Category: Web/CGI Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Daniel (doolyo) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: checkbox "Send list created" not saved if failure Initial Comment: On the list creation page (/mailman/create), if we check the "Send list created e-mail to list owner" button to 'yes' and that we put a wrong password by submitting the form, the checkbox will come back to 'no'. This is not the case with the other checkboxes or the text, everything else comes back to the previously chosen values. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Daniel (doolyo) Date: 2005-08-18 18:49 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1320890 Oops, sorry. It is not the correct checkbox. It is the other, called 'Should new members be quarantined before they are allowed to post unmoderated to this list?'. The rest is true for the fact that it looses it's 'yes' value.

Category: Web/CGI Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 8 Submitted By: Daniel (doolyo) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Mailman on SSL sends passwords in plain text Initial Comment: I have tried putting Mailman on a secure path of my server on an https url. It seemed to work approximately when adding the following directive in apache: RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on RewriteRule /mailman/(.*) https://www\.mysite\.com/mailman/$1 [R] However, I have sniffed the TCP/HTTP traffic during a list creation and I have seen that all the form is posted IN CLEAR. This is normal in fact as we send that to the http link first (see Bug Request #1263219). Therefore the whole test is sent in clear and only afterwards the client receives back the document move to https from apache to redirect to the proper page. I think that this could be solved if all links of the mailman binaries (admin, create and so forth) are taking dynamically the link specified in the mm_cfg.py, in the DEFAULT_URL_HOST tag. However maybe there is another clean way of putting that on a secure url. If so I would be interested in how to do that because I didn't find anything about that subject appart people doing all like I did. Thanks, Daniel ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Daniel (doolyo) Date: 2005-08-18 18:09 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1320890 P.S.: I have seen that we can use fix_url.py to fix the URL for a specific list. However, it does not seem to fix the links of /mailman/create and the others and thus does not solve the problem, as I want to have the SSL on that page. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100103&aid=1263239&group_…

I have put the followings in mm_cfg.py: DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'https://www.mysite.com/mailman' (secure connection), and we can see on the admin page that the link is on the http:// page and not https://. It should also be the same for the other pages. BTW it would be good if we could also change the pages ourselves.

Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Kirsten Petersen (kiwimonster) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: moderation approval should send email notification Initial Comment: When a non-member attempts to post to a moderated list, they receive an email informing them that their message is pending moderation. However, when the moderator has approved the message, they receive no follow-up to let them know this has happened. Since the non-member is not on the list, they have no way of knowing whether their post was successful. It would be nice to have a checkbox that allowed the moderator to notify the poster when their message has been approved. Or, to have notification sent by default. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Kirsten Petersen (kiwimonster) Date: 2005-08-12 10:40 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1122614 Okay, so it's a feature request.

The Mailman does not give any information to the sender. So both senders and recipients will not know anything about what is going on about the email. This is a bug for 2.1.5. I am not sure if the bug is still there for 2.1.6. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100103&aid=1257306&group_…

Category: mail delivery Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Loek Jehee (loekjehe) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Bug report: hanging message (shunting) Initial Comment: Hello, I repeatedly have a shunted message when it is a message made in Eudora 6.2 (on Mac OS X) that contains a so-called "in-line" image (like jpg). When I send such message to the list (and I approve it as a moderator), then the message gets "shunted" and manually has to be put in the normal queue. I consider this a bug in MailMan which I would like to inform you of. I don't know if this list is the right place to post such bug report but I thought it might be interesting also for other users to know that such thing can happen. Maybe someone has a solution for me for this type of messages containing in-line pictures. The bug recently happens always when I send such message so it is a reproducible error. Below is the error log for your information. Best regards, Loek Jehee -------- Hi Loek, if you report this to mailman-users mailing list, here is the error log.
