Somehow, one of our lists wound up with an improperly formatted address like this: mailto:username@domain.com The list administrator is not able to remove this member from the web interface. When I attempt to remove them with remove_members, I get this traceback: Traceback (most recent call last): File "./remove_members", line 186, in ? main() File "./remove_members", line 176, in main admin_notif, userack) File "/var/lib/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py", line 954, in ApprovedDeleteMember self.removeMember(emailaddr) File "/var/lib/mailman/Mailman/OldStyleMemberships.py", line 220, in removeMember self.__assertIsMember(member) File "/var/lib/mailman/Mailman/OldStyleMemberships.py", line 113, in __assertIsMember raise Errors.NotAMemberError, member
From reading rfc822, it looks like colon is not an allowed character in an email address.
