django_mailman3', 'django.contrib.admin', 'django.contrib.auth', 'django.contrib.contenttypes', 'django.contrib.sessions', 'django.contrib.sites', 'django.contrib.messages', 'django.contrib.staticfiles', 'django.contrib.humanize', 'rest_framework', 'django_gravatar', 'compressor', 'haystack', 'django_extensions', 'django_q', 'allauth', 'allauth.account', 'allauth.mfa', 'allauth.socialaccount'] # Specifies the adapter class to use, allowing you to alter certain default behaviour. MFA_ADAPTER = "allauth.mfa.adapter.DefaultMFAAdapter" # Used to override forms.

Re: Emergency moderation and clearing out a lot of held messages

Anything done via Mailman shell is a connection from Mailman core to the database, correct?

That leads me to conclude that the issue isn't network related or specific to AWS RDS. I'm assuming the docker container installation also had all the lists/users? It seems this must be related to a large number of lists/users and we must be doing a number of queries that doesn't scale well. This seems excessive. We'll have to look at the processing to see what we're doing. There have been some recent improvements in scaling. What Mailman core version is this? -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B. Dylan

Re: Is there an option to "disable" a list temporarily? (feature request?!)

by Stephen J. Turnbull

Christian Schneider writes: > All this hustle to accommodate users decomissioning a list and > after three days wanting it back... :-/ I'm curious how often you (or anybody) sees this request. FWIW there are 3 issues related to per-list backups. It's a plausible feature (lots of potential applications), so I just added the below to Mailman's 2026 GSoC page, so maybe we'll get an intern to do it. == Per-list backup == In Mailman 2, the list configurations were stored in list-specific structures as Python ''pickles''. Backup of a single list was just a matter of copying the pickle file. Currently there is no way to extract and restore the configuration and membership of a single list from a Mailman 3 installation. This project would involve picking a format such as a Python pickle or a JSON object, extracting the list-specific data from the backing database, and storing it to a file, as well as reversing the process.

SQL Schema request

Ruth Ivimey-Cook writes: > Is there any way to get a copy of the mysql/mariadb table schema that I > can then pour the existing data into (i.e. I don't want to reinitialise > the db)? I suspect you alread know this, but the backend database schema is entirely implicit in the SQLAlchemy models. There is no function in Mailman to dump out the backend schema, although SQLAlchemy may have one. AAAAaaaannnnddd ... bingo! https://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/14/faq/metadata_schema.html#how-can-i-get-th… Don't know if that does what you need, but it's the best I can come up with without reading tons of code. :-) There's probably a similar function that allows you to dump all the data in an SQLAlchemy-specific format that you can load back in to a different backend and SQLAlchemy will do the schema translation. Also, have you considered that Django keeps an independent set of tables for HyperKitty and/or Postorius? Same comments apply, except that Django has its own ORM. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/ref/django-admin/#dumpdata Finally, don't the backend databases have some sort of "dump schema" command? That might be more useful. Note that I got lucky (yay, Google-fu!) with "DBM dump schema" on the first try so "dump" seems to be the right search term.

Re: Trying to configure a list (hosted)

by paul＠arenson.org

I guess my message wasn't clear? Let me try again. I have not made any list settings or sent mails because I do not want my archive filled with a lot of test mails. I am simply trying to understand a) why there are supposed to be two ways to sign up--one where you just get the messages by email and one where you are able to interact with the archives and send from the web interface. Example, as seen here---> https://list.tokyoprogressive.org/postorius/lists/discuss.list.tokyoprogres… 1) I was told that Subscription / Unsubscription lets you truly register and that just below that 2) "You can also subscribe without creating an account" lLets you just receive emails but not interact with the archives.post from the web. CONFUSION --> Aside from the confusing use of "subscribe/subscription for both, when I tried testing both options, BOTH sets of emails ended up in my members list. If there is a guide (I was told it is not ready), it would help, but anyway: 3) Can anyone help me understand the problem above? 4) Will it go away if I enter my settings? Will my users (this who truly register with a password) be able to get the archives and post from the interface? The next post is about the other issue:
