Would an illegal address such as this be filtered nowadays?

Yes, such an address couldn't be added in the first place. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Andreas Thienemann (ixsnet) Date: 2006-04-28 14:32 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1450459 It seems, the problem is caused by an illegal email address "marionmüller@t-online.de". And yes, this was an upgrade from 2.0.x. Would an illegal address such as this be filtered nowadays? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Mark Sapiro (msapiro) Date: 2006-04-16 18:51 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1123998 Did you just upgrade from Mailman 2.1.2 or older? It appears that this list has one or more members with (invalid?) non-ascii characters in their email address. I think any version from 2.1.3 on would throw this exception, and no recent version would allow the address to be added. You might try something like bin/list_members listname | egrep '[^[:alnum:]@.-]' to find the offending address. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100103&aid=1471487&group_id=103
