membership management developments
by Scott April 23, 1998

April 23, 1998

I have made of number of changes to membership management in my copy of mailman. First, the mass subscribe function now checks the emails, reports any errors found, and reports successfull subscriptions. i changed the error check for emails to demand a host name part, as it seemed to make sense that way. Second, there is a much more succint interface to unsubscribing members and/or changing their options. This section is hidden behind password authentication, but is still part of the "… [View More]

More polishing...
by Janne Sinkkonen April 23, 1998

April 23, 1998

Below is a set of patches to take care of a few bugs. My earlier patch to get rid of extra Re:'s is included in a modified form. Changes: 1. No double Reply-To:'s to list mail. Reply-To:'s in some admin mail still remain. 2. Get rid of extra Re:'s on the subject line. However, leave "Re: PREFIX" instead of "PREFIX Re:" - the latter does not work with some mail readers which use Re: for threading (and there was some strange problems with answering the mail as well). 3. Some people … [View More]wanted to have Reply-To: in every attachment of a MIME digest (for lists with reply_to_list true). 4. A bug in digest topic section (wrong argument order to ""%(...)) corrected. Some polishing of the header (to make it more useful to the most helpless non-WWW-subscribers). 5. crontab: the right name of the script is senddigests. *** modules/mm_deliver.dist.py Wed Apr 15 20:43:04 1998 --- modules/mm_deliver.py Thu Apr 16 22:16:38 1998 *************** *** 123,128 **** --- 123,131 ---- else: tempfile.template = tmpfile_prefix + 'mailman.' if self.reply_goes_to_list: + # Get rid of old Reply-To: + for item in msg.headers: + if item[0:9] == 'Reply-To:': msg.headers.remove(item) msg.headers.append('Reply-To: %s\n' % self.GetListEmail()) msg.headers.append('Errors-To: %s\n' % self.GetAdminEmail()) *** modules/maillist.dist.py Sun Apr 12 07:34:01 1998 --- modules/maillist.py Thu Apr 16 21:07:18 1998 *************** *** 747,755 **** prefix = self.subject_prefix if not subj: msg.SetHeader('Subject', '%s(no subject)' % prefix) ! elif not re.match("(re:? *)?" + re.escape(self.subject_prefix), ! subj, re.I): ! msg.SetHeader('Subject', '%s%s' % (prefix, subj)) if self.digestable: self.SaveForDigest(msg) --- 747,763 ---- prefix = self.subject_prefix if not subj: msg.SetHeader('Subject', '%s(no subject)' % prefix) ! else: ! if re.match("(re:? *)*" + re.escape(prefix), subj, re.I): ! # The subject prefix is there already, possibly with some Re:'s. ! # Take the extra Re:'s away, put one behind prefix. ! prefix_mess_rx=re.compile('^(re:? *)*' + ! re.escape(prefix) + '(re:? *)*', re.I) ! subj=re.sub(prefix_mess_rx, 'Re: ' + prefix, subj) ! else: ! # No prefix yet. ! subj=prefix+subj ! msg.SetHeader('Subject', subj) if self.digestable: self.SaveForDigest(msg) *** modules/mm_digest.dist.py Thu Apr 16 20:57:13 1998 --- modules/mm_digest.py Thu Apr 16 22:03:10 1998 *************** *** 97,106 **** body = self.QuoteMime(post.body) topics_file.write(" %d. %s (%s)\n" % (self.next_post_number, subject, sender)) digest_file.write("--%s\n\nMessage: %d" !

Subject line, Re:, subject prefix (a small patch)
by Janne Sinkkonen April 23, 1998

April 23, 1998

Here's a patch to get rid of extra Re:'s around the beginning of the subject line. I don't know whether this replaces too aggressively or not (I'm testing it on a largish mailing list). Probably not. Another question is that should we have Re: PREFIX .* or PREFIX Re: .* in replies. I'd maybe favor the latter (this is also what the patch implements). *** maillist.py Thu Apr 16 18:38:02 1998 --- maillist.py~ Sun Apr 12 07:34:01 1998 *************** *** 747,763 **** … [View More]

Double Reply-To:, answer_majordomo_mail, archives
by Janne Sinkkonen April 23, 1998

April 23, 1998

I have several minor things: First, when the "reply to the list" option of a list is set, it seems that a potential existing Reply-To: is not (always) stripped off. Instead there will be two Reply-To: headers, one for the list, one from the original sender. I guess this is a bug? Second, here's a working answer_majordomo_mail script. The script in 1.0b12 didn't work for me (the patch would be larger than the script itself, hence I include this here): #!/usr/local/bin/python # This is … [View More]

membership management developments: chunkifying
by Scott April 21, 1998

April 21, 1998

i have somehow managed to get the membership management section chunkified, with proper authentication. there is a new variable in mm_defaults called DEFAULT_CHUNK_SIZE, which as commented sets the size of the chunk of members presented at a time to admins editing their options/ unsubscribing them. this section of membership management uses cookie authentication. As Authentication is getting particulary messy in the program cgi/admin, i wouldn't suggest (m)any futher develops that involve … [View More]special authentication without rewriting the script from the bottom up. anyway, here is a patch, as applied against the distribution version that i posted about the other day that does an improved job of membership management stuff. scott Index: cgi/admin =================================================================== RCS file: /usr/local/cvsroot/mailman/cgi/admin,v retrieving revision 1.1.1.1 diff -c -r1.1.1.1 admin *** admin 1998/04/21 03:27:57 1.1.1.1 --- admin 1998/04/21 15:45:15 *************** *** 9,17 **** --- 9,20 ---- import sys sys.path.append('/home/mailman/mailman/modules') + # XXX need to fix this, this directory should be configurable. + sys.path.append('/home/mailman/cgi-bin') import os, cgi, string, crypt, types import mm_utils, maillist, mm_cfg, mm_err from htmlformat import * + import Cookie try: sys.stderr = mm_utils.StampedLogger("error", label = 'admin', *************** *** 27,32 **** --- 30,38 ---- ('bounce', "Bounce Options"), ('archive', "Archival Options")] + # + # XXX this this data is also in mm_mailcmd (i think), it should become shared + # option_info = { 'digest' : 0, 'nomail' : mm_cfg.DisableDelivery, 'norcv' : mm_cfg.DontReceiveOwnPosts, *************** *** 36,42 **** } - def main(): """Process and produce list options form. --- 42,47 ---- *************** *** 80,86 **** FormatOptionHelp(doc, cgi_data['VARHELP'].value, list) print doc.Format(bgcolor="#ffffff") return ! if not cgi_data.has_key('adminpw'): AddErrorMessage(doc, 'Error: You must supply the admin password to' ' change options.') --- 85,125 ---- FormatOptionHelp(doc, cgi_data['VARHELP'].value, list) print doc.Format(bgcolor="#ffffff") return ! if cgi_data.has_key('adminpw') and cgi_data.has_key('edit_members'): ! adminpw = cgi_data["adminpw"] ! if type(adminpw) is type([]): ! adminpw = adminpw[0].value # use the first one, i guess -scott cotton ! else: ! adminpw = adminpw.value ! try: ! list.ConfirmAdminPassword(adminpw) !

Mailer daemons on the list
by Janne Sinkkonen April 21, 1998

April 21, 1998

I found two mailer daemons from my mailing list. Not good. :) Here's a theory of how they ended up there: somebody has sent a 'help' to the list-request address. Mailman has replied, but for some reason the reply address has been dysfunctional. The mailer daemon then sends a bounce to the list-request address with the help message in an attachment. mailman processes the message, finds 'subscribe' in there, and subscribes. Would it be possible to include some kind of tag or cookie (maybe an X … [View More]
