We are running the Sympa mailing list manager - yay! There are some issues to be fixed or reconfigured though.

Plan to Migrate lists 

MX record

Still points to mail.geant.net, which is a single Exim instance in Cambridge and does not do IPv6. Should be changed to the French MX service that David knows about.

Default configuration changes

...

• Visibility of the lists (visibility): should be set to noconceal
• Reply address (reply_to_header): should be set to sender
  
  

 We should create a custom List Type entry to reflect our common defaults. Now we have created 100+ lists and need to go in and edit them all manually...

DKIM and DMARC breakage

Not sure what causes this, but sending a message from a  yahoo.com account to the list causes it to fail DKIM/DMARC for (at least) Google receipients

...

You have been delegated the responsability of list owner by linda.ness@geant.org for list gn4-1-na1-t5@lists.geant.org.

 The word ‘Responsibility’ in first line is mis-typed

Criteria for setting up lists

Good information here:

Misc

• Requests for new lists don't trigger an e-mail to list master.... This is quite urgent as there were a couple of requests sitting in the queue.
• Searching for lists on https://lists.geant.org/sympa/search_list_request gives "Error: file error - recursion into 'search_list.tt2'"
• We want to be able to put personal unsubscription links at the bottom of messages, this should be done by setting merge_feature to On on https://lists.geant.org/sympa/edit_config but there is no way to edit any config on that page (permissions?).
