add / remove / set moderation bit of non-members via mailman shell

by Zaheer Abbas

I have a situation where I need to add / remove 10-20 non-members to a particular list every week and set the moderation bit to 'accept immediately (bypass other rules). I do the above via postorius because I couldn't find a way to do this via mailman shell. Can anyone help me please to achieve the above? I know how to remove all non-members via /opt/mailman/mm/bin/mailman shell -l list.example.com for nonmember in m.nonmembers.members: ... nonmember.unsubscribe() ... commit() I am just having difficulties adding the non-members and setting the moderation bit to 'Accept' Currently I am using Mailman 3.2.2 (La Villa Strangiato) and Postorius Version 1.2.4 so cant use 'postorius => settings -> message acceptance -> id_accept_these_nonmembers' -- Regards, Zaheer

Re: No DBA password when installing Mailman3 with remote database server

Markus Ludwig Grandpré writes: > Dpkg allows to skip database configuration.

The users and databases must be created by a database administrator. After that, any "mailman" command will initialize the core's tables, and the "mailman-web migrate" command creates the Django tables for both Postorius and HyperKitty if mailman-web is installed, or you use the Django "manage.py migrate" command separately in both HyperKitty and Postorius if Debian uses the older installation without mailman-web. After the migrate command, you should use mailman-web or manage.py to issue the collectstatic, compress, and compilemessages commands for HyperKitty and Postorius.

Now it makes sense that it gets redirected and the use of localhost also explains why it didn't show in any of the virtual hosts log files that I was checking until it was redirected. However, I didn't set that value. I edited the template at postorius/lists/testliste.lists.DOMAIN.TLD/templates and there I can just select a template type and then I get one textarea input field for the content. The value in the database is set automatically, when I create a template in postorius (and is also automatically removed when I delete a template there). I can't edit this value without manually changing it in the database. > This is very old. Current Postorius is 1.3.10. 1.2.4 is from February > 2019. The Debian/Ubuntu packages are out of date.

The Debian/Ubuntu packages sure have their downsides but once they work, they update automatically and require very little maintenance.

Mailman core doesn't know anything about archives except where you've told it to send them. Historical note: I'm not saying it was a good idea, but the folks who designed HyperKitty were aiming at the Fedora use-case. There's a fair amount of cross-posting between Fedora lists, so I think this makes sense for them both from the indexing and from the storage point of view. I doubt they were thinking about the hosting perspective. > So I thought if I can have a separate hyperkitty installation per user > without having to duplicate the whole mailman. You could do that, but it requires a separate port or domain for each.

I don't think anybody has gotten into them. > Is is possible for plugins to hook into such settings? Since archiving involves getting the message from Mailman core, yes. Plugins can only deal with that end though. Everything else is controlled by the archiver itself. Without a plugin, you could disable archiving somewhat easily by giving each list a different posting pipeline that doesn't have the 'to-archive' handler in it. This wouldn't stop the list admin from configuring, but ... there wouldn't be any archives there. I don't know if that deserves a smiley. :-/ Unfortunately this would be annoying because you'd have to go in and modify for each list. With a plugin, Mailman core could refuse to configure a archive. However, stock Postorius wouldn't know anything about that. It would just see a "refused" response in the REST protocol, but without modifying Postorius, I suspect it would just log and display an error to the user. And without code changes Postorius can't provide a good UI for that. Steve

Well I am having the same difficulty. *With your statement here, let me ask you this:* 1. If someone subscribes to a public list, are they being notified that a user account is being created (by Mailman 3 core) as part of the subscription process? 2. When someone unsubscribes from mailing list, are they being notified that their data is being retained when they unsubscribe (by Mailman 3 core)? 3. When someone subscribes to a public list, are they being made aware that there is no way, for them, the subscriber, to remove their user data *except* if they also register an account through Postorius and then proceeds to delete that account along with them unsubscribing from a list? 4. Am I correct to assume when someone unsubscribes from all lists, AND deletes their Postorius/Django account, that all data on them is being removed? So please understand that questions 1-3 are for a scenario of a subscriber that is only subscribing to a SINGLE list and has not registered with Postorius/Django. Question 4 is dealing with someone who has multiple subscriptions AND is also a registered Postorius/Django user. *This is what I believe are valid reasons for an expectation that data being retained:* 1. A subscriber who is NOT a Postorius/Django user but has multiple subscriptions to various lists on the same Mailman 3 instance subscribes from a single list. They should expect their user data to be retained because they still have active subscriptions to other lists. 2. A subscriber who IS a registered Postorius/Django user is subscribed to a single list and unsubscribes from that single list but did NOT delete their Postorius/Django account. 3. A combination of 1&2. All I am requesting is that for single list subscribers who are not registered users of Postorius/Django, to have their user data totally removed when they unsubscribe. I simply fail to see how someone could claim a right to data retention when they unsubscribe from the one list that they were subscribed to. This is important to me because almost all of the list members of the lists that I host fall into this category: single list member who is not a registered user of Affinity/Postorius. > If you need help implementing the "delete everything" policy in > Affinity because of some insufficiency in the REST API, let me know > and I will make sure the REST API allows you to do that.

Re: Postorius, Hyperkitty new release candidates

by Abhilash Raj

Hey Everyone, It turned out that we added a lot of bugfixes soon after the rc1 and so I am going to do another rc before the stable release. - Postorius: 1.3.3rc2 Changelog: https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/postorius/en/latest/news.html#rc2 Download: https://pypi.org/project/postorius/1.3.3rc2/ - Hyperkitty: 1.3.3rc2 Changelog: https://hyperkitty.readthedocs.io/en/latest/news.html#rc2 Download: https://pypi.org/project/HyperKitty/1.3.3rc2/ - Django-mailman3: 1.3.3rc2 Changelog: https://gitlab.com/mailman/django-mailman3/-/blob/master/README.rst Download: https://pypi.org/project/django-mailman3/1.3.3rc2/ The major changes between rc1 and rc2 are are mostly bugfixes. One big cosmetic change is Settings page for List owners, which now has a vertical menu on the left instead of horizontal tabs. The major problem with horizontal tabs for settings was that we were running out of horizontal space in our page width, because of which we weren't able to separate out settings in as-many sections as wanted to. Bounce processing for example was a part of the "Member Policy" tab which included subscription/un-subscription policies. Now, we have a new section for "bounce processing" and flexibility to group other settings into a new section for better discovery of so many list settings. Hopefully, this will be the last rc and I'll do a stable release next weekend!

That's still non-conforming to RFC 821, published in 1982. Seriously, those mail clients are garbage and I have no sympathy for their users. We're certainly willing to make some changes to Mailman to make things a little easier for mailing list owners who have to deal with such users, but there's no excuse for using those MUAs in 2023. > https://www.example.com/mailman3/lists/$list_id/confirm/?token=$token, > but he reported 404. If you mean that literally, of course it did. example.com, and its siblings in the org, net, and edu domains, as well as all subdomains, are domains reserved for examples in documentation. They all resolve to the same IP (owned by IANA), which simply provides a web page explaining what those domains are for. There's no Mailman there. :-) For that to get a response from Postorius, at minimum you need to substitute your Mailman web host for "www.example.com", and the list's ID (usually the same as the posting address with "." substituted for the "@") for $list_id. You may also need to change the URL path, depending on the top-level urls.py you use for Postorius. > 2. It is recommended to modify postorius, in order to keep the > logic function of the underlying mailman-core unchanged, More important than the detailed functions of mailman-core are the original requirements and design. Core should handle email (both in and out), and Postorius should handle web requests. It's asking for trouble to have core send mail to confirm subscription requests by mail, and Postorius to send mail to confirm subscription requests by web. Among other things it violates "Don't Repeat Yourself": if we (or you) change the confirmation template in core, we (or you) need to also change the confirmation template in Postorius. But it's very easy to forget, and an annoyance for reviewers to check. It's possible that the other core devs will overrule me on this, but you shouldn't hold your breath waiting for that. I've been very good at channeling the consensus of the devs for around 20 years now. :-) Steve
