Re: Could not locate column in row for column 'user.id'

Hi Mark, Thank you for your response. And sorry for not giving you complete information as I am not sue what to share with you. I am using Postgresql-11.7 as my backend database.

They probably won't affect you at all, but just in case: - Mail.app can produce "MUST NOT" mail, specifically it will specify Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable on multipart messages and parts. Mailman (2.1 as well as 3) will reject that. Since it is implemented in the Python stdlib, it's a wontfix for us. It's rare, so just be aware that if somebody's mail gets occasionally rejected at the SMTP level (not Mailman moderation), that might be the cause. I don't have a work around for users. - Mail.app cannot handle encapsulated message/rfc822 parts, at least on handheld devices like iPhone and iPad.

I'll keep that in mind. I don't know if any of the active devs deeply understand HyperKitty (it was a contribution by Red Hat, once they had it where they wanted, the devs became much less active).

That *is* *very* nice. Perhaps that archiver is open source, If not, it might not be hard to substitute similar page templates in HyperKitty.

Well, there's always ESR's how to ask questions: https://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html, but I think of that more as a threat than advice. There are a lot of netiquette posts out there.

Please let me know! First look at https://wiki.list.org/COM/Mailman%20hosting%20services, On that list EMWD was the odds-on recommendation, as the previous proprietor Brian was a frequent contributor to the lists and had a lot of support from their users. They were early adopters of Mailman 3 among hosting services and Brian went to the extent of creating alternative (simplified, proprietary) web UIs for archiving and administration. They also support Postorius and HyperKitty, I think. The principal of the mailman3.com and mailman4.com services (same dude) also regularly contributes on the lists, but I don't have direct knowledge of their services. I have nothing good or bad to say about the other services, I assume most are competent. Most use something like cPanel, and many are not Mailman specialists. Make sure they provide Mailman 3; not all do because cPanel decided to port Mailman 2.1 to Python 3 rather than make all their users migrate to Mailman 3. For custom and managed services, see https://wiki.list.org/COM/Mailman%20consulting%20services. Can't really be specific, because it's not clear at this point what you might want from a managed service that a list hosting service wouldn't provide. If you're not clear about yourself and want to explore what a managed service might do, we can discuss that here to the extent it would be of general interest.

"Justified" depends on who you think the attacker is. Theoretically it's a real possibility, but the space used by an unverified account is not large. I suspect there are always much more painful DoS attacks to worry about. > Is there a way to manage this feature in a secure way? In some sense, I don't think there is. The point of the feature is to allow anybody to sign up without authentication beyond having a usable email address. Either you allow the DoS attack or anything you do is likely to deny service to legitimate users. Brian's approach (cron job purging unverified users) is generally good hygiene, but I don't think it would do much against an deliberate attack. And it shouldn't be hard to automate the confirmation process. I guess you could handle that by purging accounts with no subscriptions or other roles on any lists, but that might annoy a few legitimate users. Probably the best you could do for an open server would be to throttle user creation to say 1 per minute (adjustable to the scale of your site). I don't know if there is currently a way to require admin approval for account creation (as opposed to list subscription). Perhaps we should add that if we don't have it. Steve

Ansible role to install Mailman3

by samuel.d.darwin＠gmail.com

Hi, Before installing the Mailman Suite, I searched on https://galaxy.ansible.com/ for Ansible roles that might automate the whole process. https://github.com/galaxyproject/ansible-mailman3 turned out to be quite good. However, it was slightly out-of-date. I cloned it, made a few bug fixes, and corrected linting errors. Then, going further, added optional basic installations of Nginx, Postfix, PostgreSQL into the role. If anyone is installing Mailman they are welcome to try it out. https://github.com/cppalliance/ansible-mailman3 Now, I see there was a discussion on this very list about https://github.com/rivimey/ansible-mailman3 which was also a fork of natefoo's repo. What are the differences? As Stephen Turnbull wrote: "her (rivimey's) setup may be more complicated than most folks need (IIRC, she has a multi-homed setup with Mailman core, Postorius, and HyperKitty on three separate IPs on a separate subnet in the DMZ, while Mailman was really designed for three Mailman applications running on the same host, along with the database server and MTA)." My version of the role didn't follow the tactic of "three separate IPs on a separate subnet in the DMZ". Mainly, it adds postfix and postgres. Fixes small errors. Also, in a git branch of the repository named mailman3-core, I removed all the web code, so there is a version of the role that only installs core. We will use that while bundling the web components into another Django app, already deployed with docker. There is an open question about maintenance. Among the three roles mentioned here, which is being actively kept up-to-date? Perhaps there are no guarantees from any of them. At this instant in time, https://github.com/cppalliance/ansible-mailman3 is the most recent. Would it make sense to mention these roles in the official documentation? Not sure. Installing mailman3 is complicated and because of that, is a good fit for Ansible.

Mailman 3 deployment: ok to use same database instance for core, web, and hyperkitty tables?

by Stephen J. Turnbull

Hi Serban, s.dobrau(a)ucl.ac.uk writes: > We are currently working on a migration plan for Mailman -> Mailman > 3. We have around over 3000 mailing lists with a total of 50K > members Medium-size. I guess a 2-CPU/4GB Linode or similar should handle the Mailman load (including Postorius and HyperKitty), you might want more memory and maybe more CPUs if you're running the RDBMS on the same host. In the 23k lists/50k users/100k inbound messages/day migration described below, we ended up reconfiguring the VMs 3 times before declaring the system stable. IMO the 2 x 8CPU/16GB final setup was way overpowered for the need, but we didn't try to calibrate finer than that. > and 500 worth of archived data. 500 whats? 500MB, 500GB, 500TB? Assuming 500GB, > Our plan is to have core+web (instance 1) and Hyperkitty (instance > 2). With the archives on the FS local to the Hyperkitty. The archives are in the database as BLOBs. There's no reason to have a separate instance for HyperKitty. It's not obvious to me that you need more than that 2x4 Linode for both Mailman and RDBMS, but if you're going to split it's Mailman vs RDMBS, not Mailman vs HyperKitty. > And all 3 tables (core, web, Hyperkitty) pointing to the same > database on a remote SQL (mysql-enterprise) instance. Using class > mailman.database.mysql.MySQLDatabase (and whatever necessary on the > Django/Hyperkitty instance). Make sure your MySQL database(s) for Mailman are configured with the utf8mb4 option for 4 byte UTF-8 support, or it will choke on emojis and the like. I don't think there are any other gotchas for MySQL. Note there are a lot more than 3 tables in Mailman's databases. The "traditional" configuration is a "mailman" database for core and a "mailmanweb" database for Django and the archives, but Mark says that as the tables are disjoint across Mailman, Django, and the archives there's no reason not to use a single "mailman" database for all of them. I believe that's how this list's host is configured. > Is this feasible, Yes. > if so what would be the recommended compute/storage > requirements. I would start with the spec above (2CPU/4GB). If that doesn't perform, bump it to taste. Mailman itself uses about a GB of RAM for all its runner processes. (I'm not a cloud expert, I just assume you can do that the way we did, very simply.) The Python code (including compiled .pycs) is about 300MB. The database storage requirements are nominal for Mailman and Django (maybe 100MB total in the database for a 23k lists, 50k users installation I worked on recently), and I think the database usage for the archives was approximately 1:1 vs. the Mailman2 mboxes. Mark may have a better estimate on that. There is also the full-text search index for the archives. I recommend Xapian, in my experience Whoosh is really slow.[1] I don't recall offhand how big those were but I would assume they're no smaller than 1/10 the size of the mboxes, and maybe quite a bit bigger. Importing list configurations, users, and subscriptions into Mailman 3 is pretty fast, as long as you're not using the stock Postfix support.[2] The problem is that generating the Postfix alias files for the lists seems to be noticably linear in number of lists, which means it's quadratic for the mass import. IIRC with 5000 lists you'd be looking at >1m/list just to keep regenerating Postfix's alias database, ie 5000 minutes. I found two solutions, both of which required patching Mailman. I hope to get both into the next release. I think we got it down to <5s/list, for 5000 lists that's < 1hr. Importing archives is ... yeeech. The client decided they didn't want a ton of archives anyway (you know corporations, if it's not required by law, shred it after 6 months). I don't recall the size estimate accurately but we kept 6 months X 4500 lists, maybe 100GB out of 2.3TB of mboxes. That took 24 hours to import into HyperKitty, without doing the full-text indexing. I do know the original conservative estimate was 20 days to import the whole 2,3 TB. The full-text indexing took more than a week if I remember correctly. The easiest thing to do is to just do no migration, keep the old archive online, and start populating the new archive when you switch over. It's possible to do both the HyperKitty import and full-text indexing incrementally with a bit of planning. It's also quite possible to migrate incrementally, a few lists at a time. Mailman 2 and Mailman 3 can coexist happily on the same host. Mark can advise on that, I think. The only other advice I remember offhand is that Mailman's outgoing smart host should be in the same datacenter as Mailman. We never did debug it, but the system described above with 23k lists had problems with the out queue stalling when smtp.client.com resolved to a different datacenter 500km away. :-) The problem went away as soon as they pinned the MX to the MTAs in the same datacenter. Footnotes: [1] If you're familiar with another full-text search engine, check the django-haystack docs. Haystack supports several other engines, your preference may be among them. [2] Exim4 does not have this problem. I don't know about other supported MTAs.

But this shouldn't affect the content, even it is text/html, I think, at least not emptying the mail, I think. > You need to examine these settings in mailman shell, e.g. > > list(m.pass_types) >>> list(m.pass_types) ['multipart/mixed', 'multipart/alternative', 'text/plain'] -- Henrik Rasmussen
