That's fine but it doesn't explain why I have received messages that were built by a template for some subscription requests. In other words, why is there a template being used in some instances and on others a "mailman notify command" is being used? Are there different methods for people to use to request a subscription? Please understand that I'm new to mailman 3 and don't have knowledge of its source code. From reading some of the messages that have been sent by this list, I assume it's written in python, which is a language I have not year learned. I'm asking this because I help to administer several different lists and there are some other moderators who have very limited technical skills. I try to help them the best I can, which is why I'm trying to understand why these messages seem to differ so that I can explain it to others. By the way, Brian at EMWD has been extremely helpful to me already and, as he stated, he informed me that this is an issue with Mailman 3 so I thought I'd try getting the answer directly from this group. Thank you for your time. I do recognize and appreciate the time and effort that goes into creating and maintaining open source software.

Thank you, Mark. I have Postorius Version 1.3.4 I see no 'Users' in Postorius, but I do see it in Django. I'll assume that my Postorius is out of date and will take steps to update it.

Each of these has a display name. Removing users from lists does not remove these records. If you have recent Postorius, you should have a `users` item at the top of Postorius pages. Go there, find the user and click "Manage". You can change Display Name there. Otherwise, in `mailman shell` for example ``` >>> usr = getUtility(IUserManager).get_user('user(a)example.com') >>> usr.display_name = 'First Last' >>> for adr in usr.addresses: ... adr.display_name = 'First Last' ... >>> commit() ``` -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

There is the message-id as part of the mail itself, and set by the user. That one is not unique, e.g. if a mail is bounced to the list. Exim has an internal id, and that is also part of the log (also if a mail is delivered to a remote mailserver, the id there is logged). This works fine. However, mailman doesn't have an internal id I can use to follow the message (or at least, it doesn't transfer one to exim upon delivery). I can indeed use the user set message id for following mail. However, I would prefer some internal id, and also to have logged the IDs exim (or probably any other MTA) transmits upon delivering the mails when handing the mails over to the MTA again. (Probably in some format as "mailman-ID recepient MTA-id" so that it's easy for me to grep for message if a user complains.) Regards, Andi

When I follow the thread and print the keys getting from web and in the settings I found that one with single quote and the other not. In the mailman-web.py the value of MAILMAN_ARCHIVER_KEY should be single quoted, **but** the api_key in [general] SHOULD NOT single quoted. Therefore I set my hyperkitty base URL to https://lists.slat.org/mailman's/hyperkitty/ and removed the quote in mailman-hyperkitty.cfg it finally works. Maybe adding a comment to explain it a bit more would help later people not to step on the mine again. Thanks for your help! Regards, Franklin

Yes, sounds valid that something else is (or was) wrong in my environment. I'm new to docker containers and might have overseen something. I now managed it a different way: I used rinetd on the host to redirect connections from docker host ip of a bridged network to 127.0.0.1 to make MySQL accessible in the docker container. This works and avoids mapping the mysqld.sock file into the container. Thanks again Torge

[snip] Ah. I misunderstood you. I thought you meant that I had to tweak *postfix* to get this done. It's not that you weren't clear, it's that when I read the mailman3 instructions, I got the impression that *mailman* would set the alias domain automatically, so I was dead set on munging postfix. This makes more sense, and I can back out of some of the changes I made in postfix, which for the last couple of rounds was mostly flailing about randomly -- I've heard that's often not a good admin strategy. So.. if I need to do it myself, can you point me to what file I need to create/modify in the /opt/mailman/mm tree to set up the alias? Thanks! billo
