mylist-subscribe / mylist-unsubscribe
by Jason R. Mastaler 26 Feb '02

26 Feb '02

I noticed there are new "robot addresses" in MM 2.1 to ease subscribing and unsubscribing. mylist-join@mysite mylist-leave@mysite Great idea, but why not -subscribe and -unsubscribe as is already done in ezmlm? I actually get *allot* of messages sent to mylist-subscribe due to people mistakenly thinking that my lists are managed by ezmlm. -- (http://tmda.sourceforge.net/)

A Bug in Hold.py
by Tokio Kikuchi 26 Feb '02

26 Feb '02

Hi, I am playing with Mailman 2.1a i18n feature. When I set my test list as moderated, the rejection notice message in admindb/details doesn't show up with translation. Following short patch fixes this bug (I think). --- /home/mailman/src/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/Hold.py Fri Feb 15 19:17:45 2002 +++ Hold.py Tue Feb 26 16:16:44 2002 @@ -189,7 +189,7 @@ # We need to send both the reason and the rejection notice through the # translator again, because of the games we play above reason = Utils.wrap(exc.reason_notice()) - msgdata['rejection-notice'] = Utils.wrap(exc.rejection_notice(mlist)) + msgdata['rejection-notice'] = Utils.wrap(_(exc.rejection_notice(mlist))) id = mlist.HoldMessage(msg, reason, msgdata) # Now we need to craft and send a message to the list admin so they can # deal with the held message.

current snapshot install...
by Ron Jarrell 26 Feb '02

26 Feb '02

Updated my snapshot, and was playing with install. Install *really* shouldn't depend on someone having installed a tar that understands the "z" option. And, given that the rest of the install stresses doing things are yourself, it really shouldn't be trying to install the email kit anyway - I've *never* installed mailman as something that *could* install a new python module...

cgi-bin src?
by jcmcm＠speakeasy.net 26 Feb '02

26 Feb '02

I'm looking to modify the administration interface (and likely a handful of other things). Am I just looking in all the wrong places or is there no available source code for the cgi binaries? JM

gate_news still broken in 2.1b..
by Ron Jarrell 26 Feb '02

26 Feb '02

Ok, mailman installs now, and large chunks of it are working, sans, apparently, any support for gzipping anymore since I got three pages of errors trying to link zlib. However, gate_news is still doing what I reported a month or two ago... If I email a messages to my gated test list, I get this i the errors file: Feb 25 17:44:21 2002 (17842) (NNTPDirect) NNTP error for list "rontest": 441 437 No colon-space in "From jarrell(a)lennier.cc.vt.edu Mon Feb 25 17:44:00 2002 " header For some reason gate_news is passing the unix mailbox "From " header to the news server, who, understandably, doesn't like it.

Problems with Cookie.py while upgrading
by Dan Ohnesorg 25 Feb '02

25 Feb '02

One beta tester of czech localization for mailman has me reported this bug, which I am trying to translate into English. Mailman 2.0 uses its own modules Cookie.py and imports Cookie class from it. Mailman 2.1 uses this module from Python 2.2 and renames there presented class from BasicCookie to Cookie. And the problem is, that update script will try to remove the unused Cookie.py, but it will first import it (indirectly) so the whole update scrtipt fails to execute and has no possibility to delete the unused file. I hope, you will know what I mean. cheers dan -- ----------------------------------------------------------- / Dan Ohnesorg Dan(a)ohnesorg.cz \ < Jinočanská 7 252 19 Rudná u Prahy > \ tel: +420 311 679679 +420 311 679976 fax: +420 311 679311 / -----------------------------------------------------------
