[Mailman-Developers] Re: Working towards a hassle-free Docker deployment

Just to keep anyone looking at this up-to-date:

I've settled for option 2 (installing from source) and fixed the separate-host problem by implementing an ersatz postmap script which calls postmap and then uses rsync to copy the files to the mail host:

#!/bin/bash
# in addition to running postmap, copy the files to our mail server

/usr/sbin/postmap $1
rsync -a $1 $1.db mail.heeg.de::postfix-mailman3/

Of course this requires setting up an entry in /etc/rsyncd.conf  but then it works reasonably well.

The socketmap service is still something I'd like to tackle when I have time.

Cheers, Hans-Martin
