Message: Logged In: YES user_id=768522 As far as I recognised mailman copies Message.py from the python libraries so I also reported it for python (id 854102). As a workaround replace the line in question: return unicode(newvalue[2], newvalue[0] or 'us-ascii') with try: return unicode(newvalue[2], newvalue[0] or 'us-ascii') except LookupError: return unicode(newvalue[2], 'us-ascii', 'replace') ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Gregor Maier (maiergre) Date: 2004-04-26 18:53 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=38025 Hello, I have the same problem with mailmain-2.1.4 with python-2.3.3 under linux gentoo. Are there any clues where the problem lies or any workarounds? Disableing the digest option works but is not really a solution. Another interesting fact is, that the only some lists show this problem and that the prolbem just "occurs" and then it doesn't go away.. Here's a part of my error log: Apr 26 18:27:05 2004 (17449) Uncaught runner exception: unknown encoding: X-UNKNOWN Apr 26 18:27:05 2004 (17449) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py", line 110, in _oneloop self._onefile(msg, msgdata) File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py", line 160, in _onefile keepqueued = self._dispose(mlist, msg, msgdata) File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Queue/IncomingRunner.py", line 130, in _dispose more = self._dopipeline(mlist, msg, msgdata, pipeline) File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Queue/IncomingRunner.py", line 153, in _dopipeline sys.modules[modname].process(mlist, msg, msgdata) File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/ToDigest.py", line 91, in process send_digests(mlist, mboxfp) File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/ToDigest.py", line 132, in send_digests send_i18n_digests(mlist, mboxfp) File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/ToDigest.py", line 306, in send_i18n_digests msg = scrubber(mlist, msg) File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/Scrubber.py", line 265, in process url = save_attachment(mlist, part, dir) File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/Scrubber.py", line 361, in save_attachment fnext = os.path.splitext(msg.get_filename(''))[1] File "/usr/local/mailman/pythonlib/email/Message.py", line 714, in get_filename return unicode(newvalue[2], newvalue[0] or 'us-ascii') LookupError: unknown encoding: X-UNKNOWN Apr 26 18:27:05 2004 (17449) SHUNTING: 1082996756.746207+e85fdb8b141ccd2a8f0757824f62fbff58 da2ce4 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ervin Németh (nemethe) Date: 2003-10-08 14:23 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=768522 It's quite unpleasant to recieve this mail daily. In addition there was a local mailing list to which no mail was delivered until digests to this list was turned off. Last day I have upgraded to mailman 2.1.3 and the last lines of the traceback changed: File "/usr/local/mailman/pythonlib/email/Message.py", line 714, in get_filename return unicode(newvalue[2], newvalue[0] or 'us-ascii') LookupError: unknown encoding: X-UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100103&aid=803729&group_id=103
