For example, I was working from the web-team page http://domain.net/mailman/options/listname as I tried to change my address globally. This would affect about ten lists to which my old address subscribed, including a list called "Team" among others. But "Team" already had my new address among its subscribers, so it could not accept another one. Rather than giving a graceful error message when it discovered this, MailMan just crashed. I didn't capture the exception traceback, but it should be easy to reproduce. - Rich ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Simon Harrison (simonha) Date: 2003-10-30 11:39 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=898088 I have experience the same problem, here is our traceback: Traceback: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/mailman-2.1.2/scripts/driver", line 87, in run_main main() File "/usr/local/mailman-2.1.2/Mailman/Cgi/confirm.py", line 131, in main addrchange_confirm(mlist, doc, cookie) File "/usr/local/mailman-2.1.2/Mailman/Cgi/confirm.py", line 492, in addrchange_confirm op, oldaddr, newaddr = mlist.ProcessConfirmation(cookie) File "/usr/local/mailman-2.1.2/Mailman/MailList.py", line 1113, in ProcessConfirmation self.ApprovedChangeMemberAddress(oldaddr, newaddr, globally) File "/usr/local/mailman-2.1.2/Mailman/MailList.py", line 1048, in ApprovedChangeMemberAddress mlist.changeMemberAddress(oldaddr, newaddr) File "/usr/local/mailman-2.1.2/Mailman/OldStyleMemberships. py", line 251, in changeMemberAddress password=xxxxxxxx, language=lang) File "/usr/local/mailman-2.1.2/Mailman/OldStyleMemberships. py", line 175, in addNewMember raise Errors.MMAlreadyAMember, member MMAlreadyAMember: oneofourusers@ourorganisation.org.uk ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100103&aid=820322&group_id=103
