Has anyone here on #fedi figured out the correct recipe for dealing with #OpenPGP, #DMARC and #mailman ?

The problem, by default mailman will modify messages and this will break the dkim signature.
gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/-/i

Mailman provides two DMARC mitigation options (other option is reject or discard which is not useful in this case).

1. Replace the from address with list address
2. Wrap original message in an envelope

thunderbird flags 1 and fails 2.

But we ran out of cash and steam early in 2002. However the goal wasn't accomplished, & after our book sold well & I learnt how a free #Mailman mailing list with 8,000 emails can become a paid-for email newsletter with 40,000 emails of which a quarter pay for at ShootingPeople.org (the only other UK filmmaker site to survive the dotcom crash the same time as us), in 2006 Netribution returned after a year's attempts, first trying to build our own CMS, then using Mambo, finally using #Joomla.

A shady new super PAC named for Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg
just spent nearly $20 million on efforts to help Donald Trump appear more moderate on abortion,
but the group won’t reveal where its money comes from until after the election.

The pro-Trump RBG PAC
(a massive insult to the late justice, who hated Trump)
is attempting to use the liberal justice’s legacy to try and boost Trump ahead of the election.

Its website even features photos of Ginsberg and the former president, captioned “Great Minds Think Alike.”

Two advertisements produced by the RBG PAC emphasized Trump’s statements claiming that he would not support a federal abortion ban.

The PAC revealed Friday that it had spent $19,976,000 on digital media, text messages, and printing or postage, according to a disclosure to the Federal Elections Commission.
The majority of that cash, a whopping $17.3 million, was spent on digital media.

It’s unclear who exactly is funding RBG PAC.
The group registered on October 16, which was the last day of the final filing period before Election Day,
according to The New York Times.
Any group active at that time would have had to disclose its donors and vendors, but RBG PAC’s contributors still remain a mystery.

Every cent was paid to a company called Western Creative Group LLC,
a Wyoming-based company with no digital footprint.
Political reporter Roger Sollenberger noted in a post on X that the company had
“never been paid by a federal committee before; principals hidden behind a corporate agent; no online footprint whatsoever.”

Forms for the PAC’s expenditures were signed by #May #Mailman, one of Trump’s former legal advisers.
While in the White House, Mailman worked in the chief of staff’s office and the staff secretary’s office.

After her turn in the Trump administration, Mailman served as the vice president of "Restoring Integrity and Trust in Elections", a Republican-led nonprofit organization that challenges what it views as violations to election law.
She’s currently the director of the "Independent Women’s Law Center".
During an appearance on CNN earlier this week,
Mailman defended Elon Musk’s scheme to randomly give out $1 million to registered voters who sign his “constitutional petition,”
a scheme that earned him a warning from the DOJ.
Mailman said Musk’s stunt was just to get “attention” and that “creativity is warranted in elections.”

Wir brauchen mal euren Input: Mit Uberspace 8 (kein ETA) werden wir keine .qmail-Dateien mehr supporten können, da wir auf ein moderneres Mailsetup wechseln. Das ist ein Problem für Mainlinglisten, die in unseren Guides per Pipe an den MTA angebunden sind.

Es gibt ein Issue zu #Mailman 3, habt ihr Ideen, wie man die Anbindung anders gestalten könnte? Für die Lösung gibt's natürlich ein Goodie von goodies.uberspace.is: github.com/Uberspace/lab/issue

@seldo I run #mailman for our neighbourhood in #Edinburgh (~400 households). I specifically stated when I took it on that I won’t ever make moderation decisions so I’ve been watching the fun from the sidelines. We’ve already split the list in two because of complaints about too many people giving things away. Now some folk want a third list for complaints about bins. Where will the madness end?

Wenn man nicht (wie mein Buchhändler) immer mal wieder aus Versehen alle E-Mail-Adressen ins CC- statt ins BCC-Feld schreibt, ist das eine Möglichkeit für kleine Verteiler.

Richtige Mailinglistensoftware wie das bei Heinlein und Posteo eingesetzte #Mailman hat aber schon noch einige sinnvolle Funktionen wie ein Web-Archiv der verschickten E-Mails (öffentlich oder privat) oder automatisches Bounce-Management (unzustellbare E-Mail-Adressen werden erfasst und im Wiederholungsfall irgendwann automatisch aus der Liste entfernt). Und Empfänger:innen können sich über einen Link in am Ende der E-Mail selbst austragen.

What #mailman 3 hosting companies do you recommend?

I'm looking to set up one mailing list and use my own domain. Around 500 subscribers

I want to pay for someone else to keep up with security updates on the mail server. I have enough servers to maintain in my day job!
