So, the ones you own, moderate, subscribe to. That's correct, but it's tricky. If as an owner of an unadvertised list, you go to a URL like https://www.example.com/postorius/lists/ you will see the unadvertised list(s) that you own as well as any that you are a member or moderator of.

That should be good. It will say 1.3.13 as the version hasn't been updated in GitLab. Is an old page cached somewhere?

The best place for such a request is > https://gitlab.com/mailman/postorius/-/issues/new It's reasonable, but for unsubscribe Postorius invokes the mass remove REST API. So to report progress there it would require new code in Mailman and mailmanclient to report progress, or Postorius could use an explicit loop over addresses as mass subscribe does -- which would be noticably slower, I suspect. Periodic heavy use of mass operations is a common use case at universities. It's not uncommon for each term to see thousands of list averaging scores of subscriptions or unsubscriptions, with both number of lists and average roster size spike at academic year transitions when departmental and university-wide lists turn over. We should look at speeding up mass operations. I suspect internally Mailman is looping over individual addresses, probably creating a separate RDBMS transaction for each one. It should be possible to batch these, allowing the RDBMS to optimize its own table locking. Perhaps for the university use case it would make sense to even have Mailman multiplex these transactions across multiple lists being accessed at the same time. Steve

This is https://gitlab.com/mailman/postorius/-/issues/563 it was fixed by https://gitlab.com/mailman/postorius/-/merge_requests/930 which was later extended by https://gitlab.com/mailman/postorius/-/merge_requests/945 however these are not available until Postorius 1.3.14 which is not yet released. These add a setting, POSTORIUS_DEFAULTS, which can be used to set these defaults. E.g., setting POSTORIUS_DEFAULTS = {'mass_subscription_pre_verify': True} will set the default for Pre Verified to True. So far, the only defaults that can be set in this manner are mass_subscription_pre_confirm, mass_subscription_pre_approve, mass_subscription_pre_verify and mass_subscription_invite and those not until Postorius 1.3.14, but more may be added. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

I cannot find the detail of the held message from database tables yet. Not sure how the hold date was stored at this moment. As you note later, the hold time is stored in UTC. It should be rendered in Postorius held message view in the timezone that you have set in your user-profile. The timezone conversion is in Django. It is defined in the template as ``` {{ msg.hold_date|datetime_parse|localtime|date:"DATETIME_FORMAT"}} ``` where msg.hold_date is the time in UTC. I think the issue is that while msg.hold_date in in UTC, it is a naive datetime.datetime object (see https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.0/topics/i18n/timezones/#interpretation…) so if your Django setting for TIME_ZONE is Asia/Hong_Kong it is interpreted as UTC +0800 so that subtracts 8 hours and then conversion to your profile timezone if Asia/Hong_Kong adds 8 hours back. I think if you set `TIME_ZONE = 'UTC'` you will get the behavior you expect. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

[...] While this does appear to solve the problem on my test deployments, a challenge that I'm left with is how to automate it. Our community takes an "infrastructure as code" approach to all the services we run for our projects, and we make sure that we can automatically bootstrap every system from scratch into a working state. Unfortunately, I'm not having any luck finding an API or CLI which I can use to create sites and domains rather than manually doing it in the Django admin WebUI. Does such a thing exist, or an I going to need to resort to directly performing database inserts (which I'd rather avoid since it could break if the schema changes).
