[Bug 1695610] [NEW] Test missing in lists_lists leading to wrong listing when using -V option
by Laurent Declercq 27 Oct '17

27 Oct '17

Public bug reported: Dear project leader, When we list the lists for specific virtualhost, a wrong result can be printed-out in the following condition: Let's say we have somme lists hosted on bbox.nuxwin.com domain and other lists on the lists.bbox.nuxwin.com virtualhost. Then, when running list_lists as follow: list_lists -b -V bbox.nuxwin.com We get also the lists names from the lists.bbox.nuxwin.com virtualhost which is an unexpected behavior. This is due to the fact that you're using find() only. Real use case: # Expected result: root@devuan:~# /usr/lib/mailman/bin/list_lists -b -V lists.bbox.nuxwin.com foobar release # Unexpected result: root@devuan:~# /usr/lib/mailman/bin/list_lists -b -V bbox.nuxwin.com foobar mailman release # Unexpected result: root@devuan:~# /usr/lib/mailman/bin/list_lists -b -V nuxwin.com foobar mailman release # Unexpected result: root@devuan:~# /usr/lib/mailman/bin/list_lists -b -V com foobar mailman release # Unexpected result: root@devuan:~# /usr/lib/mailman/bin/list_lists -b -V m foobar mailman release Thank you. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: Dear project leader, When we list the lists for specific virtualhost, a wrong result can be printed-out in the following condition: Let's say we have somme lists hosted on bbox.nuxwin.com domain and other lists on the lists.bbox.nuxwin.com virtualhost.

[Bug 1707447] [NEW] Roster should not lowercase addresses
by Rick Moen 26 Oct '17

26 Oct '17

Public bug reported: Within the WebUI pages, e.g., https://temp.balug.org/cgi- bin/mailman/admin/balug-test/members , the subscriber addresses are shown correctly with preserved letter case, e.g., my fellow list admin Michael Paoli's address is shown as entered, as Michael.Paoli(a)cal.berkeley.edu . By contrast, the roster at https://temp.balug.org/cgi-bin/mailman/roster/balug-test shows his address with lettercase converted to lower, as "michael.paoli at cal.berkeley.edu". This is with a new installation of Mailman 2.1.8, and I've confirmed the same behaviour with several prior 2.1.x installations. Admittedly, mixed lettercase in the local parts of e-mail addresses has no functional importance on _most_ SMTP systems, there is nothing in the RFCs requiring case-insignificance for local parts (only for FQDNs), so this loss of entered data could cause some users difficulties. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: lettercase lowercase roster -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1707447 Title: Roster should not lowercase addresses To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1707447/+subscriptions

[Bug 1697097] [NEW] The admindb held (un)subscriptions listing should include date and list newest.
by Mark Sapiro 26 Oct '17

26 Oct '17

Public bug reported: Currently, when presenting the list of held (un)subscription requests, the admindb CGI will delete all but one request from the same address. This deletion currently deletes all but the first request. I think it makes more sense to delete all but the last request. Also, the date of a subscription request is not reported in the listing. I think it should be. ** 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/1697097 Title: The admindb held (un)subscriptions listing should include date and list newest.
