MIME footers
by Murray S. Kucherawy Feb. 24, 2015

Feb. 24, 2015

Hi there, A while back I introduced an experimental draft about DKIM signature generation that's sensitive to MIME structure. I'm planning to revisit and maybe even implement this to get some experimentation going. It would help guide the design work if I knew this: How does, or how would, Mailman add a footer to a MIME message? My guess is that it would make a multipart that contains the original message (message/rfc822) as one part and the footer as a text/plain in a second part, but … [View More]

Feb. 23, 2015

Hello all, I’m a student of computer science and design at Brown University. Having recently worked with Mailman setup, I’ve also been following the developer conversations.

I’d love to work alongside anyone already taking the lead on this, and put … [View More]

Re: [Mailman-Developers] [GSoC14] Full Anonymization Project Idea
by Rashi Karanpuria Feb. 22, 2015

Feb. 22, 2015

I totally understand that claiming to provide total privacy to any individual could be vague and debatable in this case. And if we apply the usual encryption it becomes very easy to hack. So using normal cryptography is ruled out. But if we could implement salting. We generate a salt when a user is joins this list. It is stored in the database with the individual's password and other details (assuming the SQL database used is secure and does not give access rights to the moderator or any one … [View More]

Introduction and Issues with the mailman interface.
by Acho Arnold Feb. 21, 2015

Feb. 21, 2015

Good day comrades. My name is Acho Arnold and I am a junior full stack web developer and I would like to contribute to this project. I have been using mailman for a long time now and I've always wondered why the interface looked **poor** in my opinion. The UI is composed of mainly text and it looks dirty to me. I would like to know if you guys (developers) also share my pain or if there is a specific reason why the UI hasn't been cleaned up? I talked with the developers on the Freenode … [View More]

Plug-in Ideas for Gsoc 2015
by Aanand Shekhar Roy Feb. 20, 2015

Feb. 20, 2015

Hi everyone, We had discussed few plug-in ideas here among which following were found to be suitable: 1.Automoderation system for limiting post - Fexible automoderation system. Lot of moderators (and even more subscribers!) who would love to have long threads throttled (the first 10 messages delivered immediately, the next 10 with 3 hours delay, the next 10 with 6 hours delay, and after that doubling delay every 10 posts. 2.Asking for confirmation if a member's post include confidential … [View More]

by Pranjal Yadav Feb. 20, 2015

Feb. 20, 2015

I started writing tests to improve the coverage for postorius and I ran into few problems which I couldn't solve for past few days. I added few new test cases and re-ran tox. It seems somehow none of the tests ran although the tox output says "ran 11 tests in 72.332s, failures = 3" Here is the link to my tests : http://pastebin.com/1jLhVsr2 I did change a few things in forms.py : http://pastebin.com/2P3vXW7W After running these tests I realized UserNewTest and ListNewTest never runs, though … [View More]
