Kuchling (akuchling) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Generate RSS summary in archives Initial Comment: Here's a first-draft patch. Things that need fixing: * The generated RSS feed needs to be validated. (It passed the W3C's RDF validator, but RSS validators still need to be checked.) * The date should be given in YYYY-MM-DD format, which requires parsing the .fromdate attribute. * How do I get the URL for an archived message? The generated RSS currently just uses the filename, which is wrong. How do I get at the PUBLIC_ARCHIVE_URL setting? * Getting the most recent N postings is inefficient; the code loops through all of the archived messages and takes the last N of them. We could add .last() and .prev() methods to the Database class, but that's more ambitious for 2.1beta than I like. (Would be nice to get this into 2.1final...) * The list index page should have a LINK element pointing to the RSS file. Please make any comments you have, and I'll rework the patch accordingly. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Barry A. Warsaw (bwarsaw) Date: 2003-04-18 18:43 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=12800 Andrew, to get the url for the archived message use mlist.GetBaseArchiveURL(), which knows about private vs. public archives, the host name and the list name. From there you should be able to tack on just the part of the path under "archives/private/listname". See Mailman/Handlers/Scrubber.py for an example. Only other minor comment: NUM_ARTICLES can probably go in Defaults.py.in ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Justin Mason (jmason) Date: 2003-03-26 16:49 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=935 big thumbs up from me too.

Mailman parses the message first and do something like adding subject prefix or message body header/footer then regenerate RFC-2822 message. Email module thinks your subject has two part structure separated by a comma and split by CRLF. I am not very sure but current version of email doesn't distinguish structured and unstructured headers defined in 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 of RFC-2822. Anyway, It is safer to shorten the header lines within 78 charcters. FYI, email module generates your subject header like this: Subject: =?utf-8?q?=5BMTD=5D_NAND=3A_CAF=C3=89_NAND_driver_cleanup=2C_fix?= =?utf-8?q?_ECC_on_reading_empty_flash?= ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: David Woodhouse (dwmw2) Date: 2006-11-29 14:00 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=81423 Originator: YES Your thunderbird also refuses to send this: To: Some people : ; Bcc: foo(a)bar.org, baz(a)turnip.com Thunderbird isn't necessarily the best test of what's valid :) The pertinent question is: why is mailman munging this _anyway_?

Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Matthew Saltzman (cumthsc) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Web interface to sync_members Initial Comment: It would be useful to extend the Membership Management page to support sync_members. We use mailman to run a number of members-only lists for a professional society. The membership database is kept on a separate system, and lists of current members are produced for the various lists at regular intervals. It would be easier for our non-technical office staff to keep the mailing list memberships in sync with the main database if they could upload the member list through the Web rather than having to upload the file with FTP and use sudo and shell commands to do the synching. We could mass-delete and mass-subscribe, but it would be more convenient to do it in one step. Also, for some of the lists, new members should receive notification that they have been subscribed, but carry-over members should not get such notification. The only way to do that with add_members is to add in two steps or to make two files with members to be deleted and members to be added, leaving the carry-over members subscribed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ralf Hildebrandt (hildeb) Date: 2006-11-29 15:41 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=77128 Originator: NO I implemented that feature. How can I upload a patch against 2.1.9? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=350103&aid=1074197&group_…
