[ mailman-Bugs-663272 ] held message notice options

When spam is held, this can result as the notice itself being tagged as spam, which causes them to be thrown in my spam folder. Is there an option to use the smaller sized notices like in 2.0.x? If not, could there be one? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100103&aid=663272&group_i…

[ mailman-Bugs-660733 ] pipermail date handling

This is a list that's been around for a long time (archives back to 1995), and the .mbox file was generated from a majordomo/hypermail archive when it was moved to mailman 2.0 a couple of years ago. Here's a ls -l of the .mbox file: -rw-rw-r-- 1 mailman mailman 17741891 Jan 1 10:36 bryans-list.mbox Here's the traceback: Updating HTML for article 467 Updating HTML for article 468 Updating HTML for article 469 Updating HTML for article 473 Updating HTML for article 472 Pickling archive state into /home/mailman-2.1/archives/private/bryans-list/pipermail.pck Traceback (most recent call last): File "bin/arch", line 187, in ? main() File "bin/arch", line 175, in main archiver.processUnixMailbox(fp, start, end) File "/home/mailman-2.1/Mailman/Archiver/pipermail.py", line 544, in processUnixMailbox m = mbox.next() File "/usr/local/lib/python2.2/mailbox.py", line 34, in next return self.factory(_Subfile(self.fp, start, stop)) File "/home/mailman-2.1/Mailman/Mailbox.py", line 79, in scrubber return mailbox.scrub(msg) File "/home/mailman-2.1/Mailman/Mailbox.py", line 99, in scrub return self._scrubber(self._mlist, msg) File "/home/mailman-2.1/Mailman/Handlers/Scrubber.py", line 132, in process dir = calculate_attachments_dir(mlist, msg, msgdata) File "/home/mailman-2.1/Mailman/Handlers/Scrubber.py", line 93, in calculate_attachments_dir datedir = safe_strftime(fmt, now) File "/home/mailman-2.1/Mailman/Handlers/Scrubber.py", line 77, in safe_strftime return time.strftime(fmt, floatsecs) TypeError: argument must be 9-item sequence, not None I'm guessing it's a header problem in one of the messages, but I'm not sure what. Thanks, Bryan ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Bryan Fullerton (fehwalker) Date: 2003-01-01 13:45 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=660772 After some investigation, the following (admittedly invalid) date headers cause tracebacks similar to the above. After reformatting them I'm able to generate the archive. Date: 25 Aug 95 18.00 Date: Thursday, 30 October 1997 3:02pm PT Date: Mon, 29 Nov 1999 Pacific Standard Time Note that these messages *didn't* cause bin/arch|pipermail in mailman 2.0.x to fail, though it probably didn't parse them properly. Perhaps trapping the error and/or skipping these messages might be more useful? It also appears that bin/arch is throwing all messages with dates it can't figure out (after the above were removed) into the current day. An example can be seen at http://lists.samurai.com/pipermail/bryans-list/2003-January/thread.html . I'm unsure if there's any way to better handle this, but just wanted to note it - I can create a separate bug report if it's important.

Strangely broken list discovered
by Stonewall Ballard Jan. 6, 2003

Jan. 6, 2003

I have a list that is one of about ten in a particular domain. The list has been unused for about 8 months (it's a seasonal thing), but someone sent a message to it, and the moderator message I got had the wrong URL in it. The list is at the domain <lists.dom.ain>, but some poking around at it showed that the admindb part thought that it was at <www.dom.ain>. Everything else about it seemed ok, but I couldn't handle any admin requests because all the links on the admindb pages were pointing to the www host. I dumped the list out with config_list, but there was no mention of <www.dom.ain> in there. Not having any other ideas, I deleted and recreated the list, and now all is well. I still have the list files on a backup if someone (i.e. Barry) wants to take a look at this. Since I don't know what version of Mailman created the list, possibly a 2.0 variant or early 2.1 beta, I can't say whether this is a real bug, but I wanted this to go on record in case it happens to someone else. - Stoney -- Stonewall Ballard stoney(a)sb.org http://stoney.sb.org/

Here's how to replicate problem (for those who need to know, and please understand I'm not being a smartbutt, but someone who is just confused with this behavior). 1.) Create new list 2.) Add your email in list administrator's area 3.) Save 4.) Send an email to list from a non-subscribed list 5.) Watch the fireworks on your Admin Email I'm having to go in, stop qrunner, then delete the request.db file before starting qrunner before the race condition stops. Any help would be appreciated!

[ mailman-Feature Requests-662334 ] Remove additional recpients from postings

Feature Requests item #662334, was opened at 2003-01-04 16:20 You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=350103&aid=662334&group_i… Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Stonewall Ballard (stoneyb) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Remove additional recpients from postings Initial Comment: I have a serious problem with people cc'ing lists along with other recipients. It's a bad idea for those other recipients to have their email addresses exposed via the lists, and it's a lot of trouble to get people to re-send messages with the other recpients stripped out. Lists should have a configuration flag that removes all recpients from the TO and CC headers except for the list address. This must happen before archiving. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=350103&aid=662334&group_i…

[ mailman-Feature Requests-662324 ] Per-user anonymous posting
by SourceForge.net Jan. 4, 2003

Jan. 4, 2003

Feature Requests item #662324, was opened at 2003-01-04 20:30 You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=350103&aid=662324&group_i… Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: David Shaw (dmshaw) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Per-user anonymous posting Initial Comment: It would be useful for list members to have the ability to post anonymously to the list. This would entail mangling the "From" address in some way (pushing it through SHA-1?), and possibly searching the message body for the member's email address for similar mangling. Obviously this would not be complete anonymitity, as Mailman and the list admin needs to know what the real address for the user is, but it would be sufficient to keep the list members anonymous from each other. This is similar to the current anonymous_list feature, but different in that anonymous users and non-anonymous users can interact on the same list. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=350103&aid=662324&group_i…
