Disclaimers / important information

  • Any known limitations, constrains or stuff not working, such as (but not limited to):

    • requiring a full dedicated domain
  • Other infos that people should be aware of, such as:

    • No LDAP support yet (apparently under development)
    • Users can also just sign up themselves to manage details
    • Users can use mailing lists without signing up?

Classical admin is available on the page: https://myyunohost.org/

Django admin on: https://myyunohost.org/admin/

General Configuration

Mailman 3 or "The Mailman Suite" is made up of 5 moving parts. See the following documentation for more:

http://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/index.html#the-mailman-suite

On your YunoHost, all the configuration files you need to worry about are in:

  • /etc/mailman3/
  • /usr/share/mailman3-web/

The services you need to manage can be checked with:

  • systemctl status mailman3
  • systemctl status mailman3-web

It is important to note that this package makes use of the mailman3-full Debian package contained in the Debian Stretch backports repository. The default installation assumes the use of a SQLite3 database but the installation script overrides this and uses a PostgreSQL database instead.

Finally, you also configure things through the Django web admin available at /admin/.

Limitations

  • Migrating from Mailman 2.X is not officially supported, sorry. However, there is a manual and which details an experimental process. Please see the documentation.

  • Mailman3 must be configured to use a root domain (https://myyunohost.org and not https://myyunohost.org/mailman3).

  • You must have a HTTPS certificate installed on the root domain.

  • There may be only one installation per YunoHost.
