In addition to implementing the frontend the way I want it (expose/hide feature that are useful/unuseful to our users), I want to fully customize the visual appearance to represent the SaaS offering properly. This is exactly the reason why Mailman core was decoupled from archiving and the web UI. HyperKitty and Postorius were developed because we knew that almost no one would use Mailman core without archiving and a web management UI, but we always hoped that others might develop and contribute other web based archiving and management interfaces. Brian Carpenter of EMWD who tragically died of COVID did exactly that with his Affinity and Empathy PHP applications that interface with Mailman core via the REST API. EMWD hosts lists that use those interfaces, and had Brian not died, some version of those might be open sourced, but his initial thrust was to keep them proprietary for his business reasons. There is an early description of Brian's concept for Affinity at https://gitlab.com/mailman/affinity. > *** we're not try to hide that Mailman is in the equation, just how the overall interface is visually represented *** > > That all being said, on a slight segway... Aside from using the REST API, is it practical or possible to manipulate the database directly? That is, in doing so would it just work or are there extra moving parts when an API request is issued? It probably is possible, but I would definitely discourage it. The REST API should provide everything you need without your having to reimplement everything it does. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

Yes, those are all samples.

Given that it is in MAILMAN_ARCHIVER_FROM as defined in settings_local.py, the only thing I can conclude is that the Django settings actually used is not the settings.py you think it is. I don't know offhand even what wsgi service is used in the docker container or how it is configured, but it needs to set its working directory to the directory containing settings.py. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

Postorius since 1.2.3 does not show subscription requests waiting user confirmation, only those waiting moderator approval. Thus, if the list's subscription policy is confirm or confirm then moderate, the subscribing user will be sent an email requesting confirmation. If the user hasn't answered that email, the request is pending user confirmation, and since 1.2.3, you won't see it in Postorius. [Update: this is fixed in 1.2.4] > What to do? 1) have the user find the confirmation request email and confirm, or 2) wait for the request to expire (default 3 days) 3) using mailman shell or the REST api or direct interaction with the database, find the token and confirm it. A shell example is ``` mailman shell -l your.list.id Welcome to the GNU Mailman shell The variable 'm' is the your.list.id mailing list >>> util = getUtility(IPendings) >>> list(util.find(mlist=m,pend_type='subscription')) ``` This returns a list of items like ('hex_token'), {'token_owner': 'subscriber', 'email': 'user(a)example.com', 'display_name': 'Jane User', 'when': '2019-04-09T01:26:08', 'type': 'subscription', 'list_id': 'your.list.id'}) You then do ``` >>> util.confirm('hex_token') ``` Note that https://gitlab.com/mailman/postorius/issues/314 which was responsible for removing the subs waiting user confirmation from the Postorius listing suggested "there could be a different place to see the ones pending user approval, so that a moderator can look and/or delete those.", but that hasn't been done.
