Sorry I can't reproduce it, after dropping and recreating the database the error went away, but it was in alembic and it was talking about an invalid revision and gave a long hex string. -- Your life is like a penny.

Official source for MailmanClient is at gitlab.com/mailman/mailmanclient and it doesn't have a CLI, the Github project you linked to says right on the top that it is not official project (Thanks for that Rajeev!). Also, I would say not to use this client to remotely access Mailman, the REST API is not meant to be exposed over internet (unless you have a VPN or other sort of setup to securely access the box remotely). -- Abhilash Raj maxking(a)asynchronous.in

It is a Python > pickle of a message object. There are 4 emails stored into this folder. 3 of them are spam, and the last one is a legitimate email. This is annoying that such emails could accumulate and stay into var/archives/hyperkitty/spool/ forever, causing more and more hyperkitty errors. Any idea how to make their processing more error proof? Thanks, _g.

Yes, that is what is happening, but only for messages from the steve@stevebrown address. I can send a screenshot and a .txt of the headers (of the message after sent back to me from MM3 and long!) but didn't see a way to do that on the archive page. Do I need to post from my gmail address? One clue I hadn't spotted before was a bodyhash_mismatch warning in the headers. No idea where that came from. Doesn't appear in emails from me to other addresses. Steve

Mark, I completely understand your situation as a core developer with limited time and lots of requests from all directions. Being a Python programmer myself, I would be happy with a consistent documentation of the relevant Python classes to be able to develop own applications. The isolated code snippets in the mm3 documentation are not too helpful. Such a documentation would possibly remove some of the workload you feel by constantly answering admin questions.´ When you look at the documentation of the Qt library you know what I mean. Thank you again for this great project! Cheers, Eggert

Well I can't dictate that to my list owners and there is no confirm token sent with the moderation notice.
