Well, my previous mailing inquiring about how to best submit code got no reponse, so I'm submitting as I see fit: namely, via attached files and generous context diffs. Attached are mailman/Mailman/Cgi/postmsg.py, a basic web interface for posting messages, and Message.diff, a 30-line context diff of some minor changes to IncomingMessage which allow postmsg.py to work properly. This is still all very early code, so your beautifcations and suggestions are appriciated. Patches to make the postmsg script accessable via a replacement tag are pending. User accounts are in progress, but further off.
