This caused the upgrade (make install) to fail with this message: updating old qfiles Traceback (most recent call last): File "bin/update", line 780, in ? errors = main() File "bin/update", line 709, in main update_qfiles() File "bin/update", line 441, in update_qfiles msg, data = dequeue(filebase) File "bin/update", line 497, in dequeue msg = cPickle.load(msgfp) EOFError make: *** [update] Error 1 Removing the zero-length files cleared that up. I did have one other problem; while investigating the first bit I dumped some info to a text file in qfiles, and the next make install failed with this error: updating old qfiles Traceback (most recent call last): File "bin/update", line 780, in ? errors = main() File "bin/update", line 709, in main update_qfiles() File "bin/update", line 434, in update_qfiles for filename in os.listdir(dirpath): OSError: [Errno 20] Not a directory: '/home/mailman/qfiles/blork' make: *** [update] Error 1 At least that had the filename in it. ;) Removed the file, and it installed/upgraded cleanly. So far so good... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100103&aid=949117&group_i…

Handy when queued messages are pickles rather than plain text, and it presents the same UI in both cases. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Greg Ward (gward) Date: 2004-05-04 22:03 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=14422 Barry, I think you forgot to close this one. Let's see if SF will let me do it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Barry A. Warsaw (bwarsaw) Date: 2003-08-25 21:40 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=12800 Nice! Now, do you want to copyright assign to the FSF so I can add it to the distro? :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Greg Ward (gward) Date: 2003-08-25 19:57 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=14422 oops, this time I'll actually check the stupid "upload" checkbox... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=300103&aid=795012&group_i…

In particular, the user has a LotusNotes email address which contains slashes. For example, an email address such as foo_bar/myschool/mydoe(a)notes.k12.hi.us will not be accepted by the form. It responds that the email address is illegal. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100103&aid=948064&group_i…

The list administrator can toggle the send_reminder once each year, but that's error prone. The attached patch adds a list specific option send_reminder_frequency with the values monthly (default), yearly and quaterly. the mailpasswds script is changed to ask for this option. I didn't yet figure out, how to update existing lists ... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Matthias Klose (doko) Date: 2004-05-01 10:57 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=60903 updated patch for mailman-2.1.4 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Barry A.
