I'm getting alot of IO there though. So messages are being queued for the outgoing runner and then something is done with them. If there are no errors in mailman.log about this and nothing in the shunt queue, they are being delivered to the MTA.

I'll change it right away. The key was in the mailman-hyperkitty.cfg file you posted and was in multiple entries in mailman-web.log. There is some strangeness in the logs you posted.

[MM3-users] How to Increase outgoing mail volume for Mailman 3

by Brian Carpenter

Hello everyone, We had a new client come on board that brought a list that had the largest out-going mail volume that I have ever dealt with. So I did what any sane server administrator would do that is running Mailman 3: I ran to Mark Sapiro for help! Here is what the Sage of all things Mailman counseled me to do: 1. Disabled VERP delivery. VERP can help improve mail delivery by delivering 1 message per SMTP transaction (I think I got that right). Using VERP is counter-productive as it can seriously delay outgoing mail delivery for a high-volume list. So you can use something like the following in the MTA section of your mailman.cfg: [mta] verp_confirmations: no verp_personalized_deliveries: no verp_delivery_interval: 0 2. I configured Mailman 3 to run 4 outgoing runners. The default is 1. This action was the game changer. It allows Mailman to handle 4 incoming messages at a time instead of 1. My client's incoming list volume was high enough where it was overwhelming the single outgoing runner. Here is what I added to the mailman.cfg file: [runner.out] instances: 4 Doing this step immediately solved the backlog in var/queue/out. 3. If you start up with a new server for a list that is high volume then keep an eye out for Proofpoint and Vade Security as they will block your new IP address quicker than Mark Sapiro can say "This is a bug. See <some Gitlab.com url>" Mark, thank you! -- Brian Carpenter Harmonylists.com Emwd.com

Since I do not have the original settings for READ ONLY (this is a hosted version), I want to make sure that these are correct. Can someone comment. I'm guessing what you want and what you are saying First, I think you are saying your issue is that your users are using HyperKitty as a web forum and when replying to a message in an existing thread instead of using the 'reply' action on that message, they use the Start a new thread button. Is that really what you are saying? > MOST IMPORTANT—> What setting makes it a discussion list as opposed to read only? If by "read only" you mean the "Announce only mailing list style" as opposed to the "Ordinary discussion mailing list style" the only difference is that for the Announce only style the list attribute allow_list_posts is False and for the Discussion style, it's True. This is the setting in Postorius -> Settings -> Alter Messages -> Include the list post header an all it does is include or not include the List-Post: header in mail from the list. > ALTER MESSAGES > ----------------------- > Filter content Now YES > > Collapse Alternatives Now yes > > Convert html to plain text Now NO Above are not relevant. > Anonymous NOW YES Are you sure you want this. What it does is replace the From: address with the list posting address and removes all other headers that could aid in identifying the poster. It is intended for lists discussing things such as domestic abuse where people may want to be able to post anonymously. > Include RFC2369 headers Now Yes OK, but not relevant > Include the list post header Now Yes This is what the announce style will set to No. > Reply Goes to List Now No munging > > Pipeline Default > > > > DMARC MITIFGATIONS > ----------------------- > > Replace From with list address > > DMARC mitigate unconditionally Now NO > > > MESSAGE ACCEPTANCE > ----------------------- > > Require Explicit Destination Yes > > Administrivia YES The above are OK, but again not relevan to what I think you're asking. > > Default action to take when a member posts to the list Hold for moderation > > > Default action to take when a member posts to the list Hold for moderation Basically these two settings will hold all posts for moderator action, however if the user has a moderation setting other thgan list default, they won't apply. > OTHER? See the FAQ at <https://wiki.list.org/x/4030685>. This is written for Mailman 2.1 and older and some of the settings aren't relevant or exactly the same in Mailman 3, but it may help.

I think that's correct. I doubt that that's the problem, but if all else fails, you might just remove it. I don't think that would hurt as it's purpose is just todetect on upgrade of the package if you've changed the file from the distributed one and ask you what you want to do about it. > So...

This is a bit strange: Here's how it works. .pyc files are byte-compiled versions of the corresponding .py file. When Python runs or imports from a .py file, it first looks for a corresponding .pyc file and if that is as new or newer than the .py, it uses the .pyc. If not, it uses the .py and byte-compiles it and if it has permission, writes an updated .pyc Except recent Python3 (at least I think 3.5 and newer doesn't use a .pyc in the same directory as the .py Its uses a __pycache__ directory in the same directory as the .py and within that directory a file like in this case settings_local.cpython-37.pyc (or whatever the python version is) In any case, I would remove the existing settings_local.pyc. That can't hurt, but I'm curious what ls -lR /usr/share/mailman3-web/ shows. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
