[Bug 1067953] [NEW] Request: Add HTML support for message excerpt preview
by Conrad Yoder April 17, 2014

April 17, 2014

Public bug reported: Many if not most people currently use HTML-formatted email. When list moderators have to approve email postings on the Administrative Requests page, only a plaintext Message Excerpt is displayed, making informed viewing of a list member's message sometimes next to impossible. Looking through the mailman discussion list archives, I see that this feature was asked for as far back as 2005 - 7 years ago, so this is not a "new" suggestion. This would be an extremely helpful feature to add. If there are security concerns, a toggle or config option could easily be added so HTML viewing is not the default, and/or java/javascript could be disabled in the preview window. Thank you for your consideration here. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: excerpt html preview request -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1067953 Title: Request: Add HTML support for message excerpt preview To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1067953/+subscriptions

[Bug 869342] [NEW] bootstrap.py fails if buildout already installed in Python environment
by Stephen A. Goss April 15, 2014

April 15, 2014

Public bug reported: If zc.buildout is already installed (say it was pip installed) in Python environment, the bootstrap.py script fails without reasonable explanation: $ python bootstrap.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "bootstrap.py", line 255, in <module> import zc.buildout.buildout ImportError: No module named zc.buildout.buildout This is confusing because you can see that zc.buildout.buildout is available. $ python Python 2.6.5 (r265:79063, Jun 25 2011, 08:36:25) [GCC 4.4.4 20100726 (Red Hat 4.4.4-13)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import zc.buildout.buildout >>> It turns out that if zc.buildout is already available, bootstrap.py does not need to be run, but that is less than obvious to someone who is not intimately familiar with buildout. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: mailman3 ** Tags added: mailman3 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/869342 Title: bootstrap.py fails if buildout already installed in Python environment To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/869342/+subscriptions

[Bug 802971] [NEW] Mailman Client doesn't _DOMAIN doesn't offer a list of lists
by benste March 15, 2014

March 15, 2014

Public bug reported: I'd suggest adding a functionalty which would need a domain as param, and return a list of mailing lists associated with this domain. This could be used to display a choice of all available domains on this web_host and allow simple deletition of all mailinglists on this domains in case a domain will ever be deleted. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: mailman.client Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: mailmanwebgsoc2011 Importance: Wishlist Assignee: benste (benste) Status: Triaged ** Tags: mailman3 ** Also affects: mailman.client Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags added: mailman3 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/802971 Title: Mailman Client doesn't _DOMAIN doesn't offer a list of lists To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/802971/+subscriptions

[Bug 725498] [NEW] expose message-id to templates
by Thijs Kinkhorst Aug. 5, 2013

Aug. 5, 2013

Public bug reported: As reported by Adrian von Bidder to Debian: Please consider this trivial patch, which exposees message-ids to the templates used for the email archive. See it in action on lists.debian.ch. (I don't think my modification to the templates should be in, but having te message-id exposed would mean I won't have to remember to patch mailman on every update...) (AFAICT mailman adds a Message-Id when an incoming email doesn't have one, so this should never be a problem.) ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: mailman (Debian) Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/725498 Title: expose message-id to templates

[Bug 1082308] [NEW] The qrunner-master lock file causes issues when running clustered
by David Westlund July 14, 2013

July 14, 2013

Public bug reported: Hi It is possible to run mailman in a failover or load balancing cluster, see: http://wiki.list.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=4030621 When running a cluster, it is crucial to use: * a shared directory for archive data * a shared directory for locks * separate directories for each qrunner This is possible to implement by setting the directories in mm_cfg.py, for example like this (where <host> is a host name): VAR_PREFIX = '<shared dir>' LIST_DATA_DIR = os.path.join(VAR_PREFIX, 'lists') LOCK_DIR = os.path.join(VAR_PREFIX, 'locks') DATA_DIR = os.path.join(VAR_PREFIX, 'data') SPAM_DIR = os.path.join(VAR_PREFIX, 'spam') LOG_DIR = os.path.join(VAR_PREFIX, 'logs-<host>') PUBLIC_ARCHIVE_FILE_DIR = os.path.join(VAR_PREFIX, 'archives', 'public') PRIVATE_ARCHIVE_FILE_DIR = os.path.join(VAR_PREFIX, 'archives', 'private') # For qfiles and logs, <dir>-<host> is used to avoid conflicts QUEUE_DIR = os.path.join(VAR_PREFIX, 'qfiles-<host>') INQUEUE_DIR = os.path.join(QUEUE_DIR, 'in') OUTQUEUE_DIR = os.path.join(QUEUE_DIR, 'out') CMDQUEUE_DIR = os.path.join(QUEUE_DIR, 'commands') BOUNCEQUEUE_DIR = os.path.join(QUEUE_DIR, 'bounces') NEWSQUEUE_DIR = os.path.join(QUEUE_DIR, 'news') ARCHQUEUE_DIR = os.path.join(QUEUE_DIR, 'archive') SHUNTQUEUE_DIR = os.path.join(QUEUE_DIR, 'shunt') VIRGINQUEUE_DIR = os.path.join(QUEUE_DIR, 'virgin') BADQUEUE_DIR = os.path.join(QUEUE_DIR, 'bad') RETRYQUEUE_DIR = os.path.join(QUEUE_DIR, 'retry') MAILDIR_DIR = os.path.join(QUEUE_DIR, 'maildir') Unfortunately, the master-qrunner lock causes problem with this setup. mailmanctl -s starts even if there is a master-qrunner file (provided that there is no running mailmanctl on the host), making it possible to get the service up and running on more than one host. Once a day however, mailmanctl controls the lock. If it does not have it, it shuts down. If you are running a cluster, at least one of the nodes will not have the lock, and the service will be shut down on that node. To solve this, I propose that the the LOCKFILE name in mailmanctl becomes configurable, so instead of having: LOCKFILE = os.path.join(mm_cfg.LOCK_DIR, 'master-qrunner') Have: LOCKFILE = os.path.join(mm_cfg.LOCK_DIR, mm_cfg.QRUNNER_LOCK_FILE) Then add LOCKFILE = 'master-qrunner' in Defaults.py. This would make it easy to have individual qrunner master lock files for each node in a cluster. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: cluster -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1082308 Title: The qrunner-master lock file causes issues when running clustered To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1082308/+subscriptions

[Bug 1032378] [NEW] The Mass Remove function in the web UI requires that send_unsub_notifications_to_list_owner and send_unsub_ack_to_this_batch be set.
by Mark Sapiro July 14, 2013

July 14, 2013

Public bug reported: This is not a problem for the actual web admin interface, as send_unsub_notifications_to_list_owner and send_unsub_ack_to_this_batch are in the form and the CGI will always be able to access them in the CGI data, but if a user creates a URL with query fragments to try to do the unsubscribe via wget in a script, these two items must be included. They should just assume their defaults from list settings. ** 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/1032378 Title: The Mass Remove function in the web UI requires that send_unsub_notifications_to_list_owner and send_unsub_ack_to_this_batch be set.

[Bug 1082711] [NEW] bin/list_lists needs an option for listing only lists with public archives.
by Mark Sapiro July 14, 2013

July 14, 2013

Public bug reported: For example, if one wants to create a list of pages for public search engines to index, one can make a list of all the *.html files in the archives/private/<listname>/ directory, but one probably only wants to do this for lists with public archives. With an option for listing only lists with public archives, 'bin/list_lists --bare --public_archive' can easily create a list of those lists. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Medium 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/1082711 Title: bin/list_lists needs an option for listing only lists with public archives.
