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]

Implementing `bounce_you_are_disabled_warnings_interval` in `Send_Warnings` function.
by Aaryan Bhagat Aug. 20, 2019

Aug. 20, 2019

I am developing the processing of bounce messages as my GSoC project. Currently the `Bounce Functions` are being developed in [this](https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/merge_requests/538) pr on GitLab. There is one `bool` attribute called `bounce_you_are_disabled_warnings_interval` in the `Mailing List` model. It means >The number of days between each disabled notification. Implementing this has a problem - Say in the case of `process_bounces` function which processes the `… [View More]

Cannnot find the processing of bounces as `hard` and `soft`
by Aaryan Bhagat July 21, 2019

July 21, 2019

Somewhat details regarding this can be found in [this](https://mail.python.org/archives/list/mailman-developers@python.org/t… thread also. Currently, in the `mailman/src/mailman/runners/bounce.py` I do not see whether the separation of bounces as `hard` and `soft` is implemented. According to the previous version of Mailman, the `bounce_score` is increased accordingly ( see the `Bounce processing` section of [this](https://wiki.list.org/DOC/Mailman%202.1%20List%20Administrators%20Man… page ) … [View More]

flufl.lock._lockfile.NotLockedError: Already unlocked

I have started working on [this](https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/merge_requests/538) pr. It is regarding various bounce_process functions. Strange behaviour is observed which I am not so sure what or why is happening. Unexpected Traceback error pops up in my terminal. >File "/home/aaryan/mailman/mailman/src/mailman/bin/master.py", line 580, in main > loop.loop() > File "/home/aaryan/mailman/mailman/src/mailman/bin/master.py", line 401, in loop > self._pause() > File "/… [View More]home/aaryan/mailman/mailman/src/mailman/bin/master.py", line 391, in _pause > signal.pause() > File "/home/aaryan/mailman/mailman/src/mailman/bin/master.py", line 267, in sigalrm_handler > self._lock.refresh() > File "/home/aaryan/mailman/venv3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/flufl.lock-3.2-py3.7.egg/flufl/lock/_lockfile.py", line 184, in refresh >flufl.lock._lockfile.NotLockedError: <Lock /home/aaryan/mailman/mailman/var/locks/master.lck [unlocked: 1 day, 6:00:00] pid=7596 at 0x7f54af802320x>: None > >During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred: > >Traceback (most recent call last): > File "/home/aaryan/mailman/mailman/src/mailman/bin/master.py", line 583, in main > os.remove(config.PID_FILE) >FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/aaryan/mailman/mailman/var/master.pid' > >During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred: > >Traceback (most recent call last): > File "/home/aaryan/mailman/venv3/bin/master", line 11, in <module> > load_entry_point('mailman', 'console_scripts', 'master')() > File "/home/aaryan/mailman/venv3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/Click-7.0-py3.7.egg/click/core.py", line 764, in __call__ > return self.main(*args, **kwargs) > File "/home/aaryan/mailman/venv3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/Click-7.0-py3.7.egg/click/core.py", line 717, in main > rv = self.invoke(ctx) > File "/home/aaryan/mailman/venv3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/Click-7.0-py3.7.egg/click/core.py", line 956, in invoke > return ctx.invoke(self.callback, **ctx.params) > File "/home/aaryan/mailman/venv3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/Click-7.0-py3.7.egg/click/core.py", line 555, in invoke > return callback(*args, **kwargs) > File "/home/aaryan/mailman/mailman/src/mailman/bin/master.py", line 585, in main > lock.unlock() > File "/home/aaryan/mailman/venv3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/flufl.lock-3.2-py3.7.egg/flufl/lock/_lockfile.py", line 287, in unlock >flufl.lock._lockfile.NotLockedError: Already unlocked I think some configuration of mailman is conflicting. One point to mention is the `var` was created when I was working on some other branch. Maybe deleting the var and running `mailman start` will solve it? Not many leads are there hence I though best asking this. Pointers to this problem are appreciated Am I missing something here? [View Less]

Next release of Mailman suite is coming up
by Abhilash Raj July 10, 2019

July 10, 2019

Hi All, I am hoping to cut releases of all the Mailman projects in next two weeks or so. I'll probably release an rc-1 for packaging teams to test out before the final version goes out. There are a few new dependencies that have been added to both Core and Web components, so some of them might need work in packaging. This will be mostly a minor version bump (patch version technically for us e.g. 3.2.3 for Core), since there are no backwards incompatible changes. There are new features which … [View More]
