before next release: disable backscatter in default installation
by Jo Rhett Nov. 7, 2022

Nov. 7, 2022

Hi. There's a fairly simple problem here that needs to be addressed. And it's mostly a documentation/install problem. I'm hoping we can get this resolved before the next release.

Postorius can't connect to Mailman core.

@abompard I don't know what's going here. I received the notice below from GitLab. I tried to go there to comment that this looks like a duplicate or at least very similar to <https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/issues/294> which was fixed about 3 weeks ago, but GitLab gives me a 404 and says there is no issue #310. -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: Mailman | The unsubscribe process using the -leave address does not work because of an `assert` in the code (#310) Date: Thu, … [View More]

No action needed this time. pastebin is an excellent service for on-the-fly discussions, such as draft patches, but … [View More]
