Category: Web/CGI Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Fredrik Lundh (effbot) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: "#" in mail address confuses mailman

Initial Comment: someone recently managed to subscribe himself to the python.org image-sig mailing list, using an add- ress looking a bit like this one:

prefix#user@some.com

unfortunately, the web interface doesn't escape the "#" character, so the web pages for this user cannot be accessed:

http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/image-

sig/prefix#user--at--some.com

(the browser strips off the "#" and everything after it before sending the URL to mailman...).

I'm not sure what version python.org is running, but I suspect that the Barry person might be able to figure that out.

cheers /F
