[Bug 643949] [NEW] Need REST API to change existing user's email
by Timr-probo 29 Apr '11

29 Apr '11

Public bug reported: Perhaps the most common administrative task I face is changing an existing user's email address. Many non-technical people change email addresses very often. This is easy to do with the command line clone_users command, but in a hosted environment, I have to find the user, delete them, go to "mass subscription", and re-enter them. It would be nice if the REST API included a "change one user's address" command. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: mailman3 -- Need REST API to change existing user's email https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/643949 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman.

[Bug 656946] [NEW] Corrupt eggs in mailman-3.0.0a6.tar.gz
by Phil King 29 Apr '11

29 Apr '11

Public bug reported: Following up on this thread: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-developers%40python.org/msg12023.html I can reproduce the problem: [cp ~/local/src/mailman-3.0.0a6] ./bin/buildout Traceback (most recent call last): File "./bin/buildout", line 17, in <module> import zc.buildout.buildout ImportError: No module named zc.buildout.buildout The eggs/zc-buildout* directory is missing the *.py files.

[Bug 769484] [NEW] local_parts in README.Exim4.Debian
by Leon 23 Apr '11

Public bug reported: hi. I use Exim4 together with mailman. For me the documentation in /usr/share/doc/mailman/README.Exim4.Debian did not work for mailing-lists other than "mailman". I changed the code for the router part (around line 58): - local_parts = mailman + local_parts = $local_part best regards, Leon ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/769484 Title: local_parts in README.Exim4.Debian

[Bug 767335] [NEW] Attachments still being scrubbed even for lists where 'archive' is set to No.
by Bernie Innocenti 20 Apr '11

20 Apr '11

Public bug reported: This is Mailman 2.14, but the bug was also present in ancient releases. We have a list configured like this: archive=No archive_private=Yes The global settings are: DEFAULT_ARCHIVE=On DEFAULT_ARCHIVE_PRIVATE=0 ARCHIVE_TO_MBOX=2 PRIVATE_EXTERNAL_ARCHIVER=No Even though no html archives are being generated, Mailman still creates the attachments directory for this list, and saves all attachments in it. I've traced the code responsible for this to ArchiverMailbox.__init__(), invoked by HyperArchive.processUnixMailbox(). I couldn't find where Mailman uses the perl-list 'archive' flag. Only the global setting seems to be considered. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/767335 Title: Attachments still being scrubbed even for lists where 'archive' is set to No.

[Bug 763931] [NEW] Enhancement: Export user credentials to AuthUserFile for apache
by Andre LaBranche 17 Apr '11

17 Apr '11

Public bug reported: This is an enhancement request. It would be cool if Mailman had a per- list option to export the username / password credentials to an AuthUserFile formatted file, to allow Apache to authorize access to web- based resources using Mailman user accounts. I hacked together some stuff to make it work on my site, but I'm sure you guys could do a better job, so I'll just leave you with this link to what I did: http://www.dreness.com/blog/?p=205 Ideally this should be event-driven, so that any changes to the Mailman user db trigger an export to a configured AuthUserFile (assuming the option is enabled).
