Hello!
It seems like MS Internet Explorer 4.x (except 4.7x for NT) is not following RFC 2109 and storing cookies sent by Mailman _without_ dbl.quotes "".
Mailman fails verifying these cookies, because Cookie.py module thinks the incoming cookie does not contain any special chars (not true) as it is _not_ enclosed with dbl.quotes so decoding goes wrong.
The consequence is that for the administration of the Mailman over the web you have to re-enter password to authenticate on every page. Annoying.
I made a little patch to SecurityManager.py to get around this problem, experienced in Mailman 1.0rc2 and 1.0rc3, (for the Mailman in fact it's a feature, not a bug :-)) and submitted it to the JitterBug database http://www.python.org/mailman-bugs/ .
Does anybody had something similar ?
Regards
Evaldas
