[Bug 964190] [NEW] Trailing slash is stripped from List-Archive: URL
by Mark Sapiro 15 Jun '12

15 Jun '12

Public bug reported: In creating the List-Archive: header, CookHeaders.py strips a trailing slash from the URL returned by mlist.GetBaseArchiveURL(). It has always (in 2.1) done this, but it is wrong. Consider a list's archive TOC page which has entries like the following: <tr> <td>March 2012:</td> <td> <A href="2012-March/thread.html">[ Thread ]</a> <A href="2012-March/subject.html">[ Subject ]</a> <A href="2012-March/author.html">[ Author ]</a> <A href="2012-March/date.html">[ Date ]</a> </td> <td><A href="2012-March.txt">[ Text 766 KB ]</a></td> </tr> If the base archive URL is http://www.example.com/private/listname/ and one goes to that URL, the relative hrefs all work fine, but if one goes to http://www.example.com/private/listname instead, those relative hrefs become relative to private/ instead of private/listname/, and one gets 'no such list: 2012-march' errors (or 404 errors in the case of public 'pipermail' URLs). ** 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/964190 Title: Trailing slash is stripped from List-Archive: URL To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/964190/+subscriptions

[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.
