> I am feeding mailman using fetchmail from gmail.com Have you done whatever changes need to be made to your "fetchmail" settings to enable OAUTH2 authentication for your gmail login? Google disabled third-party application access on March 11th, and requires access to be using OAUTH2 or 2FA now. I have no idea if fetchmail can do OAUTH2, I do know that getmail can do it, but it appears you have to renew things every seven days. Sigh.

[Mailman-Users] mailman user problem
I don't know what happened but mailman is no longer working (CentOS 7). I don't think it is mailman per se but I don't know where else to turn for help. I am feeding mailman using fetchmail from gmail.com which has been working fine for eons. For some reason fetchmail no longer works as I get this error: Old UID list from pop.gmail.com: After considerable research I THINK I have traced the problem to the mailman account since fetchmail runs as mailman via cron. It appears that the crontab for mailman is gone and I cannot 'su - mailman' to run 'crontab' on 'crontab.in'. Although isn't that supposed to happen automatically? Nor can I run fetchmail as mailman. I get the error: This account is currently not available. The passwd file entry is: mailman:x:41:41:GNU Mailing List Manager:/usr/lib/mailman:/sbin/nologin I think it has always been that way but I'm not sure since '/sbin/nologin' means there is no shell and is why I am getting that error. I don't, at this point, see how it could have ever worked. In any case I need some help figuring out why mailman is getting that error. FWIW, if I run 'passwd -S mailman', I get this: mailman NP 2022-03-19 -1 -1 -1 -1 (Empty password.)
