Mailman 3 Migration

We are currently migrating from Mailman 2 to Mailman 3 for all RIPE and RIPE NCC mailing lists. These are different products, which brings some changes:

• Historical archive: To maintain historical links to the archives, we will turn https://lists.ripe.net/ into a static website after the migration is done
• New archives: The new address of the "list-name" archive will be: https://mailman.ripe.net/archives/list/{list-name}@ripe.net/
• Subscription address: The subscription address will be changed to {list-name}[email protected]

The mail delivery process for the existing subscribers will not change, though there may be a one-time delay of up to four hours during the actual transition. The interaction with the server will remain the same.

Managing Mailing Lists and Subscriptions Through the Web Interface

All Mailing Lists Users

Subscriptions and settings will be automatically migrated to Mailman 3.

• To manage subscriptions via the web interface, users must create an account with the email matching their subscriptions.
• Mailman 3 consolidates all lists under one user account per email with a single password with (potentially) different privileges for each of them.

List Owners and Moderators

• To moderate lists, create an account on the Mailman 3 server using your moderation email.
• Ensure you register with the same email used for moderation to retain your current permissions.

Follow These Steps to Register

1. Access the web interface: https://mailman.ripe.net/
2. Click on the "Sign Up" button on the top-right of the screen
3. Register using the same email address that you currently use to moderate your list, and set a password
4. Verify and confirm your email address
