[ mailman-Bugs-789897 ] Shunt clogged up - RFC2231 unicode problem?

Initial Comment: Dozens of messages are backed up in my shunt directory with the message "TypeError: unicode() argument 2 must be string, not None" (full traceback example below). This seems very similar to a problem fixed by ber with 2.0.x earlier this year but I'm running 2.1.2 (on FreeBSD). I tried my best to apply a similar solution to Message.py but apparently I don't know enough about python to make it work.

The answer is: Administrative Interface > Privacy options > Sender filters > By default, should new list member postings be moderated? Given the number of times this question has been posted to the mailman-users list, it does not seem to be intuitive that list moderation settings are found under: Privacy options > Sender filters I suggest that in the next release, directly in the Administrative Interface there be two sub-categories of: List Accessibility Options and Privacy Options The first one would contain the options that can restrict Access to the list as a whole (who can post, who can view the archives, who can see if this list even exists). The second one restricts access to Private subscriber information (obscure poster addresses in the archives or when remailing posts to the list subscribers, restricting who can get a list of subscribers, etc.) I feel that this would make it a lot easier for list managers to figure out where these options are within the list management interface. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=350103&aid=789617&group_i…

While it is all right if (urlhost, mailhost) pair is one to one, if there are many to one urlhost->mailhost pairs, this function may return wrong host name. This patch trys to extract urlhost from private archive url and therefore does not suffer from multiple hostname for sigle email host.

Outlook for instance. People using some email readers just don't use it, because the functionality is hidden (like many KMail users). They beg the adminstrator to mangle the reply-to header. Other users of course find that harmful. A per user (and per list?) option to set an explicit reply-to header to the list seems to be a good solution. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=350103&aid=788314&group_i…
