Moving to a docker setup triggered an email list to resend all the autoresponders

I recently took my deployment from bare metal on Ubuntu to docker using docker compose. This is the image I used:
https://hub.docker.com/r/marcelorodrigo/sendy

I managed to correctly deploy it (imported my database and my uploads folder, however, the moment the cron jobs took over, it started sending out all the emails on lists that had and auoresponder. I am not really sure how that happened.

It looked like all the emails were existing emails in the list, and for some reason were getting triggered to resubscribe to the list.

I managed to isolate the problem to the lists with autoresponders, and I disabled all of them. This stopped the emails going out, but the subscriptions to the lists kept on renewing.

Is there some way to troubleshoot and see what went wrong?

    This resembles an immediate-autoresponder upgrade issue that has been fixed in Sendy 7.1.2 (https://sendy.co/get-updated). The fix prevents existing subscribers from receiving previously sent immediate autoresponders after an upgrade or migration.

    Please note that marcelorodrigo/sendy is an unofficial community Docker image, and its latest tag may contain an older Sendy release. Please verify the installed Sendy version rather than relying on the Docker tag.
