== Postfix Aliases ==
Apart from mailman's aliases. We have some system wide aliases for sending and receiving postfix related issues and warning. Those are kept in ''/etc/aliases'' .
 
Once done editing please run command `''newaliases''`
 
== Generate DKIM for new domains ==
 
We use 'opendkim'[http://opendkim.org/] to implement DKIM.
To generate DKIM keys, use <code>opendkim-genkey -b 4096 -h rsa-sha256 -r -s <selector_name> -d <domain_name_of_this_list> -v`</code>
<br />
We don't have any format on selector naming. Pick something related to this list(for eg: the selector for the domain lists.fsci.org.in  is <code>lists</code> what we used).
After generating the DKIM keys, we will get two files.
* <selector_name>.private - which contains the private signing key.
* <selector_name>.txt - which contains the DKIM TXT DNS record for that domain.
<br />
Now, create a folder under <code>/etc/opendkim/keys/<domain_name_for_this_list>/</code> and move the above file to that location.
<br />
Create an entry for the newly created domain in /etc/opendkim/KeyTable as well as /etc/opendkim/SigningTable
<br />
On /etc/opendkim/KeyTable
<selector_name._domainkey.<domain_name_of_this_list> <domain_name_of_this_list>:<selector_name>:/etc/opendkim/keys/<domain_name_of_this_list>/<selector_name>.private
eg: lists._domainkey.lists.fsci.org.in lists.fsci.org.in:lists:/etc/opendkim/lists.private
On /etc/opendkim/SigningTable
<domain_name_of_this_list> <selector_name>._domainkey.<domain_name_of_this_list>
eg: lists.fsci.org.in lists._domainkey.lists.fsci.org.in

'''Worker Proxy setup'''
in /etc/rspamd/local.d/worker-proxy.inc   
# local.d/worker-proxy.inc
milter = yes; # Enable milter mode
timeout = 120s; # Needed for Milter usually
upstream "local" {
  default = yes; # Self-scan upstreams are always default
  self_scan = yes; # Enable self-scan
}
count = 4; # Spawn more processes in self-scan mode
max_retries = 5; # How many times master is queried in case of failure
discard_on_reject = false; # Discard message instead of rejection
quarantine_on_reject = false; # Tell MTA to quarantine rejected messages
spam_header = "X-Spam"; # Use the specific spam header
reject_message = "Spam message rejected"; # Use custom rejection message
'''Disable DKIM Signing on rspamd'''
To disable DKIM signing (i.e. you use OpenDKIM, or signing is done elsewhere- ie, that's our case)
# local.d/dkim_signing.conf
enabled = false;
and restart rspamd service after that.
'''Setting up the WebUI'''
<br />For using the location, <webroot>/rspamd,
<br />Add the following on /etc/mailman3/nginx.conf
location /rspamd/ {
    proxy_pass      http://localhost:11334/;
    proxy_set_header Host      $host;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}
Now, check nginx syntax, restart the nginx service and check the status.
<br/> After restart, you can visit <webroot>/rspamd and login with the previously created password.
<br />
'''Setting up rspamd Worker proxy config on postfix'''
<br />Rspamd Worker proxy config
<br />On /etc/postfix/main.cf
Don't forget to disable existing  configs for the same below
##
## Spam filter and DKIM signatures via Rspamd
##
smtpd_milters = inet:localhost:11332, local:/opendkim/opendkim.sock
non_smtpd_milters = inet:localhost:11332, local:/opendkim/opendkim.sock
milter_protocol = 6
milter_mail_macros =  i {mail_addr} {client_addr} {client_name} {auth_authen}
milter_default_action = accept
and then restart postfix.
Finally, enable rspamd service if everything seems to work properly
<code>$ sudo systemctl enable rspamd</code>.
== Remove spam confirmation requests ==
Too many pending subscription requests can slow down[https://gitlab.com/mailman/postorius/-/issues/417] list index. Updating postorius is how to fix this. But in case there's no other way, and removing those requests through frontend [https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/-/issues/779#note_423132958] is impossible, this can be done (GNU Mailman 3.2.2 (La Villa Strangiato)):
$ sudo mailman shell -l listname.lists.fsci.org.in
Welcome to the GNU Mailman shell
The variable 'm' is the listname@lists.fsci.org.in mailing list
>>> from zope.component import getUtility
>>> from mailman.interfaces.pending import IPendings
>>> pendings = getUtility(IPendings)
>>> plist = []
>>> for p in pendings.find(m):
...  plist.append(p)
...
>>> len(plist)
2047
>>> # Let us save the spammer email and when they signed up for analysis
>>> import csv
>>> with open('spam.csv', 'w', newline='') as csvfile:
...    spamwriter = csv.writer(csvfile, delimiter=',')
...    for p in plist:
...        spammer = p[1]
...        spamwriter.writerow([spammer.get('email'), spammer.get('when'), spammer.get('display_name')])
...
>>> # Now on to actually removing spam
>>> from mailman.interfaces.workflow import IWorkflowStateManager
>>> workflow = getUtility(IWorkflowStateManager)
>>> for p in plist:
...    token = p[0]
...    pendings.confirm(token)
...    workflow.discard(token)
...
>>> # Now, we have to commit this transaction to database
>>> from mailman.config import config
>>> config.db.commit()
