  Ah!  That worked perfectly.  Is it obvious that I'm new to Django? ;)

  That makes sense.  I was not aware that restarting Mailman would not
restart Django.

  Thank you again, Mark, for your time.  I appreciate your help.

You need to run the Django management command 'shell', e.g.
'django-admin shell' or 'manage.py shell' or however you spell it. This
will give you a python shell and you enter the commands at the '>>>'
prompts.

Rebooting will do it. Restarting Mailman won't as this is a Django
setting, not a Mailman setting. How to update that without a reboot
depends on how you run your Django wsgi app. With mod_wsgi, just
touching the wsgi.py file will do. With gunicorn, I just restart
gunicorn. I'm not sure about uwsgi, I don't use it, but see
.

  Oops, my apologies, thank you for the heads-up.  I will subscribe over
there shortly.

  The problem isn't actually Solaris so much as it is SPARC.  There's no
SPARC back-end for Node.js, and the Node.js people don't seem interested
in supporting that platform; apparently they think SPARCs are old or
something. (There were SPARC processors in 1995...but not all SPARC
processors are from 1995!)

  I think there's a better shot at it now, since they've made it
portable enough to run on ARM, but still.

  Ok, thanks for the pointer.  I hate to as a stupid question, but how
do I actually run that snippet?  At an REPL prompt I assume, but are
there imports, etc?

  Perfect!  That worked.  I could've sworn I set that last night and it
didn't work, but perhaps I hadn't restarted Mailman. (it was late..)
But I rebooted the VM this morning to install some patches.

  Thank you, Mark, for your time and assistance.

A much better list for Mailman 3 is mailman-us...@mailman3.org
.
Several Mailman 3 developers don't read this list. Also, have you tried
installing Mailman 3 on Solaris? It should work although there may be
some dependency gotchas. If you do succeed and it's not straightforward,
we'd appreciate your feedback.

That is

DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL = 'postorius@localhost.local'

in your Django settings.py. Put your desired override in settings_local.py.

[Mailman-Users] deleting archives, default sender addresses

[Dave McGuire]

  Hi folks.  I'm a longtime Mailman 2 user, working with Mailman 3 for
the first time (specifically v3.1.1) and things are going pretty well so
far.  I don't particularly like having to run it under Linux (we're a
Solaris-based outfit) but I bit the bullet and built a VM for it.

  I've hit two little snags, though.  First, I created a test list and
exercised it a bit, then deleted it...the archives are still in
Hyperkitty, though.  How can I delete those?

  Second, address confirmation emails are coming from
postorius@localhost.local.  I've dug and dug, and I've not been able to
override it.  There are numerous archived forum posts about this, and
none of the proposed solutions I've found seem to work.  Help?

 Thanks,
 -Dave
