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. PROBLEM: Mailman comes out of the box ready to backscatter spam people. Yes, it's easy enough to fix. But because it comes stock this way, and is documented to install this way, most people install it to do this. Those of us who work in abuse departments are tired of hearing "well that's how Mailman … [View More]

by Aaryan Bhagat June 28, 2019

June 28, 2019

Currently, I am working on [this](https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/merge_requests/528) PR. A problem arose with some SQLite tests and I made changes to the latest migration file.

Any pointer to this would be helpful. [View Less]

by Ananya Maiti June 26, 2019

June 26, 2019

Hi all, I am trying to test a local installation of mailman suite. I have set-up mailman suite using instructions from [1]. I have also setup postfix as the mail server. Also I have added the absolute path to mailman-hyperkitty.cfg to maiman.cfg in my local setup. But when I create a list from postorious web ui a record for the same is not created in hyperkitty. I have to manually add a record for the same from the Django admin interface. Is this expected ? If not do I have to add any … [View More]

Google's Season of Docs - An Introduction
by Burton Samograd June 25, 2019

June 25, 2019

Hello, Google's Season of Docs is here and I'm thinking I will try and participate. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdGDY4LC_7OknP2zi90JTkH0qDrCm1AQFi… I've got my eye on the MailMan program as of now, something I think is a very powerful way to manage email lists using standard tools. Often the best note system is to write to yourself. Or maybe some other personas. MacOS has postfix installed by default, did you know what? Imagine a swarm of messages going to different … [View More]

Rich Text support in Hyperkitty
by Abhilash Raj June 22, 2019

June 22, 2019

Hi All, I have been recently working on adding rich text support through markdown in Hyperkitty so that emails can be made easier to read. The core design idea in my mind when working on this was building something that doesn't bother writers of plain text emails too much, but allows people to write emails in markdown. The supported syntax is limited Markdown, for example: Hyperkitty's Markdown Syntax ============================ - List items are supported - Even nested ones - Headers … [View More]
