I’ve since removed the patch, as I’m still looking for an answer and might as well let it queue up again. Per the above, template access is definitely the problem. > The only thing that is making me ponder at the moment is that the list owners setup a template for list:member:regular:footer in postorius. It appears that each list has a copy of that file. The modifications I see in postorius are not in their …/templates/list/<listname>/en/list:member:regular:footer.txt file. Are their modifications stored somewhere else and causing the problem? Templates set in Postorius are stored in the database in the postorius_emailtemplate table. At the same time an entry is made in the template table with a uri to retrieve the template from a Postorius API. The uri is something like http(s)://host/mailman3/api/templates/list/LIST-ID/list:member:regular:footer where the http(s)://host part is from the setting for POSTORIUS_TEMPLATE_BASE_URL. The issue is that uri is not retrievable probably because the setting for POSTORIUS_TEMPLATE_BASE_URL is wrong. You should look at the uris in the template table in the database and figure out what they should be, probably by trying to retrieve one in a browser with the scheme and host what you actually use to access Postorius. Once you figure out what the correct uri is you can set POSTORIUS_TEMPLATE_BASE_URL appropriately, but this won't fix the existing template table entries. You can fix those manually in the database or you can delete and recreate the templates in Postorius after fixing POSTORIUS_TEMPLATE_BASE_URL and restarting the Mailman web service. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

What is your setting in settings(_local).py for POSTORIUS_TEMPLATE_BASE_URL? It looks like you have the default POSTORIUS_TEMPLATE_BASE_URL = 'http://localhost:8000' It should be the base URL for connecting to Postorius. I.e., if you normally connect to Postorius via https://www.example.com/postorius, it should be https://www.example.com You say Postorius/Mailman is running on port 8001. Mailman core's rest server should be listening on port 8001, but your web server can't proxy to Postorius on that port. Normally, the wsgi server that supports wsgi access to Django (Postorius and HyperKitty) listens on port 8000, at least if it is gunicorn or uwsgi proxied from your web server, or if it's Apache and mod_wsgi, proxying is not involved. Again, it looks like you may be using Apache and mod_wsgi in which case you could have POSTORIUS_TEMPLATE_BASE_URL set to something like https://www.example.com or even http://localhost or http://localhost:80, but not port 8000 if no wsgi server is listening there. Also, the URL is now in the database entry for this template in the postorius_emailtemplate table, so even after you fix POSTORIUS_TEMPLATE_BASE_URL, you'll probably have to delete and recreate the template in Postorius. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

If I post your test via email rather than `mailman inject`, I see the issue. I'm working on figuring out why. (Sorry for spamming you with test Ccs.) I'm at a loss to explain why `mailman inject` doesn't show this.

[MM3-users] Re: How to prevent members to attach executables (exe, bat, ...) to the emails sent to list

I found some hints under: > https://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/stable/build/lib/mailman/handlers/docs/fi… > > but still not clear how to do it for all type of excecutables. There are four list settings that affect this. They are pass_types, pass_extensions, filter_types and filter_extensions. the pass_* settings specify message parts the list will accept while the filter_* settings specify message parts the list won't accept. The page at <https://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/stable/src/mailman/handlers/docs/filterin…> only discusses filter_types and needs updating for the others. Filtering by extension only works on message parts that have an associated file name. Thus, while you can add things like 'exe', 'bat', 'cmd', 'com', 'pif', 'scr', 'vbs' and 'cpl' to filter_extensions, it won't be completely effective. A better approach is to use MIME types[1] and only allow those you want. For a discussion list, a reasonable set is what this list uses: multipart message/rfc822 text application/pgp-signature This will accept any multipart and message/rfc822 parts for further analysis and ultimately accept only text/* and application/pgp-signature elemental parts. If you want to accept images and pdfs, you can add image application/pdf See <https://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/media-types.xhtml> for a list of all registered MIME types. Note that these are all of the form main_type/sub_type and putting just main_type in *_types passes or filters all subtypes for that maintype. [1] You can use both, e.g. filter_extensions to remove those you don't want and pass_types to accept the MIME types you do want. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

Make sure that the one you choose provides “email” as part of user data, otherwise it won’t work with Mailman. e.g. Twitter doesn’t give out emails. > > What if a user's email address changes on the CAS server? Will their email address in Mailman 3 be updated the next time they log in? If django-allauth-cas can't provide an email address, that user can't use it for Mailman authentication because authentication is for a registered email address. The way it works is a user registers an email address with Mailman. Once the address is registered, but not before, it can be linked to one or more configured django-allauth providers, and once linked, the user can log in to the Mailman web UI via a linked allauth provider. If the allauth provider doesn't supply the user's email address, I don't think it can be linked, but even if it can, it won't work. If the user's CAS email changes, the user would have to add the new address to her account in Mailman and could then link the new address to the CAS allauth provider. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

The administrivia check is designed to detect messages posted to a list which look like they should have been sent to the list-request address instead. You can turn this check off in Postorius at Settings -> Message Acceptance -> Administrivia. > The only thing in the message I can see is that it mentioned '100 members'. > Is Mailman becoming sentient and developing an attitude? Seriously, I'd > like to know more about this. That's not the reason. The administrivia rule checks the Subject: header and the first N non-blank lines of the first text/plain part of the message for things that look like an email command. I.e., lines that begin with a command word followed by the appropriate number of 'arguments'. Here's the list EMAIL_COMMANDS = { # keyword: (minimum #args, maximum #args) 'confirm': (1, 1), 'help': (0, 0), 'info': (0, 0), 'lists': (0, 0), 'options': (0, 0), 'password': (2, 2), 'remove': (0, 0), 'set': (3, 3), 'subscribe': (0, 3), 'unsubscribe': (0, 1), 'who': (0, 2), } This is actuall not a valid list because it is from Mailman 2.1 and not all the above are valid Mailman 3 email commands, but that's what is checked. The N is the configured value for [mailman] email_commands_max_lines: (default 10) Thus, if the Subject: or one of the first 10 non-blank lines is who are you? the administrivia rule will hit.

Referring to the example below, it seems that your Postfix delivers successfully to the first hop MX of the recipient, but the mail bounces further downstream resulting in an emailed bounce. One thing you can do to help mitigate scoring of bounces of emails due to spam filtering is to set ``` [mta] verp_probes: yes ``` This will cause Mailman to not disable delivery when bounce score reaches threshold, but rather send a probe which hopefully won't be detected as spam and only disable delivery if the probe bounces. > Actual example: > > > * Mailman sent seemly 6 mails to a member on January 6th. > * I see one bouce message D1426CE22A in Postfix log that was delivered back to Mailman > * I see that Mailman is counting the bounce score from 1 to 5, one at the time, but that was day after receiving the bounce, and no other mails have been sent to the user on the 7th nor received as bounce on the 7th.

Yes, flufl.bounce is used to parse messages delivered to the -bounces. There are a lot of hueristic recognizers, but RFC 3464 compliant DSNs should be recognized by the DSN detector which is tried first and which gets the failed address from the report. See https://gitlab.com/warsaw/flufl.bounce/-/blob/master/flufl/bounce/_scan.py#… However, SMTP failures do not result in DSNs to the -bounces address. If recipients are refused at SMTP time, this should result in a message in Mailman's smtp.log of the form ``` <message_id> recipients refused: <mta's message> ``` and we create a fake DSN (see https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/-/blob/master/src/mailman/runners/outgoi…) to be processed as a bounce for the failed recipient. In this case, no parsing of the failed message should occur. I can't explain what happened in your case. It seems that somehow the original post was delivered to the -bounces address and parsed by one of the heuristic recognizers (probably simplematch), but how could that happen? -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
