How to list all members of a list/search broken
There doesn't seem to be an option for listing all members on the web interface and there's also no chance to do it with the search. Search obviously transforms strings automatically to regexes (that is I can search for a string and don't need to create a regex), but it doesn't produce a result when I use only one character or a regex which would output all members.

There is, but it's not in the obvious place that list admins would look for it. Check the bottom of the listinfo page for your list and you can get the subscriber list from there. IMHO, this link ought to be in the admin section someplace too. A trivial patch to add this to the "Other Administrative Activities" section would look like this (leaving i18n as an exercise for the interested): - --- mailman-2.1.4/Mailman/Cgi/admin.py~ Wed Dec 24 12:27:45 2003 +++ mailman-2.1.4/Mailman/Cgi/admin.py Wed Apr 28 13:23:35 2004 @@ -412,6 +412,8 @@ _('Tend to pending moderator requests'))) otherlinks.AddItem(Link(mlist.GetScriptURL('listinfo'), _('Go to the general list information page'))) + otherlinks.AddItem(Link(mlist.GetScriptURL('roster'), + _('View all members of this list'))) otherlinks.AddItem(Link(mlist.GetScriptURL('edithtml'), _('Edit the public HTML pages'))) otherlinks.AddItem(Link(mlist.GetBaseArchiveURL(), - -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xD654075A | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ====================================================================== The human race divides itself politically into those who want to be controlled, and those who have no such desire. -- Robert A.

Thanks! Yes, I surely didn't look there, particularly because all lists are private and not advertised. It's easier to just use the list_members than going this way ;-)

I don't think it belongs to that category, there should simply be a link on the member list page, "Show all" or so, and maybe a small box, where I can choose how many rows per page. Maybe in the same line where we have the search, just a bit to the left of the search field.
Should I add this as a wish to the bugtracker?
