So I'd like to confirm: >the two iterations, one telling you you are on a tab, the other telling you you have a link, is a good thing? Would it be better if you got one notification that there is a tab with a link on it? Yes, if we could just get one notification that would be a lot better. Each notification has to be arrowed through, so with the current setup you have to arrow twice to get to the option for the next tab. One better way of navigating the system once you get familiarity with the layout is to get the screen reader to show you all links on a page, then just use the arrow keys to get to the link you want. This doesn't repeat anything and is the way I was navigating in the end after getting familiar with the pages. Andrew.

Re: Mailman3 throws 500 error (unicode encode) when loading held messages in Postorius

by Simon Handfield

Thanks Stephen and Mark for your replies. I have been able to identify a file in the shunt queue that threw a matching error when I performed mailman qfile on it. I moved this file out of the queue in the hope that I would then be able to load the held_messages page successfully. Unfortunately I am still seeing a 500 error on loading the page. I temporarily reenabled debug logging to confirm that the same error was being thrown. I have run a loop over all remaining files in the shunt queue and all the remaining files can be accessed by mailman qfile without error. Assuming that file was the cause are there other steps I need to perform in addition to removing the file from the shunt queue directory? Thank you, Simon. ________________________________ From: Stephen J.

This is frequently a problem created by spam messages. The message should be in the shunt queue. You can examine it with the command "mailman qfile /path/to/message_file.pck". Unfortunately it's not clear from the backtrace where in the message this is: it's at the beginning of a part ("position 8-9") or maybe line, but the part could be late in the message. If it's spam, you can just delete the file (and do whatever else you do about spam, of course). If it's not spam, it would help if you can guess what language and charset are being used in the message, and we can go from there.

A quick search says that Exim is trying to verify that `postorius(a)host.name.com` is a real mailbox (which I am assuming it is not), and rejecting the email coming from Postorius. You probably have verify = sender somewhere in your exim.conf, which is causing this. You can either modify the DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL in your settings_local.py so that it is a real address that Exim can verify, or, you can remove verify = sender from your Exim configuration. 2nd option might not be the best if you want to properly combat spam.

So i set THAT one to NO? allow_list_posts is the name of the attribute in Mailman core. It is exposed in Postorius as "Include the list post header". I.e., they are the same thing. Note however that unless your users are using MUAs to reply by email and their MUAs offer a "reply-list" function for replies to mailing list posts, this setting will make no difference. It is the presence of the List-Post: header in the message that allows the MUA to offer/process the "reply-list" function. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

Re: Postorius no connection to REST API

Since it's not "refused connection" or similar, evidently it's connecting (presumably to Mailman core's REST API) but not getting the "status line" (greeting?) it expects. Now, for a proxy to know what status line to expect, either it's speaking a well-known protocol (such as SMTP or HTTP), or it's part of the same application suite. But Mailman is neither. So I suspect you have your proxy configured to proxy Apache to Mailman instead of the other way round. Or maybe it's proxying from client 37.201.214.82 to Mailman, but it should be proxying from client to Apache. I guess the latter is more plausible, in the former there'd be some kind of triangular relationship among client, Apache, and Mailman, which doesn't fit the model of "proxy". Is either possible? HTH, but if it doesn't ring a bell, say so and we'll try something else. Steve

All of the production instances I have access to are backed by PostgreSQL. Response using Postorius is not instantaneous, but 2-3 seconds is maximum. Also, I don't think I've seen multiple messages with the same treatment in visit in many months (maybe a year), but I don't recall those "feeling" longer than a single message request. > I've done some testing in the pass running Mailman3 in a Docker > container and using a local instance of MariaDB. Even in that > situation I still found the processing slow. I guess since you talk about "10 at once" you have a much larger lists and/or much larger user databases and/or heavier traffic per user and/or more "spam". It would help to know what the scale of your Mailman installation is in those dimensions. I don't think Mailman's Python code is likely to be the bottleneck, rather it's probably database queries. Have you looked at MySQL's logs for queries related to those operations? Steve

I expect the python libraries already support this. We could implement a bind_address setting that would pass to gunicorns --bind parameter anything acceptable to gunicorn, although multiple values are tricky as they apparently require multiple -b/--bind options and a single -b/--bind doesn't support a list of values.
