[MM3-users] Bounce of HCL Notes invitations - CloseBoundaryNotFoundDefect() - 501 Message has defects (in reply to end of DATA command)

by Stephen J. Turnbull

Ulf R. writes: > >>> msg.defects > [CloseBoundaryNotFoundDefect()] This means that the message declares a MIME multipart Content-Type, and some part had a "start" boundary line but no "end" boundary line. > Is there a quick fix for this available? No. If the sending software isn't quite broken, this defect means that a chunk of the message was lost somewhere. Ignoring this kind of defect is obviously a bad idea, and any other fix (on the Mailman side) requires knowing precisely what's causing the defect to be detected. > Is it a problem of the python code or the format of the HCL Notes > Server? Nothing's impossible, but I would bet that the problem is in the HCL Notes format. The MIME multipart spec goes back to the early 1980s, and I'm sure the Python Email package implements it exactly by default. I can't say more without the exact MIME structure of a message that causes this error, preferably the whole message (header and body). That said, it might be something that (a) can be worked around with a slightly more lenient existing email policy, or (b) that we could create a new policy that ignores the problem. > In the .eml file I see 25 header fields calles "X-Notes-Item". May > be it is an overflow? Extremely unlikely. All header fields have been successfully processed by the time a CloseBoundaryNotFoundDefect can be detected, and the copy of the field you provide in your followup email is well-formed and contains no interesting content (such as non-ASCII characters, even after decoding the MIME-words). I cannot say why removing the first instance of the field would resolve the error without seeing the whole message. > Any ideas? Not without the full message. If you're not comfortable sending the message to the list, but do trust us enough, you can send a message that causes the error to me and/or Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net>. Regards, Steve

You left out the fact that the distro edition of mailman3 has very poor support because Debian doesn’t know how to do it and the setup is different enough from vanilla that this community has a hard time supporting it as well. You can certainly try to run it, but I’m willing to bet that you’ll regret it. Having tried it myself, I can’t in good conscience recommend it to anyone. The bottom line is that, IMHO, distro works great for fairly mature projects. MM3 isn’t that yet. YMMV, my $0.02, you get what you pay for, etc. - Mark ----- mark(a)pdc-racing.net | 408-348-2878

Where are the custom templates stored? Is there a permissions issue perhaps? A grep for the text of my Welcome message turns up zero results. # grep -Rnw '/' -e 'Test two million for welcome' By the way, in Lynx when the template's URI uses the public ip adress -- ie. http://my-public-ip-address/mailman3/api/templates/list/mytestlist.mydomain… ... it returns a "404 page not found" in Lynx. Given that this is pretty much an out-of-the-box installation (venv installation as per the docs) and everything else works perfectly I'm thinking surely others have encountered this.

You can look at the commit history of the spanish po file to get a detailed history of when and who made the changes. For example: Core: <https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/-/commits/master/src/mailman/messages/es…> Postorius: <https://gitlab.com/mailman/postorius/-/commits/master/src/postorius/locale/…> You find similar histories in all the repos.

Could this be because of the .mo files not being up-to-update? There used to be some strings that were translated incorrectly, but I think we fixed all of those that we found.

The periodic digests do seem to be coming out. I also now have confirmation that the one message in this morning's digest that was from May 4th was also included in the last digest back on May 4th, so it seems that the one message was left behind in the digest queue when the periodic digest was sent. There was one earlier message to the list back on May 4th, before the one that got duplicated, but I can't tell if that triggered a size-based digest to be sent: the logs aren't clear enough on that detail for me to tell.

Given the concerns of privacy advocates, I would say that it would be better to have a separate AUTH_PROVIDERS = ['allauth.socialaccount.providers.google', ...] in settings_local.py, and merge that in to INSTALLED_APPS. Of course removing specific providers would be OK too, but I think that this is a place where "deny all / accept what you want" is appropriate.
