Mailman 3 March 2016 - Mailman-Developers

Should the thread-to-issue tool join threads?

March 18, 2016

Hi, I have a little question about the GitLab integration project. There might be some messages that were not included in the main thread because the sender sent the message manually by setting the subject as "RE: Something". Should the tool try to find and include these messages?

GSOC 2016 - Project Proposal
by Aayush Maini March 17, 2016

March 17, 2016

Greetings, I am Aayush Maini, a student of IIIT-H and I would like to propose an idea for GSOC 2016, under The GNU Mailman. I have got the build working and submitted a patch for Postorius currently pending for review. I have worked on mailman core and have a decent understanding of Postorius too. The basic proposal goes along viz. "Making the services offered by the Postorius available via a browser extension/plugin". I thought it would be nice to have the functionality offered by the … [View More]

Correcting the display name in the recipient address

This is regarding the solution for issue #194 <https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/issues/194> in mailman-core The discussion for it can be found in the related merge request here <https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/merge_requests/104> As suggested by Barry, the discussion has been shifted here. Whenever an address is subscribed to a mailing list, we need to assign a recipient name to the outgoing welcome mail. eg. To: Anne <anne(a)example.com > 'Anne' being the recipient name.… [View More]

Advice needed on Production MM3 install
by Mark Sapiro March 16, 2016

March 16, 2016

Some of you may have seen my posts on mailman-cabal, but I am installing a production instance of Mailman 3 on lists.mailman3.org in order to support initially a Mailman 3 users list. The first question is should it be mailman-users(a)mailman3.org or mailman-users(a)mailman3.org. The former is more of a recognition that Mailman 3 is now Mailman while the latter offers less possibility for confusion with mailman-users(a)python.org. Then, I suppose it could be just users(a)mailman3.org, but we … [View More]might want to support other 'users' lists in the future. Opinions welcome. The next thing is I'm having much more difficulty than I anticipated, probably in large part because I haven't followed Postorius and HyperKitty development that closely. I have lots of things I think I should be able to do in Postorius and I can't and I don't know if the issue is Postorius or my installation. I initially installed mailman-bundler from gitlab. configured it for production, ran buildout and set it up. My initial issue is I couldn't log in to Postorius at all. I had set a Django superuser, but I see nowhere to authenticate as that. The only logins offered were Google, Yahoo and Persona, and they all threw various but similar exceptions. With Abhilash's help, I got past some of that and I can now log in with Persona, but there are still issues with the others[1]. In the process of working through that, I cloned the head of the mailman branch from github and upgraded to that, but Postorius and HyperKitty are still what bundler installed. I got PostgreSQL, Postfix, openDKIM, nginx and gunicorn all configured and that all seems good. In the process of working through some other issues, I enabled SSL in Django with certificates I got from Let's Encrypt. That has led to a current issue which is if a list's archiving is on, I can't post. The post gets shunted in archiving because somewhere in the process the runner tries to make an SSL connection to 127.0.0.1 and the certificate is only valid for lists.mailman3.org, mirror.list.org and mirror.mailman3.org[2]. I'm sure there must be a way to change the connect to use lists.mailman3.org, but I don't know it. Then perhaps my biggest issue is I can't do any admin tasks in Postorius other than on my own lists. I can't create lists or domains or edit domains or anything like that. I even set my user record is_server_owner flag True, but that didn't help. I managed to do some of what I needed via the mailman create and mailman shell commands, but I'm sure I should be able to do that in Postorius, but I can't log in as superuser and it doesn't seem to care that I'm a server admin. Maybe I need to upgrade Postorius and HyperKitty. Which is the next advice I need. I'm thinking of trying to start clean and I have questions. Is it better to use bundler and then upgrade what it installed or just install the separate pieces and try to knit them together or should I maybe just upgrade Postorius and HyperKitty in place as I did the core. If I start clean will running the bin/mailman-post-update script initialize all the data or will there be residue in the PostgreSQL database that may cause problems. Sorry for the long post, but I really need advice. I won't be getting back to this until Wed Evening US Pacific time, so there's time to respond <wink>.

Thanks for your reply. I am currently studying the existing implementations mhonarc and mailarchive (both in src/mailman/archiving) and also Hyperkitty. Someone also mentioned in the thread that studying the GNU mailman architecture in the "The Architecture of Open Source Applications" would be helpful. Is that applicable to this scenario? I will come up with a draft implementation on Thursday.
