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.

The current situation with Postorius >=1.3.3 and Hyperkitty >=1.3.3 is for HyperKitty, FILTER_VHOST = True works.

". The addition of the footer is done by mailman/handlers/decorate.py. In the plain text case the message body is converted to unicode, the unicode footer is appended to the body and the new body is encoded for transmission. The encoding is the first of the list's character set, the incoming message's character set or utf-8 which produces no error. In the case where the incoming message is not a single plain text message part, the footer is added as a separate MIME part with the unicode footer encoded in the list's character set with errors='replace'. This is what produces the '?' characters. I suspect this happens because the list's preferred_language is 'en' with character set us-ascii. try running Mailman's bin/mailman shell -l your_list@domain at the prompt enter m.preferred_language if the response is not <Language [lt] Lithuanian> do m.preferred_language = 'lt' and then control-D to exit. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

I have found no other ways, though. Or you may wish to set the owners/moderators subscriptions to "Default processing" which will still apply subsequent rule checks. I.e., set Default action to take when a member posts to the list to Reject (with notification) and set an appropriate notice (currently can't be set in Postorius - set it via 'mailman shell') and set Default action to take when a non-member posts to thelist to Discard or perhaps Reject but this creates backscatter. Then ordinary members have Moderation set to List default and owners/moderators have it set to Accept or Default. The problems with this are sall the owners/moderators need to be subscribers and there are maintenance issues with adding/removing owners/moderators. A better way to do this by sharing a "moderator password" for the list among the authorized posters. See <http://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/mailman/rules/docs/approved.html> for how this is done to pre-approve posts. Then set the list to Discard/Reject all posts, and people who know the "moderator password" can still post. There is still an issue in that the password needs to be changed and redistributed when people become unauthorized, but this is more secure as regular moderation can be fooled by spoofing the sender. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

This happens on the Hyperkitty sign-up page: /accounts/signup/ , with the errors being "A user is already registered with this e-mail address." and "A user with that username already exists.". I am assuming this is a well-known limitation, which would require a serious internal redesign to fix; correct? These user registrations and logins are Django things so yes, they are global within the Django instance. > I was able to successfully login in the browser to a vhost using my user credentials from the original vhost (the one where the account was created) (the password was not auto-filled, of course, because of a different domain name). But how safe is this? How about subscribing to lists, posting etc.? Is this going to mess things up somehow? I don't think it's a problem. The user is a Django user for the web UI. The fact that there is or isn't a Django user with a particular email address has nothing to do with whether that address can post to a list. The user can subscribe to lists or not. The user can manage her subscriptions for lists to which she is subscribed and can subscribe to lists or not as controlled by list settings. Basically, registering as a user allows you to authenticate as that user for the web UI only. If you wanted to separate these user registrations by vhost, you'd need to run separate Django instances for each vhost, but I don't see a need to do that. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

I have the same issue on mail.python.org where we have both Mailman 2 and Mailman 3 lists @python.org. and python.org is a virtual_alias_domain. I have a group of MRs for a branch that implements "alias_domains" to deal with this. Basically it works by creating another (virtual_alias_maps) postfix_vmap mapping to map list addresses @python.org to addresses @x.python.org. Then the postfix_domains and postfix_lmtp maps have the x.python.org domain and there is a patch to mailman/runners/lmtp.py to map the x.python.org domain back to python.org. The various MRs are <https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/merge_requests/202> for the core, <https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailmanclient/merge_requests/18> for the REST bindings used by Postorius and <https://gitlab.com/mailman/postorius/merge_requests/186> to be able to set an alias_domain via Postorius. That's not all implemented at mail.python.org. What's there is the basic Postfix config, a bash script the generate the new mappings from the old and a simple patch to mailman/runners/lmtp.py. So, the bottom line is it can be done and it's in process, but it won't really be supported until Mailman 3.2. In the mean time, you just need to have a separate domain for your lists that isn't a virtual_*_domain. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
