New messages are now being archived as expected, but I still have a few small remaining issues to work out with my MM3 installation: 1) some emails that arrived before I got the archive working are still sitting in: /usr/local/mailman3/mm/var/archives/prototype/[listname]@[domain]/new Strangely this includes at least one email that was archived. Should this directly be cleared as messages are archived? Is there a way to force it to be cleared? 2) Some messages that arrived while I was having other problems with the setup have been stored in: /usr/local/mailman3/mm/var/queue/shunt What should I do to get these messages processed? 3) Similar to above, some messages are in: /usr/local/mailman3/mm/var/queue/bad How can I get these messages processed? 4 Modified the template for “list:admin:action:post” through Postorious and emails that arrived after that were put in the “shunt” queue. I traced this problem to POSTORIUS_TEMPLATE_BASE_URL. By default, it is set to "http://localhost:8000 <http://localhost:8000/>” which is where uwsgi is listening. However, uwsigi is listening for uwsgi:/ not http://. Should I change POSTORIUS_TEMPLATE_BASE_URL to “uwsgi://localhost:8000 <uwsgi://localhost:8000>” or keep http but make it something else? Thanks again for any help anyone can provide. Jeff

[MM3-users] Re: High memory usage

by Stephen Daniel

I'm not an expert, and you might be better served by posting this question in one of the communities that serves sysadmins; however, my reading says that the oom-killer is invoked when the system cannot allocate more virtual memory, not more physical memory. The graph in your screenshot is physical memory usage. The first thing I would try is increasing the size of your swap partition. That adds to the amount of available virtual memory, without the need for actually buying more RAM. If you really need more RAM the result will be that the system stays up, oom-killer stays quiet, but performance is bad and the "si" and "so" columns in vmstat get into the triple digits or higher.

I created a text file as a custom welcome message and chowned it to mailman:mailman, then edited the database record (template.uri) from http://localhost:8000/mailman3/api/templates/list/mytestlist.mydomain.com/l… TO file:///home/mark/welcome.txt This delivered the custom welcome message to the user when subscribed via Mass Subscribe.

I have never used it though, so I am not quite sure about its behavior. What scares me is the possibility of clicking it and then in one fell swoop you've removed ALL the members without a "confirmation". So I was wondering if that button can be modified to have a dropdown selection with No/Yes, so that one has to select the No (backoff) or Yes (blow away!). -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254 7 3200 0004/+254 7 2274 3223 In an Internet failure case, the #1 suspect is a constant: DNS.

IMHO, even in English, “Reject” and “Discard” are not self-explanatory. BTW, no clue about an automatic banishment of emails from discarded messages?
