Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1123998 Originator: NO I am unable to duplicate this in recent Mailman. This may be another manifestation of the problem at http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1235567&group_id=103&atid=300103 which was fixed in Mailman 2.1.7. If anyone is still seeing this error, can you provide more specifics such as the list's preferred language and the subscriber's preferred language. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100103&aid=1186819&group_id=103
