Public bug reported: The is_administrivia function in Mailman/Utils.py requires a 'set' command to have exactly three arguments and further requires that the second argument be 'on' or 'off' in order to be detected as administrivia. This means that none of the following valid commands are detected. set help set show [address=<address>] set authenticate <password> [address=<address>] set<keyword> on set <keyword> off set digest plain set digest mime Unless the command is set authenticate <password> address=<address> and the password is 'on' or 'off', however a line such as set that off topic would be detected as administrivia even though it is not. Clearly the intent was to require two arguments, not three, but even this would not detect things like set help or set digest plain The obvious fix is to require between one and two (or maybe three) arguments and to not require the second argument to be 'on' or 'off', but this may wind up giving too many false positives. This bug has existed since the format of the set command was changed in Mailman 2.1, and I'm not aware of any complaints about 'set' not being caught as administrivia, so I'm reluctant to 'rock the boat' too much. Does anyone have an opinion on this? ** 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/796836 Title: Valid set commands are never detected as administrivia.
