Sympa for Yunohost

Sympa is a mailing-list manager

Example of live interface

Status

⚠️ This app is ~kinda working but using it in production is at your own risk... The app hasnt been tested in details, is not entirely integrated with YunoHost, and is unmaintained.

⚠️ Also, DO NOT INSTALL ON A SERVER WITH LOW RAM (<1 GB). Sympa takes FIVE HUNDRED MEGABYTES OF RAM constantly, c.f. : sympa-community/sympa#24

If you want a lightweight mailing list manager, have a look at the Mailman2 package : https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/mailman_ynh (yes it's ugly but it does the job)

To-do / roadmap

Basic install/remove

• Understand and install dependencies
• Undertsand and install sources
• Configure sympa (at least the wizard part looks okay)
• Properly handle postfix configuration (using hooks on regen-conf postfix ?)
• Nginx configuration (cf. proposition from Julien on pad ?)
• Make sure remove script remove everyting that needs to be removed

Tests

• Test that creating a mailing list and sending mail actually works...
• Test install on an Internet Cube or Raspberry Pi

Important features

• LDAP integration (!!)
• Language / locale management
• SSO integration (auto login in Sympa when logged in the SSO..)
• Check DKIM / DMARC ? (cf. this doc)

Moar scripts / improvements

• Public / private option in manifest (should be easy to do)
• Use proper helpers
• Backup / restore
• Upgrade
• (Bonus quest) Be level >= 7 lol
