Greetings;
I'm moving lists at my site from listproc to mailman. Some of the old list owners like the ability to associate the e-mail address with a real name. Since 2.1 has this feature, I've tried to batch subscribe members with their names without success. Is there syntax I'm missing, or must I batch subscribe the addresses and then go back and add the names one at a time? I've tried this with 2.1b2.
Thanks,
Brian
Try
Full Name <address>

Yes, and it needs to be better documented on the mass subscribe page (feel free to lodge an SF bug report so I don't forget).
Enter the addresses like so:
aperson@example.com (Anne Person) bdude@example.com (Brian D. Ude)
etc...
Actually, any format recognized by email.Utils.parseaddr() is acceptable:
http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-email.Utils.html
so
Anne Person aperson@example.com "Brian D. Ude" bdude@example.com
Should work too.
