[Bug 901957] [NEW] Mailman.Mailbox.Mailbox.AppendMessage method can add null bytes to mailbox.
by Mark Sapiro 15 Jun '12

15 Jun '12

Public bug reported: The Mailman.Mailbox.Mailbox.AppendMessage method has an invalid seek to position the file to the end of the mailbox. It contains . # Seek to the last char of the mailbox . self.fp.seek(1, 2) This actually should be self.fp.seek(0, 2). There is no actual ill effect in Mailman itself from this bug as Mailman always opens mailbox files to be written to in 'a+' mode and seeks before writes are ignored for files opened in append mode, but if someone creates a process which opens a file in 'w+' mode and then uses the Mailman.Mailbox.Mailbox.AppendMessage method to add messages to it, each added message's UnixFrom is preceded by a null byte. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Low Assignee: Mark Sapiro (msapiro) Status: Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/901957 Title: Mailman.Mailbox.Mailbox.AppendMessage method can add null bytes to mailbox.

[Bug 893290] [NEW] "Re:" matching not liberal enough
by Ignacy Gawędzki 15 Jun '12

15 Jun '12

Public bug reported: In Handlers/CookHeaders.py, the regex to match a "Re" line is not liberal enough. French MUAs often use a "Re :" tag, with a space before the colon. I suggest that instead of '((RE|AW|SV|VS)(\[\d+\])?:\s*)+', it should be '((RE|AW|SV|VS)\s*(\[\d+\])?\s*:\s*)+'. ** 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/893290 Title: "Re:" matching not liberal enough To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/893290/+subscriptions

[Bug 862683] [NEW] List caching in the qrunners can cause the processes to grow unduly large.
by Mark Sapiro 15 Jun '12

15 Jun '12

Public bug reported: The qrunners implement a cache of list objects to save reloading the list from the file system when not necessary. This cache is implemented via a weakref dictionary which is intended to free cached objects when they are no longer referenced. However, there is a self reference in the default MemberAdaptor (OldStyleMemberships) that prevents cached list objects from ever being freed. Thus, the qrunners grow until they have a cached copy of every list. This can be quite large in an installation with many lists and/or multiple large lists. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Low Assignee: Mark Sapiro (msapiro) 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/862683 Title: List caching in the qrunners can cause the processes to grow unduly large.

[Bug 745432] [NEW] Email address with leading or trailing space is not accepted by web subscribe.
by Mark Sapiro 15 Jun '12

15 Jun '12

Public bug reported: If an address is entered on the web listinfo subscribe form with a leading or trailing space, it is rejected with the message "The email address you supplied is not valid. (E.g. it must contain an '@'.)". This is confusing to the user who looks at the address and sees it does contain an '@' and appears valid. Leading and trailing whitespace should be stripped from the address entry. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Low Assignee: Mark Sapiro (msapiro) Status: In Progress -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/745432 Title: Email address with leading or trailing space is not accepted by web subscribe.

[Bug 739524] [NEW] Administrivia 'who' matches too much
by Joseph Brennan 15 Jun '12

15 Jun '12

Public bug reported: Mailman/Utils.py has: 'who': (0, 2), This matches subject and start-of-line with many ordinary-language sentences or headings like 'who are you?' or 'Who is affected:'. I suggest dialing it back to (0, 1) which would have far fewer false positives, or even (0, 0) as it once was. ** 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/739524 Title: Administrivia 'who' matches too much
