[Bug 975702] [NEW] Implement a pipeline in other runners
by Barry Warsaw 23 May '15

23 May '15

Public bug reported: Stephen observed that it might be useful to implement a pipeline of handlers (even chain processing?) for other runners such as archive, bounce, and command. This is probably not something for 3.0 final, thus I'm marking it triaged,low. But it's an interesting idea and may lead to other useful refactoring. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Low Status: Triaged ** Tags: 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/975702 Title: Implement a pipeline in other runners To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/975702/+subscriptions

[Bug 973790] [NEW] 'approved' rule should not modify the message
by Barry Warsaw 23 May '15

23 May '15

Public bug reported: In Mailman 3, technically rules should not have side effects. The 'approved' rule breaks this because it removes the Approved header (and other supported headers) from the message. There should instead be a handler that does the header cleaning, and the rule should not do this. >From an implementation standpoint, the same code can be used in both the handler and in the rule. You can use a slightly different API wrapper and use a flag to indicate whether the header should be removed or not. OTOH, some clever refactoring might make better sense. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: 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/973790 Title: 'approved' rule should not modify the message To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/973790/+subscriptions

[Bug 967954] [NEW] IMessageStore should be exposed as a top level REST resource
by Barry Warsaw 23 May '15

23 May '15

Public bug reported: At the simplest, it should support GET on a Message-ID or X-Message-ID- Hash value and return the bytes of the stored message, or 404. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: 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/967954 Title: IMessageStore should be exposed as a top level REST resource To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/967954/+subscriptions

[Bug 889635] [NEW] Per-list configurable message headers for digests
by Joseph Fall 23 May '15

23 May '15

Public bug reported: Digest messages are sent out with a partial set of headers for each message. The list of headers kept for each plain-text digested message is configured by the setting: PLAIN_DIGEST_KEEP_HEADERS = [ 'Message', 'Date', 'From', 'Subject', 'To', 'Cc', 'Message-ID', 'Keywords', 'Content-Type', ] My users are very perplexed and frustrated by the e-mail headers included in the digest - in particular, the Message-ID and Content-Type are meaningless, and the To header is repetitive. All this "noise" clutters up the content and makes the digest harder to read. Given that this is a plain-text digest, with the headers listed in the message body, I don't really see an RFC issue here? Yet they can only be configured using a list-wide override in mm_cfg.py I would be willing to work on this to allow a list admin to override the plain digest headers using the web interface, but want to hear from the development team if this is a patch they would be willing to consider before I invest the time. thanks. ** 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/889635 Title: Per-list configurable message headers for digests To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/889635/+subscriptions

[Bug 885715] [NEW] Mailman should add a Received header
by Barry Warsaw 23 May '15

23 May '15

Public bug reported: When the LMTP runner or any other injection vector receives a message, it should add a Received header to indicate the time at which Mailman got the message. Use case: there is a spam filter between the incoming MTA and Mailman, and the message sits in the spam filter for a while before its administrator accepts the message. ** 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/885715 Title: Mailman should add a Received header To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/885715/+subscriptions

[Bug 869347] [NEW] bin/test script fails unless zope.testrunner is pip installed
by Stephen A. Goss 23 May '15

23 May '15

Public bug reported: I am running Mailman 3 in a virtualenv with most of its package dependencies installed through pip. In this particular configuration, if I run `buildout`, the test script that is created cannot seem to load zope.testrunner properly: $ bin/test -vv Traceback (most recent call last): File "bin/test", line 35, in <module> import zope.testrunner ImportError: No module named testrunner The workaround is to remove the eggs folder, pip install zope.testrunner, and then re-run buildout. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: 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/869347 Title: bin/test script fails unless zope.testrunner is pip installed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/869347/+subscriptions

[Bug 837700] [NEW] Issues with users subscribed via their preferred address
by Barry Warsaw 23 May '15

23 May '15

Public bug reported: You can subscribe an address to a mailing list, and you can subscribe a user to a mailing list, if the user has a preferred address. There are two problems with this. * You can actually end up getting doubly subscribed (i.e. same address with the same role). Normally, the subscription mechanism prevents you from subscribing the same address with the same role more than once, or the same user with the same role more than once. However, if you subscribe once by the address, and once by the user whose preferred address is that same address, the double subscription occurs. * The Member repr() doesn't distinguish between a member that's subscribed via explicit address, and one that's subscribed via preferred address. This means that the above will appear as a double address subscription, when it's really not. Are these substantial problems that need to be fixed? Almost certainly the second one does, but I haven't come up with an elegant repr() for the case of a user subscribed with their preferred address. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Low Status: Confirmed ** Tags: 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/837700 Title: Issues with users subscribed via their preferred address To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/837700/+subscriptions

[Bug 793669] [NEW] feature request. change the 'list my other subscriptions' to also report if the other subscriptions are enabled or disabled
by Laura Creighton 23 May '15

23 May '15

Public bug reported: I have a large number of subscriptions to mailing lists on python.org. Delivery is disabled on most of them. This is exactly how I want it -- I don't want to keep up with the day to day matters of the list, but I do want to be able to re-anable delivery and discuss things there should the need arise without having to create a new account. However, when I go on vacation, what I want to do is also disable a few high volume lists that I normally want to read every day. Thus what I would really like to see is which lists are currently enabled, so I can decide which one(s) if any I want to disable for the vacation. I don't want to disable the low-volume ones. Given that I am going to have to re-enable the lists I want to read when I get back one by one, I want the number of lists that get temporarily disabled to be as small as possible. And I want to be able to email me the short list of what they were so I can remember which ones to turn on again. Interestingly, the text of the message indicates a usability misunderstanding, and a grammatical error. The text reads: You can view a list of all the other mailing lists at python.org for which you are a member. Use this if you want to make the same membership option changes to this other subscriptions. It should be 'these other subscriptions'. And the people who want to make the same membership option changes to all the lists they are subscribed to on a site are precisely the users who don't need the feature. They can blindly go off and change things globally. If the number of lists they are subscribed to on that site is 1 -- i.e. they do not have any other subscriptions -- then saying to do things globally will do no harm. The reason you might want to look is to check because you might _not_ want to do things globally. And once you are dealing with that case, things you do not want to do globally, then of course you want to see the current settings that you have. But for my use case, all I care about is changing delivery status. All the other options I either never change, or want to change globally. I suspect that most people use mailing lists in this way, where the only thing they need to worry about is changes due to vacation, but I haven't conducted any polls to test this theory. This request sent to the tracker because the automated mail I recevied when some moderator refused to accept my mail to mailman-dev with this feature request, with the message 'why don't you just disable delivery globally and then reset them globally when you return' said that this was the place for feature requests and not the mailing list. Hope this request is clearer and explains why globally disabling is not what I want to do.
